[libc++] Introduce the notion of a minimum header version (#166074) Introducing the notion of a minimum header version has multiple benefits. It allows us to merge a bunch of ABI macros into a single one. This makes configuring the library significantly easier, since, for a stable ABI, you only need to know which version you started distributing the library with, instead of checking which ABI flags have been introduced at what point. For platforms which have a moving window of the minimum version a program has been compiled against, this also makes it simple to remove symbols from the dylib when they can't be used by any program anymore.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
