declareFunction: Declare a function in a module

In doktorschiwago/Rllvm2: Interface to llvm for dynamically compiling native code.

Description

This function slightly simplifies declaring a function/routine to a module so that it can be referenced in the instructions we create. This is for an external routine, e.g. in a 3rd party library, or one that we will define later.

Usage

declareFunction(def, name, mod, linkage = ExternalLinkage)

Arguments

def	the function description which is either a list with two elements giving the returnType and parameter types or a flat list of all the types with the first one being the return type
name	the name of the function
mod	the module in which to declare the function
linkage	whether the routine is external or static or whatever type of linkage.
