Currently, all AST consumers are located in the Frontend library,
meaning that in a shared library configuration, Frontend has a
dependency on Rewrite, Checker and CodeGen. This is suboptimal for
clients which only wish to make use of the frontend. CodeGen in
particular introduces a large number of unwanted dependencies.
This patch breaks the dependency by moving all AST consumers with
dependencies on Rewrite, Checker and/or CodeGen to their respective
libraries. The patch therefore introduces dependencies in the other
direction (i.e. from Rewrite, Checker and CodeGen to Frontend).
After applying this patch, Clang builds correctly using CMake and
shared libraries ("cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON").
N.B. This patch includes file renames which are indicated in the
patch body.
Changes in this revision of the patch:
- Fixed some copy-paste mistakes in the header files
- Modified certain aspects of the coding to comply with the LLVM
Coding Standards
llvm-svn: 106010
- Demonstrates how to build a standalone tool which loads source code using the
Driver and Frontend libraries, and then uses CodeGen and the JIT to actually
execute the code.
- Still more complicated than it should be, but hey its only 153 lines. :)
