Every clang++, clang and llvm-ar the tool spawned was a bare name on
PATH, the std module source was /usr/share/libc++/v1/std.cppm, the WASI
sysroot /usr/share/wasi-sysroot and the mingw headers
/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32, spelled out at eighteen call sites. A
toolchain installed anywhere else, which is what the Flatpak ships
under /app, had no way in.
Crafter.Build:Toolchain resolves all of it once per process:
CRAFTER_BUILD_LLVM_DIR, else a clang++ installed beside crafter-build
(<prefix>/bin, found through the same walk GetCrafterBuildHome does),
else PATH. What sits beside the compiler is used when present: its
libclang.so, its clang-c headers, its std module source, its WASI
sysroot. An explicit prefix without a clang++ is an error rather than a
fallback, for the same reason CRAFTER_BUILD_LIBCLANG was already
exclusive. CRAFTER_BUILD_LIBCXX_DIR points at a libc++ install other
than the compiler's own, and CRAFTER_MINGW_DIR now does what its help
line always claimed: it is passed as --sysroot for the mingw target.
Binaries linked by a toolchain outside /usr get an rpath to its lib
dir, since its libc++.so.1 is not on the loader's default path.
HostTarget() is the resolved clang's -print-target-triple. A clang built
without a vendor reports x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu where Arch's reports
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, so target equality that decides whether a test runs
locally and which targets a bare `test` sweeps goes through SameTarget,
which ignores the vendor field. The strings themselves are never
rewritten: clang rejects a PCM whose triple differs from the importing
unit's. The examples and README stop hardcoding the host triple; the
default is already the host.
`crafter-build --version` prints the version baked in at build time
(CRAFTER_BUILD_VERSION, else `git describe`, else 0.0.0-dev), the
compiler and the host triple, and is answered before any argument is
forwarded to project.cpp. The version is a define on the library, so
each version is its own library variant and relinks the executable and
tests once per commit.
build.sh gains a shebang and `set -eu`, honours CRAFTER_BUILD_LLVM_DIR
and CRAFTER_BUILD_VERSION, skips the glslang clone when it is already
there, and writes a fresh archive instead of appending to one that may
hold members from an older layout.

crafter-build is moving to a single Flatpak distribution, and there is
no Windows host in that picture: no build.cmd, no MSVC or mingw host
build, no DLL plus launcher. Delete every host-Windows path instead of
leaving it to rot unverified: the cmd.exe command runner and quoting,
the LOCALAPPDATA cache, the MSVC and mingw-host LoadProject variants
with their LIBCXX_DIR and CRAFTER_MINGW_DIR plumbing, the winsock port
probe, the LoadLibrary libclang loader, the console-width and isatty
shims, and the preprocessor guards around the Linux bodies.
The x86_64-w64-mingw32 cross-compile target stays. It is target logic
(output names, -femulated-tls, the libstdc++ link extras, copying a
dependency DLL next to a mingw exe, wine as the runner) and did not
depend on any of the removed code. The msvc target goes with the host
that was the only thing able to use it.
Three target-path warts fixed on the way: ExpectedOutput named a mingw
static library <name>.lib while the archive step wrote lib<name>.a, so
those libraries relinked on every run; the import lib is no longer
copied next to a mingw exe, since the dependency's own bin dir is
already on the link line; and llvm-ar now writes every archive, not
only the LTO ones, so Debug and Release archives are made the same way.
CRAFTER_API and Crafter.Build-Api.h existed only for the DLL boundary.
Nothing downstream used them, so they are removed rather than kept as
an empty macro nobody can verify.

