Minimal toolset for building wasm files
Use linker's --export
parameter to specify exports (with clang use -Wl,--export
, e.g. -Wl,--export=foo,--export=bar
). The use of __attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))
is no longer preferable way to make methods visible -- --export-dynamic
needs to be added.
$(WASMCEPTION)/dist/bin/clang --sysroot=$(WASMCEPTION)/sysroot/ hi.c -o hi.wasm -nostartfiles -Wl,--no-entry,--export=foo
$(WASMCEPTION)/dist/bin/clang++ --sysroot=$(WASMCEPTION)/sysroot/ hi.cpp -o hi.wasm -nostartfiles -Wl,--no-entry,--export=bar -fno-exceptions
The -nostartfiles
will not require you to define the main
function, but will be looking for the _start
function:
use -Wl,--no-entry
clang (linker) option to avoid specified entry point. As alternative, you can add void _start() {}
(or extern "C" void _start() { }
in C++) to make linker happy due to -nostartfiles
.
