# LLVM Rust bindings

This library is intended to be a safe wrapper around the [llvm-sys bindings](https://crates.io/crates/llvm-sys).

It is currently very incomplete however it is possible to use this and `llvm-sys` at the same time, most structures

are able to be converted into `LLVM*Ref`

If you find that you need a functionality thats only present in `llvm-sys` please file an issue.

A simple JIT example is available [here](examples/jit.rs).

## Safety

While it is better to use this library over `llvm-sys` directly, this library is still not completely safe. Some functions still return `LLVM*Ref` types, which are type aliases for raw pointers. Until I finish converting these raw pointers into safe wrapper types, there is still a possibility for unsafe behavior, although in practice this is rare.
