//===-- llvm/GlobalValue.h - Class to represent a global value ---*- C++ -*--=//
//
// This file is a common base class of all globally definable objects.  As such,
// it is subclassed by GlobalVariable and by Method.  This is used because you
// can do certain things with these global objects that you can't do to anything
// else.  For example, use the address of one as a constant.
