module Mom

  # As reminder: a statically resolved call (the simplest one) becomes three Mom Instructions.
  # Ie: MessageSetup,ArgumentTransfer,SimpleCall
  #
  # MessageSetup does Setup before a call can be made, acquiring and filling the message
  # basically. Only after MessageSetup is the next_message safe to use.
  #
  # The Factory (instane kept by Space) keeps a linked list of Messages,
  # from which we take and currenty also return.
  #
  # Message setup set the name to the called method's name, and also set the arg and local
  # types on the new message, currently for debugging but later for dynamic checking
  #
  # The only difference between the setup of a static call and a dynamic one is where
  # the method comes from. A static, or simple call, passes the method, but a dynamic
  # call passes the cache_entry that holds the resolved method.
  #
  # In either case, the method is loaded and name,frame and args set
  #
