5The files in this directory are meant to accompany the first in a series of
6three blog posts that describe the process of porting the Kaleidoscope tutorial
7to use the MCJIT execution engine instead of the older JIT engine.

9The source code in this directory combines all previous versions, including the
10old JIT-based implementation, into a single file for easy comparison with
11command line options to select between the various possibilities.

13To build the program you will need to have 'clang++' and 'llvm-config' in your
14path. If you attempt to build using the LLVM 3.3 release, some minor
15modifications will be required.

17This directory also contains a Python script that may be used to generate random
18input for the program and test scripts to capture data for rough performance
19comparisons. Another Python script will split generated input files into
20definitions and function calls for the purpose of testing the IR input and
21caching facilities.
