This patch replaces any_cast with llvm::any_cast. This in turn allows us
to gracefully switch to std::any in future by forwarding llvm::Any and
llvm::any_cast to:
using Any = std::any;
template <class T> T *any_cast(Any *Value) {
return std::any_cast<T>(Value);
}
respectively.
Without this patch, it's ambiguous whether any_cast refers to
std::any_cast or llvm::any_cast.
As an added bonus, this patch makes it easier to mechanically replace
llvm::any_cast with std::any_cast without affecting other occurrences of
any_cast (e.g. in libcxx).
This facilitates replacing llvm::Any with std::any.
- Deprecate any_isa in favor of using any_cast(Any*) and checking for
nullptr because C++17 has no any_isa.
- Remove the assert from any_cast(Any*), so it returns nullptr if the
type is not correct. This aligns it with std::any_cast(any*).
Use any_cast(Any*) throughout LLVM instead of checks with any_isa.
This is the first part outlined in

This patch implements Any::has_value for consistency with std::any in
C++17.
My plan is to deprecate Any::hasValue after migrating all of its uses
to Any::has_value. Since I am about to do so, this patch simply
replaces hasValue with has_value in the unit test instead of adding
tests for has_value.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.
