Visual Studio 2010 #18
Description
I am trying to run clcache with Visual Studio 2010.
I have tried putting it inthe PATH of my user, of the whole system and even replacing my cl.exe with this launcher and speicyfing CLCACHE_CL to the correct compiler (renamed to cl.real.exe). My code let me specify where to find clcache.py, plus I am having problems with py2exe and my windows is x86_64.
In the current setup I have these variable set
CLCACHE_DIR = C:\clcache
CLCACHE_CL = C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\cl.real.exe
CLCACHE_HARDLINK = 1
CLCACHE_LOG = 1
CLCACHE_PATH = C:\sources\clcache
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
{
// Checking standard variables
char *CLCACHE_PATH = getenv("CLCACHE_PATH");
std::string cmd = "python ";
if (CLCACHE_PATH)
{
cmd += CLCACHE_PATH;
cmd += '/';
}
cmd += "clcache.py ";
for ( int i = 1; i < argc; ++i )
{
cmd += ' ';
cmd += argv[i];
}
return system(cmd.c_str());
}
with the PATH modifications it wasn't being called, with this launcher I can manage to make it work if I manually call it, but visual studio will return me
The system cannot execute the specified program.
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Platforms\Win32\Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.Targets(62,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code 1.
How can I setup Visual Studio 2010 to actually use clcache?

What I've found works is this:
rename cl.exe to cl_real.exe
rename cl.exe.config to cl_real.exe.config
copy clcache.exe to cl.exe
then set CLCACHE_CL to the full path to cl_real.exe
Whatever you do, make sure that the real compiler's .config file is appropriately named

I already renamed the configuration file correctly.. I tried now switching from cl.real.exe to cl_real.exe .. but it doesn't work yet, I still have the same issue
mellon85 commentedon Oct 16, 2013
Your cl.exe is the generated py2exe file?
mellon85 commentedon Oct 16, 2013
Ok, I managed to install python 32bit and py2exe 32 bit and it's being called. Unfortunately I am getting these erors
1>c:\sources\development\main\testmain.cpp : fatal error C1033: cannot open program database 'c:\sources\development\main\testmain"debug\vc100.pdb"'
and
2>cl : Command line warning D9028: minimal rebuild failure, reverting to normal build
2> stdafx.cpp
2>c1xx : fatal error C1083: Cannot open compiler intermediate file: '"C:\sources\Development\Main\Report\Debug\Win32\ReporD.pch"': Invalid argument

Ah right, AIUI, clcache doens't support pre-compiled headers or external pdb files, but it should handle it more cleanly.
what do you see if you build your project under msbuild?
mellon85 commentedon Oct 16, 2013
I can't test it right now. I will see on Monday :-)
Thanks for the support.

Sorry I was currently busy :)
Anyhow, I wrote a pull request to ignore /Yu and /Yc and remove them from
the command line.
I still have the issue of the .pdb file though

I was also having problems with py2exe, so I now use the following clcache.bat as my CXX
Can this be closed? I guess it is getting too wide now.
Mention how to integrate clcache with Visual Studio
NicolasDorier commentedon Jun 29, 2019
@frerich I think your instructions are needlessly complicated for integration with visual studio.
You just have to integrate
In you project file.
