Expressive Diagnostics

The design of the Clang driver (one of the LLVM front_end libraries) provies more detailed diagnostic information.

Clang: a C language front-end for LLVM

-

About

-

The goal of the Clang project is to create a new BSD Licensed C, C++, & ObjC front-end for the LLVM compiler. -

-

In the context of this website, the term Clang actually refers to two things: -

1) A "code name" for the LLVM compiler front-end. -

2) A specific library in the LLVM front-end -- in particular the "driver" that makes all the other libraries work together. -

-

The developers of Clang include contributers from Apple and numerous other volunteers. -

Why?

-

The development of a new front-end was started out of a need -- a need for a compiler that allows better diagnostics, better integration with IDEs, a license that is compatible with commercial products, and a compiler that is easier to develop and maintain. All of these were motiviations for starting work on a new C/C++/ObjC front-end that could meet these needs. -

An excellent introduction to Clang can be found in the following video lectures: -

-

Features/Goals

- Some of the goals for the project include the following: -
    -
  • Unified parser for C-based languages -
  • Language conformance with C99, ObjC, C++ -
  • Real-world, production quality compiler -
  • GCC compatibility -
  • Library based architecture with finely crafted C++ API's -
  • High performance -
  • Better integration with IDEs -
  • Expressive diagnostics -
  • BSD License -
- Of course this is only a rough outline of the goals and features of Clang. To get a true sense of what the new LLVM front-end is all about, as well as why you might want to considering using it, see the Features section. -

- If you are a compiler developer and want to try out Clang, then build instructions are available on the Get Involved page. -

    +
  • Real-world, production quality compiler.

  • A single unified parser for C/ObjC/C++

  • Language conformance with C, ObjC, C++ (including variants, like C90, C99, etc)
