<p><a href="http://www.cmake.org/">CMake</a> is a cross-platform
|
|
|
|
|
build-generator tool. CMake does not build the project, it generates
|
|
|
|
|
the files needed by your build tool (GNU make, Visual Studio, etc) for
|
|
|
|
|
building LLVM.</p>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
<p>If you are really anxious about getting a functional LLVM build,
|
|
|
|
|
go to the <a href="#quickstart">Quick start</a> section. If you
|
|
|
|
|
are a CMake novice, start on <a href="#usage">Basic CMake
|
|
|
|
|
usage</a> and then go back to the <a href="#quickstart">Quick
|
|
|
|
|
start</a> once you know what you are
|
|
|
|
|
doing. The <a href="#options">Options and variables</a> section
|
|
|
|
|
is a reference for customizing your build. If you already have
|
|
|
|
|
experience with CMake, this is the recommended starting point.

<li><p>Open a shell. Your development tools must be reachable from this

|
|
|
|
|
<li><p>Execute this command on the shell
|
|
|
|
|
replacing <i>path/to/llvm/source/root</i> with the path to the
|
|
|
|
|
root of your LLVM source tree:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|

|
<p><tt>cmake path/to/llvm/source/root</tt></p>

|
|
<p>CMake will detect your development environment, perform a
|
|
|
|
|
series of test and generate the files required for building
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM. CMake will use default values for all build
|
|
|
|
|
parameters. See the <a href="#options">Options and variables</a>
|
|
|
|
|
section for fine-tuning your build</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This can fail if CMake can't detect your toolset, or if it
|
|
|
|
|
thinks that the environment is not sane enough. On this case
|
|
|
|
|
make sure that the toolset that you intend to use is the only
|
|
|
|
|
one reachable from the shell and that the shell itself is the
|
|
|
|
|
correct one for you development environment. CMake will refuse
|
|
|
|
|
to build MinGW makefiles if you have a POSIX shell reachable
|
|
|
|
|
through the PATH environment variable, for instance. You can
|
|
|
|
|
force CMake to use a given build tool, see
|

the <a href="#usage">Usage</a> section.</p>

<p>This section explains basic aspects of CMake, mostly for
|
|
|
|
|
explaining those options which you may need on your day-to-day
|
|
|
|
|
usage.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>CMake comes with extensive documentation in the form of html
|
|
|
|
|
files and on the cmake executable itself. Execute <i>cmake
|
|
|
|
|
--help</i> for further help options.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>CMake requires to know for which build tool it shall generate
|
|
|
|
|
files (GNU make, Visual Studio, Xcode, etc). If not specified on
|
|
|
|
|
the command line, it tries to guess it based on you
|
|
|
|
|
environment. Once identified the build tool, CMake uses the
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding <i>Generator</i> for creating files for your build
|
|
|
|
|
tool. You can explicitly specify the generator with the command
|
|
|
|
|
line option <i>-G "Name of the generator"</i>. For knowing the
|
|
|
|
|
available generators on your platform, execute</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<p><tt>cmake --help</tt></p>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This will list the generator's names at the end of the help
|
|
|
|
|
text. Generator's names are case-sensitive. Example:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<p><tt>cmake -G "Visual Studio 8 2005" path/to/llvm/source/root</tt></p>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>For a given development platform there can be more than one
|
|
|
|
|
adequate generator. If you use Visual Studio "NMake Makefiles"
|
|
|
|
|
is a generator you can use for building with NMake. By default,
|
|
|
|
|
CMake chooses the more specific generator supported by your
|
|
|
|
|
development environment. If you want an alternative generator,
|
|
|
|
|
you must tell this to CMake with the <i>-G</i> option.</p>

<p>The most difficult part of adding LLVM to the build of a project
|
|
|
|
|
is to determine the set of LLVM libraries corresponding to the set
|
|
|
|
|
of required LLVM features. What follows is an example of how to
|
|
|
|
|
obtain this information:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<b># A convenience variable:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
set(LLVM_ROOT "" CACHE PATH "Root of LLVM install.")
|
|
|
|
|
<b># A bit of a sanity check:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
if( NOT EXISTS ${LLVM_ROOT}/include/llvm )
|
|
|
|
|
message(FATAL_ERROR "LLVM_ROOT (${LLVM_ROOT}) is not a valid LLVM install")
|
|
|
|
|
endif()
|
|
|
|
|
<b># We incorporate the CMake features provided by LLVM:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "${LLVM_ROOT}/share/llvm/cmake")
|
|
|
|
|
include(LLVM)
|
|
|
|
|
<b># Now set the header and library paths:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
include_directories( ${LLVM_ROOT}/include )
|
|
|
|
|
link_directories( ${LLVM_ROOT}/lib )
|
|
|
|
|
<b># Let's suppose we want to build a JIT compiler with support for
|
|
|
|
|
# binary code (no interpreter):</b>
|
|
|
|
|
llvm_map_components_to_libraries(REQ_LLVM_LIBRARIES jit native)
|
|
|
|
|
<b># Finally, we link the LLVM libraries to our executable:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
target_link_libraries(mycompiler ${REQ_LLVM_LIBRARIES})
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This assumes that LLVM_ROOT points to an install of LLVM. The
|
|
|
|
|
procedure works too for uninstalled builds although we need to take
|
|
|
|
|
care to add an <i>include_directories</i> for the location of the
|
|
|
|
|
headers on the LLVM source directory (if we are building
|
|
|
|
|
out-of-source.)</p>
