This session covers: Clang in Xcode 4 (Code completion, Fix-it, Indexing and Edit-all-in-scope), Clients of LLVM(LLDB, Integrated assembler).
Using Clang Inside Xcode 4
Many contents have been covered in Session 312. Just more examples.
Benefits of LLDB Design
Higher fidelity expression parsing and evaluation
Support all language constructs
Inline function, template instantiation
Debugger gets new language features
Less platform specific knowledge in the debugger
Can pull in other compiler features: Fix-it, code completion
Assembler
LLVM Compiler 2.0 have an integrated assembler. We need not generate .s file and parse big text files. It saves much time.
Benefits of LLVM Integrated Assembler:
10% f aster builds (for debug builds of many applications)
Better error messages for inline assembly
More useful assembly dumps
