10 years ago I've got some more information about this issue, but it pertains to adding back the -g flag. I think that -g is required for the specific clang and llvm api use inside as3.cxx
Note that I have not tested that this solution works, but I have tested to make sure that it will compile and link successfully.
The first approach I took was to try and update the CMemoryLayout to best match the clang tutorial found here: Clang Tutorial 1. I wasn't complete convinced that it would fix anything, but it seemed like a good first step. This didn't fix the issue, so I moved on to a hackier approach.
When compiling the as3.cxx module, the compiler will start writing to a temporary .s file in the /tmp directory prefixed with as3-. When the compilation fails, that file is purged completely, thus the next step: sdk/usr/bin/avm2-as -o Modules/as3.o /tmp/as3-[file].s would fail because the .s file no longer existed.
In order to test adequately, I copied the breaking compile arguments so I could execute the compile directly. For my machine, it was this:
cd /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/swig/Source && PATH=/cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Progra~1/Java/jdk1.6.0_43/bin CC=clang CXX=clang++ /cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin/clang++ -cc1 -triple avm2-unknown-freebsd8 -S -disable-free -disable-llvm-verifier -main-file-name as3.cxx -mrelocation-model static -mdisable-fp-elim -fmath-errno -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -v -g -coverage-file /tmp/as3-jvXehn.s -resource-dir /cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin/../lib/clang/3.2 -dependency-file Modules/.deps/as3.Tpo -sys-header-deps -MP -MT Modules/as3.o -D HAVE_CONFIG_H -D PCRE_STATIC -D __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS -D __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS -I ../Source/Include -I ../Source/CParse -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/Include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/DOH -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/CParse -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/Preprocessor -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/Swig -I /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/Modules -I /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/swig/pcre/pcre-swig-install/include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/avm2_env/misc/ -I /cygdrive/c/cb/llvm-3.2/include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/llvm-debug/include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/llvm-3.2/tools/clang/include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/llvm-debug/tools/clang/include -I /cygdrive/c/cb/llvm-3.2/tools/clang/lib -isysroot /cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin/../.. -fmodule-cache-path /var/tmp/clang-module-cache -Wno-long-long -fdeprecated-macro -fno-dwarf-directory-asm -fdebug-compilation-dir /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/swig/Source -ferror-limit 19 -fmessage-length 0 -mstackrealign -fno-rtti -fobjc-runtime=gcc -fcxx-exceptions -fexceptions -fsjlj-exceptions -fdiagnostics-show-option -o /tmp/as3-jvXehn.s -x c++ /cygdrive/c/cb/swig-3.0.0/Source/Modules/as3.cxx The idea is that I would be able to redirect the output into the .s into a permanent file so when the temporary file was deleted, I would have a copy of the last state it was in. In my compile options, the output was listed as /tmp/as3-jvXehn.s however, during execution, the file in /tmp is actually something like /tmp/as3-jvXehn-s[random characters]. So I opened a separate cygwin window, created a separate bash script which would tail -f -n 500000 an input file and output to as3-swig_out.s. In the first cygwin console, I ran the compile, when the temporary output was created in /tmp, I copied the file name and quickly pasted it into the parameter of my bash script which started tailing the file (and also prepending up to 500,000 lines before that). Once I see the failure in my compile, I can ctrl+c the bash script to end it, and note that it output to as3-swig_out.s
Because the above is somewhat difficult to explain, here's a short video of the process: Capturing the SWIG Compile Output
Once I had this output, I attempted to run the next step on it:
/cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin/avm2-as -o as3.o as3-swig_out.sThis generated the following errors:
Error: Failed to execute compiler: D:\cygwin\tmp\alcaslQVlkzZo..as:42857
Syntax error: ')' is not allowed here
i0 = (li32(ebp+))
^
D:\cygwin\tmp\alcaslQVlkzZo..as:259053
Syntax error: Expected SCOPE_CLOSE but reached the end of the file instead.
} // function end
^
2 errors foundThe line at the first error looks like this:
Ltmp6471:;
i1 = (li32(ebp-48))
i0 = (li32(ebp+)) // <== Error Here
si32(i1, ebp-200)
si32(i0, ebp-204)
i12 = (li32(ebp-60))When I searched for uses of Ltmp6471 I could not find any, so I just added a 0 to get rid of the error: i0 = (li32(ebp+0))
The next error was a lot more obvious. The beginning of the package { had a leading { but since the generation failed prematurely, there wasn't a closing }. After line #259053 I added a closing } and re-ran avm2-as
With a successfully generated as3.o, I added this as $(BUILD)/swig/Source/Modules/as3.o, added a new Makefile build step:
swig-build2:
cd $(BUILD)/swig && PATH=$(SDK)/usr/bin:$(PATH) CC=$(FLASCC_CC) CXX=$(FLASCC_CXX) $(MAKE) && $(MAKE) installNote that this new build step just omits the clean and cp from the build-swig step.
Then I ran make swig-build2 > build/win/logs/swig.txt 2>&1. This made it all the way until the final linking step and generated the error:
Modules/swigmain.o: error: undefined reference to '_swig_as3'I returned back to the as3-swig_out.s file and searched for _swig_as3 which I found on line #70 without a global export. I added the global export from this:
;[GlobalMethod]
public function F_swig_as3():void {to this:
;[GlobalMethod][Weak][Csym("W", "_swig_as3")]
public function F_swig_as3():void {Then I used avm2-as again to rebuild as3.o and ran sdk/usr/bin/nm as3.o just to make sure that it exported the symbol correctly:
$ /cygdrive/c/cb/sdk/usr/bin/nm /cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/swig/Source/Modules/as3.o
00000000 W _swig_as3
00000000 W abort
00000000 W memcpy
00000000 W memmove
00000000 W memsetThen I replaced the broken as3.o with the new one and re-ran make swig-build2 > build/win/logs/swig.txt 2>&1.
This time, the swig build made it all the way to the end:
Installation complete
make[1]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/c/cb/build/win/swig'Like I said before, I have no idea if this is a solution at all. In fact, I'd probably guess that there's about a 90% chance it will fail. Mostly, because when the .s file dies, it still hasn't exported the // sections or // fixups which is responsible for registering the method calls (this is why _swig_as3 wasn't exported).
The real solution is fixing the SWIG code generation such that it actually compiles. This hack approach I took was simply to expose potential solutions. However, I'm out of ideas right now concerning the "correct" way to move forward. My experience with Clang, LLVM, and SWIG is limited.
