Expand description

A VectorType is the type of a multiple value SIMD constant or variable.

Implementations

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

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

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

assert!(f32_vec_val.is_constant_vector());

Creates a constant zero value of this VectorType.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(7);

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(3);
let f32_vec_undef = f32_vec_type.get_undef();

assert!(f32_vec_undef.is_undef());

Gets the element type of this VectorType.

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);
assert_eq!(f32_vector_type.get_element_type().into_float_type(), f32_type);

Creates a PointerType with this VectorType for its element type.

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

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(3);
let f32_vec_ptr_type = f32_vec_type.ptr_type(AddressSpace::Generic);

assert_eq!(f32_vec_ptr_type.get_element_type().into_vector_type(), f32_vec_type);

Creates a FunctionType with this VectorType for its return type.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(3);
let fn_type = f32_vec_type.fn_type(&[], false);

Creates an ArrayType with this VectorType for its element type.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(3);
let f32_vec_array_type = f32_vec_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(f32_vec_array_type.len(), 3);
assert_eq!(f32_vec_array_type.get_element_type().into_vector_type(), f32_vec_type);

Creates a constant ArrayValue.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;
use inkwell::types::VectorType;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_val = f32_type.const_float(0.);
let f32_val2 = f32_type.const_float(2.);
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(2);
let f32_vec_val = VectorType::const_vector(&[f32_val, f32_val2]);
let f32_array = f32_vec_type.const_array(&[f32_vec_val, f32_vec_val]);

assert!(f32_array.is_const());

Gets a reference to the Context this VectorType was created in.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_vec_type = f32_type.vec_type(7);
