[cmake-developers] CMake, Ninja and Clang on windows?

[Jean-Michaël Celerier]

Hi,
to do this I currently use the following cross-compiling toolchain :
https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw

I was able to build Qt (except webstuff since I don't use them) and a large
CMake-based project with it for instance.
Maybe it can be useful ?

Best,
