As we can see, even in the case of a single inheritance, the LLVM IR that is generated can appear…
The basic idea to implement this is to associate a table with function pointers with each object. Here, a table…
For almost all applications, basic types such as INTEGER are not sufficient. For example, to represent mathematical objects such as…
High-level languages today usually make use of aggregate data types and object-oriented programming (OOP) constructs. LLVM IR has some support…
With all this preparation done, emitting the file boils down to a single function call: PM.run(*M); The ToolOutputFile class automatically…
Now, only the target machine is missing. With the target machine, we define the CPU architecture we’d like to generate…
We are almost done with emitting the IR code for a function! We only need to put the pieces together…
The parameters of a function also need some consideration. First, we need to map the types of the source language…
To generate IR code in SSA form from the AST, we can use an approach called AST numbering. The basic…
The conceptual idea of a basic block is that it is a linear sequence of instructions that are executed in…
