It is not better, and I don't suggest that. I believe all the cases should go through the LTO API preferably (or the LTO API should always use clang for codegen, but I don't believe anyone would consider that). https://reviews.llvm.org/D31114 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
