Creating a LLVM Project from the Sample project

Project Infrastructure LLVM Dev List Archives

Hello,

I have followed the steps described in http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html.
It seems there is a problem with the AutoRegen.sh script.
In order to get the whole sample project working in a directory
outside of llvm directory structure, I had to replace lines 22 and 23
by :

  llvm_src_root=../llvm
  llvm_obj_root=../llvm

I am not a configuration specialist, so I can't tell if this is a good
fix, but it works.
I should also add that in order to fully customize the sample project,
there is some additional work to rename existing directories and their
references in configure.ac. These additional steps are not described
in the "Creating an LLVM Project" document.

Best,
Cam

I'm not sure anyone actually uses that -- the bug about it seems to be
ignored: http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1220

Perhaps if you add your findings to it it might get noticed?

Thanks Scott, I think it was the same bug.
I am using Xcode now, though :frowning:
For those who are interested, here is a Xcode build configuration file
for those who would like to build their project against LLVM. It was
inspired from what I found in clang.
