The option mimics the behavior of the - corresponding option in clang and has the same capabilities and limitations. -* Flang also supports statically linked LLVM pass extensions. Projects can be - linked statically into `flang-new` if the cmake command includes - `-DLLVM_${NAME}_LINK_INTO_TOOLS=ON`. This behavior is also similar to clang. - ## Bug Fixes ## Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release -* The bash wrapper script, `flang`, is renamed as `flang-to-external-fc`. -* In contrast to Clang, Flang will not default to using `-fpie` when linking - executables. This is only a temporary solution and the goal is to align with - Clang in the near future. First, however, the frontend driver needs to be - extended so that it can generate position independent code (that requires - adding support for e.g. `-fpic` and `-mrelocation-model` in `flang-new - -fc1`). Once that is available, support for the `-fpie` can officially be - added and the default behaviour updated. ## New Compiler Flags -* Refined how `-f{no-}color-diagnostics` is treated to better align with Clang. - In particular, both `-fcolor-diagnostics` and `-fno-color-diagnostics` are - now available in `flang-new` (the diagnostics are formatted by default). In - the frontend driver, `flang-new -fc1`, only `-fcolor-diagnostics` is - available (by default, the diagnostics are not formatted). ## Windows Support @@ -65,5 +45,5 @@ Flang's documentation is located in the `flang/docs/` directory in the LLVM monorepo.
