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.

9When the blog post is ready this file will be updated with a link to the post.

11The source code in this directory demonstrates the second version of the
12program, now modified to implement a sort of 'lazy' compilation.
13
14The toy-jit.cpp file contains a version of the original JIT-based source code
15that has been modified to disable most stderr output for timing purposes.
16
17This directory contain a Makefile that allow the code to be built in a
18standalone manner, independent of the larger LLVM build infrastructure. To build
19the program you will need to have 'clang++' and 'llvm-config' in your path. If
20you attempt to build using the LLVM 3.3 release, some minor modifications will
21be required.
22
23This directory also contains a Python script that may be used to generate random
24input for the program and test scripts to capture data for rough performance
25comparisons.
