# 4.1. Initialization and finalization

These functions need only be called once per process invocation.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize`()

  Initialize the LLVM core.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize_all_targets`()

  Initialize all targets. Necessary before targets can be looked up via the `Target` class.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize_all_asmprinters`()

  Initialize all code generators. Necessary before generating any assembly or machine code via the `TargetMachine.emit_object()` and `TargetMachine.emit_assembly()` methods.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize_native_target`()

  Initialize the native (host) target. Calling this function once is necessary before doing any code generation.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize_native_asmprinter`()

  Initialize the native assembly printer.

`llvmlite.binding.` `initialize_native_asmparser`()

  Initialize the native assembly parser. This is necessary for inline assembly to work.

`llvmlite.binding.` `shutdown`()

  Shutdown the LLVM core.

`llvmlite.binding.` `llvm_version_info`

  A three-integer tuple representing the LLVM version number, for example `(3, 7, 1)`. Since LLVM is statically linked into the `llvmlite` DLL, this is guaranteed to represent the true LLVM version in use.
