[LLVMdev] Two new 'llvmnotes'

[Matthijs Kooijman]

Hi,

> Aggregates as First Class Values:
it seems to me that having this would make the byval parameter attribute
partly obsolete? Will there be semantic differences between passing a struct
directly and a pointer to a struct byval?

I can see that byval can be used on pointers to other things, but is that
really useful? I can't see any use for compiling C code, are there other
languages that have a direct use  for a byval attribute?

Gr.

Matthijs