The Linux host code paths were gated on the x86_64_pc_linux_gnu target
define alone, and LoadProject hardcoded --target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu when
compiling project.cpp and the module PCMs. Both break on musl hosts: the
glibc release launcher cannot run there at all (no glibc loader; gcompat
lacks libgcc_s and the __isoc23_* symbols), and a musl-built launcher
would still compile project.cpp for the wrong libc.
- The host gates test clang's __linux__ instead of one triple's define:
they mean "Linux host", whatever the libc (or, later, the CPU).
- LoadProject derives the host triple from HostTarget() (clang's
-print-target-triple), which is also more correct on glibc distros
whose triple isn't x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
- project.cpp / the cmake libc++ flags treat any *-linux-gnu or
*-linux-musl target as Linux.
- build.sh targets the host toolchain's triple (CRAFTER_BUILD_TARGET
overrides) and derives the per-target define from it. On Arch this is
byte-for-byte the previous behaviour.
- CI: a release-musl job bootstraps on alpine:edge, runs the tests, and
attaches crafter-build-linux-x86_64-musl-v2.tar.gz to the rolling
latest release (via the API, so the glibc assets survive). Dynamic
against musl libc++: the launcher dlopens project.so, so it cannot be
fully static.
First consumer: imsd's package CI, which cross-compiles for aarch64 from
an Alpine container.

Two rules the AST makes possible, plus the mutation analysis behind them.
const-local reports a local that is never written. It is restricted to SCALARS
— integers, bools, enums, floating types — and that restriction is what makes
the answer exact rather than a guess: a scalar has no member functions, so the
only ways to write one are assignment, ++/--, having its address taken, or
binding to a non-const reference. All four are now tracked in the walk:
- assignment and compound assignment visit their LEFT operand in a write
context, the right one normally;
- ++/-- and & write their operand;
- a call argument is checked against the callee's parameter type, so passing
to `const int&` or by value is a read while `int&` is a write;
- initialising a non-const reference writes what it binds to.
For a class type a non-const method call could mutate it, and deciding that is
the whole-program analysis clang-tidy does, so those are simply out of scope
rather than guessed at.
constexpr-constant promotes a const constant whose initialiser is made only of
literals and operators, so `const int A = 1 << 4;` qualifies and
`const int B = Compute();` does not.
On this repository const-local found 103 candidates, which was too many to be
useful, and the reason was informative: most were range-for bindings and
pointer locals. `for (T* const x : …)` and `T* const p` are not spellings
anybody writes, and the useful constness for a pointer is on the pointee, which
this rule cannot advise on. Excluding both leaves 36, all plain bool or enum
locals worth fixing — isWasm, isPe, exists, writes, isC and so on. Those 36 are
fixed in this commit; the compiler verified every one.
Both rules are report-only. The analysis is exact, but adding const is a
judgement about intent as much as mechanics, and a wrong suggestion should cost
a glance rather than a build. const-local also deliberately does not become a
transform: inserting `const` before a shared type would apply it to every
declarator in a multi-declarator statement, including any that IS written.

The rule was `\bchar\s*\*` over the text minus a substring denylist — argv,
getenv, setenv, dlerror, c_str, .data(, reinterpret_cast, extern ". Every entry
was a patch for one interop site, the list could only grow as libraries
arrived, and each entry disabled the rule for the whole LINE it appeared on.
It now walks declarations and asks the question the denylist was approximating:
whose header dictates this spelling? A declaration with C language linkage, or
one whose initialiser binds to an entity declared outside the project root, is
somebody else's API and keeps its spelling. getenv, c_str and friends are
exempt because of where they are declared, not because they are named here, so
a new external library needs no new entry.
Two bugs found while testing this, both of which had made the rule silently
pass over the entire repository:
clang_getCursorLanguage cannot be used to detect extern "C". Its default answer
is CXLanguage_C for a plain function, variable or parameter even in a C++
translation unit, so isExternC was true almost everywhere and exempted
everything. Replaced by tracking CXCursor_LinkageSpec depth during the walk,
reading the extent text to tell extern "C" from extern "C++".
Attributing any foreign reference in a subtree to the enclosing declaration was
too broad: a function that merely touched libc++ somewhere in its body would
exempt its own signature. Narrowed to initialiser contexts — a variable, field
or parameter — which is where a binding to a foreign API actually occurs.
Also: functions now carry their RESULT type rather than the whole function
type, since the parameters arrive as their own declarations and would otherwise
be reported twice. main's parameters are exempt structurally, its signature
being fixed by the language rather than chosen here.
Two sites keep an explicit lint-disable, both Crafter::Run taking main's argv
verbatim. That is two visible, reasoned suppressions in place of a denylist
that silently disabled the rule for every line mentioning one of eight tokens.
ExternalCloneDir and ExternalIncludeFlags are now exposed from :External, so a
source that includes an external dependency's headers can be parsed without
running a build to discover where they are. BuildExternal derives its own
working directory through the same function, so the two cannot drift.
Crafter.Build-Shader.cpp needed this to parse at all.
A file with no compile command — project.cpp, which LoadProject builds with its
own flags — is not a translation unit of the build graph, so AST rules skip it
the way a rule self-filters by extension. That is distinct from a file that
should have parsed and did not, which stays an error.

