Hi everyone,
I want to generate LLVM Module from a C++ file using the LibClang C++ API. I am using clang 5.0.0 compiled from source. Currently, I am using EmitLLVMOnlyAction (as in clang-interpreter) to generate the LLVM Module.
Unfortunately, I got an error “clang: Not enough positional command line arguments specified! Must specify at least 1 positional argument: See: clang -help” when I run ExecuteAction() on a CompilerInvocation object. I though this might be a missing argument problem so I printed out the driver::Command object which I used to create the CompilerInvocation object (I am using CompilerInvocation::CreateFromArgs() to create the object):
“/home/cwz/llvm-root/build-5.0.0/bin/clang++” -cc1 -triple nvptx64-nvidia-cuda -emit-llvm-bc -emit-llvm-uselists -disable-free -main-file-name dummy.cpp -mrelocation-model static -mthread-model posix -mdisable-fp-elim -fmath-errno -no-integrated-as -dwarf-column-info -debugger-tuning=gdb -coverage-notes-file /home/cwz/piko-public/pikoc/samples/rasterPipelineFixPt/dummy.gcno -resource-dir /home/cwz/llvm-root/build-5.0.0/lib/clang/5.0.0 -I /usr/local/cuda/include -I …/…/api/include -I …/…/include -I basicTypes -I EasyBMP -I sceneParser -I util -I assimp/include -I bezmesh -D PIKOC -D PIKOC_DEVICE -I /home/cwz/piko-public/pikoc/samples/rasterPipelineFixPt -I /home/cwz/llvm-root/build-5.0.0/lib/clang/5.0.0/include -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5.4.0/…/…/…/…/include/c++/5.4.0 -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5.4.0/…/…/…/…/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/c++/5.4.0 -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5.4.0/…/…/…/…/include/c++/5.4.0/backward -I /usr/local/include -I /include -I /usr/include -I /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu -fdeprecated-macro -fno-dwarf-directory-asm -fdebug-compilation-dir /home/cwz/piko-public/pikoc/samples/rasterPipelineFixPt -ferror-limit 19 -fmessage-length 204 -fobjc-runtime=gcc -fcxx-exceptions -fexceptions -fdiagnostics-show-option -o dummy.bc -x c++ dummy.cpp
The dummy.cpp is the C++ file I want to compile to LLVM Module. The argument seems legit to me and I can compile dummy.cpp using clang from command line so I think the C++ file is good.
Can anyone help me figure out why I am getting the not enogh positional argument error or point me to a better way to do this? Thanks in advance for your help.
Best wishes,
