[cfe-users] Problems compiling within the clang source tree

[Adrian Ortega]

I tried copying both with commands and from the Dolphin file manager (I 
use KDE), same result. I am also adding some commands so you can see the 
file permissions:

blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools > cp -R 
~/Projects/llvm/tools/clang/examples/clang-interpreter/ .
blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools > cd 
clang-interpreter/
blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools/clang-interpreter 
 > make
make: *** No rule to make target 
`/home/aortegag/Projects/llvm/tools/clang/tools/clang-interpreter/Makefile', 
needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.
blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools/clang-interpreter 
 > cd ../LibToolingExample/
blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools/LibToolingExample 
 > make
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
blah at blah-desktop:~/Projects/build-llvm/tools/clang/tools/LibToolingExample

The command line I used to configure llvm, and clang was:

../llvm/configure --enable-targets=host --prefix=$HOME/llvm CC=gcc 
CXX=g++ --enable-shared --enable-debug-symbols --enable-jit 
--enable-doxygen --enable-cxx11 --enable-keep-symbols

Yes, I want to step through clang code with the debugger :)

Once again, thanks for the help and your time. I hope this info can help 
spot the problem.
