5*67e74705SXin LiWelcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
6*67e74705SXin Li(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
7*67e74705SXin Licompiler infrastructure project.

9*67e74705SXin LiUnlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
10*67e74705SXin Libeyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
11*67e74705SXin Lidifferent source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.
