LLVM 2.3 Released

LLVM 2.3 Released

[Chris Lattner]

Hi all,

For anyone who is interested, we just released LLVM 2.3:

http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-announce/2008-June/000027.html
http://llvm.org/releases/2.3/docs/ReleaseNotes.html

It has many improvements over the 2.2 release from February, including  
better support for gfortran and Ada, better generated code, and lower  
compile time among other things.  Please see the release notes for  
details.

-Chris

Chris,
   Are there any specific plans for moving llvm-gcc from the
gcc 4.2 to the gcc 4.3 code base?

I plan to port llvm-gcc to gcc head, since I'm interested in the
Ada front-end and the Ada support in gcc-4.4 is much better than
in gcc-4.2.  However I can't say when this will happen, since I
don't have much time to spend on it.

Best wishes,

Duncan.

I don't know of any specific plans for this, though several people  
have expressed interest.  What we need is someone to step forward and  
do it.  I guess this is the classic "patches welcome" answer :).  In  
the meantime, llvm-gcc 4.2 is being well supported and is under active  
development.
