similar to: [LLVMdev] creating a project from sample project

It's complaining about the LLVM autoconf/m4 directory which contains the m4 macros that are used in your project's configure.ac. By convention, your project should be in the llvm/projects directory so that you have: 1. llvm/autoconf 2. llvm/projects/yourProj/autoconf The AutoRegen.sh in #2 is looking for #1. By convention that should be located at ../../../autoconf/m4. AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR

Thank you for the response. I guess the only thing that is confusing is that the LLVM documentation, at http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html under the "Create a Project from the Sample Project" heading, indicates that (1) you can place your project *anywhere* you want, and (2) that you are supposed to use the AutoRegen.sh script as is. However, that seems not to be the case. The

Ryan, Rather than fix the documentation to match reality, I decided to fix reality to match the documentation. I have just committed (CVS head) changes to the sample project's AutoRegen.sh script that will prompt the user for the path to the LLVM source root and the LLVM object root, if it can't automatically determine the location (because your project is not located in the llvm/projects

Reid, Thanks for the help. I am trying out the fixes you checked into CVS. I seem to be getting some errors running AutoRegen.sh. I am a bit inexperienced with autoconf and m4. The errors I'm getting are below. Do you know what the problem is? I am using machines running FC3. The autoconf version is 2.59, the aclocal version is 1.9.2, and the m4 version is 1.4.1.

Hi Ryan, The output from autoconf doesn't look familiar (but then, does it ever?). Note that it thinks that AC_CONFIG_MAKEFILE isn't defined which is likely if you didn't get the LLVM_SRC_ROOT correct. Here's the only things I can think of: 1. You also need to cvs update llvm/autoconf/m4 to get the new definition of LLVM_CONFIG_PROJECT. 2. You typed in the LLVM source root

Reid, Thank you for all your help. I think that I have AutoRegen.sh working now. (I still get the warning about GOB2_HOOK, but I'm assuming that's not a problem.) I'll explain the scenario that led to the problem. I copied the sample project to ~/work/myproject/src/sample. Then I renamed it to ~/work/myproject/src/llvm, indicating that this was the llvm part of my project.

I'm trying to follow docs/Projects.html to use llvm in a project of my own. If I just copy the sample directory, running configure in the new one works fine: ~/programming/llvm-1.9/projects $ cp -a sample/ zhe ~/programming/llvm-1.9/projects $ cd zhe/ ~/programming/llvm-1.9/projects/zhe $ ./configure configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile.common config.status:

Hi, I am attempting to set up a new frontend project based on the sample project (I'm following the instructions at http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html). In doing so, I hit a problem with AutoRegen.sh which I worked around, and hit a problem with configure that I don't know how to work around. Below is what happens when I attempt to autoconf and configure the sample project that ships

Try using the --with-llvmsrc and --with-llvmobj options to explicitly set the locations of your LLVM source tree and object tree, respectively. I faintly recall seeing this error and seem to recall using these options to work around it. -- John T. ________________________________________ From: llvmdev-bounces at cs.uiuc.edu [llvmdev-bounces at cs.uiuc.edu] On Behalf Of Lane Schwartz [dowobeha at

Hello, people I'm developing a small code analysis project with LLVM (I hope I can concentrate on it next semester and make it a really functional tool, but, for now, it's an college end course project, and I'm more focused on theoretical issues than on the implementation). I'm using Ubuntu Linux and had a lot of trouble starting the project by copping the "sample

Hi, Just a quick mail to mention that I cannot generate a new configure script using autoconf or autoreconf. I had edited the configure.ac and thought ... "oh, that's my fault", but then I tried it on R-patched and R-3.4.1 without touching configure.ac and had the same problems. The "building R packages" documentation seems to suggest that "autoconf" should take

Thank you for replying to me. As you recommended, I modified configure.ac in autoconf folder. But I’m not sure about how to regenerate configure. Sorry… I tried to follow the way introduced in README.TXT in the autoconf folder. It asks me to run autoupdate on all the m4 and configure.ac. And then it asks me to regenerate configure script with AutoRegen.sh. However, when I did that, I got an error

I'm just getting started with an LLVM-based project, using the Sample template as a guide: http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html#create But I can't even get the Sample project itself to build without errors. It works fine if I do "configure" and then "make", but if I run "AutoRegen.sh" first, then do "configure", I get: configure: error:
