Unable to build the project

Hi

I am unable to build the project

I also encountered the same problem and I solved it by the following method. You should compile it as stated in https://github.com/microsoft/BitNet/issues/73#issuecomment-2430369340

Before running python setup_env.py in "3. Build the project", you need to run the following code for compilation first.

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++
cmake .. --build build --parallel 4
