<< Plus we talk about OpenMandriva switching to the Clang compiler [...] >>
<< OpenMandriva may have become the first Linux distribution to switch
to using Clang as the default compiler to build its thousands of open
source packages. To date, Linux distributions have defaulted to using
the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) to build software. Clang offers a
number of advantages in error reporting, has a more liberal license
and can provide performance gains in some situations. This has made
Clang increasingly popular among BSD developers and, it appears, a few
Linux developers too. A blog post on the OpenMandriva website states:
"OpenMandriva is currently the only distribution that uses Clang as
[the] main compiler. Though there is no clear difference between both
compilers, that proves, at least, that we are not wrong using it." >>
