|* This header declares the C interface to the LLJIT class in                 *|
|* libLLVMOrcJIT.a, which provides a simple MCJIT-like ORC JIT.               *|

|* Many exotic languages can interoperate with C code but have a harder time  *|
|* with C++ due to name mangling. So in addition to C, this interface enables *|
|* tools written in such languages.                                           *|
|*                                                                            *|
|* Note: This interface is experimental. It is *NOT* stable, and may be       *|
|*       changed without warning. Only C API usage documentation is           *|
|*       provided. See the C++ documentation for all higher level ORC API     *|
