I'd like feedback on naming conventions, doc comments, etc. //===-- llvm/Support/ConstantBuilder.h - Builder for Constants --*- C++ -*-===// // // The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure // // This file is distributed under the University of Illinois Open Source // License.

If we were able to use C++11 features, this would be quite nice, since that includes builtin things like shuffle over RandomAccessIterators and such niceties. However, since this is not the case, I think complying to the <random> API (which is quite odd, there's not even an overarching interface) might be more complication than is necessary. We would have to emulate not only the generator, but also the distribution classes an...
