Also remove Llvm_executionengine.get_pointer_to_global, as it
is actually deprecated and didn't appear in a stable release.
llvm-svn: 224801
Since JIT->MCJIT migration, most of the ExecutionEngine interface
became deprecated and/or broken. This especially affected the OCaml
bindings, as runFunction is no longer available, and unlike in C,
it is not possible to coerce a pointer to a function and call it
in OCaml.
In practice, LLVM 3.5 shipped completely unusable
Llvm_executionengine.
The GenericValue interface and runFunction were essentially
a poor man's FFI. As such, this interface was removed and instead
a dependency on ctypes >=0.3 added, which handled platform-specific
aspects of accessing data and calling functions.
The new interface does not expose JIT (which is a shim around MCJIT),
as well as the interpreter (which can't handle a lot of valid IR).
Llvm_executionengine.add_global_mapping is currently unusable
due to PR20656.

In practice this means:
* Always using -g flag.
* Embedding -cclib -lstdc++ into the corresponding cma/cmxa file.
This also moves -lstdc++ in a single place.
* Using caml_named_value instead of a homegrown mechanism.

First, return true on success, as it is the OCaml convention.
Second, also initialize the native assembly printer, which is,
despite the name, required for MCJIT operation.
Since this function did not initialize the assembly printer earlier
and no function to initialize native assembly printer was available
elsewhere, it is safe to break its interface: it means that it
simply could not be used successfully before.

be deleted. This will be reapplied as soon as possible and before
the 3.6 branch date at any rate.

This commit brings the module structure, argument order and
primitive names in Llvm_target in order with the rest of the bindings,
in preparation for adding TargetMachine API.

This commit only changes comments and documentation in OCaml bindings. The official name of the language is OCaml, and the usage is now consistent.

Re-submitting with fix for OCaml dependency problems (removing dependency on SectionMemoryManager when it isn't used).

See http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=4166
If we call only external functions from a module, then its 'let _' bindings
don't get executed, which means that the exceptions don't get registered for use
in the C code.
This in turn causes llvm_raise to call raise_with_arg() with a NULL pointer and
cause a segmentation fault.
The workaround is to declare all 'external' functions as 'val' in these .mli
files.
Also added a separate testcase (the testcase must call only external functions
for the bug to occur).

libraries instead of relinked objects, the interpreter, JIT, and native
target libraries were not being linked in to an ocaml program using the
ExecutionEngine.
