`mbstate_t` needs to be visible to libcpp, even when it is not providing wide character functionality (i.e. `_LIBCPP_HAS_WIDE_CHARACTERS` is turned off) and thus not using any of the C library's wide character functions. There are C libraries (such as newlib-nano/nanolib/picolibc) which do provide their definition of `mbstate_t` in `<wchar.h>` even though they do not come with wide character functions. Since there is a way to conditionally include the C library's `<wchar.h>` only if it exists, we should rely on the fact that if it exists, it will provide `mbstate_t`. Removing this guard will allow using libc++ on top of newlib-nano/picolibc while not breaking the cases where it is used on top of a C library which doesn't provide `<wchar.h>` (since it would then still go look for `<uchar.h>` or error out).
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
