Implementations

impl MetadataKindId

pub fn get_md_kind_id_in_context(context: &ContextRef, name: &str) -> Self

Get MetadataKindId by name in current Context. Useful for working with Metadata.

Details

Retrieves the metadata kind ID associated with a given name within a specific LLVM context.

This function wraps the LLVMGetMDKindIDInContext function from the LLVM core library. It returns the metadata kind ID corresponding to the provided name within the specified LLVM context. Metadata kinds in LLVM IR are used to attach additional information to various IR constructs, such as instructions or functions. Using this function allows for context-specific retrieval of metadata kind IDs.

Parameters

• context: A reference to the ContextRef in which the metadata kind ID will be retrieved.
• name: A string slice (&str) representing the name of the metadata kind.

Returns

Returns a MetadataKindId representing the ID associated with the provided metadata kind name within the specified context.

pub fn get_md_kind_id(name: &str) -> Self

Parameters

• name: A string slice (&str) representing the name of the metadata kind.

Returns

Returns a MetadataKindId representing the ID associated with the provided metadata kind name.
