Title: fb-LLVM-project in Tiko 1.3
Post by: hajubu on March 22, 2026, 11:58:29 AM
Hi Paul,
just tried your 'new'-project (https://github.com/PaulSquires/fbc-llvm-frontend) with success for 'Hello-World'
After tried it before less luck, missing clang and more.
Now I found one small glitch (?) :: TIKO said it's missing 'GoRC.exe'.
I just put this file
    from the FreeBASIC-1.10.1-winlibs-gcc-9.3.0\bin\win64\
    into the 'fbc-llvm-frontend-toolchain\bin\win64' folder.

Is this enough or do we need more ? - either from the LLVM-22.1.0-win64 or of an other tool-lib e.g. like 'fbrtLib' ?

Thanks Paul

b.r. Hans

Thanks for the report. I will add the missing file to the files.

The project is very early so I would not use it just yet. SARG is working on making the llvm code generation more robust and complete. This project will progress slowly over the coming months. Once it is at a good state then we will experiment with adding new FB language features that may implemented faster than if we waited for them to be added to the primary FBC project. This is a hobby project right now.
