Crash with visualiser on gcc6.3 due to ROOT LLVM error

Issue #207 on hold
Laurie Nevay created an issue

Seen before, but reported by Jochem. Only a problem with latest version of GCC I believe. Noting here for future.

Error in <UnknownClass::InitInterpreter()>: LLVM SYMBOLS ARE 
EXPOSED TO CLING! This will cause problems; please hide them 
or dlopen() them after the call to TROOT::InitInterpreter()!
  • gcc 6.3

See for answer: https://root-forum.cern.ch/t/tfile-llvm-symbols-exposed/17816

    Some more info:

    • This only happens when "firing a particle" in the visualiser.
    • A workaround is to set --output=none

    Note that gcc6 is not the latest and there is also already gcc7. Did someone check that this works correctly with an older version of gcc?
