Hello

I would like to know how the VM defines on:do:

on: exception do: handlerAction
	"Evaluate the receiver in the scope of an exception handler."

	| handlerActive |
	<primitive: 199>  "just a marker, fail and execute the following"
	handlerActive _ true.
	^ self value


I'm on a rather non existent internet connexion and I do not have the
vm code and I would like to know where how the exception and  
handlerAction block
are stored.

I was imagining that may be the vm stores them in the previous context.

Stef
