GCC、Apple LLVM 和 MSVC 编译器的不同部分的名称是什么？

Question

I'm trying to understand the names of different parts of popular compilers. The compilers I'm comparing are the GNU Compiler Collection, Apple LLVM, and Microsoft Visual C++ (are these the correct names for the compilers?) Is the following table correct:

                 GCC      Apple LLVM    MSVC

back end         GCC      LLVM          MSVC
c front end      gcc      clang         MSVC
c++ front end    g++      clang++       MSVC

Also; if I'm compiling my C++ source files with the command clang++ on a mac:

$ clang++ --version
Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin18.5.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

what's the name of the compiler I'm using? Should I say I'm using Apple Clang? Or Apple LLVM? Or something else?

This seems to answer the question:

                 GCC      Apple LLVM    MSVC

back end         GCC      LLVM          c2.dll
c front end      gcc      clang         c1.dll
c++ front end    g++      clang++       c1xx.dll
