LLVM tool for manipulating install-names and rpaths

Synopsis

llvm-install-name-tool [options] input

Description

llvm-install-name-tool is a tool to manipulate dynamic shared library install names and rpaths listed in a Mach-O binary.

For most scenarios, it works as a drop-in replacement for Apple's install_name_tool.

At least one of the following options are required, and some options can be combined with other options. Options -add_rpath, -delete_rpath, and -rpath can be combined in an invocation only if they do not share the same <rpath> value.

-add_rpath <rpath>: Add an rpath named <rpath> to the specified binary. Can be specified multiple times to add multiple rpaths. Throws an error if <rpath> is already listed in the binary.
-change <old_install_name> <new_install_name>: Change an install name <old_install_name> to <new_install_name> in the specified binary. Can be specified multiple times to change multiple dependent shared library install names. Option is ignored if <old_install_name> is not listed in the specified binary.
-delete_rpath <rpath>: Delete an rpath named <rpath> from the specified binary. Can be specified multiple times to delete multiple rpaths. Throws an error if <rpath> is not listed in the binary.
-delete_all_rpaths: Deletes all rpaths from the binary.
--help, -h: Print a summary of command line options.
-id <name>: Change shared library's identification name under LC_ID_DYLIB to <name> in the specified binary. If specified multiple times, only the last -id option is selected. Option is ignored if the specified Mach-O binary is not a dynamic shared library.
-rpath <old_rpath> <new_rpath>: Change an rpath named <old_rpath> to <new_rpath> in the specified binary. Can be specified multiple times to change multiple rpaths. Throws an error if <old_rpath> is not listed in the binary or <new_rpath> is already listed in the binary.
--version, -V: Display the version of the llvm-install-name-tool executable.
