[llvm-dev] How to write the same things as `opt` command in C++ API

Thank you very much your fast response!
When typed 'opt-3.8 -S -O2 main.ll', I got:

; ModuleID = 'main.ll'


; Function Attrs: norecurse nounwind readnone

define i32 @main() #0 {

entrypoint:

  ret i32 undef

}


attributes #0 = { norecurse nounwind readnone }


This result is the same as my C++ code.

I'm not sure my use of `llvm::legacyPassManeger` and
`llvm::PassManagerBuilder`. To write inlining in C++, I explored in llvm's
Github and other repositories which use LLVM, then I wrote the C++ code.
I'd like to be taught the correct use.



Sincerely,

Ryo
