I'm using command like this:

$ clang++ prg.cpp

My Clang is built from sources. What libraries it needs to use colors automatically? Or may be there is some option that I can specify for configure?

Are you invoking Clang with "clang foo.cc" or "clang -cc1 foo.cc"? The first should detect if you have a color capable terminal and automatically turn on color diagnostics while the second needs the flag explicitly. The other possibility is that the Clang you are using was compiled with the libraries needed to detect a color terminal, and defaults to no color.

Hello, all.

Why doesn't clang use colors for diagnostics by default?
My environment:

$ cat /etc/*-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago)

$ echo $TERM
xterm

Doc here
http://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#formatting-of-diagnostics
says: "This option, which defaults to on when a color-capable terminal is
detected". Isn't xterm "a color-capable terminal"?

If I give -fcolor-diagnostics explicitly, all works as expected. But why
must I do that? GCC uses colors by default.
