Support for newer LLVM? #1

Hi,

It seems that dinamite only works on LLVM3.5 currently, and since LLVM3.6.0 the MetaData class is typeless which is not a Value anymore. So I wonder is there any plan to port dinamite to newer version of LLVM?

Hi, There's no plans to catch up with LLVM's development. They make regular changes to the API (approximately twice a year), and for DINAMITE's intended purposes, AFAIK they don't bring anything remarkably useful to the table. I will be happy to accept patches for the version jump, if someone ends up doing on their own!

Best regards, Svetozar Miučin
