clang and __float128 bug/error

Question

I\'ve successfully compiled the current 3.3 branch of clang. But then C++ compilation of any file fails with the bug/error. Can that be fixed?

In file included f         


        

Answer 1

The solution is to have this declaration. It works like a charm:

#ifdef __clang__
typedef struct { long double x, y; } __float128;
#endif

Solutions with #define don't work because of the template specification redeclaration error.

Of course this is a hack, and you must be safe. I want clang just for a few experiments, so it won't cause any troubles.
