clang++

Compiles C++ source files. Part of LLVM. More information: https://clang.llvm.org.
  • Compile a source code file into an executable binary:
    clang++ {{path/to/source.cpp}} -o {{path/to/output_executable}}
  • Display (almost) all errors and warnings:
    clang++ {{path/to/source.cpp}} -Wall -o {{path/to/output_executable}}
  • Choose a language standard to compile with:
    clang++ {{path/to/source.cpp}} -std={{c++20}} -o {{path/to/output_executable}}
  • Include libraries located at a different path than the source file:
    clang++ {{path/to/source.cpp}} -o {{path/to/output_executable}} -I{{path/to/header_path}} -L{{path/to/library_path}} -l{{path/to/library_name}}
  • Compile source code into LLVM Intermediate Representation (IR):
    clang++ -S -emit-llvm {{path/to/source.cpp}} -o {{path/to/output.ll}}
