Re: MSVC is broken for x86 builds on x64 hosts

Out of curiosity, can the compilers be configured correctly directly from
the command line?

 

For example for 12 and 14.0:

      @rem 64-bit host, 32-bit target

      call YOURPATH-TO-MSVC\VC\vcvarsall x86

 

I once had a problem setting up cross-compiling on x86 to x64 where the
MSVS/MSVC install did not correctly populate the batch file for setting up
the x64 (vcvarsx86_amd64.bat) environment.  This was causing other tools to
fail in a mysterious and hard to diagnose manner.  I don't exactly remember,
but I think there were environment variables that were not configured
correctly that caused downstream and calling batch files and scripts to
result in errors.

 

This happened for MSVC 2005 where the x64 bit compiler was added long after
the x86 compiler was installed.
