[LLVMdev] How To Get The Name of the type the popinter is pointing to

[amitjai]

i am using llvm ,
i did this 

                        if (  AllocaInst *allocInst =
dyn_cast<AllocaInst>(&*bbit)){
                                PointerType *p = allocInst->getType();
                                if ( p->getElementType()->isPointerTy()){
                                        StringRef name =
allocInst->getName();
                                        Type *type =
allocInst->getOperand(0)->getType();;
                                        errs() << type->getName() << "   "
<< name << "\n";
                                }
                        }

but i am getting the output in the following format

i32   line
i32   temp
i32   p
i32   filename
i32   arrays
i32   label
i32   fp
i32   head
i32   b

here line is char* ,temp is char* , p is int pointer,fp is file pointer
,head is pointer to list node structure and so on

but why i am getting i32 for all the pointers .

please help me out.
