Function Documentation

ir_type* find_pointer_type_to_type ( ir_type * tp )

Returns the first pointer type that has as points_to tp.

Not efficient: O(#types). If not found returns firm_unknown_type.

ir_type* get_pointer_points_to_type ( const ir_type * pointer )

Returns the type to which a pointer points to.

const tp_op* get_tpop_pointer ( void )

Returns type opcode for pointer type.

int is_Pointer_type ( const ir_type * pointer )

Returns true if a type is a pointer type.

Creates a new type pointer with debug information.

ir_type* new_type_pointer ( ir_type * points_to )

Creates a new type pointer.

void set_pointer_points_to_type	(	ir_type *	pointer,
		ir_type *	tp
	)

Sets the type to which a pointer points to.

This type opcode marks that the corresponding type is a pointer type.

It contains a reference to the type the pointer points to. This struct is dynamically allocated but constant for the lifetime of the library.
