In trying to set up a LLVM development environment, CMake seemed "too
easy" - cmake <srctree>. No configuration options necessary
whatsoever. But it worked, at least for Xcode on MacOS and for Visual Studio on
Windows. Builds were successful. I have not tried running any of the output yet,
though, since I don't yet have a front-end set up.
Yet in discussion here, a lot of people are referring to configure options and
the like.
When or why should someone use configure instead of CMake or vice-versa? Are
both equally well maintained? What configure options does an optionless
CMake-created build environment most closely match?
TIA,
Richard

Try using cmake:
