Here is a new patch that use an enum instead of the StringRef. Does it match what you where thinking about ?<br>
<br>
I have a question though. What are the pro and cons of the llvm::StringSwitch ? When is it better to use it, and when is it better to keep using if/elseif ?<br>

<br>When that is said, it really is a matter of readability as far as I am concerned, when you read a "switch" it is immediately clear what is switch on (and thus what affect the choice of branch), and thus the llvm::StringSwitch makes it very clear that it is just a mapping from string to value, at a glance. I do not think (given its implementation) that there is any performance enhancement compared to a basic if/else if/else chain.<br>
