40 * need serialization due to the creation of named objects.
42 * NOTE: It is a bit of overkill to mark all such methods serialized, since
43 * there is only a problem if the method actually blocks during execution.
44 * A blocking operation is, for example, a Sleep() operation, or any access
45 * to an operation region. However, it is probably not possible to easily
46 * detect whether a method will block or not, so we simply mark all suspicious
47 * methods as serialized.
49 * NOTE2: This code is essentially a generic routine for parsing a single
50 * control method.
