[LLVMdev] running optimization pass in lli tool

[Philip Reames]

Sara,

If I'm interpreting your question correctly, I believe you may be 
misinterpreting the intended usage of MCJIT.  Generally, you would run 
your chosen collection of function passes before passing the Module to 
MCJIT to compile.  MCJIT does have an OptLevel, but this controls 
relatively low level optimizations during code generation not high level 
transforms like your describing.

I'd recommend taking a look at 
examples/Kaleidoscope/MCJIT/complete/toy.cpp for an example of how this 
can be structured.

Yours,
Philip
