[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: '_lang' is a new static public special method that is called when
'System.Language' changes. It allows you to reload the translations of
the class.
[INTERPRETER]

* BUG: Fix maximum number of array declaration in the same class.
* NEW: Array and Collection constructor operator [ ... ] now can take any

* NEW: Temporary hack in the GB.New() API so that we can pass a number of
arguments in some cases.
[GB.COMPLEX]
* OPT: Do not create complex objects during arithmetic operations when we
are sure that we can reuse a temporary one. That trick can be used in any
'_operators' interface.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@4925 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec

* BUG: Fix a crash is structure declaration analyze.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Support for static array of structures. A static array of structure
'MyStruct' will create a temporary object whose class is '$MyStruct[]'.
That class does not inherit 'Array', and has only a few methods of the
Array class.
* NEW: Byte[].ToString() is a new method to convert a byte array to a
string. If no length is specified, ToString() assumes that the byte array
is a zero-terminated string.
* NEW: Byte[].FromString() is a new method that fills a byte array with the
contents of a string.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Declaration of static arrays of structures is allowed.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@3031 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: Bytecode version has been increased, and so all projects must be
recompiled.

which is smaller!
* NEW: Do not compute variable position and size, as it is done by the
interpreter anyway.
[GB.EVAL]

[GB.FORM.MDI]
* NEW: Workspace.ButtonPosition is a new property that allows to put the
tab close button on the left or on the right.

* 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: 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.

[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Fixed the static array management that was broken by the 64 bits
changes.
[GB.DEBUG]

[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: Some little cosmetic changes.
[INTERPRETER]

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.

* NEW: Spanish translation updated.
* NEW: A new interpreter API for returning a pointer.
[COMPILER]
