[LLVMdev] How to know if an instruction is "usable"
Is there an easy way to know if, at a certain instruction, a certain value is usable or not? i.e., I am sure that if i use that value i don't to get the error "Instruction does not dominate all uses!"

If this is the same block, the definition has to appear before the use. This follows directly from the error message, so I'm not sure if this answers your question. Use the dominator tree analysis to check the dominance. -Krzysztof -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation

Thanks, So, how do I check if a block dominates another one?
