Abstract
-
-

This document describes the contents of the many objects files and libraries -that are produced by compiling LLVM. To make use of LLVM this information is -needed in order to understand what files should be linked into your program. -

-
- -
Introduction
-
-

If you're writing a compiler, virtual machine, or any other utility for - LLVM, you'll need to figure out which of the many .a (archive) and .o - (object) files you will need to link with to be successful. An - understanding of the contents of these files and their inter-relationships - will be useful in coming up with an optimal specification for the objects - and libraries to link with. -

-

The purpose of this document is to hopefully reduce some of the trial and - error that the author experienced in using LLVM. -

Linkage Rules Of Thumb
-
-

This section contains various "rules of thumb" about what files you - should link into your programs.

-
- -
Always Link vmcore.o support.a -
-
-

No matter what you do with LLVM, you'll always need to link with vmcore.o - and support.a.

Need more rules of thumb here.
