<pre>For now, the LLVM build procedure is not to support DLL (shared library)
version for MSVC.
The reason is that LLVM classes don't have
__declspec(dllexport)/__declspec(dllimport) in declaration.
But there is another way to export class by Microsoft toolchain.
Microsoft linker supports /DEF:<def filename> option. Inside DEF-file in
'EXPORTS' section all required names for export can be described.
I have successfully used this approach for LLVM 9.0.0 in the plugin:
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/gradle-cpp/wiki/cpp-llvm">https://sourceforge.net/p/gradle-cpp/wiki/cpp-llvm</a>.
In attachment, there is the file 'llvm-so.def'. It has been generated by the
special tool for LLVM 9.0.0 and MSVC 2019 and contains all required exports.
Linker options required to build DLL:
/DLL
