llvm dev - Jul 2010 - [LLVMdev] LLVM-C headers: create native library

Hi,

Is it possible to create a .dll / .so / .dylib by only using the LLVM-C headers
?
If so, I cannot find it.

Aside from using the C API, you cannot create dynamic libraries with
LLVM.  For that you need a linker.  LLVM generates assembly files (.s)
and very soon it will generate object files natively (.o).

The clang driver generally uses an installed gcc to do the assemble
and link steps at the moment.

gcc? I thought it uses binutils.
