[llvm-dev] Compiling LLVM with locally built clang | Errors

[SANJAY SRIVALLABH SINGAPURAM via llvm-dev]

Hello Kevin,

The error doesn't seem to be with sending C++  options to clang. Here's the
CMake output,
-- Performing Test CXX_SUPPORTS_CXX11
-- Performing Test CXX_SUPPORTS_CXX11 - Failed
CMake Error at cmake/modules/HandleLLVMOptions.cmake:511 (message):
  LLVM requires C++11 support but the '-std=c++11' flag isn't supported.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:578 (include)

The configuration runs fine when LLVM_ENABLE_LLD is set to OFF. But, when
enabled, the debug stops at the test checking for C++11 support,
-- Performing Test CXX_SUPPORTS_CXX11
-- Performing Test CXX_SUPPORTS_CXX11 - Failed
CMake Error at cmake/modules/HandleLLVMOptions.cmake:511 (message):
  LLVM requires C++11 support but the '-std=c++11' flag isn't supported.
Call Stack (most recent call first):

These lines of CMakeError.log reveal that clang++ actually fails because of
"-fuse-ld=lld",
[...] ( the following test is the only one that sends -std=c++11 to clang++
)

(EOF)

It's odd that cmake reports that clang++ failed on "-std=c++11" when the
problem was with "-fuse-ld=lld".

Also, do I have to explicitly indicate that lld needs to be built when
building LLVM ? ( I couldn't find lld in llvm_build/bin )

Thank You,
Sanjay Srivallabh

This might be error from `clang -std=c++11 a.c`. I would dump out and see
what commands CMake is running to check if it's feeding c++ options to c
files.

Hello,

I issued the following command to point the build to use clang and clang++,
from a local llvm build directory included in PATH, instead of
/usr/bin/{cc,c++},

cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ ../llvm_src

The configuration failed with the error stating the compiler didn't
recognize '-std=c++11' flag, whereas clang compiled a dummy c++ file with
warnings.

int main(){return 0;} ( which was used during the config, found in
build/CMakeFiles/CMakeErrors.log )

How can I resolve this ?

Thank You,
Sanjay
