For documentation, see the plange.tech website, which is a clone of this repository.

Notation

• SOURCE: the directory containing the cloned source code
• BUILD: the directory for intermediate build files

Building

C++17 features are used liberally, and a capable compiler and build tools are required. Linux and Windows are currently supported. Successful compilation on other platforms is incidental, but may be officially supported in the future. Let us know if you get it working somewhere.

Prerequisites

• CMake 3.10 or newer
• Python 2.x (On Windows, choose to update the %PATH% environment variable during installation.)
• Either:
  • gcc 7
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2017

Build

• Clone the repository to a directory of your choice, SOURCE.
• Create a directory for build files, BUILD
• Run cmake

   cd BUILD
   cmake SOURCE
   cmake --build .

Caveats

• In-source builds are not supported, but may work incidentally. Out-of-source builds (where SOURCE and BUILD are different directories) are recommended.
• LLVM, LLD, yaml-cpp, and googletest are stored in git submodules, and will be downloaded by the configuration script if not already present. This may take some time.
