@ -76,21 +76,25 @@ This produces a `zig2` executable in the current working directory. This is a
[without LLVM extensions](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/16270), and is
therefore lacking these features:
- Release mode optimizations
- aarch64 machine code backend
- `@cImport` / `zig translate-c`
- Ability to compile C files
- Ability to compile assembly files
- [aarch64 machine code backend](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/21172)
- [@cImport](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/20630)
- [zig translate-c](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/20875)
- [Ability to compile assembly files](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/21169)
- [Some ELF linking features](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17749)
- [Most COFF/PE linking features](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17751)
- [Some WebAssembly linking features](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17750)
- [Ability to create import libs from def files](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17807)
- [Automatic importlib file generation for Windows DLLs](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/17753)
- [Ability to create static archives from object files](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/9828)
- Ability to compile C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ files
- Ability to compile C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ files
However, a compiler built this way does provide a C backend, which may be
useful for creating system packages of Zig projects using the system C
toolchain. In such case, LLVM is not needed!
toolchain. **In this case, LLVM is not needed!**
Furthermore, a compiler built this way provides an LLVM backend that produces
bitcode files, which may be compiled into object files via a system Clang
package. This can be used to produce system packages of Zig applications
without the Zig package dependency on LLVM.
