pub struct ArrayType<'ctx> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

An ArrayType is the type of contiguous constants or variables.

Implementations§

Create ArrayType from LLVMTypeRef

Safety

Undefined behavior, if referenced type isn’t array type

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

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_type_size = i8_array_type.size_of();

Gets the alignment of this ArrayType. Value may vary depending on the target architecture.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_type_alignment = i8_array_type.get_alignment();

Creates a PointerType with this ArrayType for its element type.

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

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_ptr_type = i8_array_type.ptr_type(AddressSpace::default());

#[cfg(not(feature = "llvm15-0"))]
assert_eq!(i8_array_ptr_type.get_element_type().into_array_type(), i8_array_type);

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

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(i8_array_type.get_context(), context);

Creates a FunctionType with this ArrayType for its return type.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let fn_type = i8_array_type.fn_type(&[], false);

Creates an ArrayType with this ArrayType for its element type.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_array_type = i8_array_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(i8_array_array_type.len(), 3);
assert_eq!(i8_array_array_type.get_element_type().into_array_type(), i8_array_type);

Creates a constant ArrayValue.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let f32_type = context.f32_type();
let f32_array_type = f32_type.array_type(3);
let f32_array_val = f32_array_type.const_zero();
let f32_array_array = f32_array_type.const_array(&[f32_array_val, f32_array_val]);

assert!(f32_array_array.is_const());

Creates a constant zero value of this ArrayType.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_zero = i8_array_type.const_zero();

Gets the length of this ArrayType.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(i8_array_type.len(), 3);

Print the definition of an ArrayType to LLVMString

Creates an undefined instance of a ArrayType.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);
let i8_array_undef = i8_array_type.get_undef();

assert!(i8_array_undef.is_undef());

Gets the element type of this ArrayType.

Example
use inkwell::context::Context;

let context = Context::create();
let i8_type = context.i8_type();
let i8_array_type = i8_type.array_type(3);

assert_eq!(i8_array_type.get_element_type().into_int_type(), i8_type);
