Thanks for the help.
I thought I'd solved the problem (setting the line number information in the
instruction metadata) by inserting my own function for setting line number
in llvm/Support/DebugLoc.h. I have added a function setLine(unsigned) in
DebugLoc class. The function simply sets the LineCol variable as needed. But
there is a problem.
Whenever I'm checking the line number(calling getLine()) from the function
where I've called setLine(...) function, it returns the changed line number
but whenever I call the getLine() function from other functions then it is
returning the previous value not the changed. Is the change in the LineCol
variable is not permanent or is this variable not at all linked with the
debug information?
How can I set the line number information for the instructions?
