20.1.0 native-image-maven-plugin: Error: Unable to detect supported WINDOWS native software development toolchain.

With version 20.0.0 everything worked well with windows, but now:

Error: Unable to detect supported WINDOWS native software development toolchain.

And yes, i use "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017" ...

I had the same problem and tested CCompilerInvoker, it looks like it's failing to parse the first line of cl.exe.

graal/substratevm/src/com.oracle.svm.hosted/src/com/oracle/svm/hosted/c/codegen/CCompilerInvoker.java

Line 129 in e84af13

scanner.findInLine(Pattern.quote("Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version "));

The code is.

"Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version "

but what cl.exe actually returns is

"Microsoft(R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version "

It's because of the extra space after "Microsoft".

Interesting. Can you tell me what Language/Locale settings your Windows machine uses?

[genarks]

My windows10"s display language is "Japanese", and output of cl.exe is belows.

[genarks]

Then, when I changed the display language to English, the space appeared. Wow!

I thought so. Thanks! That helps us to provide a proper fix.

In German this still occurs:
Microsoft (R) C/C++-Optimierungscompiler Version 19.16.27040 für x64

I run into the same issue today on Windows 10 Simplified-Chinese Version.

I read the merged code and I guess it just cannot work on Simplified-Chinese VS 2017...

The cl.exe version information on my console looks like below:

用于 x64 的 Microsoft (R) C/C++ 优化编译器 19.16.27040 版
版权所有(C) Microsoft Corporation。保留所有权利。

用法: cl [ 选项... ] 文件名... [ /link 链接选项... ]

You can see there's no "Optimizing Compiler" but "优化编译器". The regular expression I guess cannot cover this. I think it cannot solve the issue on Japanese and Germany Visual Studio versions...

As it's an i18n issue, I think it can only be solved with regular expressions by country code...

May I know if it's possible to do that? Otherwise, it will still impact the non-English users...

[yystju]

I did some further investigation:
After the locale in VS GUI has been changed to "English", the CLI information is still in Simplifed-Chinese on my laptop... I guess I can only change the OS Locale configuration to make the CLI information to be changed which is not a typical non-English speaker does...

May I know if it's possible to reopen this issue?

Thank you.

In my case, there is no issue with a white space, instead: DE vs EN
Microsoft (R) C/C++-Optimierungscompiler Version
Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version

I think, there is still an issue...
