How do I pass arugments to the compile in Clion?
Answered
I have looked over the internet, forums and even asked chatGPT and nothing seems to work? How do I add those flags
-fsanitize=address,undefined -Wall -Werror
I originally added to the Cmakelist.text
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -Wall")
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -fsanitize=address, undefined")
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -Werror")
However, it throws an error cause undefined is there? removing undefined fixes the error but when I try to get an index out of bounds error nothing happens ;'C
Also please let me know if you would recommend other flags lets the compiler tell you something is wrong.

You need to remove the space between `address` and `undefined`.
Thank you Andy for getting back to me, I truly appreciate it.
I have followed your advice however, I get a different kind op error when I try to run my program
The error I get.
Also, I wanted to double check that I must be using Clang Cli instead of GCC, as sanitization isn't available on GCC on windows, is that. correct?
Thank you!
OK so you need to link against the `asan` library in order to find those symbols. See target_link_libraries.
Db988 please take a look at our web help article - https://www.jetbrains.com/help/clion/google-sanitizers.html. On Windows it's possible to use Google sanitizers only in the two following cases:
Okay, thank you for clarifying Anna, I am using MSVC+Clang-cl Toolchain, however I have no idea what the error above means, would you mind helping me?
Db988 please follow the corresponding instruction - https://www.jetbrains.com/help/clion/google-sanitizers.html#clang-cl-configure
Anna Falevskaya I have followed it, which meant I add these new lines into the Cmakelists.txt file
The flags work fine, they give me errors when I am not doing what I am supposed to do. However building and running the projects gives me these errors
I don't know how to fix it? Why is this more difficult than it should be: C, is there and IDE has a simple button I can click 🥺😭

1) The second point of the instruction states "Set Architecture to x86_amd64". According to the provided screenshot, you haven't done it.
2) According to
"C:\Program Files\JetBrains\CLion 2022.3.1\bin\cmake\win\x64\bin\cmake.exe" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
you still use the Debug profile, while you need to use the Release profile.
Please select the Release profile in the Run/Debug configuration switcher:
3) Remove the following line from the CMakeLists.txt
set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -fsanitize=address,undefined")4) Add the following line to the CMakeLists.txt

Thank you so much it works now but there is a problem, nothing is printing at all.
the console became read only as well?
As you can see, there is the error - "Process finished with exit code -1073741515 (0xC0000135)". The 0xc0000135 error indicates that the application failed to find a DLL file required for the program to operate correctly, so the program could not start.
There are several ways to solve the issue:
Run | Edit Configurations ..., select your run/debug configuration and try adding C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community/VC/Tools/Llvm/x64/lib/clang/15.0.1/lib/windows to thePATHenvironment variable in theEnvironment Variablesfield (likePath=xxx;$Path$, wherexxxis the path to that directory).set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "-static")to the CMakeLists.txt.Anna Falevskaya, I have followed the steps you mentioned above and, now I get a different error code.
I have applied all methods and the only one that seems to work (changing the error code) is step 2. Attached below are screenshots of me applying each method.
I have also searched the error code online and found that it could be cause by my office 360 not update, or corrupted windows files both of which I have checked and restarted my computer after. I just wanted to say I appreciate you helping me, and honestly putting the time and effort out of your day just to help me 😊
In the "Environment Variables" window the second column is called "Value". It means you need to specify only the value of the variable in this column, without Path= :
The format
Path=xxx;$Path$should be used only if you specify it right in the "Environment variables" field:Anna Falevskaya Thank you for replying,
I did just that, but I still get the same error code. I also updated my graphics driver, but it still wont work. I retried doing the same steps on a second computer with a clean install of windows but it also wont work.
Here is the error on my second computer. I know its a path issue, I even tried adding the path of that file to system variables which then became grayed out??
