The tutorial is not always up-to-date when a new release arrives.<br>
<br>
I had similar problems (not exactly the same cases) when learning
through the tutorials using LLVM-2.3.<br>
<br>
My best suggestion is to read through part of the source code and
figure out why it is behaving strangely.<br>
And, use Linux (gcc) rather than Windows (visual studio) compilers for
the learning purpose.<br>
<br>
In the end, I think the tutorials are still pretty good, though some
minus updates are always needed.<br>

type="cite">Hi everyone. I am using LLVM 2.4 release to practise the
tutorial at Kaleidoscope Chapter 4.<br>
I built the LLVM library, and created my own project, and then paste
the code from the tutorial into my own project. Then after compiled and
built it, I passed the built stage. (I am using visual studio 2005 )<br>
<br>
However, when I tried to input some code in the command line window,
the sample program crashed. And the Visual Studio 2005 debugger told me
that "Access violation reading location 0x00000008."<br>
And then it jumped to the code:<br>
" const TargetData *getTargetData() const { return TD; }"<br>
Actually, these codes are suspicous:<br>
<br>
TheExecutionEngine = ExecutionEngine::create(TheModule);<br>
// Set up the optimizer pipeline. Start with registering info about
how the<br>
// target lays out data structures.<br>
OurFPM.add(new TargetData(*TheExecutionEngine->getTargetData()));<br>
<br>
There is nothing to initialize the TD variable, so the exception is
quite understandable. But how to eliminate this problem? Can anyone
give me a help?<br>
<br>
Thank you very much for any guidance.<br>
<br>
