Thanks for the link, but it hardly qualifies as documentation for that product. If it is like clang for Windows targeting VC++ it has a broken emulation of the non-standard VC++ preprocessor which makes it more than useless to me.
... about as useless as cl.exe (C1/C2) itself, I guess... The only usefullness of the Clang/C2 combo is the better debugging support it provides (as compared to Clang/LLVM)... Clang/C2 cannot beat Clang/LLVM, at best it's on par (but often not) and it's released version is lagging the clang/LLVM release schedule.... As/when used from the IDE, Clang/LLVM integrates and works well... makes programming in C++ on Windows much more pleasant (more comprehensible error messages, although the M$ STL doesn't always help in this regard) and often generates better code... As to docs: the exe's do have (clang) help screens, accessible from the command-line. General Clang/LLVM docs on the web-site... As to vapourware: I guess it is, since AFAIK it (Clang/C2) is still an 'experimental' project, and as such not supported (as in 'don't use in production code'). degski
