Visual Studio 2022 LLVM linking warning

It seems that using the LLVM toolchain without DLL runtime libraries generates some warning.

Visual Studio 2022 (17.2.4)
Note: This was working properly in Visual Studio 2019.

Repro

  1. Install Visual Studio 2022 with LLVM toolset support
  2. Create a new C++ console App Project
  3. Change the Project property General => Platform Toolset from Visual Studio 2022 to LLVM
  4. Compile the project (should be compiling fine)
  5. Change the Project property C/C++ => Code Generation => Runtime Library from Multi-threaded debug DLL to Multi-threaded debug
  6. Compile the Project (it should give you warnings)

Excerpt of the warnings: 

1>------ Build started: Project: ConsoleApplication1, Configuration: Debug x64 ------

    Hi @Sammyfreg ,

    Thanks for taking time to post this issue in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    It’s probably a potential issue or a kind of side effect. There’s a similar issue reported before, see this thread: Lots of IID-link warnings about PDB with VS 2022 17.1.0 and Clang-cl 13. Could you raise a new ticket on our Developer Community - C++ for further investigate?

    Thanks for helping us make VS better.

    Best Regards,
    Tianyu

    It does seems to be exactly the same issue, and seems like it might be fixed with LLVM 14.0.3?

    I mostly wanted the team to be aware, so I will just continue using the DLL runtime library in the meantime.

    Thank you.
