[lldb-dev] [PATCH] Compiling lldb on Linux

[Sean Callanan]

Eli,

the generated file you're looking for is LLDB_vers.c, a file generated by Apple Generic Versioning, which is described in more detail
here: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/agvtool.8.html.

A properly-built LLDB_vers.c looks like this:
–
 const unsigned char LLDBVersionString[] __attribute__ ((used)) = "@(#)PROGRAM:LLDB  PROJECT:lldb-24" "\n"; const double LLDBVersionNumber __attribute__ ((used)) = (double)24.;
–
I've attached a simple Perl script that generates the above code given the location of the .pbxproj as input.

Sean
