llvm dev - Apr 2020 - using the bat script build_llvm_package.bat on windows

where should the file build_llvm_package.bat be placed and how should
the build_llvm_package.bat be called?
or
is there a another way to do a two stage build of the llvm project on
windows starting with using visual studio 2017 community.

build_llvm_package.bat is only a template for building releases.

You can use it as reference, but for a two-stage build the simplest you can do
is:


  1.  Ensure cmake, ninja build, python, GnuWin32 are installed and available in
%PATH%.
  2.  Start “x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017” from the Start
menu/Visual Studio 2017.
  3.  ‘cd’ to the root of your git checkout and run:


D:\llvm-project> mkdir build1 && cd build1

D:\llvm-project\build1> cmake -GNinja ../llvm -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-DLLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN=ON -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON
-DLLVM_ENABLE_LIBXML2=OFF -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="llvm;clang;lld"
(…)

D:\llvm-project\build1> ninja check-all

The first stage will therefore use MSVC. If the above commands succeed, you can
move on to stage 2:

D:\llvm-project\build1> cd .. && mkdir build2 && cd build2

D:\llvm-project\build2> cmake -GNinja ../llvm -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-DLLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN=ON -DLLVM_ENABLE_LIBXML2=OFF
-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="../build1/bin/clang-cl.exe"
-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="../build1/bin/clang-cl.exe"
-DCMAKE_LINKER="../build1/bin/lld-link.exe" -DLLVM_ENABLE_LLD=ON
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-Xclang -O3" -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-Xclang
-O3" -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="llvm;clang;lld"
-DCLANG_TABLEGEN="../build1/bin/clang-tblgen.exe"
-DLLVM_TABLEGEN="../build1/bin/llvm-tblgen.exe"

D:\llvm-project\build2> ninja check-all

You should have now the binaries for the second stage in build2\bin.

This is only an example. You can then take a look at
https://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html for extra cmake flags that can be used to tweak
your build. You could for example use ThinLTO on the second stage, by adding
-DLLVM_ENABLE_LTO=Thin. You can also use `cmake-gui` if you don’t want to go
through command-lines (ensure it points to the right build stage).

Best,
Alex.
