Hi Everyone,
Just a quick update on my progress getting clang/LLVM to support
Objective-C code generation on the GNU runtime. As of the patch I
just sent for review, the following work:
- Class, protocol and category declarations / definitions.
- Message sends to classes and objects. Selectors are not yet cached,
so these are slow.
- @protocol() and @encode().
The following are still to do:
- Message sends to super.
- Constant Objective-C strings.
- ObjectiveC 2.0 stuff (including @synchronized)
I'd like to start testing compiling GNUstep with clang in the next
week or so. I seem to remember having problems persuading GNUstep
Make to use a different compiler to the default one in the past. Can
someone tell me what I need to do to try building -base (for example)
with a different compiler?
David
