LLVM Developers Discuss Enabling ClangIR Build By Default
ClangIR has been in development for a number of years now as a new intermediate representation for the Clang compiler. ClangIR makes use of MLIR and is higher-level than LLVM IR. With ClangIR able to preserve more C/C++ source semantics, its usage can lead to better diagnostics, code/static analysis, and more performance optimizations compared to everything lowered straight away from AST to LLVM IR. While not enabling its usage by default, LLVM stakehol … ⌘ Read more
