From The Oxygene Language Wiki

This is a Language topic
Feel free to add your notes to this topic below.

ValueKind is used in the Value Class and it's subclasses as a fast way to see what kind of value an instance is, without having to use "is" checks on all types.

Value	Description
AnonymousMethod	An anonymous method (or lambda).
AnonymousParameter	Anonymous parameter value (a reference to an anonymous parameter defined on an anonymous method).
Array	The value is an inline array expression. Like ['124', 1, nil].
ArrayCtorCall	The value is a call to an array constructor, like new byte[16].
BeginLocalVar	The value is a reference to a local defined in a BeginStatement Class.
Between	The value is a between value, like 1 < a < 3.
BinValueOp	The value is a binary expression, like 1 + 1.
Case	The value is a case expression.
Coalesce	The value is a coalesce expression.
ConstructorOf	The value is a ConstructorOf reference to a constructor.
Data	The value is a data value.
Default	The value is a Default(type) expression.
ExceptLocalVar	The value points to a local defined in an Except block.
FieldOf	The value is a System.Reflection.FieldInfo to a field.
FieldVar	The value is a reference to an instance field.
ForInLocalVar	The value is a reference to a local defined as part of a for (each) in expression.
ForLocalVar	The value is a reference to a local defined as part of a for expression.
IIf	The value is an IIF expression: iif(a = 15, b, a).
Length	The value is a Length expression: Length(x).
LocalVar	The value is a reference to a local defined in the var section of the method.
LockingLocalVar	The value is a reference to a local defined in a locked statement.
MethodOf	The value is a reference to a MethodInfo.
NamedLocalValue	The value is a named local.
New	The value is a call to a constructor.
Nil	The value is nil.
NotNil	The value uses the not null operator on the left side. Pass this as a "Self" for instance fields and method calls.
ParamVar	The value is a reference to a parameter.
Proc	The value is a method call.
ProcPtr	The value is a reference to a method.
Range	The value is a range value like a .. b.
Result	The value points to the result of the current method.
Self	The value points to the "self" of the current method.
SizeOf	The value contains the size of a type.
Statement	The value contains both a statement and a value to push. The statement cannot be something that creates a protected block (locking, using, try). The statement is executed before the value is pushed.
StaticVar	The value points to a static variable.
SubArray	The value accesses an element of an array expression: a[b].
Type	The value is a type, used for calls on static methods.
TypeOf	The value is a TypeOf value.
Undefined	A value not supported by Cirrus.
UnValueOp	The value is an unary operator like casting, not, negating.
UsingLocalVar	The value points to a local defined in a using block.
WithLocalVar	The value points to a local defined in a with block.
