10 // This template class is used to define instruction visitors in a typesafe
11 // manner without having to use lots of casts and a big switch statement (in
12 // your code that is). The win here is that if instructions are added in the
13 // future, they will be added to the InstVisitor<T> class, allowing you to
14 // automatically support them (if you handle on of their superclasses).
16 // Note that this library is specifically designed as a template to avoid
17 // virtual function call overhead. Defining and using an InstVisitor is just as
18 // efficient as having your own switch statement over the instruction opcode.
21 // You define InstVisitors from inheriting from the InstVisitor base class
22 // and "overriding" functions in your class. I say "overriding" because this
23 // class is defined in terms of statically resolved overloading, not virtual
24 // functions. As an example, here is a visitor that counts the number of malloc
25 // instructions processed:
27 // // Declare the class. Note that we derive from InstVisitor instantiated
28 // // with _our new subclasses_ type.
30 // struct CountMallocVisitor : public InstVisitor<CountMallocVisitor> {
32 // CountMallocVisitor() : Count(0) {}
34 // void visitMallocInst(MallocInst *MI) { ++Count; }
37 // And this class would be used like this:
38 // CountMallocVistor CMV;
39 // CMV.visit(function);
40 // NumMallocs = CMV.Count;
42 // Returning a value from the visitation function:
43 // The InstVisitor class takes an optional second template argument that
44 // specifies what type the instruction visitation functions should return. If
45 // you specify this, you *MUST* provide an implementation of visitInstruction
