Detailed Description

StructType - Class to represent struct types. There are two different kinds of struct types: Literal structs and Identified structs.

Literal struct types (e.g. { i32, i32 }) are uniqued structurally, and must always have a body when created. You can get one of these by using one of the StructType::get() forms.

Identified structs (e.g. foo or %42) may optionally have a name and are not uniqued. The names for identified structs are managed at the LLVMContext level, so there can only be a single identified struct with a given name in a particular LLVMContext. Identified structs may also optionally be opaque (have no body specified). You get one of these by using one of the StructType::create() forms.

Independent of what kind of struct you have, the body of a struct type are laid out in memory consequtively with the elements directly one after the other (if the struct is packed) or (if not packed) with padding between the elements as defined by DataLayout (which is required to match what the code generator for a target expects).

StructType * StructType::get ( Type elt1,

StructType::get - This static method is a convenience method for creating structure types by specifying the elements as arguments. Note that this method always returns a non-packed struct, and requires at least one element type.

getName - Return the name for this struct type if it has an identity. This may return an empty string for an unnamed struct type. Do not call this on an literal type.
