Retrieving Dependencies on Windows with msvc

[Nov0cx]

MSVC doesn't understand command with a leading '-', there the comment have to start with a '/'.

cl : Commandline warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option "-std=c++17".
The contents of <filesystem> are available only with C++17 or later.
external/bzlws/generators/cpp/cpp_generator.cc(10): 

Maybe you can fix this with an option for windows.

The select here isn't being hit in your configuration. https://github.com/zaucy/bzlws/blob/main/internal/copts.bzl#L6.

Are you using bazels platforms? Most of my projects are using platforms and on windows using msvc I'm getting /std:c++17.
