[llvm-dev] Building LLVM and Clang using Clang?

Wed Sep 9 11:15:07 PDT 2015

Here's part of a script I use.  It uses a specific version of gcc, but if
you follow the pattern, it should give you what you need...

  cd ${local_dir}/build
  cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=${CLANG_GCC}/bin/gcc \
      -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=${CLANG_GCC}/bin/g++ \
      -DGCC_INSTALL_PREFIX=${CLANG_GCC} \
      -DCMAKE_CXX_LINK_FLAGS="-L${CLANG_GCC}/lib64
-Wl,-rpath,${CLANG_GCC}/lib64" \
      -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_PREFIX} \
      -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON \
      -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" \
      -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86" \
      ../llvm-${version}.src \
      -GNinja || die "cmake failed"
  ${NINJA} -j16 -v || die "ninja failed"
  exit
