[LLVMdev] LLVM-C: Calling functions contained in other libraries

[F van der Meeren]

This might be a bug (or feature depending on vision of the software).

I have tried this with the global mapping, and it still won't work.
But by replacing the calling code with the JIT:

    LLVMInitializeNativeTarget();
    LLVMLinkInJIT();
    LLVMCreateJITCompilerForModule(&engine, module, 0, &error);
    //LLVMAddGlobalMapping(engine, toCall, (void*)&NSFullUserName);
    
    LLVMGenericValueRef result = LLVMRunFunction(engine, toCall, 0, NULL);
    NSLog(@"Second attempt: %@", LLVMGenericValueToPointer(result));

It suddenly works like a charm, without any global mapping required.
