< p > Amongst other things, LLVM is a toolkit for building compilers, linkers,
runtime executives, virtual machines, and other program execution related
tools. In addition to the LLVM tool set, the functionality of LLVM is
available through a set of libraries. To use LLVM as a toolkit for
constructing tools, a developer needs to understand what is contained in the
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
various libraries, what they depend on, and how to use them. Fortunately,
there is a tool, < tt > llvm-config< / tt > to aid with this. This document
describes the contents of the libraries and how to use < tt > llvm-config< / tt >
to generate command line options.

< p > If you're writing a compiler, virtual machine, or any other utility based
on LLVM, you'll need to figure out which of the many libraries files you will
need to link with to be successful. An understanding of the contents of these
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
libraries will be useful in coming up with an optimal specification for the
libraries to link with. The purpose of this document is to reduce some of
the trial and error that the author experienced in using LLVM.< / p >
2004-10-31 23:00:25 +00:00
< p > LLVM produces two types of libraries: archives (ending in < tt > .a< / tt > ) and
objects (ending in < tt > .o< / tt > ). However, both are libraries. Libraries ending
in < tt > .o< / tt > are known as re-linked libraries because they contain all the
compilation units of the library linked together as a single < tt > .o< / tt > file.
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
Furthermore, several of the libraries have < em > both< / em > forms of library. The
2004-10-31 23:00:25 +00:00
re-linked libraries are used whenever you want to include all symbols from the
library. The archive libraries are used whenever you want to only resolve
outstanding symbols at that point in the link without including everything in
the library. < / p >
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
< p > If you're using the LLVM Makefile system to link your tools,you will use
the < tt > LLVMLIBS< / tt > make variable.
2004-10-31 23:00:25 +00:00
(see the < a href = "MakefileGuide.html#LLVMLIBS" > Makefile Guide< / a > for
details). This variable specifies which LLVM libraries to link into your tool
and the order in which they will be linked. You specify re-linked libraries by
naming the library without a suffix. You specify archive libraries by naming
the library with a < tt > .a< / tt > suffix but without the < tt > lib< / tt > prefix. The
order in which the libraries appear in the < tt > LLVMLIBS< / tt > variable
definition is the order in which they will be linked. Getting this order
correct for your tool can sometimes be challenging.

< p > The < tt > llvm-config< / tt > tool is a perl script that produces on its output
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
various kinds of information. For example, the source or object directories
used to build LLVM can be accessed by passing options to < tt > llvm-config< / tt > .
For complete details on this tool, please see the
< a href = "CommandGuide/html/llvm-config.html" > manual page< / a > .< / p >
< p > To understand the relationships between libraries, the < tt > llvm-config< / tt >
can be very useful. If all you know is that you want certain libraries to
be available, you can generate the complete set of libraries to link with
using one of four options, as below:< / p >
< ol >
< li > < tt > --ldflags< / tt > . This generates the command line options necessary to
be passed to the < tt > ld< / tt > tool in order to link with LLVM. Most notably,
the < tt > -L< / tt > option is provided to specify a library search directory
2006-08-01 16:23:54 +00:00
that contains the LLVM libraries.< / li >
2006-08-01 07:32:01 +00:00
< li > < tt > --libs< / tt > . This generates command line options suitable for
use with a gcc-style linker. That is, libraries are given with a -l option
and object files are given with a full path.< / li >
< li > < tt > --libnames< / tt > . This generates a list of just the library file
names. If you know the directory in which these files reside (see --ldflags)
then you can find the libraries there.< / li >
2006-08-01 16:23:54 +00:00
< li > < tt > --libfiles< / tt > . This generates the full path names of the
LLVM library files.< / li >
