...One is bottom down, the other bottom up. This is an example of the following functions: string Value::getName() bool Constant::isNull() bool GlobalValue::isDeclaration() bool GlobalVariable::isGlobalConstant() bool Function::isVarArg() Driver code: val make_constant : unit -> llconstant t val make_global_variable : unit -> llglobalvariable t val make_function : unit -> llfunction t (* typesafe *) value_name (make_constant ());; value_name (make_global_variable ());; value_name (make_function ());; is_null (make_constant ());; is_declaration (make_global_variable ());; is_declaration (make_functio...

I was talking to Gordon on #llvm earlier, and he challenged me with coming up with a way to improve the ocaml binding's type safety. We can't go letting haskell beat us now, can we? I think I got an easy solution with phantom types. For those who don't know what the problem is, the ocaml bindings share one type between whole class branches (like values). This means we need to downcast
