Are automatic link counting (ARC) apps allowed on the App Store?

Since ARC will run in 4.0, can we now compile our applications with LLVM3 and put them in the App Store?

Or do we need to wait until Xcode 4.2 is released?

No problem sending apps with ARC support. You only need to subscribe and send the application with Xcode 4.1.

Runtime support for ARC already exists (now versions of Snow Leopard and Lion are already built-in). And since you are allowed to use any tool that you want to create your binaries, there should be no problem with binary code created using the clang / llvm3 set.

If you manage to get Xcode 4.0.2 to compile with Clang from LLVM 3, I think you could. If you use the LLVM 3 backend, Apple may or may not detect this and invalidate your binary. Of course, you cannot imagine with 4.2, since the standard procedure should only provide stable SDKs.
