Author: xiaobai Date: Tue Aug 7 10:34:13 2018 New Revision: 339155 URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=339155&view=rev Log: Add instructions for building LLDB on Mac OS X with CMake
Summary: There were previously no instructions for building LLDB on Mac OS X with CMake. It's sufficiently close to building on Linux/FreeBSD/NetBSD that a well-motivated developer could figure out the steps themselves. However, having an explicit guide is better and can provide Mac OS X specific configurations (e.g. LLDB_BUILD_FRAMEWORK).
