Detecting a VS2017 install is significantly different than prior versions. This is particularly true in the case of environment variables, which are not added globally, meaning launching cling from a random shell would fail. Additionally, prior implementation did not block clang from doing it’s own detection, which added the paths it found with the -isystem flag so that they had priority over what cling was trying to use.
By using the command-line flags, clang will know this information early, rather than having it changed from underneath.
…e paths added with -isystem.

Really hope this features. |

Would also love to see this get merged in. I'd also like to mention the vswhere tool which is the Microsoft recommended way to get information about installed Visual Studio versions. |

I think this repo is just a mirror, consider moving your PR here instead: https://github.com/root-project/root/pulls (subdirectory interpreter/cling). Thanks! |

How a modern Visual Studio is installed/detected changes quite a bit.
