llvm dev - Jul 2019 - Linker errors after installing/compiling LLVM/CLANG

Try using ninja generator, most people do not use Xcode for building, so
since it lesser-used, it also lesser tested.  Note that it’s perfectly
possible to use Xcode for code browsing, debugging, editing while using
ninja for building, which is what I think most people do

Hi zturner,

I understand what you say and I have been suggested this a couple of times, but
I really don’t want to make the switch to ninja. I’m a retired senior software
developer and I just use LLVM for a custom backend that I have already almost
completed in LLVM 7.0. I’m not really into LLVM-project development, and Xcode
is both familiar and fast enough for incremental builds of ‘llc’ or ‘clang’
alone including my target backend, (or it used to be in 7.0). It’s just the
right tool for me.

On the other hand I think that in case there’s no intention to fully support
Xcode in the future, then it should be removed from de doc descriptions to
prevent deceptive information. Otherwise, at least major issues like this one,
should be taken care of.

John

I only really need the basic installation of “clang”, and I do not need any
testing tools because all I want is to add my custom target to it. I also tried
"clang;libclc;libcxx” but the problem with the missing libraries is exactly
the same.

I’m not saying you can’t use Xcode, I’m just saying that instead of
*building* in Xcode, just type “ninja” on the command line to do your build
and then use Xcode as you normally would.

I don’t think it’s the case that LLVM does not intend to support Xcode,
just that its a community driven project, so unless someone is sufficiently
motivated to fix whatever this problem is, it might stay this way for some
time.  On that note, patches are certainly welcome, but if you just want to
unblock yourself, the easiest way is going to be to type a command on the
command line to do your build instead of pressing a button in the UI (and
you could still use the UI for everything else)