cmake --build was invoked with no --parallel, so the default Unix
Makefiles generator compiled external deps (DPP, msquic, glslang, …)
one translation unit at a time, leaving all but one core idle.
Pass an explicit --parallel N using hardware_concurrency() so dep
builds use the available cores. An explicit count (not a bare
--parallel) avoids an unbounded make -j fork bomb on the Makefiles
generator.

Two crafter-build invocations resolving to the same external dep both
cloned into <cache>/<name>-<hash>.tmp, corrupting each other's pack
tempfiles. Use a random per-invocation tmp suffix and treat a failed
rename whose destination now exists as the loser-of-the-race case —
discard the local clone and reuse the winner's.
cmd.exe treats single quotes as literal characters, so the existing
single-quote wrapping broke git/cmake invocations on a Windows host
("could not create leading directories of '<path>'").

WASI / wasm32 target support
- Auto-detect /usr/share/wasi-sysroot on Linux when target starts_with("wasm32")
- Skip -march/-mtune for wasm (clang rejects them)
- Apply -fno-exceptions -fno-c++-static-destructors -mllvm -wasm-enable-sjlj
-D_WASI_EMULATED_SIGNAL to wasm builds (compile + std PCM, kept in sync)
- .wasm output extension in expectedOutputFor and link command
- EnableWasiBrowserRuntime(cfg): opt-in helper that drops index.html +
runtime.js next to the .wasm; runtime.js reads window.CRAFTER_WASM_URL
set in the templated index.html so a single shim handles any output name
-r run flag in the CLI: build then exec the artifact (host targets only;
rejects libraries; auto .exe/.wasm extension handling)
CI pipeline (.forgejo/workflows/ci.yaml)
- Triggers: PR/push to master + manual dispatch
- Single arch-latest container job: install deps, bootstrap, self-rebuild,
run tests, cross-compile mingw, package both archives, upload artifacts
- Rolling 'latest' release published only on push/dispatch to master
mingw cross-compile from Linux now works end-to-end:
- ExternalDependency cache key includes target so per-target glslang builds
don't collide; CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release pinned (otherwise glslang appends
'd' to lib names and breaks linking); cross-compile cmake flags
(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Windows, CMAKE_*_COMPILER_TARGET=...)
- project.cpp accepts --target=<triple>; Linux-only -Wl,--export-dynamic
and -ldl are gated; mingw glslang skips the standalone exe (its libgcc_eh
link pulls pthread which mingw doesn't link by default)
- mingw compile uses -femulated-tls so std::__once_callable etc reference
the same emutls symbols libstdc++ provides
- mingw link auto-adds -lstdc++exp -lpthread
GetCrafterBuildHome() exposed from the Platform module; LoadProject (Linux
+ Windows) now both use it instead of duplicating the resolution.
Examples reorg: hello-world, library, with-module, wasi, tests — each with
its own README. Tests reorg: per-test directory with inner/ fixture, no
shared tests/fixtures/ tree. New Wasi test verifies .wasm magic bytes.
