The Inbox: Kernel-nice.1407.mcz

commits-2
Nicolas Cellier uploaded a new version of Kernel to project The Inbox:
http://source.squeak.org/inbox/Kernel-nice.1407.mcz

==================== Summary ====================

Name: Kernel-nice.1407
Author: nice
Time: 13 May 2021, 3:34:15.142602 pm
UUID: c4b8ae2c-02a9-415b-bcf3-6628b8f9f8e7
Ancestors: Kernel-jar.1406

When simulating (for example via the debugger) correctly unwind the simulation machinery #ensure: block inserted by #runUntilErrorOrReturnFrom:

Simulating #aboutToReturn:through: did jump to first unwind context. But this first unwind context was determined BEFORE the simulation #ensure: has been inserted. This had the effect of skipping the simulation machinery protection, and did result in a BlockCannotReturn (cannotReturn:) error...

This did prevent the debugger to correctly debug a protected block with non local return like this:
 
        [^2] ensure: [Transcript cr; show: 'done'].

Kudos to Jaromir for finding this!

=============== Diff against Kernel-jar.1406 ===============

Item was changed:
  ----- Method: Context>>return:from: (in category 'instruction decoding') -----
  return: value from: aSender
  "For simulation.  Roll back self to aSender and return value from it.  Execute any unwind blocks on the way.  ASSUMES aSender is a sender of self"
 
  | newTop |
  aSender isDead ifTrue:
  [^self send: #cannotReturn: to: self with: {value}].
  newTop := aSender sender.
  (self findNextUnwindContextUpTo: newTop) ifNotNil:
  [:unwindProtectCtxt|
+ ^self send: #simulatedAboutToReturn:through: to: self with: {value. unwindProtectCtxt}].
- ^self send: #aboutToReturn:through: to: self with: {value. unwindProtectCtxt}].
  self releaseTo: newTop.
  newTop ifNotNil: [newTop push: value].
  ^newTop!
