This generator converts the existing data structure to the new JSON format. Next to adding the generator add the output of the tests in a new directory beneath the existing directory. This allows validating the output for the old and new tests. (These should be almost identical.) This infrastructure allows using the new code and developing additional features without changing the existing work-flow. Then at some point we can switch from the old to the new version without a lot of additional manual work or merge conflicts. The new files are generated by the normal libcxx-generate-files cmake target that is used to update the existing FTM macros. Note the new code have no tests; the validation of the output and testing in the CI shows it works. This code will be removed in the future.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
