What is Clang++ required to build Blaze?


Curious about how Blaze(next generation of NumPy) will be like, I tried to install with

pip install Blaze

The tarball blaze-0.1.tar.gz is downloaded, but error raised:

Clang++ is required to build Blaze.  

Questions:

What is Clang++? I assume it is not a Python package/module. It seems to be something related to C++.

What to install to meet this requirement? I am using Ubuntu 14.04.

Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • Clang++ is a C++ compiler like gcc. Try sudo apt-get install clang to install it.
