pygccxml on windows, include errors

[ValentinSiegert]

hi,

I tried to parse a cpp file with pygccxml on windows.

I used this from the tutorial:

xml_generator_config = parser.xml_generator_configuration_t(
     xml_generator_path="<locationPrefix>\\castxml\\bin\\castxml.exe",
     xml_generator="castxml",
     compiler_path="<locationPrefix>\\llvm\\bin\\clang-cpp.exe")

The locationPrefix is the directory of the builded CastXML Superbuild.

I also tried to use the Visual Studio cl.exe at Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\\VC\\bin\\cl.exe

Both returned me this error:

temp/hello.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'iostream' file not found
#include <iostream>
         ^~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

And yes I included the std namespace. Running CastXML via cmd returns a nicely XML after parsing the hello.cpp. So the C++ file is not the problem.

My suggestion is that pygccxml is anywhere losing the include paths of standard libs by starting the compiler via CastXML. See also here https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7f694e5a-8796-4d67-8ebe-e7936fc8dab6/cl-command-cannot-open-include-file?forum=Vsexpressvc

Am I doing wrong anywhere? Or does anyone know how to fix this?

I would love to use pygccxml and not parse the XML of CastXML on my own.
