Just before the end of the year, we have updated clang, + llvm and lldb in base to 3.5.0 release. These all contain + numerous improvements; please see the linked release notes for + more detailed information.

+ +

This is the first release that requires C++11 support to build. + At this point, FreeBSD 10.0 and later provide that support, at least + on x86.

+ +

In the near future, more components from the llvm.org will + be updated in base, with libc++ and libcompiler-rt most likely + being the first.

+ +

Thanks to Ed Maste, Roman Divacky, Andrew Turner, Justin + Hibbits and Antoine Brodin for their invaluable help with this + import.

+ + + + +

While most ports that were impacted by this update have + already been fixed, there are still a few that do not work with + the clang 3.5.0 update.

+ +

In most cases, this is due to relatively simple issues, + such as new warnings, or slightly stricter error checking + (primarily for C++ programs). Fixing those issues should not take + too much work.

+ + + +

There are still some open issues with the ARM, PowerPC + and Sparc64 architectures, and any help in this area is very much + appreciated.
