[LLVMdev] clang: call extern function using JIT

[gafferuk]

ok, i have changed functionType code to:

	llvm::FunctionType* ft =
llvm::FunctionType::get(llvm::Type::getInt32Ty(llvm::getGlobalContext()),
		std::vector<const llvm::Type*>(1,
llvm::Type::getInt32Ty(llvm::getGlobalContext())), false);

when I run my app the compiler says:
E:\Projects\Whistle\Whistle\Release>Whistle file.c
file.c(3) :  warning: implicit declaration of function 'yipee' is invalid in
C99

      [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
    int dd = yipee(1);
             ^
1 warning generated.
LLVM ERROR: Program used external function 'yipee' which could not be
resolved!
Stack dump:
0.      Running pass 'X86 Machine Code Emitter' on function '@main'



and if I change the code to be ran on the JIT to this:

extern int yipee;
int main()
{
    int dd = yipee(1);

    return 0;
}

I get this error:

E:\Projects\Whistle\Whistle\Release>Whistle file.c
file.c(5) :  error: called object type 'int' is not a function or function
      pointer
    int dd = yipee(1);
             ~~~~~^
1 error generated.
