#include <BasicBlock.h>
This represents a single basic block in LLVM. A basic block is simply a container of instructions that execute sequentially. Basic blocks are Values because they are referenced by instructions such as branches and switch tables. The type of a BasicBlock is "Type::LabelTy" because the basic block represents a label to which a branch can jump.
A well formed basic block is formed of a list of non-terminating instructions followed by a single TerminatorInst instruction. TerminatorInst's may not occur in the middle of basic blocks, and must terminate the blocks. The BasicBlock class allows malformed basic blocks to occur because it may be useful in the intermediate stage of constructing or modifying a program. However, the verifier will ensure that basic blocks are "well formed".

| void BasicBlock::dropAllReferences | ( | ) |
dropAllReferences() - This function causes all the subinstructions to "let go" of all references that they are maintaining. This allows one to 'delete' a whole class at a time, even though there may be circular references... first all references are dropped, and all use counts go to zero. Then everything is delete'd for real. Note that no operations are valid on an object that has "dropped all references", except operator delete.

removePredecessor - This method is used to notify a BasicBlock that the specified Predecessor of the block is no longer able to reach it. This is actually not used to update the Predecessor list, but is actually used to update the PHI nodes that reside in the block. Note that this should be called while the predecessor still refers to this block.

splitBasicBlock - This splits a basic block into two at the specified instruction. Note that all instructions BEFORE the specified iterator stay as part of the original basic block, an unconditional branch is added to the original BB, and the rest of the instructions in the BB are moved to the new BB, including the old terminator. The newly formed BasicBlock is returned. This function invalidates the specified iterator.
Note that this only works on well formed basic blocks (must have a terminator), and 'I' must not be the end of instruction list (which would cause a degenerate basic block to be formed, having a terminator inside of the basic block).
