The use case is if you have a wrapper class:
class Base {
void *Ptr;
public:
Base() : Ptr(0) { }
operator bool() const { return Ptr; }
.....
}
and sub-wrappers that have exactly the same size:
class Sub : public Base {
public:
....
static bool classof(const Base*);
}
and in the code you would do:
void f(Base b) {
Sub sub = dyn_cast<Sub>(b);
if (sub) {
....
}
}

http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=rev&revision=78127, I'm changing the
ExecutionEngine's global mappings to hold AssertingVH<const GlobalValue>. That
way, if unregistering a mapping fails to actually unregister it, we'll get an
assert. Running the jit nightly tests didn't uncover any actual instances of
the problem.
This also uncovered the fact that AssertingVH<const X> didn't work, so I fixed
that too.

just argv[0]. And remove the code for searching the current
working directory and for searching PATH; the point of FindExecutable
is not to find whatever version of the executable can be found by
searching around, but to find an executable that accompanies the
current executable.
Update the tools to use sys::Program::FindProgramByName when they
want PATH searching.

I'm returning the number of bytes actually copied so that the client has some
warning when it reads past the end of the buffer.
I'm keeping the distinction between getByte() and getBytes() for now for
subclasses that use functions like ptrace() on Linux and only have a restricted
interface. This makes their implementation easier, and subclasses can always
write a one-line implementation of readByte() that uses their custom
readBytes().

Necessary for cases in which the memory is in another process, in a
file, or on a remote machine.
The primary use for this is the llvm-mc disassemblers, so that they
can be targeted at arbitrary objects, not just in-process memory.

- Yay for '-'s and simplifications!
- I kept StringMap::GetOrCreateValue for compatibility purposes, this can
eventually go away. Likewise the StringMapEntry Create functions still follow
the old style.
- NIFC.

malloc, so there should be no functional changes to other code.
These changes are necessary since I have plans to use this allocator in the JIT
memory manager, and it needs a special allocator.
I also added some tests which helped me pinpoint some bugs.

printers to do neat and wonderful things when printing debug
information. The ideas is to allow passes to configer printers to emit
pass-specific information when dumping IR.

"private" symbols which the assember shouldn't strip, but which the linker may
remove after evaluation. This is mostly useful for Objective-C metadata.
This is plumbing, so we don't have a use of it yet. More to come, etc.

all values belonging to the intersection will belong to the resulting range.
The former was inconsistent about that point (either way is fine, just pick
one.) This is part of PR4545.
