Hello again, I've been attempting add to the swift-build script so that Foundation can be compiled as a static lib. Simialr to
> swift/utils/build-script -r --build-swift-static-stdlib --foundation I'm not familiar with Cmake, ninja and the way the swift is built but have got the build working. I have a few questions: Can a libFoundation.a file be compiled from the .o files that are created while building libFoundation.so? Is there a guide or recommended tutorial for Cmake and ninja that might be suitable for a novice, like me? Are there any documents that give an overview of how the build fits together and where I should be looking to add functionality? I can't quite work out how the build script transitions to ninja and clang. Hope that makes some sense?
