<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br>
<br>
First, considering I'm using an IRBuilder and a DIBuilder to build my program, how can I automatically bind the CreateAlloca with my named local variable inside the DIBuilder ? Is it automatic with the Twine name of CreateAlloca ? And/Or should I use DIBuilder::createAutoVariable
and how ?<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Then, I'm wondering how to locate back my local variable in memory (register or stack) once i have a DwarfContext ready.<br>
<br>
I'm a bit lost with all this pipeline, sorry If my question seem trivial.<br>
<br>
Thanks !<br>
<br>
Vivien <u></u><u></u></p>
