NAME

       llvm-gcc - LLVM C front-end

SYNOPSIS

       llvm-gcc [options] filename

DESCRIPTION

       The llvm-gcc command is the LLVM C front end.  It is a modified version
       of gcc that compiles C/ObjC programs into native objects, LLVM bitcode
       or LLVM assembly language, depending upon the options.

       By default, llvm-gcc compiles to native objects just like GCC does. If
       the -emit-llvm and -c options are given then it will generate LLVM
       bitcode files instead. If -emit-llvm and -S are given, then it will
       generate LLVM assembly.

       Being derived from the GNU Compiler Collection, llvm-gcc has many of
       gcc's features and accepts most of gcc's options.  It handles a number
       of gcc's extensions to the C programming language.  See the gcc
       documentation for details.

OPTIONS

       --help
           Print a summary of command line options.

       -o filename
           Specify the output file to be filename.

       -I directory
           Add a directory to the header file search path.  This option can be
           repeated.

       -L directory
           Add directory to the library search path.  This option can be
           repeated.

       -lname
           Link in the library libname.[bc | a | so].  This library should be
           a bitcode library.

       -emit-llvm
           Make the output be LLVM bitcode (with -c) or assembly (with -s)
           instead of native object (or assembly).  If -emit-llvm is given
           without either -c or -S it has no effect.

EXIT STATUS

       If llvm-gcc succeeds, it will exit with 0.  Otherwise, if an error
       occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
