configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables about whole-program-llvm HOT 4 CLOSED

Have you set the LLVM_COMPILER environment variable? What do you see in config.log?

from whole-program-llvm.

Yea. I set LLVM_COMPILER. The config.log is as follows:

You need to set LLVM_COMPILER to the string clang or dragonegg, not the path to the executable.

from whole-program-llvm.

Got it. I set LLVM_COMPILER to the string clang. Now I can configure correctly without the same error. Thanks a lot :-)
