llvm dev - Mar 2021 - LLJIT: Help: how to add a archive?

Hello everyone

Unless I misunderstood the class LLJIT, there is no function to add a 
archive (.lib on Windows or .a on Linux) to the instance of LLJIT, but 
one can only add an object  or a IR module. I am trying to JIT the code 
below and need this Windows library: legacy_stdio_definitions.lib

HelloWorld.c
extern int printf(char*, ...);
int main() {
    printf("Hello World!\n");
    return 0;
}

What did I miss?

Hi Francis,

You can use the StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator class to expose symbols
from a static library (archive). You create an instance using its static
Load() method, then add the instance to the LLJIT by calling
JITDylib::addGenerator(). I haven't tried this on Windows, though.
