[LLVMdev] creating and inserting a function with variable arguments

[Akshay Jain]

The code that I have written to get the function type is:

const std::vector<Type *> ParamTys;
ParamTys.push_back(IntegerType::getInt32Ty(Context));
ParamTys.push_back(IntegerType::getInt32Ty(Context));
ParamTys.push_back(IntegerType::getInt32Ty(Context));
ParamTys.push_back(PointerType::get(Type::getVoidTy(Context), 0));
ParamTys.push_back(PointerType::get(Type::getVoidTy(Context), 0));

FunctionType *ftype = FunctionType::get(Type::getVoidTy(Context), ParamTys,
true);

And the errors are:

It may be a silly mistake, but I am quite new to c and c++ coding
especially in llvm. So I will be very grateful if you can help out.
