=head1 NAME | |
llvm-config - Print LLVM compilation options | |
=head1 SYNOPSIS | |
B<llvm-config> I<option> [I<components>...] | |
=head1 DESCRIPTION | |
B<llvm-config> makes it easier to build applications that use LLVM. It can | |
print the compiler flags, linker flags and object libraries needed to link | |
against LLVM. | |
=head1 EXAMPLES | |
To link against the JIT: | |
g++ `llvm-config --cxxflags` -o HowToUseJIT.o -c HowToUseJIT.cpp | |
g++ `llvm-config --ldflags` -o HowToUseJIT HowToUseJIT.o \ | |
`llvm-config --libs engine bcreader scalaropts` | |
=head1 OPTIONS | |
=over | |
=item B<--version> | |
Print the version number of LLVM. | |
=item B<-help> | |
Print a summary of B<llvm-config> arguments. | |
=item B<--prefix> | |
Print the installation prefix for LLVM. | |
=item B<--src-root> | |
Print the source root from which LLVM was built. | |
=item B<--obj-root> | |
Print the object root used to build LLVM. | |
=item B<--bindir> | |
Print the installation directory for LLVM binaries. | |
=item B<--includedir> | |
Print the installation directory for LLVM headers. | |
=item B<--libdir> | |
Print the installation directory for LLVM libraries. | |
=item B<--cxxflags> | |
Print the C++ compiler flags needed to use LLVM headers. | |
=item B<--ldflags> | |
Print the flags needed to link against LLVM libraries. | |
=item B<--libs> | |
Print all the libraries needed to link against the specified LLVM | |
I<components>, including any dependencies. | |
=item B<--libnames> | |
Similar to B<--libs>, but prints the bare filenames of the libraries | |
without B<-l> or pathnames. Useful for linking against a not-yet-installed | |
copy of LLVM. | |
=item B<--libfiles> | |
Similar to B<--libs>, but print the full path to each library file. This is | |
useful when creating makefile dependencies, to ensure that a tool is relinked if | |
any library it uses changes. | |
=item B<--components> | |
Print all valid component names. | |
=item B<--targets-built> | |
Print the component names for all targets supported by this copy of LLVM. | |
=item B<--build-mode> | |
Print the build mode used when LLVM was built (e.g. Debug or Release) | |
=back | |
=head1 COMPONENTS | |
To print a list of all available components, run B<llvm-config | |
--components>. In most cases, components correspond directly to LLVM | |
libraries. Useful "virtual" components include: | |
=over | |
=item B<all> | |
Includes all LLVM libaries. The default if no components are specified. | |
=item B<backend> | |
Includes either a native backend or the C backend. | |
=item B<engine> | |
Includes either a native JIT or the bitcode interpreter. | |
=back | |
=head1 EXIT STATUS | |
If B<llvm-config> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error | |
occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value. | |
