FullBlockClosure doesn’t have a startpc. Because it has its own method its startpc is implicit, just like a normal method. I’m on my phone now, so I don’t know what the creation method is off hand. But if you look at how Context implements the FullBlockClosure value primitives in doPrimitive:... you should find it. > > fbc value: 2 value: 3.
