<p class="MsoNormal">In general you can use Value::mutateType to change the type of a value. You can’t change the types arbitrarily though, I think that the operands to “add” still need to have the same type.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm not familar with LLVM IR API, it's not easy to get the type and change it right away. Seems need to create a new IR and replace the old one?
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">But it's also hard to CreateCall() or CreateAdd(), hard to get the original IR's info to fill in those CreateXXX parameter.
