llvm-config:tldr:8c2eb
The provided command is a compiler command using the clang++ compiler. Here is the breakdown of the command:
-
clang++
: This is the command for invoking the clang++ compiler. -
$(llvm-config --cxxflags --ldflags --libs)
: This part is enclosed in '$()' which allows the output of the command to be substituted in place. Thellvm-config
command retrieves the necessary compilation flags and libraries required to build and link programs with the LLVM framework.-
--cxxflags
: Retrieves the necessary C++ compilation flags for using LLVM. -
--ldflags
: Retrieves the necessary linker flags for using LLVM. -
--libs
: Retrieves the necessary LLVM libraries required for linking.
-
-
--output ${path-to-output_executable}
: This flag specifies the output executable file name and its path. You need to replace${path-to-output_executable}
with the actual path and filename you want for the resulting executable. -
${path-to-source-cc}
: This is the path and filename of the C++ source file that you want to compile and build with LLVM. You need to replace${path-to-source-cc}
with the actual path and filename of your source file.
To summarize, the command is using the clang++
compiler with the necessary LLVM compilation flags, linker flags, and libraries obtained from llvm-config
. It compiles and links the C++ source file specified by ${path-to-source-cc}
into an executable file specified by ${path-to-output_executable}
.
