Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I have not found a way to get a GlobalValue from a PointerValue without using unsafe { GlobalValue::new(...) } Describe the solution you'd like Add some nice conversion methods, maybe also an enum that covers all LLVM types that can be a LLVMValueRef. Describe possible drawbacks to your solution None Describe alternatives you've considered Just use unsafe, or have a HashMap from all GlobalValues to the corresponding PointerValues.
