Member Function Documentation

bool sail::LoopInvocationInstruction::is_removable (  )  [virtual]

An instruction is removable if it's not present in the original source code, but introduced in the translation from the high-level language to the low-level language. For instance, if **x is an expression used in the original code, the low-level language will introduce a temporary t=*x; such instructions are "removable" for printing purposes.

Implements sail::Instruction.
