Readme

llvm-hs is a set of Haskell bindings for LLVM http://llvm.org/. Unlike other current Haskell bindings, it uses an ADT to represent LLVM IR (http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html), and so offers two advantages: it handles almost all of the stateful complexities of using the LLVM API to build IR; and it supports moving IR not only from Haskell into LLVM C++ objects, but the other direction - from LLVM C++ into Haskell.
