Compilation and Use
Explore the process of compiling and using C++20 modules with Microsoft Visual and Clang compilers. Understand creating module interface files, precompiled modules, and linking steps to improve code modularity and compilation workflows.

To compile the module math.ixx used by the client program client.cpp, you have to use a very recent Clang, GCC, or Microsoft compiler.
The compilation of a module is challenging. For that reason, I show as an example the compilation of the module with the Microsoft compiler and the Clang compiler.
Microsoft Visual compiler
First, I use the cl.exe 19.25.28614 for the x64 compiler.
These are the steps to compile and use the module with the Microsoft compiler. I only show the minimal command line. As promised, more ...
