Building on OS X: LLVM, flags

IngwiePhoenix commented 5 years ago

I wanted to try out c2 and went ahead and tried to build right away. Well, this is unfortunately what happened:

What I had to do beforehand was to install LLVM via Homebrew (brew install llvm). Now, what I am guessing is that there are a lot of flags missing, possibly due to llvm-config not being in my $PATH by default. I would suggest you to use the LLVM CMake files.

Could save you some troubble. :)

I'll try and see if I can find a workaround here. By looking at my CMake invocation above, you can already see a bit of that.

Well, here we are.

My workaround was to utilize environment variables, since string-substitution in the fish shell is not that great. So here is a direct copy of what I did:

Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ set LLVM_LIBS (/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-config --libs)
Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ set LLVM_CFLAGS (/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-config --cflags)
Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ set LLVM_CXXFLAGS (/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-config --cxxflags)
Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ set LLVM_LDFLAGS (/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-config --ldflags)
Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ rm -rf *
Ingwie@Ingwies-Macbook-Pro.local ~/W/g/c/out $ cmake .. -G Ninja -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang++" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/opt/llvm/include -std=c++11 $LLVM_CXXFLAGS" -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="$LLVM_LDFLAGS $LLVM_LIBS"

If you need anything tested on a Mac, feel free to ask. :)

Also: Travis offers building on OS X as well. So technically, you can use that too.
