Detailed Description
Types represent the type of a value.
Types are associated with a context instance. The context internally deduplicates types so there is only 1 instance of a specific type alive at a time. In other words, a unique type is shared among all consumers within a context.
A Type in the C API corresponds to llvm::Type.
Types have the following hierarchy:
types: integer type real type function type sequence types: array type pointer type vector type void type label type opaque type
Function Documentation
◆ LLVMDumpType()
| void LLVMDumpType | ( | LLVMTypeRef | Val | ) |
Dump a representation of a type to stderr.

◆ LLVMGetTypeContext()
| LLVMContextRef LLVMGetTypeContext | ( | LLVMTypeRef | Ty | ) |
Obtain the context to which this type instance is associated.

◆ LLVMGetTypeKind()
| LLVMTypeKind LLVMGetTypeKind | ( | LLVMTypeRef | Ty | ) |
Obtain the enumerated type of a Type instance.

◆ LLVMPrintTypeToString()
| char* LLVMPrintTypeToString | ( | LLVMTypeRef | Val | ) |
Return a string representation of the type.
Use LLVMDisposeMessage to free the string.

◆ LLVMTypeIsSized()
| LLVMBool LLVMTypeIsSized | ( | LLVMTypeRef | Ty | ) |
Whether the type has a known size.
Things that don't have a size are abstract types, labels, and void.a
