- Changes of 0.19 from 0.18:
- ==========================
-
- 18.11.2001 alpha1:
- - finaly added the OPT LIBRARY to generate a library, currently very
- limited, but it's just a beginning :)
- Special thanks to Marco Antoniazzi, without his help, it wouldn't be that
- simple :)
-
- 30.11.2001 alpha2:
- - INCBIN '*file' is now allowed. (* means the path of the source code)
- - added support for local OBJECTs
- - bugfixes reported by Marco Antoniazzi
- - fixed a bug related to alignment for OPT LIBRARY
-
- 9.12.2001 alpha3:
- - announced support for OOP4A project
- (more: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bridge/5737)
- - in some occasions (when no external references used), phxass produced
- executable directly without the intermediate object file, that PowerD
- requires
- - all the LIBRARY definition only modules did an error, fixed
- - bugfixes reported by Michel Bagmeijer
- - pr2m: some string fixed and at last translated from E to D :)
- - removed few enforcer hits
-
- 12.1.2002 alpha4:
- - (partial) direct support of oop.library (oop4a project):
- - You can use: DEF obj('class') instead of: DEF obj=new('class')
- - deallocation of the class is done automaticaly on the procedure end, no need for: del(obj)
- - added german powerd.catalog by Olaf Groening (thanks!)
- - updated dmod tool to handle new binary module features
- - fixed struct and cunion saving in binary modules
- - fixed object loading from binary modules
- - number defined like a string ("xyz0") can now use also the "\j#" string extension
- - fixed global/local variable definition
- - SUB can now contain a variable/constant definition
- - IF x-- or WHILE x++ or similar do now work correctly
- - You can now use #else in conjunction with #ifdef/#ifndef and #endif
- - bugfixes reported by Michel Bagmeijer
- - no more 'OPT WB' is needed for the click-on-icon-launching,
- all the startup headers (except some selected) do now contain a wbmessage handler
- which makes it possible to launch a compiler proggy from workbench. Each header is
- from this reason 126 or 128 bytes longer.
- - fixed gadgets/layout.m module
-
- 17.2.2002 alpha5:
- - inlined assembly (ASM/ENDASM) didn't work at all, fixed
- - PowerPC inlined assembly can now use constants (eg.: addi r3,r4,CONST)
- - added support for multi dimensional items in objects (upto 3d)
- - improved TDEF support
- - binary modules supports now OFFSET/RELOFS/ALIGN keywords in OBJECTs
- - You can now use a[][]:CHAR instead of a:PTR TO PTR TO CHAR in OBJECTs and variable DEFinitions
- - multiple pointers do now work correctly a[][]:CHAR can be accessed with c:=a[x][y] correctly
- - fixed a stack problem with functions as function arguments (68k and ppc)
- - fixed ieee Pow() function
- - added F2I() function (double to integer conversion with rounding)
- - added Rnd() and RndQ() functions for ppc
- - Rnd() doesn't produce exactly the same results as 68k function, reason: cpu differences
- 68k generates carry bit as unsigned operation, while ppc as signed
- - improved preprocessor, macros without arguments are now allowed: '#define macro() xyz'
- - bugfixes reported by Michel Bagmeijer
- - fixed createlib.html
- - removed some enforcer hits
- - h2m now supports structs with names defined at the end of the struct
- - modules are now OS3.9 compatible
- - modules are not included in this alpha update, download it from: www.volny.cz/kuchinka
- - updated ifunc.html
- - a small fix of fd2m
- - bugfixes reported by Miklos Nemeth
- - no more phxlnk needed, PowerD use now only the vlink
- - movea.b bug fixed
- - bugfixes reported by Kai Wolf
- - fixed a bug or newer modules message
-
- 13.4.2002 alpha6:
- - You can replace (not only) powerd.lib functions just by defining them
- - fixed length arg in RealStr() function
- - fixed EStrCopy(), EStringF() functions
- - improved support of OOP4A project
- - You are allowed to use directly: var.func(args) instead of domethode(var,'func',args)
- - added ppc functions: EStringF(), RealStr(), RealEStr()
- - added/fixed all the quoted-expression functions: Eval(), MapList(), ForAll(), Exists(), SelectList()
- - 68k only!!!, ppc knows currently only Eval()
- - bugfixes reported by Marco Antoniazzi
- - IF (~x) compiled wrong
- - IF (a) AND ~(b) compiled wrong

- - added syntax error when 'CASE something:' used. (if the colon is used)
- - bugfixes reported by Nemeth Miklos
- - added a warning when assigning a value to an array (not item of array)
-
- 16.6.2002 alpha7:
- - added a ddbg tool to debug Your sources!!!!! :)
- - everything located in ddbg drawer
- - currently heavily unusable and buggy
- - read the ddbg.readme first to know how the things should go
- - fixed assembler error when EXCEPTDO without Raise() occured in ppc code generator
- - fixed eight enforcer hits
