[LLVMdev] Beginners question

[Anders Alexandersson]

Hello!

I am doing some pre-studies for my masters thesis, which (hopefully) will result in a compiler prototype for Ruby to LLVM, and I have a question:

1. When reading the reference manual, I do not understand how e.g. simple I/O operations as printf() can be implemented in LLVM. Are there any external functions available, or how do I proceed?

Kind regards
Anders
