Hello everyone, I'm a little new to LLVM. I know that the backends are still in experimental stage. MSIL and MIPS would be very useful for a project that I'm working on. Do you have any plans to have it completed in the next few months? I could generate the MSIL assembly but when compiled it, which compiles sucessfully, it generates invalid opcode errors.

Do you have anything that explicitly fails? -eric

So, consider it as some sort of "demonstration backend". And I think it won't be ever completed until someone will take maintainership over it. -- With best regards, Anton Korobeynikov Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics, Saint Petersburg State University

[LLVMdev] MSIL and MIPS backend for LLVM
Hi, The code that I was using was this: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32q/benchmark.php?test=nbody&lang=gcc&id=1 I followed the footsteps for compiling it to BC than I took the BC code and compiled it with ilasm2 (Mono). After that I tried to run the .exe with mono and it gave me a invalid opcode. I wish I could give more information about the bug but my ext3fs partition crashed and I'm now recovering it. Maybe later I could give more detailed information about the bug.
