[clang-repl] Simplify the value printing logic to enable out-of-process. (#107737) This patch improves the design of the IncrementalParser and Interpreter classes. Now the incremental parser is only responsible for building the partial translation unit declaration and the AST, while the Interpreter fills in the lower level llvm::Module and other JIT-related infrastructure. Finally the Interpreter class now orchestrates the AST and the LLVM IR with the IncrementalParser and IncrementalExecutor classes. The design improvement allows us to rework some of the logic that extracts an interpreter value into the clang::Value object. The new implementation simplifies use-cases which are used for out-of-process execution by allowing interpreter to be inherited or customized with an clang::ASTConsumer. This change will enable completing the pretty printing work which is in llvm/llvm-project#84769
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
