Yet GCC powerful, widely supported. Why clang come out?
Yet GNU powerful, widely supported.
From http://clang.llvm.org/comparison.html#gcc
GCC supports languages that clang does not aim to, such as Java, Ada, FORTRAN, etc.
GCC supports more targets than LLVM.
From http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/49906/why-is-freebsd-deprecating-gcc-in-favor-of-clang-llvm
The primary reason for switching from GCC to Clang is the incompatibility of GCC's GPL v3 license with the goals of the FreeBSD project.
Is it only License issue? Or any other issues?
