I'm playing with a little interpreter, which wants to think of values as signed. It is a toy and nothing will probably come of it, but it made more sense to have a class to represent arbitrary-width signed values than use a pair<apint,bool> everywhere. Perhaps it will be useful for other people too. -Chris _______________________________________________ llvm-commits mailing list llvm-commits@cs.uiuc.edu http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvm-commits
