如何在MSVC 2015上使用OpenMP获得c声

Question

I try to get clang 5.0.0 working for Visual Studio 2015, because I need OpenMP 3.0 features. I installed the clang compiler (not the vs2015 version which does not have any openmp support) and use cmake:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10)
project(myproject)

find_package(OpenMP)
if (OPENMP_FOUND)
    set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} ${OpenMP_C_FLAGS}")
    set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${OpenMP_CXX_FLAGS}")
endif()

include_directories("include")
add_library(libFoo STATIC Foo.cpp)

install(TARGETS Foo libFoo LIBRARY DESTINATION lib ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib)

When I now try to configure a MSVC 14 2015 Win64 build with or without toolchain LLVM-vs2014 I always get an error, that OpenMP is not found:

The C compiler identification is Clang 5.0.0
The CXX compiler identification is Clang 5.0.0

Configuring done

The used compiler seems to be the right one (Installed clang, not the Microsoft version), it autodetects the clang-cl binary, but OpenMP fails. I tried to manually specify the compilers with "specify native compilers" and get the same result. It even selects the clang-cl version instead of clang++.

Related Answer, which does not solve the problem:

• Compiling C code with openmp using clang-cl - Recent clang has libomp.lib and libiomp5.dll included

Answer 1

It is really a bit tricky and the cmake autodetection doesn't seem to work very well. What helped is

OpenMP_CXX_FLAGS="-Xclang -fopenmp"
OpenMP_C_FLAGS="-Xclang -fopenmp"

And making sure that libomp.lib is in the link libraries.

-Xclang tells the clang binary, that the following options are in clang format and not in MSVC format and -fopenmp is then just the usual OpenMP flag. Setting it any other way did not work, though.

The general pattern is: -Xclang -clangFlag1 -Xclang -clangFlag2... . Namely each Clang Style flag requires its own -Xclang .
