[llvm-dev] Shipping LLVM.dll for the C API with the Windows installer.
Thanks for starting! Btw here is my CMD version: cmd /Q /V:ON /c "for /F "tokens=4" %l in ('dir llvm*.lib') do (for /F "tokens=2" %e in ('dumpbin /linkermember:1 %l ^| findstr "_LLVM"') do (set symbolname=%e & echo !symbolname:~1!))" You run it in the directory with all the llvm*.lib (yes the ThinLTO is excluded in this example but can be added easily i think) 2017-07-06 20:16 GMT+02:00 Jakob Bornecrantz <wallbraker at gmail.com>:> Made a bit of headway here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D35077 > > Cheers, Jakob. > > On Thu, Apr 6, 2017 at 2:34 PM, Alexander Benikowski > <sebal007 at googlemail.com> wrote: > > Maybe someone can use this as a startingpoint to add the windows-specific > > commandblock which is triggered instead of the Darwin one together with a > > proper setup of targets to have the libs build before. > > > > 2017-04-06 14:30 GMT+02:00 Alexander Benikowski <sebal007 at googlemail.com > >: > >> > >> The following is an older commandline i used.
