A CMake change included in CMake 4.0 makes `AIX` into a variable
(similar to `APPLE`, etc.)
ff03db6657
However, `${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}` unfortunately also expands exactly to
`AIX` and `if` auto-expands variable names in CMake. That means you get
a double expansion if you write:
`if (${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "AIX")`
which becomes:
`if (AIX MATCHES "AIX")`
which is as if you wrote:
`if (ON MATCHES "AIX")`
You can prevent this by quoting the expansion of "${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}",
due to policy
[CMP0054](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/policy/CMP0054.html#policy:CMP0054)
which is on by default in 4.0+. Most of the LLVM CMake already does
this, but this PR fixes the remaining cases where we do not.
C language Family Front-end
Welcome to Clang.
This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++ and Objective-C) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.
Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.
If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant websites. Here are some pointers:
