llvm::getLazyIRFileModule

Create a Module from a file, with lazy function‐body loading for bitcode.

Synopsis

Declared in <llvm/IRReader/IRReader.h>

std::unique_ptr<Module>
getLazyIRFileModule(
    StringRef Filename,
    SMDiagnostic& Err,
    LLVMContext& Context,
    bool ShouldLazyLoadMetadata = false);

Description

If the given file holds a bitcode image, return a Module for it which does lazy deserialization of function bodies. Otherwise, attempt to parse it as LLVM Assembly and return a fully populated Module. The ShouldLazyLoadMetadata flag is passed down to the bitcode reader to optionally enable lazy metadata loading.

Return Value

A Module with lazy function‐body loading for bitcode, or a fully populated Module for assembly; nullptr on error.

Parameters

Name

Description

Filename

Path to the file containing bitcode or LLVM assembly.

Err

Error result info.

Context

Context in which to allocate globals info.

ShouldLazyLoadMetadata

If true, defer loading metadata for bitcode.
