Thank you for the very useful guidance. It helped me. I understood
http://llvm.org/docs/WritingAnLLVMPass.html and
http://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html#cmake-out-of-source-pass and applied to my
pass. But I have another problem. After any change in pass, I must build
LLVM again? It takes a long time. Is there a way to build only pass?
Thanks again.
