Add castxml support

I have been trying to get to reviewing this... I have a build of https://github.com/CastXML/CastXMLSuperbuild going on my Mac right now, and will get a Windows one going too. I need that to succeed first or to install a pre-built binary of castxml before I can get this one verified on Windows. I'll keep plugging away at it in my spare time, but it might still take me a couple more weeks before I can effectively review things here.

Hi David If you're building on Windows with VS2017, you'll need to build clang 5.0. The super build uses clang 3.8. Also the latest binary of castxml is 6 months old (last time I checked). It's painful. I know! Todd On 3 Nov 2017 12:40 p.m., "David Cole" <notifications@github.com> wrote: I have been trying to get to reviewing this...

Thanks for the info. Any particular version of python I need for the underlying build of llvm to work? (It errored out with "needs python" but doesn't say anything about 2 or 3, or min version...)

I've got VS 2013 installed on most of my Windows machines. Was intending to start with that, and then work up to 2017 on one machine where I can experiment.

I used python 2.7 I also had lots of problems building llvm in VS2017. If you use BUILD_ALL the compiler keeps starting exes until the system runs out of ram. Stupid.

In that case use the superbuild to compile llvm and then get the latest castxml from git and build it against those DLLs.

OK, one of my Windows machines had python 2.7 on it already, and I got the CastXMLSuperbuild to work. Then, I got this branch of mummy to build using that castxml.exe on my VS 2013 install. Then, after "sn -Vr *,995c7fb9db2c1b44" to bypass the strong name validation, all the mummy tests passed, too! So... making progress... on my way to VS 2017 next.

You will need the latest castxml from git to build with VS2017. However building with VS2017 is not a necessity. The main aim was to eliminate gccxml in order to avoid needing VS2008 and MSVC10. If you've got it building on VS2013 without issues, that's great.
