Write sample code

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@interface Test : NSObject {
	int a;
}
@property int a;
-(int)mult:(int)b;
@end

@implementation Test
@synthesize a;
-(int)mult:(int)b {
	return [self a] * b;
}
@end

int main() {
	@autoreleasepool{
		Test *test = [[Test alloc] init];
		[test setA:5];
		NSLog(@"Test.a = %d", [test a]);
		int b = 6;
		NSLog(@"b = %d", b);
		NSLog(@"Test.a * b = %d", [test mult:b]);
	}
	return 0;
}

Build with

clang-cl -I C:\Library\GNUstep\x64\Debug\include -fobjc-runtime=gnustep-2.0 -Xclang -fexceptions -Xclang -fobjc-exceptions -fblocks -Xclang -fobjc-arc -DGNUSTEP -DGNUSTEP_WITH_DLL -DGNUSTEP_RUNTIME=1 -D_NONFRAGILE_ABI=1 -D_NATIVE_OBJC_EXCEPTIONS /MDd /c main.m
clang-cl main.obj gnustep-base.lib objc.lib /MDd -o main.exe /link /LIBPATH:C:\Library\GNUstep\x64\Debug\lib

run and nothing, but simple hello world build and run fine

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    @autoreleasepool {
        NSLog(@"Hello, World!");
    }
    return 0;
}

what am I doing wrong in the console? repeated instructions one by one

alecss131 · 2023-05-07T08:18:41Z

Some changes in build (added arc) clang-cl -I C:\Library\GNUstep\x64\Debug\include -fobjc-runtime=gnustep-2.0 -Xclang -fexceptions -Xclang -fobjc-exceptions -fblocks -Xclang -fobjc-arc -DGNUSTEP -DGNUSTEP_WITH_DLL -DGNUSTEP_RUNTIME=1 -D_NONFRAGILE_ABI=1 -D_NATIVE_OBJC_EXCEPTIONS /MDd /c main.m
and use another link command lld-link main.obj gnustep-base.lib objc.lib /out:main.exe /LIBPATH:C:\Library\GNUstep\x64\Debug\lib then run fine

When you get no output it sounds like the executable might have crashed, not sure if your shell would tell you about this. Can you try printing the exit code with echo %errorlevel% after running the command?

alecss131 · 2023-05-08T19:26:34Z

>echo %errorlevel%

lld-link work without warnings and give worked exe, but interesting solve clang-cl

triplef · 2023-05-09T07:03:26Z

Ok so this error code is EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION, so looks like the app is crashing for some reason.

Can you try debugging the executable e.g. by opening and running it with Visual Studio to see where it’s crashing? (You’ll have to add C:\Library\GNUstep\x64\Debug\lib to your PATH beforehand.)

I’m guessing that somehow link.exe is not producing the right output here compared to the LLVM linker, it would be interesting to see what’s going on.

triplef closed this as not planned Won't fix, can't repro, duplicate, stale Dec 4, 2023
