instead of just using "unsigned". This gives us more flexibility in changing
the definition of the handle later, and is more self-documenting.
Added tracking of block stack in the Deserializer. Now clients can query
if they are still within a block using the methods GetCurrentBlockLocation()
and FinishedBlock().

array of pointers to not allocate a second array to contain the pointer ids.
Fixed bug in the same member function where deserialized pointers were
not being registered with the backpatcher.

to group the pointer IDs together in the bitstream before their referenced
contents (which will lend itself to more efficient encoding).

the target pointer to be passed by reference. This can result in less
typing, as the object to be deserialized can be inferred from the
argument.

Deserializer.
There were issues with Visual C++ barfing when instantiating
SerializeTrait<T> when "T" was an abstract class AND
SerializeTrait<T>::ReadVal was *never* called:
template <typename T>
struct SerializeTrait {
<SNIP>
static inline T ReadVal(Deserializer& D) { T::ReadVal(D); }
<SNIP>
};
Visual C++ would complain about "T" being an abstract class, even
though ReadVal was never instantiated (although one of the other
member functions were).
Removing this from the trait is not a big deal. It was used hardly
ever, and users who want "read-by-value" deserialization can simply
call the appropriate methods directly instead of relying on
trait-based-dispatch. The trait dispatch for
serialization/deserialization is simply sugar in many cases (like this
one).

flag in the **key** of the backpatch map, as opposed to the mapped
value which contains either the final pointer, or a pointer to a chain
of pointers that need to be backpatched. The bit flag was moved to
the key because we were erroneously assuming that the backpatched
pointers would be at an alignment of >= 2 bytes, which obviously
doesn't work for character strings. Now we just steal the bit from the key.
llvm-svn: 43595
just like pointers, except that they cannot be backpatched. This
means that references are essentially non-owning pointers where the
referred object must be deserialized prior to the reference being
deserialized. Because of the nature of references, this ordering of
objects is always possible.
Fixed a bug in backpatching code (returning the backpatched pointer
would accidentally include a bit flag).
llvm-svn: 43570
eager backpatching instead of waithing until all objects have been
deserialized. This allows us to reduce the memory footprint needed
for backpatching.
llvm-svn: 43422
calling member functions of the target type to perform type-specific
serialization.
Added version of ReadPtr that allows passing references to uintptr_t
(useful for smart pointers).
