26     *
27 schoenebeck 2727 * This is the core of the virtual machine and main entry class, used for
28     * running real-time instrument scripts. This VM core encompasses the
29     * instrument script parser, generalized virtual machine and very generic
30     * built-in script functions. Thus this class only provides functionalities
31     * which are yet independent of the actual purpose the virtual machine is
32     * going to be used for.
33 schoenebeck 2594 *
34     * The actual use case specific functionalites (i.e. MIDI processing) is
35 schoenebeck 2727 * then implemented by sampler engines' VM classes which are derived from
36     * this generalized ScriptVM class.
37 schoenebeck 2594 *
38 schoenebeck 2727 * Typical usage of this class:
39     *
40     * - 1. Create an instance of this ScriptVM class (or of one of its deriving
41     * classes).
42     * - 2. Load a script by passing its source code to method loadScript(),
43     * which will return the parsed represenation of the script.
44     * - 3. Create a VM execution context by calling createExecContext().
45     * - 4. Execute the script by calling method exec().
46     *
47 schoenebeck 2594 * This class is re-entrant safe, but not thread safe. So you can share one
48     * instance of this class between multiple (native) threads, but you @b must
49     * @b not execute methods of the same class instance simultaniously from
50     * different (native) threads. If you want to execute scripts simultaniously
51     * multi threaded, then create a separate ScriptVM instance for each
52     * (native) thread. Also note that one VMParserContext instance is tied to
53     * exactly one ScriptVM instance. So you @b must @b not create a
54     * VMParserContext with one ScriptVM instance and run it with a different
55     * ScriptVM instance!
