| 2 | (http://ocaml.org). |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Prerequisites |
| 5 | ------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * OCaml 4.00.0+. |
| 8 | * ctypes 0.4+. |
| 9 | * oUnit 2+ (only required for tests). |
| 10 | * CMake (to build LLVM). |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Building the bindings |
| 13 | --------------------- |
| 14 | |
| 15 | If all dependencies are present, the bindings will be built and installed |
| 16 | as a part of the default CMake configuration, with no further action. |
| 17 | They will only work with the specific OCaml compiler detected during the build. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | The bindings can also be built out-of-tree, i.e. targeting a preinstalled |
| 20 | LLVM. To do this, configure the LLVM build tree as follows: |
| 21 | |
| 22 | $ cmake -DLLVM_OCAML_OUT_OF_TREE=TRUE \ |
| 23 | -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=[OCaml install prefix] \ |
| 24 | [... any other options] |
| 25 | |
| 26 | then build and install it as: |
| 27 | |
| 28 | $ make ocaml_all |
| 29 | $ cmake -P bindings/ocaml/cmake_install.cmake |
