# Usage
|
|
|
|
rustc_codegen_cranelift can be used as a near-drop-in replacement for `cargo build` or `cargo run` for existing projects.
|
|
|
|
Assuming `$cg_clif_dir` is the directory you cloned this repo into and you followed the instructions (`y.rs prepare` and `y.rs build` or `test.sh`).
|
|
|
|
## Cargo
|
|
|
|
In the directory with your project (where you can do the usual `cargo build`), run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ $cg_clif_dir/build/cargo build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will build your project with rustc_codegen_cranelift instead of the usual LLVM backend.
|
|
|
|
## Rustc
|
|
|
|
> You should prefer using the Cargo method.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ $cg_clif_dir/build/bin/cg_clif my_crate.rs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Jit mode
|
|
|
|
In jit mode cg_clif will immediately execute your code without creating an executable file.
|
|
|
|
> This requires all dependencies to be available as dynamic library.
|
|
> The jit mode will probably need cargo integration to make this possible.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ $cg_clif_dir/build/cargo jit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ $cg_clif_dir/build/bin/cg_clif -Cllvm-args=mode=jit -Cprefer-dynamic my_crate.rs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is also an experimental lazy jit mode. In this mode functions are only compiled once they are
|
|
first called.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ $cg_clif_dir/build/cargo lazy-jit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Shell
|
|
|
|
These are a few functions that allow you to easily run rust code from the shell using cg_clif as jit.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
function jit_naked() {
|
|
echo "$@" | $cg_clif_dir/build/bin/cg_clif - -Cllvm-args=mode=jit -Cprefer-dynamic
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
function jit() {
|
|
jit_naked "fn main() { $@ }"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
function jit_calc() {
|
|
jit 'println!("0x{:x}", ' $@ ');';
|
|
}
|
|
```
