Purpose
Statically link
TableGenTests
so it can still build when linked against an LLVM Windows DLL.Background
The effort to build LLVM as a WIndows DLL is tracked in #109483. Additional context is provided in this discourse.
If
TableGenTests
is linked against LLVM built as a DLL on Windows, it will fail due to a large number of duplicate symbols found in both the LLVM DLL and TableGen libraries. This is becauseLLVMTableGenBasic
andLLVMTableGenCommon
are linked statically against LLVM (usingDISABLE_LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB
) so already contain a sub-set of symbols also exported from the LLVM DLL.This patch was originally part of #145448.
