//===-- llvm/Type.h - Classes for handling data types ------------*- C++ -*--=//
//
// This file contains the declaration of the Type class.  For more "Type" type
// stuff, look in DerivedTypes.h and Opt/ConstantHandling.h
//
// Note that instances of the Type class are immutable: once they are created,
// they are never changed.  Also note that only one instance of a particular 
// type is ever created.  Thus seeing if two types are equal is a matter of 
// doing a trivial pointer comparison.
//
// Types, once allocated, are never free'd.
