Technical requirements

This chapter focuses on one tool in the utils folder: llvm-tblgen. To build it, launch the following command:

$ ninja llvm-tblgen

Note

If you chose to build llvm-tblgen in Release mode regardless of the global build type, using the LLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN CMake variable introduced in the first chapter, you might want to change that setting since it's always better to have a debug version of llvm-tblgen in this chapter.
