process a named block.

Any other method of any other object can call this method. This is called 'public' access.

The data-type returned is "booltype"; Not sure.

This method is contained in the object "tgl_forlist_parser".

The method takes the following arguments:

block : stringtype

The name of the block.

This method is overridden from an abstract method with the same signature found in the object tgl_structure_parser.

Implementations

C++

The files "tgl_block.hpp" and "tgl_forlist.hpp" are included.

Process a block for the forlist parser.

	if (block == "item")
		return write_output(_item);
	else
	{
		// search the tree of blocks until we find a null parent
		// or we find a block with the name.
		tgl_block *b = _tglobj->get_block(block);
		if (!b)
		{
			tgl_obj *p = dynamic_cast<tgl_obj *>(_tglobj->parent());

					p = dynamic_cast<tgl_obj *>(p->parent());
