"

Blocks are pieces of executable code which can be evaluated by sending

them a value-message (''value'', ''value:'', ''value:value:'' etc).

Blocks with arguments need a message of type ''value:arg1 ... value:argn''

for evaluation; the number of arguments passed when evaluating must match

the number of arguments the block was declared with otherwise an error is

raised. Blocks without args need a ''value'' message for evaluation.

Blocks keep a reference to the method context where the block was declared -

this allows blocks to access the methods arguments and/or variables.

This is also true when the method has already returned - since the

block keeps this reference, the methods context will NOT die in this case.

A return (via ^-statement) out of a block will force a return from the

blocks method context (if it is still living) - this make the implementation

of long-jumps and control structures possible.

(If the method is not alive (i.e. has already returned), a return out of the block 

is ignored and a simple return from the block is performed).

Long-jump is done by defining a catchBlock as ''[^ self]''

somewhere up in the calling-tree. Then, to do the long-jump from out of some 

deeply nested method, simply do: ''catchBlock value''.

Instance variables:

code        <not_an_object>   the function pointer if its a compiled block

flags       <SmallInteger>    special flag bits coded in a number

byteCode    <ByteArray>       bytecode of home method if its an interpreted block

home        <Context>         the context where this block lives

nargs       <SmallInteger>    the number of arguments the block expects

sourcePos   <SmallInteger>    the character poistion of its source, in chars

                              relative to methods source beginning

initialPC   <SmallInteger>    the start position within the byteCode

literals    <Array>           the blocks literal array

selfValue   <Object>          value to use for self if its a copying block
