So<p>MSVC use PDB format which is undocumented.<p>LLVM want to implement PDB.<p>LLVM asks MS for help<p>MS disclose the portion of the MSVC code which deal with PDB<p>MS GitHub even says &quot;Source code is the ultimate documentation :-)&quot;<p>I think even the MS doesn&#x27;t have formal documentation for PDB format.

This is very exciting. The blog post mentions cross-compilation, and being able to use lld should also result in faster link times and the ability to enable Clang features like CFI.<p>Congratulations on this milestone!

The whole idea to <i>just</i> change the compiler on Windows is exciting. The packages on Windows provide drop-in integration with VisualStudio.

Hopefully we will see all llvm projects ported to windows. And hopefully we can have a full toolchain, compatible&#x2F;replacing Ms tools.

What about exceptions on Windows? Does LLVM support that yet?
