<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there any way to generate the binary code for a whole
module at once? Currently I always get lazy compilation one function at a time.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The reason I would like to generate the whole module at once
is because I create some functions at run-time and then minimize the memory
footprint by deallocating all LLVM objects. I’ve written my own
JITMemoryManager to ensure that the binary code itself does not get deleted.
Unfortunately, with lazy compilation the stub tries to call an LLVM method while
everything else has already been deleted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It looks like JIT::getPointerToFunctionOrStub is responsibe for
creating the stubs, and I’ve tried overloading it to emit the function
instead of a stub, but unfortunately the JIT class has a private constructor,
making it impossible to create a derived class.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there any other way to achieve this without changing LLVM
code? Or does this sound like a feature worth adding to LLVM itself?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks a lot,<o:p></o:p></p>

solution relative paths”. Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
