This may be a little off-topic but does anyone know a good and up-to-date tutorial for using LLVM in C language?

  LLVM's C is compiler clang. You can find it from http://clang.llvm.org/ http://clang.llvm.org/ In many cases it's just drop-in replacement for gcc.

    I rather understood it that they wanted to know whether there is a C API to use LLVM, so perhaps something like this: https://pauladamsmith.com/blog/2015/01/how-to-get-started-with-llvm-c-api.html https://pauladamsmith.com/blog/2015/01/how-to-get-started-wi...

      That's exactly what I am looking for but it's almost two years old and I think I tried it a few months back and got lots of errors. I was hoping to find a more up-to-date tutorial. Unfortunately LLVM people don't pay much attention to documentation and tutorials for their product.

        I've been there. Pretty much the only way is to just read the C api header and figure things out from there. It does contain comments, which are mostly helpful, but sometimes incomplete or out of date.

      This series may also be relevant, but I never read it in full: https://msm.runhello.com/p/category/plt/no-compiler https://msm.runhello.com/p/category/plt/no-compiler.
