[LLVMdev] dragonegg plugin invoking issue

[Duncan Sands]

Hi Rehman, if I understand right the plugin works fine if you compile it with
-fvisibility=hidden, and replace LLVM_GLOBAL_VISIBILITY in llvm-backend.cpp
with __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))).  Since LLVM_GLOBAL_VISIBILITY
is a macro that expands to __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))) if you
are not on mingw32 or cygwin, and your gcc version is at least 4, that
suggests that you are compiling the plugin with gcc 3.x.  Is that right?

Best wishes,

Duncan.
