[COMPILER]
* BUG: Fix parsing of 'Debug' symbol in preprocessor lines.
* BUG: Don't crash anymore if an error is raised while reading command-line arguments.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Optimization of conditional jumps based on values known to be Boolean.
* BUG: Jump optimization is effective when debugging information is generated.
* BUG: The '/' operator correctly returns a Float if its arguments are Float.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Optimization of conditional jumps based on values known to be Boolean.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for conditional jumps optimization.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Optimize jumps pointing at a JUMP instruction.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Avoid conversion to boolean when possible in conditional jumps.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Implement overflow detection in integer arithmetic operations. The UNSAFE keyword disable them to get full speed.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Put less code in the main interpreter loop because it became too big again with gcc 12.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Some optimizations in the parser.
* NEW: Make the compiler more clever when deciding if an identifier is a reserved keyword or not.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Bool@(), Byte@()... functions can be the target of an affectation now.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Bool@(), Byte@()... functions can be the target of an affectation now.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Bool@(), Byte@()... functions can be the target of an affectation now.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Optimization of small integer floating point constants.
[INTEGER]
* OPT: Optimization of small integer floating point constants.
[GB.JIT]
* OPT: Optimization of small integer floating point constants.
[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.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Support for local variable manipulation optimization.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Avoid unneeded type conversion swhen manipulating local variables.
* OPT: Various optimizations of the interpreter execution loop. Apparently a smaller execution loop has a big impact on speed. I guess this is related to the size of the various CPU caches.
[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: Update 'README' and 'README.md' files.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Add Md5(), Sha1(), Sha256() and Sha512() functions.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Add Md5(), Sha1(), Sha256() and Sha512() functions.
[GB.HASH]
* NEW: This is a new component that implements the Md5(), Sha1(), Sha256() and Sha512() functions.
The code comes from BusyBox.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Remove useless LIKELY() and UNLIKELY() macros.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Remove useless LIKELY() and UNLIKELY() macros.
* NEW: Add a class flag for bytecode strictly older than 3.18.
[GB.DEBUG]
* BUG: Fix incorrect 'printf' format on 32-bits architectures.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Update help text layout.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Add a '-F' option that converts a piece of form data into Gambas code.
* NEW: Update help text layout.
[ARCHIVER]
* NEW: Update help text layout.
[INFORMER]
* NEW: Update help text layout.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: 'EXEC / SHELL ... TO ... WITH ERROR' is a new syntax that redirects
both the standard output and the standard error of a process to a string.
The support for that feature was already present inside the interpreter!
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Fix generation of floating point constants whose value is an integer.
* BUG: Fix a possible memory corruption after the end of the compilation of the first class.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: The parser now does not store integer numbers in its global symbol table anymore.
* OPT: Some other little optimizations here and here. The compiler is now about 5% faster.
[ARCHIVER]
* NEW: Compile with '-O3' optimization flag.
[INFORMER]
* NEW: Compile with '-O3' optimization flag.
[GB.EVAL]
* OPT: The parser now does not store integer numbers in its global symbol table anymore.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Shr, Shl, Asr, Asl, Lsl, Lsr, Rol and Ror can now be used as operators.
* NEW: Now integer constants can be simple integer expressions in array, constant and enumeration declarations.
[GB.EVAL]
* BUG: Fix a compiler warning.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: 'STATIC' keyword can be used instead of 'DIM' for declaring local static variables.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Support for local static variables.
[GB.DEBUG]
* NEW: Support for local static variables.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Add the '-n' option that defines a default namespace for exported classes.
* BUG: The generation of '.info' file now uses the exported name of classes.
* NEW: 'EXPORT TO <Namespace>' exports the class as '<NameSpace>:<class name>'.
* NEW: 'EXPORT TO DEFAULT' now exports to the global namespace.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* NEW: Update French translation.
* NEW: Support of the new '.list' file format.
* NEW: Support of the new EXPORT AS syntax.
* NEW: Update error messages.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: EXPORT AS is a new syntax for exporting a class with a specific name that can include a namespace.
* NEW: New header file to start sharing reader code with the 'gb.eval' component.
* NEW: Class names can include a colon. The part before the colon is assumed to be a namespace.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Classes exported in a namespace are now declared both in the global symbol table and in the local symbol table of their component.
* NEW: Class names are now allocated inside the symbol tables, and not in the class objects anymore.
[GB.EVAL]
* NEW: Share some reader code with the compiler.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Set compilation flags with the '-f' generic option now.
* NEW: New compilation option to check variable prefixes against their datatype, and print a warning if they do not match.
