/*
 * FRAME is the type of the identifier of a specific stack frame.  It
 * is a pointer to the frame cache item corresponding to this frame.
 * Please note that frame id's are *not* constant over calls to the
 * inferior.  Use frame addresses, which are.
 *
 * FRAME_ADDR is the type of the address of a specific frame.  I
 * cannot imagine a case in which this would not be CORE_ADDR, so
 * maybe it's silly to give it it's own type.  Life's rough.
 *
 * FRAME_FP is a macro which converts from a frame identifier into a
 * frame_address.
 *
 * FRAME_INFO_ID is a macro which "converts" from a frame info pointer
 * to a frame id.  This is here in case I or someone else decides to
 * change the FRAME type again.
 *
 * This file and blockframe.c are the only places which are allowed to
 * use the equivalence between FRAME and struct frame_info *.  EXCEPTION:
 * value.h uses CORE_ADDR instead of FRAME_ADDR because the compiler
 * will accept that in the absense of this file.
