David Millington, Embarcadero Product Manager, on August 31, 2023 presented a webinar titled “Behind the Build: RAD Studio and C++Builder 12.0” that previewed the upcoming Clang compiler upgrade and integration of Whole Tomato’s Visual Assist into the IDE.

The next release of C++Builder with Clang v15 support will include the following toolchain enhancements:
- Clang: based on Clang 15, named ‘bcc64x’
- C runtime: uses the Universal C Runtime (UCRT)
- C++ runtime: a new RTL, based on several open source areas
- STL: libc++
- Linker: LLVM lld
- Debug format: PDB (with IDE support)
- The toolchain emits COFF object files and uses the Itanium ABI and mangling
- The default language standard is C++17 and C99
