Member Function Documentation

PointerType * PointerType::get	(	const Type *	ElementType,
		unsigned	AddressSpace
	)			[static]

PointerType::get - This constructs a pointer to an object of the specified type in a numbered address space.

Definition at line 1308 of file Type.cpp.

const Type *

ElementType

)

[inline, static]

PointerType::getUnqual - This constructs a pointer to an object of the specified type in the generic address space (address space zero).

unsigned llvm::PointerType::getAddressSpace

const [inline]

Return the address space of the Pointer type.

void PointerType::refineAbstractType	(	const DerivedType *	OldTy,
		const Type *	NewTy
	)			[virtual]

refineAbstractType - The callback method invoked when an abstract type is resolved to another type. An object must override this method to update its internal state to reference NewType instead of OldType.

Reimplemented from llvm::Type.

Definition at line 1508 of file Type.cpp.

void PointerType::typeBecameConcrete

(

const DerivedType *

AbsTy

)

[virtual]

The other case which AbstractTypeUsers must be aware of is when a type makes the transition from being abstract (where it has clients on it's AbstractTypeUsers list) to concrete (where it does not). This method notifies ATU's when this occurs for a type.

Reimplemented from llvm::Type.
