[cfe-dev] Apple's Clang

[Alexander Smirnov]

Daniel,
Thanks for fast reply!
As far as I understand the tricky part here is that if I want to build a plugin I need a set of static libraries (clangFrontend, clangDriver, clangAST, etc.), but Apple's Clang version does not include them.


I have already managed to build a pair of plugins with my own build of Clang, but don't understand how to achieve the same with Apple's Clang version.
