# This script generates a libffi bundle. On linux by building it from source
# using a devkit, which should match the devkit used to build the JDK.
#
# Set MAKE_ARGS to add parameters to make. Ex:
#
# $ MAKE_ARGS=-j32 bash createLibffiBundle.sh
#
# The script tries to behave well on multiple invocations, only performing steps
# not already done. To redo a step, manually delete the target files from that
# step.
#
# Note that the libtool and texinfo packages are needed to build libffi
# $ sudo apt install libtool texinfo

# Note that while the build system supports linking against libffi on Windows (x64),
# I couldn't get this script working with a Windows devkit, and instead had to manually create
# a libffi bundle for Windows. The steps I took were as follows:
#
# 1. run 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022'. After that, cl.exe and link.exe should be on path
#
# 2. in the same shell, run `ucrt64` (this is one of the shell environments that comes with MSYS2).
#    This should carry over the environment set up by the VS dev prompt into the ucrt64 prompt.
#
# 3. then, in the libffi repo root folder:
#   3.a run `autogen.sh`
#   3.b run:
# ```
# bash configure \
#   CC="/path/to/libffi/msvcc.sh -m64" \
#   CXX="/path/to/libffi/msvcc.sh -m64" \
#   CPPFLAGS="-DFFI_BUILDING_DLL" \
#   --disable-docs \
#   --prefix=<install dest>
# ```
# (`<install dest>` can be whatever you like. That's what you point `--with-libffi` to).
#
# 4. run `make install`. This should create the `<install dest>` directory with the files:
#    `include/ffi.h`, `include/ffitarget.h`, `lib/libffi.dll`. It also creates a `lib/libffi.lib` file,
#    but it is of the wrong file type, `DLL` rather than `LIBRARY`.
#
# 5. Manually create a working `.lib` file (in the <install dest>/lib dir):
#   5.a use `dumpbin /exports libffi.dll` to get a list of exported symbols
#   5.b put them in a `libffi.def` file: `EXPORTS` on the first line, then a symbol on each line following
#   5.c run `lib /def:libffi.def /machine:x64 /out:libffi.lib` to create the right `.lib` file (`lib` is a visual studio tool)
#
