Detailed Description

Sequential types represents "arrays" of types. This is a super class for array, vector, and pointer types.

Function Documentation

◆ LLVMArrayType()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMArrayType	(	LLVMTypeRef	ElementType,
		unsigned	ElementCount
	)

Create a fixed size array type that refers to a specific type.

The created type will exist in the context that its element type exists in.

See also: llvm::ArrayType::get()

Definition at line 787 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::ArrayType::get(), llvm::unwrap(), and llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMGetArrayLength()

unsigned LLVMGetArrayLength ( LLVMTypeRef ArrayTy )

Obtain the length of an array type.

This only works on types that represent arrays.

See also: llvm::ArrayType::getNumElements()

Definition at line 821 of file Core.cpp.

◆ LLVMGetElementType()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMGetElementType ( LLVMTypeRef Ty )

Obtain the element type of an array or vector type.

This currently also works for pointer types, but this usage is deprecated.

See also: llvm::SequentialType::getElementType()

Definition at line 808 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMGetNumContainedTypes()

unsigned LLVMGetNumContainedTypes ( LLVMTypeRef Tp )

Return the number of types in the derived type.

See also: llvm::Type::getNumContainedTypes()

Definition at line 817 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::unwrap().

◆ LLVMGetPointerAddressSpace()

unsigned LLVMGetPointerAddressSpace ( LLVMTypeRef PointerTy )

Obtain the address space of a pointer type.

This only works on types that represent pointers.

See also: llvm::PointerType::getAddressSpace()

Definition at line 825 of file Core.cpp.

◆ LLVMGetSubtypes()

void LLVMGetSubtypes	(	LLVMTypeRef	Tp,
		LLVMTypeRef *	Arr
	)

Returns type's subtypes.

See also: llvm::Type::subtypes()

Definition at line 779 of file Core.cpp.

References i, llvm::unwrap(), and llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMGetVectorSize()

unsigned LLVMGetVectorSize ( LLVMTypeRef VectorTy )

Obtain the (possibly scalable) number of elements in a vector type.

This only works on types that represent vectors (fixed or scalable).

See also: llvm::VectorType::getNumElements()

Definition at line 829 of file Core.cpp.

◆ LLVMPointerType()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMPointerType	(	LLVMTypeRef	ElementType,
		unsigned	AddressSpace
	)

Create a pointer type that points to a defined type.

The created type will exist in the context that its pointee type exists in.

See also: llvm::PointerType::get()

Definition at line 791 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::PointerType::get(), llvm::unwrap(), and llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMPointerTypeInContext()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMPointerTypeInContext	(	LLVMContextRef	C,
		unsigned	AddressSpace
	)

Create an opaque pointer type in a context.

See also: llvm::PointerType::get()

Definition at line 835 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::PointerType::get(), llvm::unwrap(), and llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMPointerTypeIsOpaque()

LLVMBool LLVMPointerTypeIsOpaque ( LLVMTypeRef Ty )

Determine whether a pointer is opaque.

True if this is an instance of an opaque PointerType.

See also: llvm::Type::isOpaquePointerTy()

Definition at line 795 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::unwrap().

◆ LLVMScalableVectorType()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMScalableVectorType	(	LLVMTypeRef	ElementType,
		unsigned	ElementCount
	)

Create a vector type that contains a defined type and has a scalable number of elements.

The created type will exist in the context thats its element type exists in.

See also: llvm::ScalableVectorType::get()

Definition at line 803 of file Core.cpp.

References llvm::ScalableVectorType::get(), llvm::unwrap(), and llvm::wrap().

◆ LLVMVectorType()

LLVMTypeRef LLVMVectorType	(	LLVMTypeRef	ElementType,
		unsigned	ElementCount
	)

Create a vector type that contains a defined type and has a specific number of elements.

The created type will exist in the context thats its element type exists in.
