## XT Toolchain
This is an the XT toolchain based on MinGW-W64. It currently supports C and C++, and provides
a variety of tools. It can be used to build both Windows and XT software, including XT OS.
This is a LLVM/Clang/LLD based mingw-w64 toolchain. It currently supports C and C++, and provides
a variety of tools including IDL, message and resource compilers. The XT Toolchain is also the
official build environment for compiling XT software, including the FerretOS. Currently, it is
targeted at Linux host only, however it should be possible to build it in MSYS2 as well.
This repository contains 2 branches:
* gnu-toolchain: This is the GCC/Binutils based mingw-w64 toolchain.
* llvm-toolchain: This is the LLVM/Clang/LLD based mingw-w64 toolchain.
Benefits of a LLVM based MinGW toolchain are:
* Single toolchain targeting all architectures (i686, x86_64, armv7 and aarch64),
* Support for generating debug info in PDB format,
* Support for targeting ARM/AARCH64 architectures and ability to produce Windows ARM binaries.
This software includes:
* CMake
* LLVM
* Make
* Mingw-w64
* Ninja
* Wine
This software is based on ["LLVM MinGW Toolchain"](https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw).
