llvm dev - May 2014 - [LLVMdev] Question on doInitialization

Have a simple newbie question on doInitialization.
This functions returns boolean by definition.

However, what is the meaning of the return value of doInitialization
function?
It just returns boolean and doesn't seem to be used other places.
The boolean value simply means the initialization process is done
successfully?

Thanks.

I believe that a return value of "true" means that doInitialiazation()
modified the LLVM IR in some way while "false" means that 
doInitialization() made no changes to the LLVM IR at all.  There might 
be a comment in the doxygen documentation that can validate this.
