[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Fix backward-compatibility with previous bytecode.
* OPT: Optimizations of local variables and argument assignements.
* BUG: NULL can be serialized on streams correctly now.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Serialization now does not duplicate objects anymore. Once an object
is serialized, if it is encounter again, then it is seralized as a five
bytes reference.
* BUG: Fix Task.Wait() that incorrectly used 'sleep' instead of 'usleep'.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: If some data have been peeked on a stream, then the next reads will
only return the peeked data until they all have been exhausted, and the
Lof() function will return the number of peeked bytes yet to read.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: New "Unknown stream size" error when 'Lof()' cannot know the size of a stream.
* BUG: If we can't know the size of a stream watched for reading, then we don't unwatch it automatically anymore.
* BUG: Streams based on non-regular file descriptors (devices for example) opened in direct mode now never use 'fstat()' for getting the file length.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Read watches are automatically disabled when stream is closed in all cases.
* BUG: Buffered stream end-of-file function has been fixed.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Standard input is not supposed to be always available for reading.
* NEW: Watching a stream for reading is stopped as soon as reading ahead returns end of file.
* NEW: Eof() now immediately returns TRUE if a previous read ahead has reached end of file.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Support for the new PEEK instruction.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: PEEK is a new instruction that peek some bytes from a stream without removing them, so that they are available to the next READ instruction.
* OPT: IsAscii(), IsLower(), IsPunct()... instructions are now a bit faster.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: '_read' and '_write' are two new special methods that allow to make any object serializable by the READ and WRITE instructions.
* NEW: Rename macro that convert a Gambas stream object to the internal stream structure and add a macro that does the reverse conversion.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: OPEN NULL is a new syntax that opens a null stream. Reading always returns end of file, and writing does nothing except advancing the file pointer, allowing to know how many bytes were written.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: OPEN NULL is a new syntax that opens a null stream.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Stream.NullTerminatedString is a new property that tells if writing a string on the stream emits the string length first, or a null terminated zero byte. This property is TRUE by default on memory streams.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: JIT: Support for event raising.
* BUG: Fix some bugs detected by clang.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for event raising.
* OPT: Some optimizations in jit code generation and compilation.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Writing to a stream does not crash anymore if the stream is closed while the data is sent in several shots. Socket stream implementation should not close the stream while writing. I will try to fix that later.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* OPT: Don't load the help browser form immediately to speed up IDE starting.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Use a dedicated stream for locks, so that the File object returned by LOCK cannot be used for reading or writing the locked file.
[GB.GTK]
* NEW: Ignore Application.Busy when displaying a message box.
[GB.GTK3]
* NEW: Ignore Application.Busy when displaying a message box.
[GB.QT4]
* NEW: Ignore Application.Busy when displaying a message box.
[GB.QT5]
* NEW: Ignore Application.Busy when displaying a message box.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Correctly attach newly created objects.
* BUG: Lof() should work correctly now on streams having a specific implementation of Lof() function.
* BUG: Fix a possible bad serialization of arrays.
* BUG: Don't crash during the unserialisation of an array whose datatype has been incorrectly serialized. Raise an error instead.
