llvm dev - Mar 2004 - [LLVMdev] Annotations on IR

Hi,

I checked out the LLVM code today, and it seems Value is
no longer a subclass of Annotable. Is IR annotation still
supported? Right now, I just need to annotate global variables.

Thanks
Rahul

Nope, we removed that from the IR from CVS (what will be 1.2 soon).  The
Annotation class had several problems and wasn't needed.  In any case
where you used annotations on global variables, just create an
std::map<GlobalVariable*, whatever> and it should do the job just the
same...

Let me know if you'd like more explanation.

Chris, 

I am thinking of using LLVM as a platform to carry out my research in using 
static analsis for program security and safety/system biology. What I look 
forward from you in response to this mail is the availability of support and 
commitment by your team in continuing LLVM.

Secondly, in addition to the application of LLvM mention on website, do you 
know other poeple using LLVM..
