[LLVMdev] Cast specific pointer type to generic one

[Tehila Mayzels]

Hi,

 

Suppose I have a pointer to "something" (a structure I defined) and I want
to pass the pointer to a generic function, that gets a 64-bit address
pointer.

How do I do that?

 

For instance:

The function is:

void Foo (void *);

I get the specific pointer using getPointerOperand() on a store instruction
that store to it:

inst->getPointerOperand()->getType()

 

Now I want to call Foo with the pointer, but the types of the arguments are
mismatches - one is specific (%"class.XXX::YYY"*) and the other generic.

How should I cast it so there won't be a mismatch?

 

Thanks in advance,

Tehila.
