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)`.
