=head1 NAME
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
llvmc - The LLVM Compiler Driver (WIP)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<llvmc> [I<options>] I<filenames...>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<llvmc> is a configurable driver for invoking other LLVM (and non-LLVM) tools
 | 
						|
in order to compile, optimize and link software for multiple languages. For
 | 
						|
those familiar with FSF's B<gcc> tool, it is very similar.  Please note that
 | 
						|
B<llvmc> is considered an experimental tool.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 OPTIONS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Built-in Options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
LLVMC has some built-in options that can't be overridden in the
 | 
						|
configuration libraries.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-o> I<filename>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Output file name.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-x> I<language>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Specify the language of the following input files until the next B<-x>
 | 
						|
option.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-load> I<plugin_name>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Load the specified plugin DLL. Example:
 | 
						|
S<-load $LLVM_DIR/Release/lib/LLVMCSimple.so>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-v> or B<--verbose>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Enable verbose mode, i.e. print out all executed commands.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--check-graph>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Check the compilation for common errors like mismatched output/input language
 | 
						|
names, multiple default edges and cycles. Because of plugins, these checks can't
 | 
						|
be performed at compile-time. Exit with code zero if no errors were found, and
 | 
						|
return the number of found errors otherwise. Hidden option, useful for debugging
 | 
						|
LLVMC plugins.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--view-graph>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Show a graphical representation of the compilation graph and exit. Requires that
 | 
						|
you have I<dot> and I<gv> programs installed. Hidden option, useful for
 | 
						|
debugging LLVMC plugins.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--write-graph>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Write a I<compilation-graph.dot> file in the current directory with the
 | 
						|
compilation graph description in Graphviz format (identical to the file used by
 | 
						|
the B<--view-graph> option). The B<-o> option can be used to set the output file
 | 
						|
name. Hidden option, useful for debugging LLVMC plugins.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--save-temps>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Write temporary files to the current directory and do not delete them on
 | 
						|
exit. This option can also take an argument: the I<--save-temps=obj> switch will
 | 
						|
write files into the directory specified with the I<-o> option. The
 | 
						|
I<--save-temps=cwd> and I<--save-temps> switches are both synonyms for the
 | 
						|
default behaviour.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--temp-dir> I<directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Store temporary files in the given directory. This directory is deleted on exit
 | 
						|
unless I<--save-temps> is specified. If I<--save-temps=obj> is also specified,
 | 
						|
I<--temp-dir> is given the precedence.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-help>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Print a summary of command-line options and exit.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-help-hidden>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Print a summary of command-line options and exit. Print help even for
 | 
						|
options intended for developers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<--version>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Print version information and exit.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<@>I<file>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Read command-line options from I<file>. The options read are inserted
 | 
						|
in place of the original @I<file> option. If I<file> does not exist, or
 | 
						|
cannot be read, then the option will be treated literally, and not
 | 
						|
removed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Options in I<file> are separated by whitespace. A whitespace character
 | 
						|
may be included in an option by surrounding the entire option in
 | 
						|
either single or double quotes. Any character (including a backslash)
 | 
						|
may be included by prefixing the character to be included with a
 | 
						|
backslash. The file may itself contain additional @I<file> options;
 | 
						|
any such options will be processed recursively.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

=head2 Control Options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
By default, LLVMC is built with some standard configuration libraries
 | 
						|
that define the following options:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-clang>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Use Clang instead of llvm-gcc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-opt>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Enable optimization passes with B<opt>. To pass options to the B<opt> program
 | 
						|
use the B<-Wo,> option.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-I> I<directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Add a directory to the header file search path.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-L> I<directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Add I<directory> to the library search path.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-F> I<directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Add I<directory> to the framework search path.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-l>I<name>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Link in the library libI<name>.[bc | a | so].  This library should
 | 
						|
be a bitcode library.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-framework> I<name>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Link in the library libI<name>.[bc | a | so].  This library should
 | 
						|
be a bitcode library.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-emit-llvm>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Output LLVM bitcode (with B<-c>) or assembly (with B<-S>) instead of native
 | 
						|
object (or assembly).  If B<-emit-llvm> is given without either B<-c> or B<-S>
 | 
						|
it has no effect.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-Wa>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Pass options to assembler.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-Wl>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Pass options to linker.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-Wo>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Pass options to opt.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<-Wllc>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Pass options to llc (code generator).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=back
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 EXIT STATUS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If B<llvmc> succeeds, it will exit with code 0.  Otherwise, if an
 | 
						|
error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value. If one of the
 | 
						|
compilation tools returns a non-zero status, pending actions will be
 | 
						|
discarded and B<llvmc> will return the same result code as the failing
 | 
						|
compilation tool.
