* OPT: Don't use glibc memcmp() to compare strings. My own routine is a
little faster according to valgrind.
* OPT: The UTF-8 String class routines Left(), Mid() and Right() have been
optimized. The positions of the first 256 characters of the last string
processed by the String class are cached.
* OPT: Some native methods can be called like any other native subroutines.
But that can be used only inside the interpreter, not in a component.
* OPT: The '&' operator is faster now when it takes two arguments only (the
most frequent case).
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@4106 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: The startup class icon is now just drawn with a dark outline.
* NEW: Error messages updated.
* NEW: French translation updated.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Inheritance is stricter now: the child symbol must have exactly the
same kind than the parent symbol.
* BUG: A child method must return the same datatype as its parent method
now.
* NEW: Gambas 3 executable mime description file and icon have been renamed
so that they do not conflict with Gambas 2 files.
[GB.FORM]
* BUG: IconView.Find() has been renamed as IconView.FindAt(), to avoid the
conflict with the inherited UserControl.Find() method.
[GB.FORM.MDI]
* BUG: Workspace.Children has been renamed as Workspace.Windows, because
the Workspace.Children property was in conflict with the inherited
Container.Children property.
[GB.GTK]
* NEW: ListView, TreeView and ColumnView Find() method has been renamed as
'FindAt' to match the IconView class.
[GB.IMAGE]
* NEW: Color.SetRGB() and Color.SetHSV() are two new methods that takes a
color as an integer, modifies one of its component, and returns it. They
are faster than using the ColorInfo class.
* NEW: Color.GetAlpha() returns the alpha component of a color from its
integer value.
[GB.QT4]
* NEW: ListView, TreeView and ColumnView Find() method has been renamed as
'FindAt' to match the IconView class.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@4015 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: Breakpoints are correctly reset when opening a new project.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: The GB.NewString(), GB.NewZeroString() and GB.TempString() API
signature has changed. All components have been updated accordingly.
* OPT: Many optimizations to speed up the interpreter.
[GB.EVAL]
* NEW: During syntax highlighting, the first character of class names is
automatically converted to uppercase.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2992 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: Architecture detection.
* NEW: Updated libtool macros.

* 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]

git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@2505 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: Requesting a component interface automatically loads the component
now.
* NEW: The Image and Picture functions in the interpreter API were removed.
[GB.DRAW]
* NEW: A new function in the Draw interface to get the size of a picture.
This function replaces the removed Picture interpreter API.
[GB.IMAGE]
* NEW: This is a new component that manages images in memory. It implements
the Image class, can create images of many formats (RGB, RGBA, BGRA...)
and convert image data between different formats. This component replaces
the previous interpreter Image API. All components were ported to this
new image management system by loading this component automatically.
Beware that the Image constructor has changed! The transparent property
has been removed, and there is an optional color argument that is used
for initializing the image data. Moreover, many classes (Webcam,
PdfDocument...) that have an Image property lost their Picture property.
Now to get a Picture, you must use the Image property and then convert
the Image to a Picture.
[GB.QT]
* BUG: As now the Image class overrides the one located in gb.image, it
must be declared early, at least earlier than the Picture class.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1803 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* BUG: If loading a class has failed, do not try to load it twice. Raise
an error instead.

* NEW: Bytecode version has been incremented. All projects must be
recompiled!
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* BUG: Rewrite code that used badly overridden symbols.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Check that the overridding symbol is compatible with the overridden
one. For example, a static method can be overridden by a static method
only, a constant can be overriden by a static property, and so on.
* NEW: A new error message for badly overridden symbols.
* NEW: Tr$() is a new function that translates its argument and returns it.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: Rewrite code that used badly overridden symbols. Affected classes
are: Window, TabStrip,
[GB.FORM.MDI]

and save window position by specifying the settings key.

* BUG: Rewrite code that used badly overridden symbols. Affected classes
are: Window, TabStrip,

[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Really really fix the bit manipulation functions.
* NEW: Support for types object arrays. For example: Label[] for an array
of Labels.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Support for types object arrays.
* BUG: Do not store the source file full path into object files, so that
rmplint does not cry.
[GB.GTK]
* BUG: Fix the tray icon management. Now GTK+ icons work on Gnome and KDE,
and are fully transparent!
* BUG: Tray icons are correctly refreshed when the icon is changed.
[GB.QT]

property is defined in the same file of course.
* NEW: Mid$() can be used on the left side of an assignment.
[GB.FORM]
* BUG: ValueBox now reformats its contents after its Value property has
been set.
[GB.GTK]

the SCIM input method does not work yet.
* BUG: Form are their own event observer only if no event observer is
defined at form instanciation.
* BUG: The default tray icon is the same as gb.qt now.
[GB.QT]
* BUG: TrayIcon objects are correctly destroyed at program exit.
* BUG: Form are their own event observer only if no event observer is
defined at form instanciation.
* BUG: TrayIcon Width, Height, ScreenX and ScreenY properties do not crash
anymore when the tray icon is hidden. They return zero instead.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1187 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: 2.1 changes were merged.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Static properties or methods returning virtual classes work again.
Color[xxx] is one of them.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@1091 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.

[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.

* 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]

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
