Tartan: Plugging Clang Into The GNOME Stack

Written by Michael Larabel in GNOME on 29 May 2014 at 08:24 PM EDT. 3 Comments

Tartan is a new research and development project by Collabora to yield a Clang analysis plug-in for GLib and GNOME.

The Tartan plug-in loads GObject-Introspection meta-data for all encountered functions to better inform LLVM's Clang and the plug-in also takes care of detecting common coding practices for GLib. Tartan is licensed under the GPLv3+ by Collabora.

Tartan is actively developed in the open by Collabora with this LLVM/Clang analysis plug-in being hosted via Git while those GNOME developers wishing to learn more can discover it via the Collabora project page.
