I had a poke at it, dealt with a couple of compile issues, then encountered Blocks and went WTF did Apple invent here? I don't even understand the description of their proprietary extension to C/C++/ObjC. I had never seen code with ^ prefixed to things in this way and since I don't understand what Blocks are supposed to accomplish I have no idea how to remove them from the code.
hateful language extensions, I too miss to find the complex, while the concept should be simple. A matter of habits perhaps. Anyway, often, they are just used where in classic code "callback functions" were used. Maybe that's your case too.
