NAME
       llvm-build - LLVM Project Build Utility

SYNOPSIS
       llvm-build [options]

DESCRIPTION
       llvm-build  is a tool for working with LLVM projects that use the LLVM-
       Build system for describing their components.

       At heart, llvm-build is responsible for loading, verifying, and manipu-
       lating the project's component data. The tool is primarily designed for
       use in implementing build systems and tools which need  access  to  the
       project structure information.

OPTIONS
       -h, -help
          Print the builtin program help.

       -source-root=PATH
          If  given,  load  the project at the given source root path. If this
          option is not given, the location of the project sources will be in-
          ferred from the location of the llvm-build script itself.

       -print-tree
          Print the component tree for the project.

       -write-library-table
          Write  out  the  C++  fragment which defines the components, library
          names, and required libraries.  This  C++  fragment  is  built  into
          llvm-config|llvm-config in order to provide clients with the list of
          required libraries for arbitrary component combinations.

       -write-llvmbuild
          Write out new LLVMBuild.txt files based on  the  loaded  components.
          This   is  useful  for  auto-upgrading  the  schema  of  the  files.
          llvm-build will try to a limited extent  to  preserve  the  comments
          which  were  written  in  the original source file, although at this
          time it only preserves block comments that precede the section names
          in the LLVMBuild files.

       -write-cmake-fragment
          Write  out  the LLVMBuild in the form of a CMake fragment, so it can
          easily be consumed by the CMake based build system. The  exact  con-
          tents  and  format of this file are closely tied to how LLVMBuild is
          integrated with CMake, see LLVM's top-level CMakeLists.txt.

       -write-make-fragment
          Write out the LLVMBuild in the form of a Makefile  fragment,  so  it
          can  easily be consumed by a Make based build system. The exact con-
          tents and format of this file are closely tied to how  LLVMBuild  is
          integrated with the Makefiles, see LLVM's Makefile.rules.

       -llvmbuild-source-root=PATH
          If given, expect the LLVMBuild files for the project to be rooted at
          the given path, instead of inside the source tree itself.  This  op-
          tion  is primarily designed for use in conjunction with -write-llvm-
          build to test changes to LLVMBuild schema.

EXIT STATUS
       llvm-build exits with 0 if operation was successful. Otherwise, it will
       exist with a non-zero value.
