I don't see why not. C is a worthy language, one that I think we should fully support. And by just providing some minor features really limits its usefulness. Right now, at this very instance it isn't usable. Except as a stepping stone to the bigger framework. But thats just my 2 cents. - Filip On 16 Sep 2010, at 19:51, Eric Christopher wrote: > > On Sep 16, 2010, at 5:35 AM, F

I could extract all the functionality into wrapper methods. So that it would be possible to create such a thing in C. But without considering the coding standards (it comes directly out of my repository), why would you object against this? It seemed logical to me, to be able to create code in C, and then generate C out of it. This would be useful in things like a new flex/bison. And combining

That was all I needed to hear :-) Because I am already at "chapter 3", which is regular expressions in C, but then made so that each regex becomes a real and true function. And doubt suddenly struck. What if my style isn't exactly what the LLVM community wants... On 01 Sep 2010, at 15:09, nessim wrote: > hey Filip, > > I'm afraid i can't give you technical

Is this kind of thing a big enough use case that we want to have an API specifically for it? -eric

I think it'd be nice to have a ToC describing what you plan to cover in the "hello world" tutorial. I'll take a look at the tutorial in the week end and send feed back.

Hi Filip, It's best to email llvmdev, not me directly. A place to start helping is to start working on a new tutorial! :) -Chris On Jul 5, 2010, at 2:29 PM, F van der Meeren wrote: > Will there be any change in this situation? > And if not, how can I help? > > Filip > > On 04 Jul 2010, at 19:34, Chris Lattner wrote: > >> >> On Jul 4, 2010, at 12:40 AM,

I am still having some trouble finding my way in the C++ files. Could you give me a clearer direction?

I am going to post my first chapter, just to see if it is acceptable. Any feedback is good feedback for me.

That won't work when you are trying to limit yourself to C and only C. Is there an LLVM-C alternative?

Most of the documents (html) are generated using rst2html. So I think a patch to the rst file in llvm/tools/llvmc/doc should be fine.

Aside from using the C API, you cannot create dynamic libraries with LLVM. For that you need a linker. LLVM generates assembly files (.s) and very soon it will generate object files natively (.o). The clang driver generally uses an installed gcc to do the assemble and link steps at the moment. Reid On Tue, Jul 6, 2010 at 7:51 AM, F van der Meeren <llvm-dev at code2develop.com> wrote:

If you have llvm IR then you can use 'llc' to generate c code. Try $ llc <input_llvm_ir> -march=c -o /tmp/output.c This C backend is implemented in llvm/lib/Target/CBackend - Devang

Hi, I''ve been using FFI with a Ruby 1.9.3 built with MSVC++ and it''s been working well. One thing I''ve run into though is this: ffi_lib :msvcrt But that''s not the runtime I want. But I don''t want to hard code the runtime name either. I realize I could parse it out of RbConfig, but I was hoping for something nicer. Is there a way we could create an

Hey Daniel, I''m trying to leave you a comment on this article you wrote: http://djberg96.livejournal.com/168403.html But since you disabled OpenID and anonyous, I''m not fond to register for another account just to reply your comments.

Hi, I am trying to get started with the llvm-c headers. Is there any place where I can get/retrieve documentation about it? Such as a basic tutorial, memory managment... Thank you, Filip
