[LLVMdev] LLVM and "who does delete"

[Nabil Stendardo]

  Hi,

I am new to LLVM, and I am pretty much paranoid about loose pointers. I 
would like to write a compiler in C++ + boost + llvm, but am worried 
about the pointers created and passed as parameters, especially about 
whose responsibility it is of deallocating them (does the LLVM API do it 
internally, or is it the application programmer's responsibility?). And 
what is the best practice for dealing with pointers (only new, new + 
delete, encapsulated reference counting just as boost::shared_ptr, etc.)?

Thank you in advance,

Nabil Stendardo
