| 5 | If you're interested, here are some of the major problems compiling LLVM |
| 6 | under Cygwin and/or Mingw. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | 1. Cygwin doesn't have <inttypes.h> or <stdint.h>, so all the INT*_MAX |
| 9 | symbols and standard int*_t types are off in limbo somewhere. Mingw has |
| 10 | <stdint.h>, but Cygwin doesn't like it. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | 2. Mingw doesn't have <dlfcn.h> (because Windows doesn't have it.) |
| 13 | |
| 14 | 3. SA_SIGINFO and friends are not around; only signal() seems to work. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | 4. Relink, aka ld -r, doesn't work (probably an ld bug); you need |
| 17 | DONT_BUILD_RELINKED. This breaks all the tools makefiles; you just need to |
| 18 | change them to have .a's. |

| Chris Lattner | 7dc934d | 2005-08-02 19:14:25 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 22 | 6. There isn't a mallinfo() (or, at least, it's documented, but it doesn't seem |
| Chris Lattner | c2b5dcb | 2003-01-23 21:17:02 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | to link). |

| Chris Lattner | 7dc934d | 2005-08-02 19:14:25 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 25 | 7. The version of Bison that cygwin (and newer Linux versions) comes with |
| Chris Lattner | c2b5dcb | 2003-01-23 21:17:02 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 26 | does not like = signs in rules. Burg's gram.yc source file uses them. I think |
| 27 | you can just take them out. |
