[llvm-dev] How to add instructions to a Module at runtime?
Hi all, I'm trying to understand how the Module object works more in details, so suppose I've an empty module and I'd like to know if it is possible to add instructions at runtime and execute it. Is it possible to do it? Any suggestion on how? Thanks -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[llvm-dev] How to add instructions to a Module at runtime?
If you're looking to execute code at runtime (within th eam process - or across a network etc - as the one that compiles that code (rather than writing an executable/object code to dusk etc)) sounds like you're looking for a JIT. Here's some info on how to use/write a JIT using llvm: https://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/BuildingAJIT1.html On Sun, Nov 18, 2018, 5:53 AM Alberto Barbaro via llvm-dev < llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org wrote:> Hi all, > I'm trying to understand how the Module object works more in details, so > suppose I've an empty module and I'd like to know if it is possible to add > instructions at runtime and execute it.

[llvm-dev] How to add instructions to a Module at runtime?
Hi David, Thanks for your answer. Just to clarify, I would like to create 2 3 instructions put them in a function and execute them. Do you still think the JIT would be the best option?
