Clang is being replaced by Aro (a C compiler written from scratch in Zig)
- kkoste 3y agoIt is most definitely not.
- simon_void 3y agoshort version: Clang is only removed from the main zig executable, but it's still available via the zig build system. longer version: I think this is the relevant link here: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/16270#issuecomment-1616115039 https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/16270#issuecomment-161... as you can see the proposal "make the main zig executable no longer depend on LLVM, LLD, and Clang libraries" has "accepted" status, but that doesn't mean you can't use Clang/LLVM/LLD to compile zig/C/C++ via the zig command. In the comment the link goes directly to Andrew explains that the usecases that require Clang ... are still covered by the zig build system. (Everybody was very worried first in that GitHub issue, but was relieved after reading the clarification. To be fair, that the build system could take over this functionality wasn't known from the start, so it was a very productive discussion.)
