.. _ir-layer: ====================== IR layer---llvmlite.ir ====================== .. module:: llvmlite.ir :synopsis: Classes for building the LLVM intermediate representation of functions. The :mod:`llvmlite.ir` module contains classes and utilities to build the LLVM :ref:`intermediate representation <intermediate representation>` (IR) of native functions. The provided APIs may sometimes look like LLVM's C++ APIs, but they never call into LLVM, unless otherwise noted. Instead, they construct a pure Python representation of the IR. To use this module, you should be familiar with the concepts in the `LLVM Language Reference <https://releases.llvm.org/11.0.0/docs/LangRef.html>`_. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 types values modules ir-builder examples
