# A Label is the only legal target for a branch (in Mom, in Risc a BinaryCode is ok too)
#
# In the dynamic view (runtime) where the instructions form a graph,
# branches fan out, Labels collect. In other words a branch is the place where
# several roads lead off, and a Label where several roads arrive.
#
# A Label has a name which is mainly used for debugging.
#
class Label < Instruction
attr_reader :name
def initialize(name)
@name = name
end
def to_s
"Label: #{name}"
end
# A Mom::Label converts one2one to a Risc::Label. So in a way it could not be more
# simple.
# Alas, since almost by definition several roads lead to this label, all those
# several converted instructions must also point to the identical label on the
# risc level.
#
# This is achieved by caching the created Risc::Label in an instance variable.
# All branches that lead to this label can thus safely call the to_risc and
# whoever calls first triggers the labels creation, but all get the same label.
#
# Off course some specific place still has to be responsible for actually
# adding the label to the instruction list (usually an if/while)
