- Sub: Macapp Timing with IBS
-
- MacApp Timing Data
- Comparison of Standard MPW 3.x Versus MPW & The Debugger with IBS
- ( IBS = Incremental build System, announced at the May developers conference)
-
- Machine: Mac II with PMMU, 5 Megs RAM, CDC 150 HD & 128K RAM cache
- System 6.0.3 with MPW 3.0 Shell, 3.1b1 Pascal & Link
- Program: Drawshapes, compiled & Linked with "SYM ON"
-
- Std MPW MPW+IBS time to change 1 procedure
- MaBuild ?? ??
- compile 127 25 seconds (IBS has Pascal doing incremental compiles!)
- Link 124 2 (incremental Link for IBS)
- Rez 16 0
- Launch APPL 4 0 - no need to reLaunch the APPL, it is still running !
- --- ---
- Totals 271 27 seconds
-
- Time saved = 244 seconds or 4 Minutes and 4 seconds.
-
- Beta versions of IBS have been shipping with the Universal version of
- The Debugger since June. I expect to ship V1.0 on August 7.
- All registered users will be automatically updated to it (via US Mail).
-
- Other facilites of The Debugger of interest to the MacApp community are the
- ability of it to dynamically define or REDEFINE types while your program is
- running. This is useful as The Debugger is able to digest definitions of the
- form:
- aRec = RECORD n:integer; ... xx:ARRAY[1..n] of WORD end;
- ( i.e. variable size records)
-
- The redefinition facility is useful as the compiler may screw up your type
- definition, or as in the above case, you cannot say what you want to in Pascal.
-
- The Debugger and the MacApp debugger can be coresident.
- The Debugger is capable of displaying objects in a structured form when used
- in conjunction with MPW 3.1.
