similar to: [LLVMdev] copy value of a global's data field to another global

getInitializer returns the complete initializer of the global. My globals are complex nested structs, from which I want to extract e.g. one double datafield. Example: >From a struct Stuct having double,array(3xint),float fields, I could extract the second int value using the index sequence 0,1,1 with getGetElementPtr. This gives me a constantPointer, but I would need to get a constInt...

Hi all, can I access the numeric limits of the llvm types, e.g. HalfTy, FloatTy, DoubleTy, etc. in a fashion like the std numeric_limits tool? std::numeric_limits<half>::min() std::numeric_limits<half>::max() In c++API, I want to initialize values and need to know the correct range for the llvm types.... Thx Alex

Thanks for your reply. After I change Cstr to gI, it compiled successfully. Thanks again. Another question is for constructing getelementpt. // C code char gStrA[10] = "test str"; // here is Global variable,gStrA and initializer "test str" char gStrB[10]= "test str2"; main(){ int = i; char *pGVars[20]; // here, the pGVar is for storing the address of each

Hi Stepan, Sorry for the delay. It's great that you are working on MergeFunctions as well and I agree, we should definitely try to combine our efforts to improve MergeFunctions. Just to give you some context, the pass (with the similar function merging patch) is already being used in a production setting. From my point of view, it would be better if we focus on improving its capability

Hello Sean and Tobias, Sean, Thank you. Could you describe Nick's ideas in few words or give me links to your discussion, so I could adapt my ideas to it. Tobias, Your patch fails on several modules in my benchmark (73 of ~1800 tests). I have sent one as attachment. See statistics files for more details, all the .ll files you could simply find in test-suite object directory (after
