Hi!
I have this scenario:
executionEngine->getPointerToFunction fails because a symbol can not be resolved.
What can I do to catch this error? is an exception thrown? currently the program simply
exits. returning NULL would be ok too.

Can you be more precise about where the error occurs? Depending on
where it is, LLVM may or may not be able to propagate the error
safely.

I cannot say where inside llvm the error occurs, but imagine you have a module added to
an execution engine and then call executionEngine->getPointerToFunction
while the code in your module calls a function that has no implementation. it is obvious that
llvm has to report an error, but currently the program exits and the documentation of
getPointerToFunction does not say what happens if such an error occurs.
If this still does not help or the reported behaviour is atypical, I can step into it and check what llvm does.
