llvm dev - Oct 2013 - [LLVMdev] Feature request for include llvm-mc in llvm.org/builds

It's already contained C/C++ compiler, but
lack of a assembler. so request for that.

Clang can be used like an assembler in the sense that if it's fed a .s
file, it will assemble it. (I noted that clang-cl doesn't do this for
.asm files, I should fix that.)

I'm not sure that we want to include llvm-mc in the installer. Is it
really intended to be used as an assembler by the end user? The help
text says "llvm machine code playground", which seems to indicate
it's
more of an internal tool.

oh, thank you very much, i just want to compile some assembly file and link
with compiled c object file

I agree. Using the clang binary is the supported public interface for
using the integrated assembler.
