[llvm-commits] llvm-c patch to add LLVMGetTypeByName and LLVMConstPointerNull

[Wladimir van der Laan]

Dear LLVM developers,

When working on a project using LLVM I ran into two important calls
that were missing from the llvm-c API (and thus from llvm-py, which
binds it):

LLVMGetTypeByName - a way to get a typedef by name
LLVMConstPointerNull - get a null pointer of whatever type

The attached patch fixes this problem by adding them in Core.h and
Core.cpp. I might run into more of these, but I thought it'd be better
to send this patch before I forget about it.

Greetings,
Wladimir
