I need some part of my julia code to be executed at run time and be loaded as llvm IR (or assembly). It is allowed to be IR or assembly code but not julia source code or c source code.
Are there other options like the output-bc option that can work for me? What other approaches I can consider? Thanks for all the work making julia great!!
