[Windows] Crash on include

[Thibaut Cuvelier]

I was evaluating Cxx.jl and I tried to include something basic, actually just iostream. I started a new Julia shell, imported Cxx, switched into the C++ mode, and typed the include. On execution, Julia immediately crashed; the include is not included in my history (i.e. I cannot find it back when starting Julia again, unlike the Cxx import).

julia> import Cxx

C++ > iostream

I don't have a Julia debug build, so I'm afraid I cannot provide a stack trace. Here is my Julia version:

julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 1.1.1
Commit 55e36cc308 (2019-05-16 04:10 UTC)
Platform Info:
  OS: Windows (x86_64-w64-mingw32)
  CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz
  WORD_SIZE: 64
  LIBM: libopenlibm
  LLVM: libLLVM-6.0.1 (ORCJIT, skylake)

Here is the generated build.jl:

const BASE_JULIA_BIN="C:\\Users\\Thibaut\\AppData\\Local\\Julia-1.1.1\\bin"
export BASE_JULIA_BIN

const BASE_JULIA_SRC="C:\\Users\\Thibaut\\AppData\\Local\\Julia-1.1.1\\bin\\..\\.."
export BASE_JULIA_SRC

 const IS_BINARYBUILD = true

BASE_JULIA_BIN actually corresponds to where Julia is installed, but I don't have the sources installed (and thus BASE_JULIA_SRC is completely wrong).

Is there anything I missed?

I had found this issue, but I did not see it was related. I'm closing this, thus.

Windows support is still experimental, feel free to file new issues if something goes wrong.
