This type needs to be refined whenever the class IllegalValue
is refined or the type DomainValue is refined.

Abstracts over the concrete type of ReturnAddressValue. Needs to be fixed
by some sub-trait/sub-class. In the simplest case (i.e., when neither the
Value trait nor the ReturnAddressValue trait was refined) it is sufficient
to write:

Represents a value that has no well defined state/type. Such values are the result of a join of two incompatible values and are generally only found in registers (in the locals) and then identify a value that is dead.

Stores a single return address (i.e., a program counter/index into the code array).
Though the framework completely handles all aspects related to return address
values, it is nevertheless necessary that this class inherits from Value
as return addresses are stored on the stack/in the registers. However,
if the Value trait should be refined, all additional methods may – from
the point-of-view of OPAL-AI - just throw an OperationNotSupportedException
as these additional methods will never be called by OPAL-AI.

In general, subclasses and users of a Domain should not have/declare
a direct dependency on Value. Instead they should use DomainValue as otherwise
extensibility of a Domain may be hampered or even be impossible. The only
exceptions are, of course, classes that directly inherit from this class.
If you directly extend/refine this trait (i.e., in a subclass of the Domain trait
you write something like trait Value extends super.Value), make sure that
you also extend all classes/traits that inherit from this type
(this may require a deep mixin composition and that you refine the type
DomainType accordingly).
However, OPAL was designed such that extending this class should – in general
– not be necessary. It may also be easier to encode the desired semantics – as
far as possible – as part of the domain.
Standard inheritance from this trait is always supported and is the primary mechanism to model an abstract domain's lattice w.r.t. some special type of value. In general, the implementation should try to avoid creating new instances of values unless strictly required to model the domain's semantics. This will greatly improve the overall performance as this framework heavily uses reference-based equality checks to speed up the evaluation.
OPAL does not rely on any special equality semantics w.r.t. values and
never directly or indirectly calls a Value's equals or eq method. Hence,
a domain can encode equality such that it best fits its need.
However, some of the provided domains rely on the following semantics for equals:
Two domain values have to be equal (==) iff they represent the same
information. This includes additional information, such as, the value of
the origin.
E.g., a value (AnIntegerValue) that represents an arbitrary Integer value
has to return true if the domain value with which it is compared also
represents an arbitrary Integer value (AnIntegerValue). However,
it may still be necessary to use multiple objects to represent an arbitrary
integer value if, e.g., constraints should be attached to specific values.
For example, after a comparison of an integer value with a predefined
value (e.g., AnIntegerValue < 4) it is possible to constrain the respective
value on the subsequent paths (< 4 on one path and >= 4 on the other path).
To make that possible, it is however necessary to distinguish the
AnIntegervalue from some other AnIntegerValue to avoid constraining
unrelated values.
public void foo(int a,int b) {
if(a < 4) {
z = a - 2 // here a is constrained (< 4), b and z are unconstrained
}
else {
z = a + 2 // here a is constrained (>= 4), b and z are unconstrained
}
} In general, equals is only defined for values belonging to the same
domain. If values need to be compared across domains, they need to be adapted
to a target domain first.

DomainValue can be stored in a type-safe manner.
In the sub-trait or class that fixes the type of DomainValue it is necessary
to implement this abstract val using:
val DomainValueTag : ClassTag[DomainValue] = implicitly(As of Scala 2.10 it is necessary that you do not use implicit in the subclass -
it will compile, but fail at runtime.)

by the instruction with the specified program counter.
Factory method to create a DomainValue that represents an initialized
reference value of the given type and that was created (explicitly or implicitly)
by the instruction with the specified program counter.
The given type usually identifies a class type (not an interface type) that is
not abstract, but in some cases (e.g. consider java.awt.Toolkit())
it may be useful/meaningful to relax this requirement and to state that the
class precisely represents the runtime type – even
so the class is abstract. However, such decisions need to be made by the domain.
This method is used by the OPAL framework to create reference values that are normally
internally created by the JVM (in particular exceptions such as
NullPointExeception and ClassCastException). However, it can generally
be used to create initialized objects/arrays.

The result of merging two values should never be reported as a

The result of merging two values should never be reported as a
StructuralUpdate if the computed value is an IllegalValue. The JVM semantics guarantee
that the value will not be used and, hence, continuing the interpretation is meaningless.
This method is solely defined for documentation purposes and to catch implementation errors early on.
Merges the given domain value v1 with the domain value v2 and returns
the merged value which is v1 if v1 is an abstraction of v2, v2 if v2
is an abstraction of v1 or some other value if a new value is computed that
abstracts over both values.
Merges the given domain value v1 with the domain value v2 and returns
the merged value which is v1 if v1 is an abstraction of v2, v2 if v2

Returns a string representation of the properties associated with the instruction with the respective program counter.
Associating properties with an instruction and maintaining those properties
is, however, at the sole responsibility of the Domain.
This method is predefined to facilitate the development of support tools and is not used by the abstract interpretation framework.
Domains that define (additional) properties should (abstract) override
this method and should return a textual representation of the property.
Creates a summary of the given domain values by summarizing and
joining the given values.
Creates a summary of the given domain values by summarizing and
joining the given values. For the precise details
regarding the calculation of a summary see Value.summarize(...).

The current algorithm is generic and should satisfy most needs, but it is not very efficient. However, it should be easy to tailor it for a specific domain/domain values, if need be.
Returns the type(type bounds) of the given value.
Returns the type(type bounds) of the given value.
In general a single value can have multiple type bounds which depend on the
control flow.
However, all types that the value represents must belong to the same
computational type category. I.e., it is possible that the value either has the
type "NullPointerException or IllegalArgumentException", but it will never have
– at the same time – the (Java) types int and long. Furthermore,
it is possible that the returned type(s) is(are) only an upper bound of the
real type unless the type is a primitive type.
This default implementation always returns org.opalj.ai.UnknownType.
typeOfValueThis method is typically not implemented by a single Domain trait/object, but is
instead implemented collaboratively by all domains that implement the semantics
of certain values. To achieve that, other Domain traits that implement a
concrete domain's semantics have to abstract override this method and only
return the value's type if the domain knows anything about the type. If a method
that overrides this method has no knowledge about the given value, it should
delegate this call to its super method.

trait FloatValues extends Domain[...] { ... abstract override def typeOfValue(value: DomainValue): TypesAnswer = value match { case r: FloatValue ⇒ IsFloatValue case _ ⇒ super.typeOfValue(value) } }
