...-) Hi Simon, The compiler framework will instantiate and call into your Collector subclass automatically as required. The CollectorRegistry::Add<> instance advertises your class to the framework so it can do this. Your Collector class needs to have a default constructor in order to insantiate the Add<> template. The framework decides which Collector to use based upon the 'gc' attribute of a function: define void @f() gc "mygc" { ... } This string must correspond to the first argument to the CollectorRegistry::Add<> constructor. The second argu...

Hey, I am a bit confused about the CollectorRegistry. I am attempting to write a garbage collector for LLVM, and the tiny example in the docs at http://llvm.org/releases/2.3/docs/GarbageCollection.html gives this line: CollectorRegistry::Add<MyCollector> X("mygc", "My bespoke garbage collector."); My question is now: Am I supposed to instantiate my collector

...the tests\mocks folder and added a file called utility.rb with only this: # this is the mock file class Utility def do_something_expensive # shortcut, just return true to satisfy client code true end end So this way, in my tests, when my model uses the Utility class, it should be insantiating my mock instead. But when I rake test:units, I get a syntax error saying that it can''t construct a Utility object with the original constructor: "Wrong number of argumes (0 for 1)". It''s as if the mock class is totally taking over, whereas I just want to overr...

I'm a newcomer to llvm, but what you've done so far is very impressive. Llvm is a godsend to anybody who is attempting to implement their own their own language. :-) My company is considering using llvm as the backend for a small matlab-like language for scientific computation; our other option is MSIL. After reading through the documentation, I noticed that llvm seems to have one major
