I downloaded Kepler's version of Eclipse CDT and it appears that support for compiling on OSX
is limited to the older GCC 'footprint' of OSX compiler tools. As of 10.8, Clang is the default
as well as the only path to C++11 standardization.

How difficult is it to create a Toolchain the uses Clang for parsing/indexing as well as compiling/debugging?

Thanks in advance,

There are LLVM toolchains in CDT already. I am not sure if LLVM plugin is part of Kepler CDT package though. You can try CDT nightly build from update site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/builds/luna/nightly
Note that it is update site which you install from inside eclipse via Help->Install New Software.

Thanks,
Andrew
