libcxx-dev Digest, Vol 26, Issue 16

I have tried the instructions on the
https://releases.llvm.org/11.0.0/projects/libcxx/docs/BuildingLibcxx.html page.
I followed the instructions in the first gray instruction area. The steps through the cmake instruction seem to work reasonably. But the “make # Build” instruction gives an error message saying “make: *** No rule to make target ‘#’. Stop.” Assuming the ‘#’ is a comment mark in the example, I tried “make” without the “# Build” and got the error message saying “make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.”

I have attached the log.txt file of the cmake instruction.

Thanks for any help.

Looks like you are building on Windows for Visual Studio. Unless you tell cmake to generate for ninja or make, it will generate for msbuild. So either you need to change your generator to make, or use msbuild (or visual studio) to build.
