[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Correctly clear observer reference on the observed object when it is freed.
* BUG: Clear environment variables set by the interpreter, as they can be read by the shared libraries exit routines after main() has been terminated.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Assert is an new instruction that raises an error as soon as its boolean argument is FALSE. The associated bytecode is not emitted if the '-x' option is specified.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Assert is an new instruction that raises an error as soon as its boolean argument is FALSE.
[GB.DEBUG]
* BUG: Fix a potential array overflow.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Allow loop variables to be declared inside the loop syntax.
* NEW: Consequently, FOR EACH now can only use local variables.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: A little optimization of integer loops. They are about 5% faster now.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Forgot to call JIT function when the call is dynamic, i.e. if the object owning the method has an anonymous datatype (Object or Variant).
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Save the initial stack pointer of a function in the function stack instead of using the interpreter stack.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Fix the LANGUAGE environment variable at startup, not just when System.Language is set. This is a temporary fix, as you lost the contents of LANGUAGE.
* NEW: Add hebrew to the list of right-to-left written languages.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[ARCHIVER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[INFORMER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Overriding public variables was useless, and is now forbidden to help JIT compiler optimizations.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Correctly compile dynamic accesses to public constants.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: String value can be used like object.
* NEW: String[X] returns the X-th character of the string, 0 being the first one.
* NEW: String[X, N] returns N characters from the position X, 0 being the first one. IF N is strictly negative, then all characters from the position X, except the last N characters are returned.
* NEW: String.Len returns the length of the string.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Allow the [] operator to be applied to a string.
* NEW: Update highlighting themes by defining the new color constants.
* NEW: Update French translation.
* BUG: Option dialog: The highlighting color panel now takes the editor font size into account.
[GB.EVAL]
* BUG: Fix string highlighting.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Rename a macro constant to avoid a symbol clash when compiling the interpreter.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Get rid of a macro trick in 'gbx_eval.h' header.
[GB.EVAL]
* NEW: Highlight: Add three new color constants for syntax highlighting: Escape, Label and Constant.
* NEW: Rename some source files.
* NEW: Rename some constants.
* NEW: Gambas syntax highlighter now use the three new contants for escape characters in strings, for labels, and for language contants (True, False, Null, +Inf and -Inf).
[GB.EVAL.HIGHLIGHT]
* NEW: Support for the new syntax highlighting color constants.
[GB.FORM.EDITOR]
* NEW: Support for the new syntax highlighting color constants.
pty.h is not needed because its functions are not used.
Use ioctl.h additionally to the already included termios.h to import the
implicitly used functions/constants.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: If an unknown symbol is called through a parent class reference, the _unknown() method is not called and an error is raised if the unknown symbol exists in the actual child class.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Creating a NULL value now clears the object address field so that it can be freely interpreted as a Object value with a null address by the JIT compiled code.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Correctly restore stack after calling a method through the interpreter.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: When creating a new class, set its component immediately if we know the archive it comes from.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Correctly load classes from archives other than the main project one.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Add a JIT API for loading classes without running the _init method.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Load classes without running the _init method, so that the JIT behaviour is closer to the interpreter behaviour.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: JIT: Add an API for throwing type mismatch errors.
* BUG: Raise a type mismatch error when converting a function to a variant. Don't panic anymore.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Handle function datatype by raising a type mismatch error.
* NEW: Fix panic error message.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Load project classes before try to resolve a unknown symbol.
* BUG: Correctly restore the stack pointer in all cases at function exit.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Do not clear the 'super' field of the object value returned by NEW, as it does not fix actually anything.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Correctly reset the stack pointer when releasing the stack in error handlers.
