<p>As mentioned earlier, LLVM projects are organized into
- logical <em>components</em>. Every component is typically grouped into it's
+ logical <em>components</em>. Every component is typically grouped into its
own subdirectory. Generally, a component is organized around a coherent group
of sources which have some kind of clear API separation from other parts of
the code.</p>
<i>; Comments start with a semi-colon.</i>
<i>; Sections are declared using square brackets.</i>
-[component 0]
+[component_0]
<i>; Properties are declared using '=' and are contained in the previous section.

+ <p>LLVMBuild files are expected to define a strict set of sections and
properties. An typical component description file for a library
component would look typically look like the following example:</p>
<div class="doc_code">
parent = Libraries
required_libraries = Archive BitReader Core Support TransformUtils
</pre>
- </div class="doc_code">
+ </div>
<p>A full description of the exact sections and properties which are allowed
follows.</p>
+ <p>Each file may define exactly one common component, named "common". The
+ common component may define the following properties:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><i>subdirectories</i> <b>[optional]</b>
+ <p>If given, a list of the names of the subdirectories from the current
+ subpath to search for additional LLVMBuild files.</p></li>
+ </ul>
+
<p>Each file may define multiple components. Each component is described by a
section who name starts with "component". The remainder of the section name is
ignored, but each section name must be unique. Typically components are just
number in order for files with multiple components ("component_0",
"component_1", and so on).<p>
- <p><b>Section names not matches this format are currently
- unused and are disallowed.</b></p>
+ <p><b>Section names not matching this format (or the "common" section) are
+ currently unused and are disallowed.</b></p>
<p>Every component is defined by the properties in the section. The exact list
of properties that are allowed depends on the component
<li><i>parent</i> <b>[required]</b>
<p>The name of the logical parent of the component. Components are
organized into a logical tree to make it easier to navigate and organize
- groups of components. The parent's have no semantics as far as the project
+ groups of components. The parents have no semantics as far as the project
build is concerned, however. Typically, the parent will be the main
component of the parent directory.</p>
<p>If given, a list of the names of Library or LibraryGroup components
which must also be linked in whenever this library is used. That is,
the link time dependencies for this component. When tools are built,
- the build system will include the transitive closer of
+ the build system will include the transitive closure of
all <i>required_libraries</i> for the components the tool needs.</p></li>
<li><i>add_to_library_groups</i> <b>[optional]</b>
<p>Components with this type use the LibraryGroup properties in addition
to:</p>
<ul>
+ <li><i>has_asmparser</i> <b>[optional]</b> <b>[boolean]</b>
+ <p>Whether this target defines an assembly parser.</p></li>
+ <li><i>has_asmprinter</i> <b>[optional]</b> <b>[boolean]</b>
+ <p>Whether this target defines an assembly printer.</p></li>
+ <li><i>has_disassembler</i> <b>[optional]</b> <b>[boolean]</b>
+ <p>Whether this target defines a disassembler.</p></li>
<li><i>has_jit</i> <b>[optional]</b> <b>[boolean]</b>
<p>Whether this target supports JIT compilation.</p></li>
