CSC448: Code Generation Revisited: Implementation Strategies II [129/133]

An alternative is to maintain a table for each function/method that contains the instruction pointer ranges for each exception handler block.

When an exception is encountered, the runtime system searches the table using the current instruction pointer as the key. It will find the address of a handler block to use.

If an handler block does not handle an exception, then the runtime system begins again with the address of the failed handler.
