tools-windows-msvc: Trying to run as instruction but compilation doesn't work

[DartViet]

I already in install clang in Msys2 and do as instruction, but so far still got this:

It's just a Hello World file.

is there anything I should add to make this works ?

Hi, did you launch the MSYS2 shell from a Visual Studio environment like the "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt"?

[DartViet]

Yeah, I got this:

This looks like one of the issues from Clang 14 documented here:
https://github.com/gnustep/tools-windows-msvc#status-and-known-issues

Please try with Clang 13 e.g. the one bundled with Visual Studio 2019.
