Hi Mo and Christian,
Side question: How would this affect ccache, if at all? Does it need to be mare aware of hipcxx?I forgot to reply after the first time reading the email. Actually I have the same question about ccache interaction.
I believe the ccache utility would be unaffected. The code for
guessing the compiler will follow symlinks if it cannot guess the
compiler based on the original name. In that respect, this is no
different from /usr/bin/cc or /usr/bin/c++ [1].
Sincerely,
Cory Bloor
