1.9 anton 27: \ Ok, here's the story about how we get to the native code for the
28: \ recovery code in case of a THROW, and why there is all this funny
29: \ stuff being compiled by TRY and RECOVER:
30:
31: \ Upon a THROW, we cannot just return through the ordinary return
32: \ address, but have to use a different one, for code after the
33: \ RECOVER. How do we do that, in a way portable between the various
34: \ threaded and native code engines? In particular, how does the
35: \ native code engine learn about the address of the native recovery
36: \ code?
37:
38: \ On the Forth level, we can compile only references to threaded code.
39: \ The only thing that translates a threaded code address to a native
40: \ code address is docol, which is only called with EXECUTE and
41: \ friends. So we start the recovery code with a docol, and invoke it
42: \ with PERFORM; the recovery code then rdrops the superfluously
43: \ generated return address and continues with the proper recovery
44: \ code.
45:
46: \ At compile time, since we cannot compile a forward reference (to the
47: \ recovery code) as a literal (backpatching does not work for
48: \ native-code literals), we produce a data cell (wrapped in AHEAD
49: \ ... THEN) that we can backpatch, and compile the address of that as
50: \ literal.
51:
52: \ Overall, this leads to the following resulting code:
53:
54: \ ahead
55: \ +><recovery address>-+
56: \ | then |
57: \ +-lit |
58: \ (try) |
59: \ ... |
