<div dir="ltr">Another few notes for Ubuntu 12.04 users:<div><ul><li>I did need to custom build a newer cmake. Specifically, I built version cmake-2.8.12.2.</li><li>Do not make the mistake I apparently did where I tried 'sudo apt-get install ninja' and got something else installed on my system. I ended up building ninja from the git repository. Specifically, from git://<a href="http://github.com/martine/ninja.git">github.com/martine/ninja.git</a>, from commit 84986af6fdeae3f649f2bf884b20f644bc370e48 from Thu Jan 23 08:29:38 2014 -0800. If you hit some silliness about not being able to run your C compiler and trying to run ninja from /usr/sbin/ninja, start a new cmake directory since cmake cached the wrong ninja.</li>
</ul><div>The cmake command I ran is this:</div></div><div><br></div><div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1">/usr/local/cmake/cmake-current/bin/cmake -GNinja -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -DLLVM_ENABLE_CXX11=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-I$HOME/lldb/tools/libedit/include -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS=-L$HOME/lldb/tools/libedit/linux_x86-64/lib ../llvm</font></div>
</div><div><br></div><div><ul><li>I have a gcc 4.8.2 in my path, and I need to tell cmake to use the g++/gcc from my path rather than going straight for /usr/bin/gcc and /usr/bin/g++.</li><li>I need to tell the compiler where to find our newer libedit. You may recall that the stock Ubuntu 12.04 libedit is not new enough for the current code we use, so we have a separate libedit that we built from a configure-enabled build.<br>
</li><li>Note Ubuntu 13.10 does not need a newer gcc/g++ - 4.8.1 is fine, as is the libedit-dev package that it includes. If you're building there (or newer), you can drop off the -DCMAKE_*_COMPILER flags and the libedit tweaks.</li>
</ul></div><div>Running ninja looks like this:</div><div><br></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1">ninja</font></div><div><br></div><div>ninja automatically uses as many processors as you have, so no need to guess a good -j number as in (g)make.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Running the tests looks like this:</div><div><br></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1">ninja check-lldb<br></font></div><div><br></div><div>I am now looking at a few failures that I got when I ran ninja check-lldb: they might be related to the way I changed the build, so I'm first going to verify if they show up with make/configure.</div>

On an HP z620 with 32 virtual procs on ssd, it takes me just under 10 minutes to build lldb with configure/make. The same machine with ninja + cmake takes 4.25 minutes. *huge* speedup.</div>
