Developer FAQ

Under what license is this released?

BSD (3-clause license).

Who is maintaining this project?

Alon Mishne.

How is Intel connected to this project?

This project started as an internal project at Intel and was later donated to the open-source community.

What libraries or frameworks are used?

This plugin is built on top of Eclipse's Xtext framework.

Does this plugin use actual code from LLVM?

Nope.

Does this plugin invoke any LLVM executables?

Nope.

Is it okay to submit a patch for "refactoring" purposes only?

Yes. If you think a certain piece of code could have been written better, please submit a patch.

Where are the tests?

Theoretically, they are under the com.intel.llvm.ireditor.tests project. In practice, there are no tests yet.

What is the source of the LLVM IR grammar?

It is manually written based on the LLVM Language Reference Manual and on experimentation with the actual LLVM executables when the manual was unclear.

What is the "visualizer" project?

It's an effort to add a new Eclipse "view" to the plugin which will contain a live (updated when the code is updated) graph visualization of basic blocks in the current function. It's still far from being ready so it's not a part of the plugin update site.
