Hi, I am using swig to build a wrapper for an c-function to use it in R. I would like to define a generic function, which gives back a void pointer. On the R side, I know what this pointer is pointing to, whether it is an integer or an string, or something else... but I need to somehow reinterpret the resulting "externalptr" into another form... a function that looks like the

A small number of columns in the data I need to work with are strings, the rest numbers. I'm using read_excel() from the readxl package to get the data ; right after it, the string columns are of type chr and the rest num. I'm tasked with finding out which columns are integers. From an advice, I tried saving the spreadsheet content into a CSV then loading that, which works like a charm ;

Hello, I am writing an R/Go interoperability tool[1] that work similarly to Rcpp; the tool takes packages written in Go and performs the necessary Go type analysis to wrap the Go code with C and R shims that allow the Go code to then be called from R. The system is largely complete (with the exception of having a clean approach to handling generalised attributes in the easy case[2] - the less

Hi Sanjiv, The PIC16TargetAsmInfo::getBSSSectionForGlobal apparently does magic that reinterprets the "section" field of a global in a strange way: // If GV has a sectin name or section address create that section now. if (GV->hasSection()) { std::string SectName = GV->getSection(); // If address for a variable is specified, get the address and create

One reason for writing code like this, i.e. explicitly spelling

My general feeling is this: No optimizations should be creating int2ptr/ptr2int. We really need to fix them all. They should use pointer casts and i8* GEPs. This has, unfortunately, been a problem for a long time. As Johannes says, optimizing int2ptr/ptr2int is very tricky. In part, becaue all dependencies, including implicit control dependencies, end up being part of the resulting aliasing

Hi, We need to generate "Floating point constants" in our code. In http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html it is explained that FP has to follow special encoding rules to be handled by LLVM later one (hexadecimal coding...) Is there any code available in LLVM to handle this kind of "standard float to LLVM float" conversion? Thanks. Stéphane Letz

The fact that we've arrived at essentially an original CoC reinterpreted to the point where it's effectively a new CoC has been the source of much debate and recrimination over the last few months ... you can read it in the ksummit-discuss archives, but I really think we don't want to reopen that can of worms.

I think we need to relax the test cases. MSVC usually prints the calling convention, and it's often useful information. Maybe we can make the diagnostic text smaller by using the __thiscall, __cdecl, __stdcall, etc keywords when printing types with LangOpts.MicrosoftExt, but it will require moving the attribute from after the identifier to before, which is exciting.

Hi Sarath, It would have really helped if you had removed the commented out code and inlined the calls to your homemade helper functions before sending it... You are doing this, in LLVM IR: %0 = getelementptr %Value* %firstArg, i32 0 ; i8** %1 = load i8** %0 ; i8* %2 = bitcast i8* %1 to i64* %3 = getelementptr %Value* %secondArg, i32 0 ; i8** %4 = load i8** %3; i8* %5 = bitcast i8* %4 to i64*

Good to know, thanks. The docs are slightly hazy on that - they do mention type-to-type if same size, but the examples are only between pointers and integers, not floats. Would it be worthwhile my updating the documentation to explicitly state that or is it just me?

Hi James, > The docs are slightly hazy on that - they do mention type-to-type if same size, but the examples are only between pointers and integers, not floats. you can't use bitcast to convert a pointer to an integer or vice-versa. You must use ptrtoint/inttoptr. Ciao, Duncan. Would it be worthwhile my updating the documentation to explicitly state that or is it just me? > >

Substituting the uses of a global with an absolute address would make all accesses to that global through pointer, which is very inefficient on PIC16. So we don't change the code generation for that global; instead we only pass the address information to the linker (home made linker) through some assembly directives. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to change the logic of this part or

The bitcast operation isn't just the reinterpretation (change in the semantic) of the bits without any change in the value of the bits itself?
