| 25 | DESCRIPTION |
| 26 | </h3> |
| 27 | |
| 28 | The extract command takes the name of a function and extracts it from the |
| 29 | specified LLVM bytecode file. It is primarily used as a debugging tool to |
| 30 | reduce test cases from larger programs that are triggering a bug. |
| John Criswell | ac41ea2 | 2003-09-30 22:55:44 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 31 | <p> |
| 32 | |
| 33 | In addition to extracting the bytecode of the specified function, extract will |
| 34 | also remove unreachable global variables, prototypes, and unused types. |
| 35 | <p> |
| 36 | |
| 37 | The extract command will read its input from standard input if filename is |
| 38 | omitted or if filename is -. The output is always written to standard output. |
