* NEW: New GB.NewZeroString() API to create a Gambas string from a
null-terminated string. Components were modified to use it.
* OPT: Many optimizations everywhere.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Many optimizations. The compiler should be noticeably faster.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2953 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Do not compile database manager anymore, it has been deprecated.
* BUG: Compile the gb.dbus component.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Pointer is a real datatype now.
* NEW: Static arrays came back. They are now like real array classes,
except that they are not resizable.
* NEW: IsPointer() is a new function that tells if an expression is a
pointer.
* NEW: All XXXX?() function synonymous were removed. Use the IsXXXX()
version instead.
* NEW: Remove now useless source files.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Static arrays came back, with actually the same syntax as before.
[EXAMPLES]
* BUG: Fix the examples according to the new array syntax.

removed from a collection being freed.

* NEW: Updated libtool macros.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* NEW: Highlight the current procedure in the editor procedure popup.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Alignment fixes for the ARM architecture.
[GB.DRAW]
* NEW: Start implementing the new Paint interface.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: GridView.Clear is now correctly implemented.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2505 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: The IDE now uses the WebKit component to display an online help
directly into the automatic completion popup. The online help management
is quick and dirty at the moment.
* NEW: The option dialog is being redesigned. Not finished yet...
* NEW: Some cosmetic changes in the user control that displays the
information about a project. Not perfect yet.
[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: The wiki now sends the "Last-Modified", "Expires" and
"Cache-Control: max-age" headers with the HTML pages.
* NEW: Adding "?help" to an URL returns the page for the IDE online help.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Try to stop breaking strict aliasing rules. This way the interpreter
should behave better on ARM architecture.
* BUG: Remove a possible crash when calling a constructor.
[GB.DRAW]
* NEW: The deprecated properties Draw.ForeColor and Draw.BackColor have
been removed.
[GB.NET]
* BUG: Do not watch the SerialPort file descriptor for reading if there is
no Read event handler.
[GB.QT4.WEBKIT]
* NEW: WebSettings.Cache.Path is a new property to define the directory
used for storing the disk cache contents. If this property is not
defined, no cache will be used.
* NEW: WebView.Cached is a new property to tell if the web browser will use
the disk cache. The WebSettings.Cache.Path *must* be defined before
setting that property.
* NEW: WebView.HTML is not read-only anymore.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2460 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: VarPtr() now works on a string variable. It returns the address of
the string.
* NEW: TypeOf("") now returns gb.String. "" is equal to NULL yet, but now its
string datatype is kept.
* NEW: Memory is new instruction like Open that opens a memory stream from
a Pointer.
* NEW: A Pointer can not be used as a stream directly. You must use the new
Memory instruction for that.
* NEW: The [...] array constructor now checks the datatype of all its
argument to decide the type of the new array.
* BUG: The ["key":value] collection constructor now does not leak memory
anymore if it fails.
* NEW: A new error, "void key", whose code is 64.
* NEW: TypeOf(Null) now returns gb.Null and not gb.Object anymore.
* BUG: IIf() now returns a Variant only if needed. It uses the same
algorithm as the array constructor.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Memory is new instruction like Open that opens a memory stream from
a Pointer. The syntax is: hStream = Memory pPonter For Read | Write.
* NEW: Support for form controls being individually public.
* BUG: VarPtr() is compiled correctly again.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2339 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Freeing a collection does not crash anymore if a collection item is
removed during the process.
* BUG: Static variables are correctly inherited now.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2023 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Replace "Image provider" feature by "Image loading and saving"
feature in the project property dialog.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Collection[""] does not raise a "void key" error anymore. It just
returns NULL.
* BUG: The Collection array accessor error management is not disturbed by
the debugger anymore. This fix a possible interpreter crash.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1832 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Some bugs fixes coming from Gentoo.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* BUG: Some fixes in the case of signature symbols.
[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* BUG: Try to display the language bar in Firefox the same way as in
Konqueror.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Collection[] now correctly raises an error when the key is null.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: Fix the use of the gambas part in the TreeView class.
[GB.NET.CURL]
* BUG: Successive calls to the Get() or Put() methods should not make the
interpreter crash at exit anymore.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1554 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Fixed an optimization in variants that was not 64-bits aware.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1230 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Some little layout fixes.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Read the user home directory only if the current uid has changed.
Otherwise, cache it into memory.
* OPT: String memory management has been optimized.
* OPT: Some little optimizations there and there.
* NEW: A new interpreter option, "-k", that prevents shared library to be
unloaded until the process terminates. That can be useful when
debugging with valgrind.
* OPT: System.Language property was optimized.
* OPT: The gb_error.c file is now compiled with -O3.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: Disable the management of input methods in TextBox and TextArea
controls, so that the input methods are not disturbed. Consequently;
SCIM and Bridged SCIM work again.
* BUG: You can read keyboard events properties in a Form KeyPress or
KeyRelease event handler correctly now.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1199 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* OPT: Optimizations in string comparison operators.
* OPT: Optimizations in string allocations.
* OPT: Optimizations in Left$(), Mid$(), Right$() and Len().
* OPT: Optimizations of calls to native methods when the number of
arguments is fixed, and when no argument conversion is needed.
* OPT: Optimizations of INPUT and LINE INPUT, by using an internal buffer
instead of reading the stream one byte at a time.
* BUG: Fixed the new error management.
* BUG: Fixed a possible spurious error when reading a file from an archive.
[GB.EVAL]
* BUG: Use the same new error management than the interpreter.
[GB.QT]
* BUG: The DrawingArea control now should draw its border correctly without
erasing its contents.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1041 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* OPT: Native array optimizations are better. For arrays with one
dimension, reading is about 70% faster than gambas2, and writing 40%
faster.
* OPT: Collection array accessors were optimized too. Reading is about 50%
faster and writing 60% faster. Be careful: only the array accessors were
optimized, not the full hash table access, which is the slower part of
the process.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1036 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: 64 bits port.
[EXAMPLES]
* BUG: Fixed the AnalogWatch example.
[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: Some little cosmetic changes.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: The extern function implementation has been redesigned and is now
based on libffi, so that it works on 64 bits system. Because of a flaw in
the compiler design, projects that use the Pointer datatype must be
recompiled to be used on a 64 bits system. This flaw will be fixed in
Gambas 3.
* OPT: Put some tables into read-only memory. About 1000 bytes are saved
for each running interpreter, except the first one.
* BUG: Does not crash anymore if a component cannot be loaded.
* NEW: Spanish translation updated.
* NEW: A new interpreter API for returning a pointer.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Correctly compiles LONG constants inside code.
[GB.DEBUG]
* BUG: Compiles and links the gb.debug components with the thread
libraries.
[GB.DB.SQLITE3]
* BUG: Getting the primary index of a table without primary index is safe
now.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: Modified the GLib priority of watched descriptors, as the main loop
could enter in a loop in which user interface events were not managed.
* BUG: Message boxes use application title without crashing now.
[GB.OPENGL]
* BUG: Disable dead code.
[GB.QT.EXT]
* BUG: TextEdit.TextWidth and TextEdit.TextHeight were not declared as
read-only properties.
[GB.XML.XSLT]
* BUG: XSLT class is now declared as being not creatable.
