Clang is a compiler front end for the C, C++, and Objective-C programming languages, using the Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) as its back end. The goal is to offer a replacement to the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) software stack.
To compile wine with Clang, use:
#!/bin/bash
export CC=clang
export CXX=clang
./configure
makeCurrent Status
Using Wine 1.8 and Clang 3.7.0, the Wine code was built successfully. As Clang is developing fast, it's recommended to use new releases.
