Error while running the program

[schwarzschild-radius]

I tried to run the following code

#include "llvm/Pass.h"
#include "llvm/IR/Function.h"
#include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h"
#include "llvm/IR/LegacyPassManager.h"
#include "llvm/Transforms/IPO/PassManagerBuilder.h"
using namespace llvm;

namespace {
  struct SkeletonPass : public FunctionPass {
    static char ID;
    SkeletonPass() : FunctionPass(ID) {}

    virtual bool runOnFunction(Function &F) {
      errs() << "In a function called " << F.getName() << "!\n";

      errs() << "Function body:\n";
      F.dump();

      for (auto &B : F) {
        errs() << "Basic block:\n";
        B.dump();

        for (auto &I : B) {
          errs() << "Instruction: ";
          I.dump();
        }
      }

      return false;
    }
  };
}

char SkeletonPass::ID = 0;

// Automatically enable the pass.
// http://adriansampson.net/blog/clangpass.html
static void registerSkeletonPass(const PassManagerBuilder &,
                         legacy::PassManagerBase &PM) {
  PM.add(new SkeletonPass());
}
static RegisterStandardPasses
  RegisterMyPass(PassManagerBuilder::EP_EarlyAsPossible,
                 registerSkeletonPass);

and I received the following error

Should I need to install a different version of clang?

Hello! As the README says, this was written for LLVM 3.8. (Any help with the port would be appreciated.)

[schwarzschild-radius]

Hello, Adrian. Instead of using dump(), you can directly use the variable to print out the contents.

[sampsyo]

OK! I’d accept a pull request if you can offer one. 👍

[schwarzschild-radius]

Hello, Adrian. Your code in the repository is working perfect, except your code shown in your blog. That second example that prints out the instruction inside blocks inside functions. I don't think this issue needs a pull request. You can update your blog post

[sampsyo]

Aha, got it! In fact, the post is on GitHub too. 😃 So if you have a moment, please do consider sending a PR there.

Another possibility that 'dump' cannot be found is the clang you use is a 'release build', so it does not include 'dump' function. Trying to build a 'debug' mode clang may solve the problem.

Rebuilt LLVM in Debug mode, compiled the skeleton pass with it and it worked!

LLVM/Clang version used 4.0.1

N.B.! Remember to cmake with paths to the built compilers and not the system ones!
