+
+Sometimes you may find yourself in a situation where enabling <tt>-debug</tt>
+just turns on <b>too much</b> information (such as when working on the code
+generator). If you want to enable debug information with more fine-grained
+control, you define the <tt>DEBUG_TYPE</tt> macro and the <tt>-debug</tt> only
+option as follows:<p>
+
+<pre>
+ ...
+ DEBUG(std::cerr << "No debug type\n");
+ #undef DEBUG_TYPE
+ #define DEBUG_TYPE "foo"
+ DEBUG(std::cerr << "'foo' debug type\n");
+ #undef DEBUG_TYPE
+ #define DEBUG_TYPE "bar"
+ DEBUG(std::cerr << "'bar' debug type\n");
+ #undef DEBUG_TYPE
+ #define DEBUG_TYPE ""
+ DEBUG(std::cerr << "No debug type (2)\n");
+ ...
+</pre><p>
+
+Then you can run your pass like this:<p>
+
+<pre>
+ $ opt < a.bc > /dev/null -mypass
+ <no output>
+ $ opt < a.bc > /dev/null -mypass -debug
+ No debug type
+ 'foo' debug type
+ 'bar' debug type
+ No debug type (2)
+ $ opt < a.bc > /dev/null -mypass -debug-only=foo
+ 'foo' debug type
+ $ opt < a.bc > /dev/null -mypass -debug-only=bar
+ 'bar' debug type
+ $
+</pre><p>
+
+Of course, in practice, you should only set <tt>DEBUG_TYPE</tt> at the top of a
+file, to specify the debug type for the entire module (if you do this before you
+<tt>#include "Support/Debug.h"</tt>, you don't have to insert the ugly
+<tt>#undef</tt>'s). Also, you should use names more meaningful that "foo" and
+"bar", because there is no system in place to ensure that names do not conflict:
+if two different modules use the same string, they will all be turned on when
+the name is specified. This allows all, say, instruction scheduling, debug
+information to be enabled with <tt>-debug-type=InstrSched</tt>, even if the
+source lives in multiple files.<p>

It's also possible to turn a class pointer into the corresponding
iterator. Usually, this conversion is quite inexpensive. The
following code snippet illustrates use of the conversion constructors
void printNextInstruction(Instruction* inst) {
BasicBlock::iterator it(inst);
++it; // after this line, it refers to the instruction after *inst.
- if(it != inst->getParent()->end()) cerr << *it << "\n";

}

Of course, this example is strictly pedagogical, because it'd be much

you'd do it if you didn't have <tt>InstVisitor</tt> around. In

we wish to insert before <tt>*pi</tt>, we do the following:
<pre>
-BasicBlock* pb = ...;
-Instruction* pi = ...;
-Instruction* newInst = new Instruction(...);
-pb->getInstList().insert(pi, newInst); // inserts newInst before pi in pb
+ BasicBlock *pb = ...;
+ Instruction *pi = ...;
+ Instruction *newInst = new Instruction(...);
+ pb->getInstList().insert(pi, newInst); // inserts newInst before pi in pb
</pre>
</p>
Thus, we could have accomplished the same thing as the above code
without being given a <tt>BasicBlock</tt> by doing:
<pre>
-Instruction* pi = ...;
-Instruction* newInst = new Instruction(...);
-pi->getParent()->getInstList().insert(pi, newInst);
