Date: Fri, 15 Mar 1996 13:47:37 +0100 (MET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199603151247.NAA02250@pauillac.inria.fr> (raw)
Caml Special Light 1.15 has just been released. The main novelties are:
* Caml Special Light now runs under Windows NT and 95. Many thanks to
Kevin Gallo (Microsoft Research) who contributed his initial port.
In addition to the command-line compilers, there is also a graphical
user interface for the toplevel derived from Jean-Marie Geffroy's GUI
for Caml Light.
* csllex now generates tables for a table-driven automaton.
The resulting lexers are smaller and run faster.
* Completely automatic configuration script.
* Typing: more stringent checking of module type definitions against
manifest module type specifications.
* Toplevel: recursive definitions of values now working.
* Native-code compiler, all platforms:
toplevel "let"s with refutable patterns now working;
fixed bug in assignment to float record fields;
direct support for floating-point negation and absolute value.
* Native-code compiler, x86: fixed bug with tail calls (with more than
4 arguments) from a function with a one-word stack frame.
* Native-code compiler, Sparc: problem with -compact fixed.
* Thread library: support for non-blocking writes; scheduler revised.
* Unix library: bug in gethostbyaddr fixed; bounds checking for read,
write, etc.
This release is distributed in source format, diffs from earlier
releases, and binaries for Windows, all at the usual place
