Hi,

For a simpler example you can look at Ravi - it is CMake based build.

In page :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LLVM


see

"Front ends: programming language support"


You may study how front end languages are built with LLVM .


One important example is CLang itself :


If you add a copy of CLang build statements replaced by your language name
with other required modifications into CLang build system , and created
directories parallel to Clang , I think you may obtain what you want .


Thank you very much .
