Building the Analyzer from Source

Clang Frontend
#1

Hi all,

I'm trying to build the static analyzer from source. It says here:

<http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/installation#OtherPlatforms>

"the resultant clang binary will be in $(OBJDIR)/Debug+Asserts". That
seems wrong, it should be $(OBJDIR)/Debug+Asserts/bin AFAICT.

I suspect the next paragraph is out of date too. I cannot seem to find
where the scan-build and scan-view programs are built to. Must one use
autotools or CMake or either for them to be built?

Thanks,

True, that probably needs to be fixed.

Nope. They're not built at all. That's because they're Perl scripts, so
they don't need to be built. The scripts are in
<clang>/tools/scan-{build,view}.
