Hello,
Thanks to Ted, Pavel and Greg for your reply with suggestion on how to resolve
the issue. Greg's comment below help me to resolve the issue.

While I already had an executable linking to the library, I didnot call
functions referencing to Clang and XML parsing from the
libModel_LLDB_Debugger.so. I simple called a function to print out the size of
a map container I have within my lib. Which worked fine. Based on Greg's
comment, I then extended this to call more functions which does the XML parsing
and AST Parsing, then linking failed with error: undefined reference to
`typeinfo for clang::ASTConsumer'. I searched on google and found out that this
error has to do with the fact that LLVM and Clang are compiled with -fno-rtti
by default and I am not explicitly setting the compile flag -fno-rtti in my
project. I then added this to the "ASTConsumer derived class" in my project and
it resolved the issue.
Thanks once more.
Thanks and Regards,
Bewoayia
