No, I am not trying to delete anything. I wanted to created a GlobalVariable that is of Type ConstantArray, where one of the elements its a BitCast of a GlobalVariable. I have that, but I get those errors after my pass is done. I dont know why, my code seems sane enough, and I dont know another way I can go about this.

I'm trying to create a GlobalVariable that is a ConstantArray. Id like each element to be a pointer to other things in the program(global variables, functions). So that they all have the same type Id like to make the elements void pointers. I think I am going about this wrong, heres how I am doing it: void writeArray(Module &M, GlobalVariable *shadow, Function *val,

>The type you pass to GlobalVariable's constructor for that variable should be "[10 x %struct.dlist]" because that's what you want storage for. Then the GlobalVariable itself will be a Constant of type "[10 x %struct.dlist]*". Yes, I verified that this is the case. I enabled assertions and the error seems to occur while creating GlobalVariable for both struct dhash

Let me clarify my question. I have a struct array h1 as follows: dhash h1[10]; I want to get a Constant* to variable h1. It looks like I can use ConstantStruct::get(StructType*, ArrayRef<Constant *>) to do this. My question is how to get the second argument of type ArrayRef<Constant *> from the above variable h1.

Hi, Is it possible to make up a ConstantArray containing a "const char*" string and pass it directly to the function "char*" argument *without* creating a GlobalVaribable? I looked around and found the usual implementation is array->globalVar->gep. If we omit globalVar & gep, then the argument type would be [ i8 x N ], where N is set to the exact string length, and

What memory would the pointer argument point to? ― Gordon On Nov 20, 2011, at 16:58, "Dmitry N.

I'm a bit confused. For the Type did you mean something like: ArrayType *type = ArrayType::get(Type::getInt8PtrTy(M.getContext()), 4); This does not work, it gives me ""Wrong type in array element initializer" at runtime. Also it doesn't look like ConstantExpr inherits ConstantArray, so I'm not sure how I could use this instead. Thanks On Thu, Oct 20, 2011 at

I'm trying to create a ConstantArray(whose contents will be of types Function*, GlobalVariable *) so I can immediately create a new GlobalVariable(that will be in its own section). I'm doing this so I have these address stored. In order to create this ConstantArray I need a valid ArrayType, but I'm not sure what to use for the element type. I want this to be done at compile time, so I

excuse me for bother you again . a little supplement Constant* c = findValue(m,"E1$entry"); Constant* c2 = findValue(m,"E1$str"); I can get string object from c2 string s = cast<ConstantArray>(c2)->getAsString(); but it is not applicable for c string s= cast<ConstantArray>(c)->getAsString(); // Assert Fail because c is ConstantExpr::GetElementPtr

Because I need to convert an [4 x i8] type to i8* in the instantiation of a GlobalVariable. I have the follow declaration: %xxx = type { i8* } and I must emit the following variable: @yyy = linkonce_odr constant %xxx { [4 x i8] c"hello\00" }, but it's wrong. How do I do? 2012/12/18 Óscar Fuentes <ofv at wanadoo.es> > Alessio Giovanni Baroni <alessiogiovanni.baroni at

I am trying to create such module with API (it's equivalent to c++: const char* ss[] = {"s1","s2"};): @ss = global [2 x i8*] [i8* getelementptr inbounds ([3 x i8]* @.str1, i32 0, i32 0), i8* getelementptr inbounds ([3 x i8]* @.str2, i32 0, i32 0)] ; <[2 x i8*]*> [#uses=0] @.str1 = private constant [3 x i8] c"s1\00", align 1 ; <[3 x i8]*> [#uses=1]

Ok, now it's arising another problem. IR code that I obtain is the following: i8* bitcast ([5 x i8] c"hello\00" to i8*) generated from instructions: ConstantExpr::getBitCast (ConstantDataArray::getString (getGlobalContext (), "hello"), PointerType::get (Type::getInt8Ty (getGlobalContext ()), 0)) but the LLC tool says: invalid cast opcode for cast from '[5 x i8]'

Evening, I was writing some code that tried to insert calls to the llvm.annotation intrinsic function, which has a signature of (i32, i8*, i8*, i32). The code is below. void addAnnotation( BasicBlock *block, Function *F) { string foo = "foo"; string bar = "barr"; Type *charTy = Type::getInt8Ty(block->getContext()); ArrayType *s1Ty =

Hi, I have this call instruction to printf inserted which is causing an assertion failure. Any pointers to where I am wrong : Code Dump : Function *printFn=M.getNamedFunction(std::string("printf")); Constant *str=ConstantArray::get("Value : %d\n"); std::vector<Value *> Args(2); std::vector<Constant *> GEPIndices(2);

I am writing a pass where I need to make a function deceleration for printf. Below is the code I'm trying to use. ----- bool MyPass::runOnModule(Module &m) { vector<const Type*> args; args.push_back(PointerType::get(Type::SByteTy)); Function* f = m.getOrInsertFunction("printf", FunctionType::get(Type::IntTy, args, true)); ----- When I insert a call

hi I have one llvm program like this : ... ; define ConstantArray "E1$str" = internal constant [3 x sbyte] c"E1\00" ; use getPtrPtrFromArrayPtr to define SByte* from ConstantArray "E1$entry" = internal constant sbyte* getelementptr ([3 x sbyte]* "E1$str", uint 0, uint 0) ... when i want to get std::string object from this declaration in
