py-msbuild-extractor
A pip launcher (Windows and Linux) that bundles a self-contained build of
microsoft/msbuild-extractor-sample
and exposes it as the py-msbuild-extractor command. It generates
compile_commands.json from Visual C++ MSBuild projects (.vcxproj, .sln,
.slnx).
pip install py-msbuild-extractor
py-msbuild-extractor --help
This wheel only redistributes the launcher. On Windows, the machine
running it must have Visual Studio Build Tools with the C++ (Desktop
development with C++) workload installed — the tool shells out to
vswhere.exe, resolves VCTargetsPath/VCToolsInstallDir, and invokes
cl.exe. On Linux, it needs a system-wide .NET SDK and an MSVC toolchain
set up via tools/setup-linux-toolchain.sh (see the project repository for
details).
See the project repository for full documentation, the pinned upstream commit, and how it is built.
