Using ANTLR4 with LLVM? (specifically llvmlite, a python package)

[Exedys Digital]

Hello everyone!

I am working on my own language and am looking to generate LLVM machine code from my language and was finding it a bit tricky to connect my compiled ANTLR4 lexer and parser with an LLVMlite compiler. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to solve this issue?

Thanks.

Hi, I suggest using a visitor to walk the tree and generate IR. This will put most of the complexity in your visitor, but you can probably create some utility functions to reduce the complexity.
