<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
|
|
various libraries, what they depend on, and how to use them. This document
|
|
describes the contents of the libraries and how and when to use them.

<div class="doc_text">
|
|
<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
|
|
files and their inter-relationships 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>
|
|
<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.
|
|
Furthermore, many of the libraries have <em>both</em> forms of library. The
|
|
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>
|
|
<p>When linking your tools, you will use the <tt>LLVMLIBS</tt> make variable.
|
|
(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>No matter what you do with LLVM, the last three entries in the value of

|
your LLVMLIBS make variable should always be:

<tt>LLVMCore LLVMSupport.a LLVMSystem.a</tt>. There are no <tt>LLVM</tt>

<div class="doc_text">
|
|
<p>There is never any point to linking both the re-linked (<tt>.o</tt>) and
|
|
the archive (<tt>.a</tt>) versions of a library. Since the re-linked version
|
|
includes the entire library, the archive version will not resolve any symbols.
|
|
You could even end up with link error if you place the archive version before
|
|
the re-linked version on the linker's command line.</p>
