Mirror reflection utilities

===========================

:Author: Matúš Chochlík 

Reboot of the Mirror reflection utilities implemented on top

of the C++ reflection TS.

Cloning the Mirror repository

-----------------------------

::

 git clone --recursive https://github.com/matus-chochlik/mirror.git

Building `clang` with reflection support

----------------------------------------

Install the required packages for building `clang`:

::

 apt install cmake clang lld ninja-build libgmp-dev libmpfr-dev

Build and install `clang` and `libc++`:

::

 cd /path/to/mirror/src/dir && \

 ./tools/build_llvm.sh \

    -b /path/to/llvm/build/dir \

    -i /path/to/llvm/install/dir

Setting up the toolchain

------------------------

In order for the build system of the `Mirror` library to use `clang` built

and installed in the previous step either copy the default toolchain file:

::

 cd /path/to/mirror/src/dir && \

 cp toolchain.cmake.bak toolchain.cmake

or create your own cmake toolchain file which needs at least to set

the following variables:

::

  set(MIRROR_LLVM_PREFIX /path/to/installed/llvm)

  set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER ${MIRROR_LLVM_PREFIX}/bin/clang++)

Building Mirror

---------------

In order to build the `Mirror` library and its examples with the appropriate

toolchain you can do:

::

 mkdir -p /path/to/mirror/build/dir && \

 cd /path/to/mirror/build/dir && \

 cmake \

   -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/mirror/toolchain.cmake \

   /path/to/mirror/src/dir && \

 make -j N

or

::

 mkdir -p /path/to/mirror/build/dir && \

 cd /path/to/mirror/build/dir && \

 cmake \

   -G Ninja \

   -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/mirror/toolchain.cmake \

   /path/to/mirror/src/dir && \

 ninja
