Hello all! I'm working on https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-710, which involves porting SourceKit to Linux. SourceKit contains a handful of references to libdispatch symbols.
I have two questions: 1. Could someone share a set of instructions to build swift-corelibs-libdispatch on Linux? I'm using Ubuntu 15.10 and have installed [the dependencies listed here]( https://lists.swift.org/pipermail/swift-corelibs-dev/Week-of-Mon-20151207/000122.html). I have tried using both `swift/utils/build-script --libdispatch` as well as the instructions in the swift-corelibs-libdispatch `INSTALL` file. Both fail with the [same errors]( https://gist.github.com/modocache/8389d5d64e39ca5a4281500f84e9ce11). Any tips? 2. I don't know much about C++, but from what I understand the C++ stdlib provides tools for asynchronous programming. I list SourceKit's uses of libdispatch in a comment on https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-1639. For those familiar with both C++ and libdispatch: do you think it's a good idea to migrate to C++, at least for now? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!! - Brian Gesiak
