<br>
The front end translates the code found between FINALLY and END into a nested procedure.<br>
This is declared as having one parameter of type ADDRESS. But, in the the direct call<br>
it generates, right before the FINALLY, it passes no actual. Also, in the simple example<br>
I looked at, the finally procedure does not access its formal.<br>
<br>
It also stores the address of the finally procedure in a 5-word record whose address<br>
it passes to RTHooks.PushEFrame and PopEFrame. RTHooks.i3 treats this as ADDRESS, and<br>
tells us nothing about what it actually points to.<br>
<br>
Is there a bug, or does anybody understand what is going on here?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
