llvm dev - Oct 2008 - [LLVMdev] Blocks/Closures + Clang + LLVM

Hi,

I tried the little examples from here:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2008-August/002670.html

clang -fsyntax-only worked fine, but clang -emit-llvm had problems:
Assertion failed: (0 && "FIXME: Cannot get type of block
pointer."),
function ConvertNewType, file CodeGenTypes.cpp, line 329.

I use svn revision 58329. Is it just a temporary problem or did it not  
work at all?
Do I miss something?

I only want to know how blocks and local stack stuff a represented in  
LLVM IR (.ll).

Thanks a lot,
Nico

Clang doesn't support code generation for blocks yet.  Please try out  
llvm-gcc, which does.
