| llvm-lib - LLVM lib.exe compatible library tool | |
| =============================================== | |
| SYNOPSIS | |
| -------- | |
| **llvm-lib** [/libpath:<path>] [/out:<output>] [/llvmlibthin] | |
| [/ignore] [/machine] [/nologo] [files...] | |
| DESCRIPTION | |
| ----------- | |
| The **llvm-lib** command is intended to be a ``lib.exe`` compatible | |
| tool. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7ykb2k5f for the | |
| general description. | |
| **llvm-lib** has the following extensions: | |
| * Bitcode files in symbol tables. | |
| **llvm-lib** includes symbols from both bitcode files and regular | |
| object files in the symbol table. | |
| * Creating thin archives. | |
| The /llvmlibthin option causes **llvm-lib** to create thin archive | |
| that contain only the symbol table and the header for the various | |
| members. These files are much smaller, but are not compatible with | |
| link.exe (lld can handle them). |
