First, LLVM comes in two pieces. The first piece is the LLVM suite. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to use the low -level virtual machine. It contains an assembler, disassembler, bytecode -analyzer, and bytecode optimizer. It also contains a test suite that can be +level virtual machine. It contains an assembler, disassembler, bitcode +analyzer and bitcode optimizer. It also contains a test suite that can be used to test the LLVM tools and the GCC front end.
The second piece is the GCC front end. This component provides a version of -GCC that compiles C and C++ code into LLVM bytecode. Currently, the GCC front -end is a modified version of GCC 3.4 (we track the GCC 3.4 development). Once -compiled into LLVM bytecode, a program can be manipulated with the LLVM tools +GCC that compiles C and C++ code into LLVM bitcode. Currently, the GCC front +end uses the GCC parser to convert code to LLVM. Once +compiled into LLVM bitcode, a program can be manipulated with the LLVM tools from the LLVM suite.
