This commit fixes the problem of missing build dependencies between libclc source files and their various includes (namely headers and .inc files). We would like to do this with compiler-generated dependency files because then the dependencies are accurate and there are no false positives, leading to unnecessary rebuilds. This is how regular C/C++ dependencies are usually tracked by CMake. Note that this variable is an internal API so is not guaranteed to work, but then again *all* of CMake's support for new languages (which we use for CLC/LL languages) is an internal API. On balance this change is probably worth it due to how minimally invasive it is. It should work with all supported compilers and CMake generators.
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.
