Compiling llvm/clang/compiler-rt 3.2

Hi cfe-dev,

I’m currently trying to compile llvm, clang and compiler-rt from the official 3.2 tag with gcc4.7.0 but unfortunately I’m getting the compiler error detailed below. Is this something anyone has come across before?

Thanks,
Graeme

StringRef URL(“”);
#endif

// If the SVN_REPOSITORY is empty, try to use the SVN keyword. This helps us
// pick up a tag in an SVN export, for example.
static StringRef SVNRepository(“$URL: http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/tags/RELEASE_32/final/lib/Basic/Version.cpp $”);
if (URL.empty()) {
URL = SVNRepository.slice(SVNRepository.find(‘:’),
SVNRepository.find(“/lib/Basic”));
}

// Strip off version from a build from an integration branch.
URL = URL.slice(0, URL.find(“/src/tools/clang”));

// Trim path prefix off, assuming path came from standard cfe path.
size_t Start = URL.find(“cfe/”);
if (Start != StringRef::npos)
URL = URL.substr(Start + 4);

return URL;
#endif
}

Looks like a vexing parse problem. Try changing ‘StringRef URL(SVN_REPOSITORY)’ to ‘StringRef URL = SVN_REPOSITORY’.

If that works, please let us know so we can fix it for 3.3!

Looks like a vexing parse problem. Try changing ‘StringRef URL(SVN_REPOSITORY)’ to ‘StringRef URL = SVN_REPOSITORY’.

That will just break in a different way. The problem seems to be that SVN_REPOSITORY is defined but expands to no tokens.

It does indeed look to be a problem with these variables being defined but with no value. The issue also effects the SVN_REVISION, LLVM_REVISION and LLVM_REPOSITORY variables.

I don’t have these explicitly set so I’m guessing the build procedure sets them. For now I’ve worked around by using an empty string instead.
