[cfe-dev] ld linker error using clang analyzer checker

[Yingtong Liu via cfe-dev]

Thank you Aleksei, it worked to run the checkers.

It seems like clang can't run the checker and do the compiling at the same
time, meaning in one cmd? Just passing the -analyze option and allowing
clang to compile the file will report ld error like I said before. Is that
ture?

Best,
Yingtong
