Did you report the issue? Should be simple enough to fix. I seriously doubt it's a good idea to use CCACHE_COMPILER - there's no way meson (or autoconf or ..) can rely on the results of compiler tests that way, since CCACHE_COMPILER can change at any time. > As I recall, CC='ccache cl.exe' didn't work because it didn't attempt to do > any > argument splitting. I tried it, and it works for me when building with ninja (compiling with cl.exe). I assume you are using msbuild? A cached build takes 21s on my VM, fwiw, vs 199s uncached. Greetings, Andres Freund
