llmvlite bug

[akneni]

Firstly, I want to say I'm a huge fan of this concept! It has the potential to eliminate the infamous 2 language problem in python.

However, I am getting a bug when trying to use this library.

from pythoc import compile, i32

@compile
def add(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32:
    return a + b

def main():
    result = add(40, 2)
    print(result)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise RuntimeError(
RuntimeError: llvmlite.binding.initialize() is deprecated and will be removed. LLVM initialization is now handled automatically. Please remove calls to this function from your code and check for other behavioral changes that may have occurred due to LLVM updates.

I tried a few different things like llvmlite.binding.initialize = lambda _: pass, but nothing seemed to be able to work. I would appreciate any pointers/patches.

Update, it seems like I just needed to downgrade my llvmlite version. Rather than do this manually, could you add the following to pyproject.toml?

[project]
dependencies = [
    "llvmlite>=0.40,<0.43"
]

Could you please provide which version you run the llvmlite and get the error above? It is okay to run llvmlite 0.44 on my machine, so I already put llvmlite<0.45. llvmlite 0.45 does have the problem. Will address that soon.

llvmlite 0.46
