48                 /*
49                 For simple assignments, this interface is very simple, EmitAssign is called with source
50                 as the source expression and leave_copy and prepare_for_load false.
51                 
52                 For compound assignments it gets complicated.
53                 
54                 EmitAssign will be called as before, however, prepare_for_load will be
55                 true. The @source expression will contain an expression
56                 which calls Emit. So, the calls look like:
57                 
58                 this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true) ->
59                         source.Emit (ec); ->
60                                 [...] ->
61                                         this.Emit (ec, false); ->
62                                         end this.Emit (ec, false); ->
63                                 end [...]
64                         end source.Emit (ec);
65                 end this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true)
66                 
67                 
68                 When prepare_for_load is true, EmitAssign emits a `token' on the stack that
69                 Emit will use for its state.
70                 
71                 Let's take FieldExpr as an example. assume we are emitting f ().y += 1;
72                 
73                 Here is the call tree again. This time, each call is annotated with the IL
74                 it produces:
75                 
76                 this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true)
77                         call f
78                         dup
79                         
80                         Binary.Emit ()
81                                 this.Emit (ec, false);
82                                 ldfld y
83                                 end this.Emit (ec, false);
84                                 
85                                 IntConstant.Emit ()
86                                 ldc.i4.1
87                                 end IntConstant.Emit
88                                 
89                                 add
90                         end Binary.Emit ()
91                         
92                         stfld
93                 end this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true)
94                 
95                 Observe two things:
96                         1) EmitAssign left a token on the stack. It was the result of f ().
97                         2) This token was used by Emit
98                 
99                 leave_copy (in both EmitAssign and Emit) tells the compiler to leave a copy
100                 of the expression at that point in evaluation. This is used for pre/post inc/dec
101                 and for a = x += y. Let's do the above example with leave_copy true in EmitAssign
102                 
103                 this.EmitAssign (ec, source, true, true)
104                         call f
105                         dup
106                         
107                         Binary.Emit ()
108                                 this.Emit (ec, false);
109                                 ldfld y
110                                 end this.Emit (ec, false);
111                                 
112                                 IntConstant.Emit ()
113                                 ldc.i4.1
114                                 end IntConstant.Emit
115                                 
116                                 add
117                         end Binary.Emit ()
118                         
119                         dup
120                         stloc temp
121                         stfld
122                         ldloc temp
123                 end this.EmitAssign (ec, source, true, true)
124                 
125                 And with it true in Emit
126                 
127                 this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true)
128                         call f
129                         dup
130                         
131                         Binary.Emit ()
132                                 this.Emit (ec, true);
133                                 ldfld y
134                                 dup
135                                 stloc temp
136                                 end this.Emit (ec, true);
137                                 
138                                 IntConstant.Emit ()
139                                 ldc.i4.1
140                                 end IntConstant.Emit
141                                 
142                                 add
143                         end Binary.Emit ()
144                         
145                         stfld
146                         ldloc temp
147                 end this.EmitAssign (ec, source, false, true)
148                 
149                 Note that these two examples are what happens for ++x and x++, respectively.
