llvm dev - Jun 2010 - [LLVMdev] CMake sample project?

Hi,

I built LLVM on Windows XP through cmake and MinGW make. That was a breeze!
Now, I wanted to start a project.
It seems like I need Makefile.rules and Makefile.config to start a new
project (from http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html).

And llvm/projects/sample uses autoconf (or ./configure). Is there cmake
based sample project available?
I could not find any from official release. Has any of you written sample
project template that uses cmake?
I just wanted to move away from autotools.

Thanks.
Sam

Those files are unrelated to cmake.

Just make a directory under LLVM_ROOT/projects and put your source
there, with a CMakeLists.txt file that contains the right directives
(you can use any of the llvm tools or libraries under LLVM_ROOT/tools or
LLVM_ROOT/lib as an example.) After creating those files, you must
re-invoke cmake for it taking notice of your new project.

Another approach is to build and install LLVM and write your project as
an standalone source tree outside LLVM's. Then link the LLVM libraries
into your executable.

This isn't meant to be a sample, but I can share with you the cmake files I
use for my compiler. It builds in both windows user MSVC, and linux using
G++, but should work with MinGW.

the structure is

src/
  CMakeLists.txt  # root make file
  front/
    CMakeLists.txt  # library
  middle/
    CMakeLists.txt # library
  back/
    CMakeLists.txt # library
  npp/
    CMakeLists.txt # executable
