[vmkit-commits] vmkit doesn't support debug build?

[Koutheir Attouchi]

Hello,

First, VMKit is compiled using LLVM tools. You probably need to compile
LLVM in debug mode before compiling VMKit in debug mode. I do this using
the commands:

svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk llvm
cd llvm/tools
svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk clang
cd ../projects
svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/compiler-rt/trunk compiler-rt
cd ..
./configure --disable-optimized --enable-assertions --enable-debug-runtime
--enable-debug-symbols --enable-jit --enable-threads --enable-pthreads
--enable-pic --enable-targets=x86,cpp
make -j12 ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=0 BUILD_EXAMPLES=0 ENABLE_DOCS=0

This might take a long time to compile.
Next, you get vmkit, patch it, configure it for debug mode then compile it:

svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/vmkit/trunk vmkit
cd vmkit
patch -p0 < /path/to/vmkit-debug.patch
./configure --with-llvmsrc=/path/to/llvm --with-llvmobj=/path/to/llvm
--with-gnu-classpath-libs=/path/to/classpath/lib
--with-gnu-classpath-glibj=/usr/local/classpath/share/classpath/glibj.zip
make -j12

The patch modifies configure files and makefiles and source files. So patch
a verbatim copy of VMKit and do run configure *after* patching.
If you have issues feel free to ask.

Cordially.
