Hey:
I spent sometime debugging this, it seems like editing ``llvm/tools/opt.cpp``
and move ``cl::ParseCommandLineOptions(argc, argv,
"llvm .bc -> .bc modular optimizer and analysis printer\n");``
to the beginning of main() solved it for me. I'm not sure if this is a bug
on LLVM side

Just another follow-up, seems like ExecutionEngine is still not usable without
editing CMakeLists, on my setup I had to edit CMakeLists.txt as well to get the
example working.
Below is the modifications I made:
Modified Hello.cpp for testing:
```
bool runOnFunction(Function &F) override {
++HelloCounter;
std::string errStr;
EngineBuilder eb;
eb.setErrorStr(&errStr);
eb.setEngineKind(EngineKind::Kind::JIT);
ExecutionEngine* ee=eb.create();
errs()<<"ExecutionEngine:"<<ee<<"
Error:"<<errStr<<"\n";
delete ee;
errs() << "Hello: ";
errs().write_escaped(F.getName()) << '\n';
return false;
}
```
Modified opt's CMakeLists.txt:
```
set(LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS
${LLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD}
AggressiveInstCombine
Analysis
BitWriter
CodeGen
Core
MC
MCJIT
Object
OrcJIT
Interpreter
RuntimeDyld
Coroutines
IPO
IRReader
InstCombine
Instrumentation
MC
ObjCARCOpts
ScalarOpts
Support

TransformUtils
Vectorize
Passes
ExecutionEngine
)
# Support plugins.
set(LLVM_NO_DEAD_STRIP 1)
add_llvm_tool(opt
AnalysisWrappers.cpp
BreakpointPrinter.cpp
Debugify.cpp
GraphPrinters.cpp
NewPMDriver.cpp
PassPrinters.cpp
PrintSCC.cpp
opt.cpp
DEPENDS
intrinsics_gen
)
export_executable_symbols(opt)
if(WITH_POLLY AND LINK_POLLY_INTO_TOOLS)
target_link_libraries(opt PRIVATE Polly)
endif(WITH_POLLY AND LINK_POLLY_INTO_TOOLS)
target_link_libraries(opt PUBLIC LLVMExecutionEngine)
```
Modified opt's LLVMBuild.txt:
```

BitReader
BitWriter
CodeGen
IRReader
IPO
Instrumentation
Scalar
ObjCARC

ExecutionEngine
Interpreter

```
On top of that I also added these lines to the beginning of main function in
opt.cpp to force linking ExecutionEngine:
```
if(argc==-1){
EngineBuilder eb;
ExecutionEngine* ee=eb.create();
delete ee;
}
```
as well as force linking MCJIT and Interpreter by including headers in opt:
```
#include "llvm/ExecutionEngine/ExecutionEngine.h"
#include "llvm/ExecutionEngine/Interpreter.h"
#include "llvm/ExecutionEngine/MCJIT.h"
```
Moving cl::parseCommandLineOptions doesn't seem to be related to the issue,
my previous assumption was wrong.
Those modifications works at least on my setup with the following output:
```
λ : >>> bin/opt -load lib/LLVMHello.dylib hw.ll -hello
WARNING: You're attempting to print out a bitcode file.
This is inadvisable as it may cause display problems. If
you REALLY want to taste LLVM bitcode first-hand, you
can force output with the `-f' option.
Assertion failed: (M && "Module is null?"), function Init,
file /Users/naville/Development/Hikari/lib/ExecutionEngine/ExecutionEngine.cpp,
line 80.
```
Which is due to i didn't initialize the EEBuilder properly, but at least the
pass now loads and executes properly

The fundamental problem here is that opt doesn’t use ExecutionEngine (because it
has no need to), so trying
to use ExecutionEngine (or any other bit of llvm that opt doesn’t use for that
matter) in an opt plugin isn’t
going to work.
The solution I’d go with would be to build llvm with shared libraries (use
–DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON on the
cmake command) then link the plugin against ExecutionEngine. That shouldn’t
require any changes anywhere
(when I gave it a quick try it seemed to work).
