In this case, you only really need two currently

[LLVMdev] 16 bit floats
Eli,
This is similar to what I was originally thinking, but I also need to
support i16 data type and conversions between it and floating point
values. So would there be a way for me to distinguish between a half and
a short?
For example, I have the
short a = load_from_memory(short_ptr, index);
and
half a = load_from_memory(half_ptr, index);
if I force it to use i16 wouldn't the function be the sam in the IR?
i.e.
declare i16 @load_from_memory(i16*, i32)?
Thanks,
Micah
