Struct inkwell::types::FloatType

pub struct FloatType<'ctx> { /* private fields */ }

A FloatType is the type of a floating point constant or variable.

Implementations

impl<'ctx> FloatType<'ctx>

pub unsafe fn new(float_type: LLVMTypeRef) -> Self

Create FloatType from LLVMTypeRef

Safety

Undefined behavior, if referenced type isn’t float type

pub fn fn_type( self, param_types: &[BasicMetadataTypeEnum<'ctx>], is_var_args: bool ) -> FunctionType<'ctx>

Creates a FunctionType with this FloatType for its return type.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let fn_type = f32_type.fn_type(&[], false);

pub fn array_type(self, size: u32) -> ArrayType<'ctx>

Creates an ArrayType with this FloatType for its element type.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_array_type = f32_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(f32_array_type.len(), 3);
assert_eq!(f32_array_type.get_element_type().into_float_type(), f32_type);

pub fn vec_type(self, size: u32) -> VectorType<'ctx>

Creates a VectorType with this FloatType for its element type.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vector_type = f32_type.vec_type(3);

assert_eq!(f32_vector_type.get_size(), 3);

pub fn const_float(self, value: f64) -> FloatValue<'ctx>

Creates a FloatValue representing a constant value of this FloatType. It will be automatically assigned this FloatType’s Context.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;

// Local Context
let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_value = f32_type.const_float(42.);

pub fn const_float_from_string(self, slice: &str) -> FloatValue<'ctx>

Create a FloatValue from a string. LLVM provides no error handling here, so this may produce unexpected results and should not be relied upon for validation.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;
use inkwell::values::AnyValue;

let context = Context::create();
let f64_type = context.f64_type();
let f64_val = f64_type.const_float_from_string("3.6");

assert_eq!(f64_val.print_to_string().to_string(), "double 3.600000e+00");

let f64_val = f64_type.const_float_from_string("3.");

assert_eq!(f64_val.print_to_string().to_string(), "double 3.000000e+00");

let f64_val = f64_type.const_float_from_string("3");

assert_eq!(f64_val.print_to_string().to_string(), "double 3.000000e+00");

let f64_val = f64_type.const_float_from_string("");

assert_eq!(f64_val.print_to_string().to_string(), "double 0.000000e+00");

let f64_val = f64_type.const_float_from_string("3.asd");

assert_eq!(f64_val.print_to_string().to_string(), "double 0x7FF0000000000000");

pub fn const_zero(self) -> FloatValue<'ctx>

Creates a constant zero value of this FloatType.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;
use inkwell::values::AnyValue;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_zero = f32_type.const_zero();

assert_eq!(f32_zero.print_to_string().to_string(), "float 0.000000e+00");

pub fn size_of(self) -> IntValue<'ctx>

Gets the size of this FloatType. Value may vary depending on the target architecture.

Example

let f32_type = context.f32_type();

assert_eq!(f32_type.get_context(), context);

pub fn ptr_type(self, address_space: AddressSpace) -> PointerType<'ctx>

👎Deprecated: Starting from version 15.0, LLVM doesn’t differentiate between pointer types. Use Context::ptr_type instead.

Creates a PointerType with this FloatType for its element type.

Example

use inkwell::context::Context;
use inkwell::AddressSpace;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_ptr_type = f32_type.ptr_type(AddressSpace::default());
