Building

To initialize the repository don't forget to execute git submodule update --init to pull the submodules.

• Windows:

1. Open the .SLN file.
2. Build the projects in __BUILD_BEFORE folder: right-click on every project > Build.
3. Press BUILD > Build Solution or Rebuild Solution.

• Linux & Mac OSX: If you want to build with LLVM, then LLVM 3.8 is required. cd rpcs3 && cmake CMakeLists.txt && make && cd ../ then run with cd bin && ./rpcs3. If you are on OSX and want to build with llvm don't forget to add -DLLVM_DIR=... (or wherever llvm brew was installed) to cmake invocation. When using GDB, configure it to ignore SIGSEGV signal (handle SIGSEGV nostop noprint).
