[llvm-dev] Creating arbitrary data type in LLVM IR

[Dipanjan Das via llvm-dev]

LLVM Type class offers pointers to known data types, e.g.
Type::getInt8PtrTy(), Type::getDoublePtryTy() etc. What if I need to get a
type representing a pointer to some arbitrary structure? How do I create
such pointer in IR?

The problem is not necessarily only with the pointer. If I need to create a
function in IR that accepts STL Map as an argument, how do I declare the
signature of such a function as well?
