            Bug ID: 44142
           Summary: LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB should default to on
           Product: new-bugs
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: new bugs
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: tagoo at outlook.com

Being that it is desirable to use LLVM from other languages (such as C#), that
the C API defines the most stable interface through which to do that, and that
libClang dynamic library is now being built by default (with the C API surface
exported); it would also be desirable for the same to apply to libLLVM.

This would allow other languages to readily consume and use LLVM without
needing to build themselves locally. Currently, only Windows is building by
default (via LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_C_DYLIB, which is now on by default).
