# `llvm-pretty` | ||
|
||
A pretty printing library that was inspired by the LLVM binding by Lennart | ||
Augustsson. The library provides a monadic interface to a pretty printer, that | ||
allows functions to be defined and called, generating the corresponding LLVM | ||
assembly when run. | ||
|
||
## LLVM language feature support | ||
|
||
Currently, `llvm-pretty` supports LLVM versions up through 17. As a result of | ||
the broad version coverage, the `llvm-pretty` AST is a superset of all versions | ||
of the LLVM AST. This means that the manner in which certain information is | ||
presented in the `llvm-pretty` AST (e.g., during pretty printing) will be | ||
different depending on the LLVM version used to originate the information. | ||
Conversely, it is possible to construct an `llvm-pretty` AST that cannot be | ||
represented in a specific (or any) LLVM version. | ||
|
||
`llvm-pretty` strives to support a reasonable variety of [LLVM language | ||
features](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html), but there are places where our | ||
coverage of the LLVM language is incomplete. If you need a LLVM feature that is | ||
not currently supported by `llvm-pretty`, please [file an | ||
issue](https://github.com/elliottt/llvm-pretty/issues/new). | ||
|
||
## `llvm-pretty` versus `llvm-pretty-bc-parser` | ||
|
||
`llvm-pretty` supports almost everything that one would want to do with LLVM | ||
ASTs. One notable exception is parsing: `llvm-pretty` deliberately does not | ||
support parsing an LLVM module AST from a bitcode file. This functionality is | ||
factored out into a separate | ||
[`llvm-pretty-bc-parser`](https://github.com/GaloisInc/llvm-pretty-bc-parser) | ||
library. `llvm-pretty-bc-parser` generally tries to stay in sync with all of | ||
the LLVM language features that `llvm-pretty` supports, but it may be the case | ||
that some valid `llvm-pretty` ASTs cannot be parsed by `llvm-pretty-bc-parser`. | ||
If you encounter an occurrence of this issue, please [file an | ||
issue](https://github.com/GaloisInc/llvm-pretty-bc-parser/issues/new) at the | ||
`llvm-pretty-bc-parser` issue tracker. |
