Hello again, Just a quick update on the state of this.
I've managed to move VersionTuple from clang to llvm. I've also created <https://reviews.llvm.org/D47889> to switch over our version handling to that class. Could I interest anyone in taking a quick look at the patch? pl On Wed, 9 May 2018 at 08:49, Pavel Labath <lab...@google.com> wrote: > > Thank you all for the feedback.
