Brain - LLVM IR inline

[luizperes]

I was thinking of having a possibility to add LLVM IR.
That would be very useful for the creation of libraries for Brain. // using functions in the future
Any considerations?

This link here says that it is possible to link Brain with C files!!!

Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice! You'll attach this in Brain?

[rafaelcn]

Yes, he will :3

I will study this feature thouroughly, thinking better later, I'm re-organizing my thoughts together to implement LLVM IR, instead. This new approach came in my mind for two reasons.

• First, that will take one layer off from the process of compiling.
• Second, Brain will be compatible with any language that is LLVM-IR-based.

Well, I think we should review this issue, @luizperes has already implemented this great feature and now it provides us a great feature! 💯 🎉

[luizperes]

It is prepared to be implemented, although it is not fully implemented. It works only for DebugExpr, InputExpr and OutputExpr so far. This feature is not going to be included on Brain 1.0, once we are running out of time.

Therefore I will reopen this issue and take it out from the Milestone 1.0 // that will be implemented if we have time

Also taken off milestone 1.1
