llvm dev - Apr 2010 - [LLVMdev] pass argument to a FunctionPass

Hello
is there any way to pass argument to my own Function pass

I mean I wrote a Function pass (like Hello) that give me somme analyzes
about the code source and I need to pass somme argument to the Pass  like
the size of data....

I want some think like this

  opt -load ../../../Debug/lib/LLVMHello.so -hello2 < test.bc > /dev/null
arg1 arg2 ...

So how to get inside the Function pass the arg1 and arg 2 ??


Thank you

K.H

Add a command-line option to your pass using the LLVM command-line 
library: http://llvm.org/docs/CommandLine.html.  You can find examples 
in the LLVM source; the inlining optimization pass (in 
lib/Transforms/IPO, I believe) does this.

If you add command-line options using this library, they get registered 
when loaded into opt and bugpoint.
