Hi Lubos,
Take a look in -base. I wrote some support stuff that makes this easy.
There's a macro for declaring block types and another for invoking them. These
work with clang and gcc (you can only create blocks with clang, but you can
call them via the macros). It's recommended to build -base with clang if you
want to use blocks, or you'll end up with the runtime detecting type mismatches
on selectors, but it will still work if you compile it with gcc.
