Subject: [Rcpp-devel] Experiences with clang/llvm compilation of Rcpp-based code on Debian-based distributions

(Apologies for cross-posting but my request relates to both R/C++ and
to Debian-based platforms.)

I was recently compiling Rcpp-based code on an Ubuntu system and had a
syntax error that produced a page or two of complicated error
messages.  A developer who main platform is a Mac said that the
compilers in clang/llvm provided more focussed and comprehensible
error messages.

Has anyone tried compiling C++ code using Rcpp with clang++ on
Debian-based systems?  If so, what are your experiences?
