LLVM uses a single, language-independent virtual instruction set both as an offline code representation (to communicate code between compiler phases and to run-time systems) and as the compiler internal representation (to analyze and transform programs). This persistent code representation allows a common set of sophisticated compiler techniques to be applied at compile-time, link-time, install-time, run-time, or "idle-time" (between program runs).</div><div id="z58818" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; direction: inherit; "><br id="lcur2"></div><div id="z58819" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; direction: inherit; ">The strengths of the LLVM infrastructure are its extremely simple design (which makes it easy to understand and use), source-language independence, powerful mid-level optimizer, automated compiler debugging support, extensibility, and its stability and reliability.
