Note that you normally do not need to specify the sources involved. The LLVM
Makefile system will infer the source files from the contents of the source
directory.</p>
<p>The <tt>LOADABLE_MODULE=1</tt> directive can be used in conjunction with
<tt>SHARED_LIBRARY=1</tt> to indicate that the resulting shared library should
be openable with the <tt>dlopen</tt> function and searchable with the
<tt>dlsym</tt> function (or your operating system's equivalents). While this
isn't strictly necessary on Linux and a few other platforms, it is required
on systems like HP-UX and Darwin. You should use <tt>LOADABLE_MODULE</tt> for
any shared library that you intend to be loaded into an tool via the
<tt>-load</tt> option. See the
<a href="WritingAnLLVMPass.html#makefile">WritingAnLLVMPass.html</a> document
for an example of why you might want to do this.
