= LLVM

Author:: Jeremy Voorhis

License:: BSD 3-clause (see LICENSE)

This package contains Ruby bindings to the LLVM api, enabling users to
make use of LLVM's optimization passes and JIT compilation for
implementing compiled DSLs, callback functions, or fast Ruby method
implementations.



ruby-llvm has been tested on Mac OS X 10.6 using the following Ruby interpreters:

* MRI 1.8.7-p174
* MRI 1.9.2-p180
* JRuby 1.4.0

If using MRI, ffi >= 1.0.7 is recommended.

== Requirements
* LLVM 2.9, including libLLVM-2.9 (compile LLVM with --enable-shared)

== About version numbers

The first two digits of ruby-llvm's version number refer to the required
major and minor version of LLVM. The third digit refers to the ruby-llvm
release itself. Because LLVM's api changes often, this coupling between
LLVM and ruby-llvm versions is useful.
