<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
|
2003-09-11 19:58:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00
|
|
|
The <tt>llvm-as</tt> command is the LLVM assembler. It reads a file containing
|
|
|
|
human readable LLVM assembly language, translates it to LLVM bytecode, and
|
|
|
|
writes the result into a file or to standard output.
|

|
|
|
<p>
|
2003-09-11 19:58:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00
|
|
|
If filename is omitted or is -, then <tt>llvm-as</tt> reads its input from
|
|
|
|
standard input.
|
2003-09-26 02:59:00 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>

|
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00
|
|
|
If an output file is not specified with the <tt>-o</tt> option, then
|
|
|
|
<tt>llvm-as</tt> sends its output to a file or standard output by the following
|
|
|
|
logic:
|
2003-09-26 02:59:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
If the input is standard input, then the output is standard output.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
If the input is a file that ends with .ll, then the output file is of
|
|
|
|
the same name, except that the suffix is changed to .bc.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
If the input is a file that does not end with the .ll suffix, then the
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00
|
|
|
output file has the same name as the input file, except that the .bc
|
|
|
|
suffix is appended.
|

|

<p>
|
|
|
|
</ul>

<h3>OPTIONS</h3>
|
2003-09-11 19:58:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li> -f
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00
|
|
|
Force overwrite. Normally, <tt>llvm-as</tt> will refuse to overwrite an
|
|
|
|
output file that already exists. With this option, <tt>llvm-as</tt>
|
|
|
|
will overwrite the output file and replace it with new bytecode.
|
2003-09-11 19:58:03 +00:00

|
|
|
|
<br>
|
2003-10-07 20:17:24 +00:00

|
|
|
|
sends its output to standard output.
