<p>Clang currently implements all of the ISO C++ 1998 standard (including
|
|
the defects addressed in the ISO C++ 2003 standard) except for 'export'
|
|
(which has been removed from the C++'0x draft).
|
|
However, the implementation of Clang C++ is still somewhat immature, with
|
|
remaining bugs that may cause compiler crashes, erroneous errors and warnings,
|
|
or miscompiled code. The <a href="http://llvm.org/bugs/">LLVM bug tracker</a>
|
|
contains a Clang C++ component that tracks known Clang C++ bugs.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="projects">Projects Building with Clang</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Clang is now capable of compiling large C++ projects, and the following
|
|
table describes various projects that we have attempted to compile with
|
|
Clang++.</p>

<p>Clang's development effort is focused primarily on fixing bugs in the current

<p>A feature is "complete" when the appropriate Clang component (Parse, AST,
|
|
Sema, CodeGen) implements the behavior described in all of the
|
|
paragraphs in the relevant C++'0x draft standard. The major
|
|
components are:</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Parse</dt>
|
|
<dd>Clang is able to parse the grammar of this feature (or the grammar
|
|
described by this section), but does not necessarily do anything with the
|
|
parsed result. Use Clang's <code>-fsyntax-only</code> option to parse C++
|
|
programs.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>AST</dt>
|
|
<dd>Clang builds an abstract syntax tree (AST) for the feature, but does not
|
|
necessarily perform any type-checking. Use Clang's <code>-ast-print</code>
|
|
option to print the resulting ASTs.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Sema</dt>
|
|
<dd>Clang parses and type-checks this feature and provides a well-formed AST
|
|
annotated with types. Use Clang's <code>-fsyntax-only</code> to type-check
|
|
code.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>CodeGen</dt>
|
|
<dd>Clang parses, type-checks, and generates code for this feature, allowing
|
|
one to compile and execute programs.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|

<p>Updates to this table are welcome! Tests for the various features are also

welcome!</p>
