MCJIT and ExecutionEngine continue to be supported, though ORC should be preferred for new projects. +Changes to the C++ APIs +----------------------- + +Three of the IR library methods related to debugging information for +functions and methods have changed their prototypes: + + DIBuilder::createMethod + DIBuilder::createFunction + DIBuilder::createTempFunctionFwdDecl + +In all cases, several individual parameters were removed, and replaced +by a single 'SPFlags' (subprogram flags) parameter. The individual +parameters are: 'isLocalToUnit'; 'isDefinition'; 'isOptimized'; and +for 'createMethod', 'Virtuality'. The new 'SPFlags' parameter has a +default value equivalent to passing 'false' for the three 'bool' +parameters, and zero (non-virtual) to the 'Virtuality' parameter. For +any old-style API call that passed 'true' or a non-zero virtuality to +these methods, you will need to substitute the correct 'SPFlags' value. +The helper method 'DISubprogram::toSPFlags()' might be useful in making +this conversion.
