/* ReferenceVariable provides interface for simulating assignments
* in a native method.
*
* e.g., a = b, can be written by a.isAssigned(b);
*
* A reference variable is an abstract of a variable rather than a
* representation of an abstract object, the later is represented by
* AbstractObject.
*
* The simulation formulates the assignment or field assignment of such
* high level variable. It is the resposibility of analyses to get the
* constraints out of such abstract simulation.
*
* Analyses may use very different representations of points-to, e.g.,
* set constraints, type rules, or points-to graphs. All the analyses
* have to do is to let the variables in the program implement this
* interface.
