documentation

    this class defines protocol for executable methods;

    both compiled and interpreted methods are represented by this class.

    Compiled methods have a non-nil code field, while interpreted methods have

    a nil code field and non-nil byteCode field.

    If there are both non-nil code and bytecode fields, the VM will execute

    the machine-code of a method. If both are nil when executed, a noByteCode

    message is sent by the VM to the method where a signal is raised.

    The methods sourcecode is represented by source and sourcePosition:

    - if sourcePosition is a Number, the source-field is the fileName and

      sourcePosition is the character offset of the source-chunk in this source file.

    - If sourcePosition is nil, the source is the string in the source field.

    (an old version used ExternalString instances here, but that lead to

     10000 additional little objects ...)

    The flags field defines things like the number of method-locals,

    method arguments and stack requirements (for interpreted methods).

    Do not depend on any value in the flags field - it may change without

    notice.

    Notice, that in ST/X, method can be subclassed; executable code is

    identified not by being an instance of Block or Method, but instead by

    having the executable flag bit set in the class. The VM can execute anything

    which is identified as executable (assuming that the first instance variable

    is the machine-code address) - this allows for easy future extension.

    [Instance variables:]

	source          <String>        the source itself (if sourcePosition isNil)

					or the fileName where the source is found

	sourcePosition  <Integer>       the position of the methods chunk in the file

	category        <Symbol>        the methods category

	package         <Symbol>        the package, in which the methods was defined

	mclass          <Class>         the class in which I am defined

	indexed slots                   literals

    [Class variables:]

	PrivateMethodSignal             raised on privacy violation (see docu)

	LastFileReference               weak reference to the last sourceFile

	LastSourceFileName              to speedup source access via NFS

    WARNING: layout known by compiler and runtime system - dont change

dynamicMethods

"

    On systems which support dynamic loading of stc-compiled machine code (SYS5.4, Linux),

    methods may now be compiled to machine code from within the browser,

    and the resulting machine code object be loaded in.

    The ObjectFileLoader keeps (weak) handles to the resulting methods and

    invalidates the corresponding method objects, if the underlying methods

    object code is unloaded.

    Invalid methods will trap into the debugger when executed;

    also, the browser marks them as '(* not executable *)' in its method list.

    Notice: this has nothing to do with JIT compilation, which is always possible.

    JIT-compilation is done from bytecodes to a machineCode cache.

    In contrast, dynamic loading of stc-compiled code goes via intermediate C-code

    which is compiled by the machines native C-compiler.

    As opposed to JITted code, this allows for embedded primitive C-code.

privacy 

"

    ST/X includes an EXPERIMENTAL implementation of method privacy.

    Individual methods may be set to private or protected via the

    privacy:#private and privacy:#protected messages. Also, categories may be

    filedIn as a whole as private using #privateMethodsFor: or as

    protected using #protectedMethodsFor: instead of the well known #methodsFor:.

    The additional #publicMethodsFor: is for documentation purposes, and

    is equivalent to #methodsFor: (also to support fileIn of ENVY methods).

    Private methods may be executed only when called via a self-send

    from the superclass-methods and self or super-sends from methods in the

    class itself or subclasses.

    Protected methods may not be called from subclasses-methods, 

    i.e. they may only be called via self sends from within the current class.

    (i.e. private methods are less private than protected ones)

    When such a situation arises, the VM (runtime system) will raise the

    PrivateMethodSignal exception (if nonNil), which usually brings you into the

    debugger.

    If PrivateMethodSignal is nil, the VM will not check for this, and

    execution is as usual. (you may want to nil-it for production code,

    and leave it non nil during development).

    NOTICE: there is no (not yet ?) standard defined for method privacy,

    however, the definition protocol was designed to be somewhat ENVY compatible 

    (from what can be deduced by reading PD code).

    Also, the usability of privacy is still to be tested.

    This interface, the implementation and the rules for when a privacy violation

    may change (in case of some ANSI standard being defined).

    Be warned and send me suggestions & critics (constructive ;-)

    Late note (Feb 2000):

	the privacy feature has new been in ST/X for some years and was NOT heavily

	used - neither at eXept, nor by customers.

	In Smalltalk, it seems to be a very questionable feature, actually limiting

	code reusability.

	The privacy features are left in the system to demonstrate that it can be

	done in Smalltalk (for religious C++ fans ... to avoid useless discussions)

	(the check is not expensive, w.r.t. the VM runtime behavior).
