It is part of the actionscript virtual machine 2, which Gnash no longer attempts to support. There currently no plans to support it (though in theory we'd like to). The bug in question won't arise because no ABC code is ever executed now.

Can you explain that? I would like to understand what does it mean and why do you decide that it is not something to be fixed at all.

(17:00:41) JucaBlues: There is an error thrown when reading exception types in method bodies. It says "ERROR: ABC: Unknown type of object to catch. (generateGraphicsCommands)" But generateGraphicsCommands is a method name. 

(17:01:09) JucaBlues: I have been debugging gnash by running SVGWeb, which is free software, so I can check the action script source code.

(17:06:57) bwy: It seems there are still some problems with the string constant pool.

(17:08:42) bwy: AVM2 has no exception handling at all though, and I haven't looked at the exception parsing code much.

(17:09:11) bwy: If you can submit a bug report with the SWF attached it would be helpful to track it.
