Clang
Clang is a C/C++/Objective C/CUDA compiler based on LLVM. The most recent iteration is distributed under the "Apache 2.0 License with LLVM exceptions".
Installation
Build packages with Clang
Add export CC=clang and (for C++) export CXX=clang++ to your /etc/makepkg.conf. If you are building with debug also remove -fvar-tracking-assignments from DEBUG_CFLAGS and DEBUG_CXXFLAGS as clang does not support it.
NB: For packages that specify GCC-specific build options, there may be build errors that require either editing the source package, the pkgbuild or commenting out the clang lines in makepkg.conf.
Using the Static Analyzer
To analyze a project, simply place the word scan-build in front of your build command. For example:
$ scan-build make
{{Tip|If your project is already compiled, scan-build will not rebuild and will not analyse it. To force recompilation and analysis, use -B switch:
$ scan-build make -B
It is also possible to analyze specific files:
$ scan-build gcc -c t1.c t2.c
Tips and tricks
Bash completion
In order to enable Bash completion, install bash-completion and source /usr/share/clang/bash-autocomplete.sh in a Bash startup file.
