Does anyone have experience with LLVM, llvm-gcc, or Clang?
The whole idea behind llvm seems very intriguing to me and I’m interested in seeing how it performs. I just don’t want to dump a whole lot of time into trying the tools out if the tools are not ready for production.
If you have experience with the tools, what do you think of them? What major limitations have you encountered? What are the greatest benefits?
Many thanks!
I’ve had an initial play around with LLVM and working through this tutorial left me very very excited about it’s potential; the idea that I can use it to build a JIT into an app with relative ease has me stoked.
I haven’t gone deep enough to be able to offer any kind of useful opinion on it’s limitations, stability, performance and suchlike. I understand that it’s good on all counts but that’s purely hearsay.
