Cling is an interactive C++ interpreter,
|
||
|
|
built on the top of LLVM and Clang libraries.
|
||
|
|
Its advantages over the standard interpreters are that it has command prompt
|
||
|
|
and uses just-in-time (JIT) compiler for compilation.
|
||
|
|
One of Cling's main goals is to provide contemporary, high-performance
|
||
|
|
alternative of the current C++ interpreter in the ROOT project "CINT".
|
||
|
|
The backward-compatibility with CINT is major priority during the development.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Its main advantages are:
|
||
|
|
Production-grade parser.
|
||
|
|
Just-in-time compiler (JIT).
|
||
|
|
Modular C++ API from the ground up.
|
||
|
|
Separate parser and execution engine.
|
||
|
|
C++ 11 support through clang.
