b426ab51 MW |
118 | Specifically, this is the entry point to the effective METHOD invoked via |
119 | the vtable for the chain headed by CHAIN-HEAD, and serving the given ROLE. | |
120 | The CHAIN-TAIL is the most specific class on this chain; this is useful | |
121 | because we can reuse the types of method entries from superclasses on | |
122 | non-primary chains. | |
dea4d055 MW |
123 | |
124 | Each effective method may have several different method entries, because | |
125 | an effective method can be called via vtables attached to different | |
126 | chains, and such calls will pass instance pointers which point to | |
127 | different `ichain' structures within the overall instance layout; it's the | |
128 | job of the method entry to adjust the instance pointers correctly for the | |
129 | rest of the effective method. | |
130 | ||
b426ab51 MW |
131 | A vtable can contain more than one entry for the same message. Such |
132 | entries are distinguished by their roles. A message always has an entry | |
bf8aadd7 MW |
133 | with the `nil role; in addition, a varargs message also has a `:valist' |
134 | role, which accepts a `va_list' argument in place of the variable argument | |
135 | listNo other roles are currently defined, though they may be introduced by | |
136 | extensions. | |
b426ab51 | 137 | |
dea4d055 MW |
138 | The boundaries between a method entry and the effective method |
139 | is (intentionally) somewhat fuzzy. In extreme cases, the effective method | |
140 | may not exist at all as a distinct entity in the output because its | |
141 | content is duplicated in all of the method entry functions. This is left | |

514 | no more methods in the chain then the `next_method' pointer will be null; | |
515 | otherwise it will point to a `trampoline' function, whose behaviour is to | |
516 | call the remaining methods on the chain as a delegation chain. The method | |
517 | may choose to call this function with its arguments. It will finally | |
518 | return a value, which will be delivered to the TARGET. | |
