[cfe-dev] Clang with Xcode 3.2.2?

[Ted Kremenek]

clang++ is just a symlink to clang, so that's easy to add.

Teaching Xcode 3.2.2 to use clang++ is not possible since there is no way to tell it to use clang++ for linking C++ code, although it can be done with Xcode 3.2.3 by modifying the compiler .xcspec file.  The hackiest way to get it working is to copy the .xcspec file from Xcode 4 to Xcode 3.2.3:

$ cp '/Xcode4/Library/Xcode/PrivatePlugIns/Xcode3Core.ideplugin/Contents/SharedSupport/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/Clang LLVM 1.0.xcplugin/Contents/Resources/Clang LLVM 1.0.xcspec' '/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/Clang LLVM 1.0.xcplugin/Contents/Resources/Clang LLVM 1.0.xcspec'

I recommend doing a backup of that file before you do this.

Should I just replace the clang binary that xcode 3.2.2 ships with, or does someone have an updated version of the xcplugin bundle that I can use?
