#49001: clang-3.7 subport forces a downgrade in the assembler on Xcode 7 ------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: howarth.at.macports@… | Owner: jeremyhu@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Port: clang-3.7 | ------------------------------------+------------------------ Comment (by howarth.at.macports@…): Replying to [comment:6 jeremyhu@…]:
cctools is installed to provide a fallback. The default (clang-based, integrated) assembler is provided by the llvm-3.7 port itself.
llvm-as isn't the same thing as /usr/bin/as under Xcode 7. The Xcode 7 clang based assembler is a drop in replacement for the legacy GNU assembler as it understands the command flags, etc. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49001#comment:7> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
