Visual Studio 2019 Compiler Hangs
(金庆的专栏 2021.7)
Discovered by my colleague Shen Yichai:
Share a interesting MS Build bug:
For file a.cpp, enable optimization for Win64 or XSX.
The MSBuild always compiling without error and ending (infinite compile).
The PS5 (clang) does not have this issue.
The simplified code:
struct Tag
{
int v;
};
void Goo(Tag* r, Tag* a)
{
r->v = a->v;
}
void Foo(Tag* pos0, Tag* pos)
{
for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++)
{
if (j == 0) {
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
Goo(pos0++, pos);
Goo(pos0++, pos);
}
}
else {
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
Goo(pos0++, pos);
Goo(pos0++, pos);
}
}
}
}
int main()
{
Foo(nullptr, nullptr);
}
The default release configuration can build correctly.
But if “Properties -> C/C++ -> Optimization -> Whole Program optimization” (/GL) of file or project is changed to “No”,
the compilation will take a long time as 5 minutes.
