It works fine for me (after r179943), using icecc+ccache+clang. 1068585 2 berto 2015-02-12 03:51:55 -0800 Yes, there are workarounds. Also e.g. $ ln -s /usr/bin/icecc /tmp/clang $ ln -s /usr/bin/icecc /tmp/clang++ $ CC=/tmp/clang CXX=/tmp/clang++ Tools/Scripts/build-webkit ... I opened the bug in case there was an easier way to do it, before we switched to cmake a simple CC="icecc clang" was enough. 1068627 3 clopez 2015-02-12 08:53:52 -0800 (In reply to comment #2) > Yes, there are workarounds.

I guess the problem is with invoking the CC compiler as a program with arguments (program=icecc, argument=clang) rather than just a program (by doing the trick of using symlinks and changing the PATH). I don't know if this is a bug of WebKitGTK+ or is in CMake itself. I always used the symlink+path way. Also, if you want to use icecc+ccache together, I don't see how that will work with the CC="icecc clang" method. 1068855 4 berto 2015-02-12 23:05:16 -0800 (In reply to comment #3) > I guess the problem is with invoking the CC compiler as a program > with arguments (program=icecc, argument=clang) rather than just a > program Exactly. > Also, if you want to use icecc+ccache together, I don't see how that > will work with the CC="icecc clang" method. I didn't want to use ccache myself, but it would be possible with the same method using the CCACHE_PREFIX variable.
