- New PrettyStackTrace, crashes of llvm tools should give some indication of what the compiler was doing at the time of the crash (e.g. running a pass), and print out command line arguments.
- StringRef class, Twine class.
- New WeakVH and AssertingVH and CallbackVH classes.
- New llvm/ADT/Triple class.
- llvm_report_error() error handling API (llvm/Support/ErrorHandling.h)
- New llvm/System/Atomic.h, llvm/System/RWMutex.h for portable atomic ops, rw locks.
- New SourceMgr, SMLoc classes for simple parsers with caret diagnostics and #include support, (used by
- tablegen, llvm-mc, the .ll parser, FileCheck, etc)

+- New
+ PrettyStackTrace classes allows crashes of llvm tools (and applications
+ that integrate them) to provide more detailed indication of what the
+ compiler was doing at the time of the crash (e.g. running a pass).
+ At the top level for each LLVM tool, it includes the command line arguments.
+
+- New StringRef
+ and Twine classes
+ make operations on character ranges and
+ string concatenation to be more efficient. StringRef is just a const
+ char* with a length, Twine is a light-weight rope.
+- LLVM has new WeakVH, AssertingVH, and CallbackVH classes, which make it
+ easier to write LLVM IR transformations. WeakVH is automatically drops to
+ null when the referenced Value is deleted, and is updated across a
+ replaceAllUsesWith operation. AssertingVH aborts the program if the
+ referenced value is destroyed while it is being referenced. CallbackVH is
+ a customizable class for handling value references. See ValueHandle.h
+ for more information.
+- The new 'Triple
+ ' class centralizes a lot of logic that reasons about target
+ triples.
+- The new '
+ llvm_report_error()' set of APIs allows tools to embed the LLVM
+ optimizer and backend and recover from previously unrecoverable errors.
+- LLVM has new abstractions for atomic operations
+ and reader/writer
+ locks.
+- LLVM has new
+ SourceMgr and SMLoc classes which implement caret diagnostics and basic
+ include stack processing for simple parsers. It is used by tablegen,
+ llvm-mc, the .ll parser and FileCheck.
