...e an argumrnt of an instruction like: I->setOperand(someArgumentIndex,pConst); However, getGetElementPtr returns a pointerType, which holds the actual type as sub_type. This is a problem when I want to use the data from one global for the initializer of another pGvar->setInitializer(__NeedsAFloatTy_here__); //not pointerTy So what I'm trying to do is copy some data-fields of one global to another. I know the 'index-trace' used in getGetElementPtr, but I need the actual type, not 'covered' by a pointerType. Thank You! Alexander
