[llvm-dev] Problems building LLVMHello, spaces in path

[Keith Smith via llvm-dev]

I recently had a problem creating LLVMHello.

I used this CMake file

#!/bin/sh
# clangcmake.sh
cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86"
-DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug"
-DCMAKE_ECLIPSE_VERSION=4.5 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++
-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang ../llvm



then I ran

make LLVMHello

and the build failed on an error about LLVMHello.export


The problem turned out to be that the parent directory path had a
space in one of the folder names.

I removed the space and now LLVMHello builds properly.

Hope you find this useful.
