Use of LLVM is independent of the CoreImage Kernel Language. In essence, LLVM is an optimizing compiler so it can be used to optimize the software implementation of Core Image, but has no direct impact on the language itself.

Unfortunately, we can't comment on future directions just yet. Usually this type of info (if available) is communicated at WWDC.

Hello,

I thought that Leopard's use of LLVM would also end in improving the Core Image Kernel Language. I mean, the Core image Kernel language is actually only a subset of GLSL, and does not support all functions (noise, mat...). I believed that in Leopard, it would be more compatible. But the Core image kernel language reference documentation has not been updated in Leopard.

Are there any plans in a near future to improve that ? Is LLVM related to the Core Image Kernel language in any way (maybe I misunderstood the problem) ?

Regards,

Pierre Chatelier
