22/// @class ExecutionContextScope ExecutionContextScope.h
23/// "lldb/Symbol/ExecutionContextScope.h" Inherit from this if your object can
24/// reconstruct its
25///        execution context.
26///
27/// Many objects that have pointers back to parent execution context objects
28/// can inherit from this pure virtual class can reconstruct their execution
29/// context without having to keep a complete ExecutionContext object in the
30/// object state. Examples of these objects include: Process, Thread,
31/// RegisterContext and StackFrame.
32///
33/// Objects can contain a valid pointer to an instance of this so they can
34/// reconstruct the execution context.
35///
36/// Objects that adhere to this protocol can reconstruct enough of a execution
37/// context to allow functions that take a execution contexts to be called.
