Much better than having to code in C/C++ in my view [ducking]. ;) >>> For example, something like this: >> >> [snip] >> >> Oooooooh! man! tha...

Gordon reminded me that most people seem to generate code using code, whereas it has become natural for me to use templates to generate code. Let me include an example from an article I'm working on (Java centric). The same argument goes for LLVM IR templates versus using the C++ interface. Generating LLVM IR for me is super simple. Here are a few of my templates for generating IR

Hi Terence, The reason I remarked, actually, is that for LLVM in particular the C+ + API offers more safety, and emitting .ll generally requires at least partially reimplementing the IR object model. I think this is a topic in the FAQ. But both are perfectly valid approaches! - Gordon On Apr 23, 2008, at 14:04, Terence Parr <parrt at cs.usfca.edu> wrote: > Gordon reminded me that
