<p>LLVM sets certain default configure options to make sure our developers don't
|
|
break things for constrained platforms. These settings are not optimal for most
|
|
desktop systems, and we hope that packagers (e.g., Redhat, Debian, MacPorts,
|
|
etc.) will tweak them. This document lists settings we suggest you tweak.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>LLVM's API changes with each release, so users are likely to want, for
|
|
example, both LLVM-2.6 and LLVM-2.7 installed at the same time to support apps
|
|
developed against each.

<p>LLVM runs much more quickly when it's optimized and assertions are removed.
|
|
However, such a build is currently incompatible with users who build without
|
|
defining NDEBUG, and the lack of assertions makes it hard to debug problems in
|
|
user code. We recommend allowing users to install both optimized and debug
|
|
versions of LLVM in parallel. The following configure flags are relevant:

defined. Changes the LLVM ABI. Also available by setting
|
|
<tt>DISABLE_ASSERTIONS=0|1</tt> in <tt>make</tt>'s environment. This defaults
|
|
to enabled regardless of the optimization setting, but it slows things
|
|
down.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><tt>--enable-debug-symbols</tt></dt><dd>Builds LLVM with <tt>-g</tt>.
|
|
Also available by setting <tt>DEBUG_SYMBOLS=0|1</tt> in <tt>make</tt>'s
|
|
environment. This defaults to disabled when optimizing, so you should turn it
|
|
back on to let users debug their programs.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><tt>--enable-optimized</tt></dt><dd>(For svn checkouts) Builds LLVM with
|
|
<tt>-O2</tt> and, by default, turns off debug symbols. Also available by
|
|
setting <tt>ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=0|1</tt> in <tt>make</tt>'s environment. This
|
|
defaults to enabled when not in a checkout.</dd>
