Hi guys,

Here's an update FYI. I have managed to get clang sort of working. It compiles 
my sample code but I can't get the binary to execute. ./a.out simply returns:


./a.out: No such file or directory.

I'm sure that a.out exists and weirdly I could get the same binary file to run 
on my build machine. So I guess it could be because of some architecture 
difference but both target and build platform are quite the same (Intel x64 in 
build machine and BayleyBay for target platform) I used valleyisland-64 for the 
target platform so both should be able to execute 64 bit binaries. I suppose I 
can specify some other configuration options there but I have no idea what to 
specify the configure parameter --target=<TARGET> . x64 did not do any good. So 
any idea?

Thanks,
Chan Kit

Liviu and Jim,

The thing is I'm trying to integrate LLVM+Clang together in the LLVM recipe. 
The modifications that I made are just adding Clang, compiler-rt and Clang 
tools within the LLVM work directory.  Using this way, I can mimic the original 
way (the one in LLVM website) of installing Clang+LLVM. So there are just two 
recipes; llvm3.3 and llvm-common just like the ones in the OpenEmbedded 
website. I do not know if I can build Clang separately.

Jim, judging from your postbuild script, it would need a RPM based linux system 
to build isn't it?

Hello Yu, Jim

I think you can get the clang executable into the SDK installer script with 
something like this:

1. Add this dependency in nativesdk-packagegroup-sdk-host.bb:
RDEPENDS_${PN} += "nativesdk-<name-of-clang-recipe>"

2. In the clang recipe add this install() overwrite for the nativesdk class - 
this will install it into the SDK sysroot:
do_install_class-nativesdk() {
    install -d ${D}${bindir}
    install -m 0755 clang ${D}${bindir}
}

3. The clang recipe (I don't know if it has a recipe of its own, or it's part 
of the LLVM recipe) should also inherit from nativesdk:
BBCLASSEXTEND = "nativesdk"

Basically this should get your clang executable inside the SDK installer. Sure 
you can add more executables related to clang (like the llvm-related ones) in 
the install_class-nativesdk() function.

I **think** I'm just inches away from success. I think I just need to invoke a 
correct install command somewhere in the do_install function but so far I have 
not managed to do so. But right now the alternative way of jamming the compiler 
into the SDK sounds tempting to me.

Hi Jim,



How did you jam the clang compiler into the SDK tarball?

Hello Chan,



I have been working to a similar goal, to include clang in the toolchain to be 
used for compiling applications to run on the target.  Using clang to compile 
the OS and kernel are not required or  desired by me.



You may get some insight from the thread I started in November on the subject.  
I'm not sure that this contains all of the posts on the subject. You may want 
to search the archive for November.



I have not been successful yet in getting clang actually packaged in the 
toolchain, in the Yocto build,  but at least it builds.  I have a postbuild 
script that takes the built clang compiler from the work directory and jams it 
into the SDK tarball that is embedded in the sdk install script.



-Jim-
