...some kind of IR file that is read by the link-time whole-program optimizer. We can avoid this confusing view by making llvm output the "normal" and default case. (2) Once the dynamic optimizer Brian and Tanya and Anand have worked on is ready for distribution, I would like to make llvmee (Misha's llvm execution environment) the expected, default way to run llvm programs. The llvm driver (llvmcd or llvmgen or whatever name we pick) would generate llvm code that is later compiled and run transparently by llvmee. Whether the code generation to native code happens offline (v...

I've been intending llvm-run (or possibly just llvm) to be the llvmee that Vikram spoke about. In my mind its kinda like "java" in the Java world.

Hi LLVM'ers If I may chime in to your discussion about naming the compiler-driver. As a newcomer (and novice) about LLVM, but as user, I think users best understand llvmcd (or llvm-driver) in conjunction with the runtime environment llvmee (or llvm-run). If I had to choose, and personnally I don't like those cryptic acronyms or other short hand forms, I'll pick up the names llvm-driver and llvm-run. /Henrik >From: Chris Lattner <sabre at nondot.org> >Reply-To: LLVM Developers Mailing List <llvmdev at cs.u...

As an aside, llava and llama are both taken, llvmize? llvminator? llvm-emerge a la

I agree with Chris that this driver should not try to do things outside the normal "compile-link-optimize[-codegen]" sequence.
