clang++ 2.9, 3.0 and 3.1 do not link with the C++ standard library

Reported by: roland@… Owned by: jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)

Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: clang-2.9, clang-3.0, clang-3.1

Description

The clang++-mp-2.9 compiler from the MacPorts (from port clang-2.9) does not seem to link C++ code correctly. In particular, the linker does not link with the C++ standard library.

For instance, compiling a very simple program does not work, since the linker is unable to find iostream classes and other required routines from the C++ standard library:

% cat a.cc
#include <iostream>

int
main ()
{
  std::cout << "Hello World!" << std::endl;
}
% clang++-mp-2.9 a.cc

My environment is Mac OS X 10.6 with the latest MacPorts.

I have the same problem with clang++-mp-3.0 (port clang-3.0) and clang++-mp-3.0 (port clang-3.0).

Note that the old clang++ compiler from port clang (version 2.8) that is still installed on my system does not have this problem:

Here, the compiler actually links with libstdc++.

Interestingly, using the file directly instead of the symlink works. eg:

$ /opt/local/libexec/llvm-2.9/bin/clang++ test.cc

I have just upgraded clang-2.9, clang-3.0 and clang-3.1 to their latest versions. There is another problem regarding the linker in all three ports:

% clang++-mp-2.9 a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
% clang++-mp-3.0 a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
% clang++-mp-3.1 a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Using the clang++ binary from the /opt/local/libexec/llvm-x.y/bin/ directory produces the same error:

% /opt/local/libexec/llvm-2.9/bin/clang++ a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
% /opt/local/libexec/llvm-3.0/bin/clang++ a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
% /opt/local/libexec/llvm-3.1/bin/clang++ a.cc
ld: unknown option: -demangle
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Here is the output of clang++-mp-2.9 with the -v option:

(clang++-mp-3.0 and clang++-mp-3.1 show similar error messages.)

That is a different issue, so file a new bug report. This one is fixed.
