2 // Kaleidoscope with Orc - Lazy IRGen Version
3 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
4
5 This version of Kaleidoscope with Orc demonstrates lazy IR-generation.
6 Building on the lazy-codegen version of the tutorial, this version reduces the
7 amount of up-front work that must be done by lazily IRgen'ing ASTs. When a
8 function definition is entered, its AST is added to a map of available
9 definitions. No IRGen is performed at this point and nothing is added to the JIT.
10 When attempting to resolve symbol addresses, the lambda in
11 KaleidoscopeJIT::getSymbolAddress will scan the AST map and generate IR on the
12 fly.

14 This directory contains a Makefile that allows the code to be built in a
15 standalone manner, independent of the larger LLVM build infrastructure. To build
16 the program you will need to have 'clang++' and 'llvm-config' in your path.
