Consider the following code:
#include <windows.h>
#include <TraceLoggingActivity.h>
#include <TraceLoggingProvider.h>
#include <winmeta.h>
TRACELOGGING_DEFINE_PROVIDER(
g_hMyComponentProvider,
"SimpleTraceLoggingProvider",
// {0205c616-cf97-5c11-9756-56a2cee02ca7}
(0x0205c616,0xcf97,0x5c11,0x97,0x56,0x56,0xa2,0xce,0xe0,0x2c,0xa7));
void test()
{
TraceLoggingFunction(g_hMyComponentProvider);
}
int main()
{
TraceLoggingRegister(g_hMyComponentProvider);
test();
TraceLoggingUnregister(g_hMyComponentProvider);
}It compiles with MSVC, but clang-cl reports an error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\\include\10.0.22621.0\\shared/TraceLoggingActivity.h(377,30): note: expanded from macro '_tlgThisFunctionName'
#define _tlgThisFunctionName __FUNCTION__
^
.\tl.cpp(14,5): error: cannot initialize an array element of type 'char' with an lvalue of type 'const char[5]'
TraceLoggingFunction(g_hMyComponentProvider);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The second commit is not needed to support above code, however, during isolated tests in ms_predefined_expr.cpp
I found that MSVC accepts code with constexpr, whereas clang-cl does not.
I see that in most places PredefinedExpr is supported in constant evaluation, so I didn't wrap my code with `if(MicrosoftExt)`.
