LLVMC - A Generic Compiler Driver for the LLVM Project

This paper describes a generic compiler driver, LLVMC, which essentially plays the same role for LLVM as the gcc program does for GCC, but is designed to be customizable and extensible. A simple TableGen-based domain-specific language used to develop LLVMC plugins is presented. The driver is a part of the LLVM project, but can also be used in other contexts.
