Allow ObjC writeback conversion in cleanup attribute type check (#195318) Prior to #164440, CheckAssignmentConstraints in the cleanup attribute handler ran before ObjC lifetime qualifiers were inferred on the variable. It compared against a type without '__strong' and accepted both 'T **' to 'T *__autoreleasing *' and 'T **' to 'T *__unsafe_unretained *'. #164440 reversed the order, so the check now runs after '__strong' is inferred and rejects both 'T *__strong *' to 'T *__autoreleasing *' and 'T *__strong *' to 'T *__unsafe_unretained *'. Fix the valid case by falling back to isObjCWritebackConversion when the assignment check fails. This re-allows the '__strong' to '__autoreleasing' writeback conversion while continuing to reject '__strong' to '__unsafe_unretained'. rdar://175133715 GitOrigin-RevId: ced50aafb99a09be40385dd35b43f1ff97ac7284
Welcome to Clang.
This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++ and Objective-C) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.
Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.
If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant websites. Here are some pointers:
