//===-- llvm/User.h - User class definition ----------------------*- C++ -*--=//

// This class defines the interface that one who 'use's a Value must implement.
// Each instance of the Value class keeps track of what User's have handles
// to it.
//
//  * Instructions are the largest class of User's.
//  * Constants may be users of other constants (think arrays and stuff)
