Operations on internal representations of values.
Not for the casual user.

val is_block : t -> bool
val is_int : t -> bool
val tag : t -> int
val size : t -> int
val reachable_words : t -> int
Computes the total size (in words, including the headers) of all heap blocks accessible from the argument. Statically allocated blocks are included.
val field : t -> int -> t
val set_field : t -> int -> t -> unit
When using flambda:
set_field
MUST NOT be called on immutable blocks. (Blocks allocated
in C stubs, or with new_block
below, are always considered mutable.)
The same goes for set_double_field
.
For experts only:
set_field
et al can be made safe by first wrapping the block in
Sys.opaque_identity
, so any information about its contents will not
be propagated.
