List of user-visible changes in GNU Smalltalk
NEWS FROM 3.2.3 TO 3.2.4
o Autoload is extended to allow plugging in arbitrary loaders.
o Array items in a CStruct didn't work, this is fixed now.
o DLD could have problems when the same library was requested multiple
times.
o Errors in the bind() system call were not detected correctly; this
has been fixed.
o Fixes for platforms with 113-bit long doubles.
o Fixes to Delay in the presence of delays with the exact same expiration.
o Fixes to the HTTP package, including correct flushing of POST requests
and doesNotUnderstand exceptions when the host did not exist.
o GLUT bindings now build correctly under Windows.
o Many smalltalk-mode improvements.
o New methods: TextCollector>>#critical:,
o nil can be passed to a C function accepting a #cObjectPtr (i.e.
void **) argument.
o SocketAddress>>#allByName: returns nil now, instead of an empty array,
when getaddrinfo succeeds but returns no address for the requested
address class.
o SocketAddress>>#byName: returns addresses for the default address class
when the receiver is SocketAddress (and not a subclass).
o Support for older versions of GnuTLS.
o Swazoo's static content serving was broken and has been fixed.
o The GST_PACKAGE macro supports having multiple .la files in its last
argument. gst-package's --prepare option was broken and has been fixed.
o The NetClients exception ProtocolError now includes the erroneous
response. Similarly, the package includes ProtocolNotification which
is used, for example, for HTTP redirects.
o Updated the Squeak/Pharo fileout parser.
o Updated VisualGST.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWS FROM 3.2.2 TO 3.2.3
o Class attributes can have more than 1 keyword.
o Documented #byteArrayOut C call argument passing mode.
o Fixed crash when an invalid UnicodeString was created using
#changeClassTo:
o Fixed deadlock with #atEnd and two-way pipes.
o Fixed bugs when adding instance variables to an existing class.
o Fixed Socket>>#isPeerAlive falsely returning true.
o Fixed some bugs in UTF-7 conversion.
o FreeBSD port and 64-bit Darwin port. The latter requires a
pre-installed libsigsegv.
o "gst-convert -f squeak" reads binary selectors with more than two
characters; however they should be shortened with rewrite rules
to use the output.
o gst-doc can generate sensible documentation for a package if
some of its prerequisite are not loaded, even if some of the
package's classes subclass from the prerequisite.
o GTK+ bindings are generated correctly for newer versions of GLib
(tested up to 2.26).
o If found, pre-installed libsigsegv, libffi and libltdl are used by
default.
o Improvements for Emacs mode. Installation of Emacs mode detects
Debian's /etc/emacs/site-start.d, and a --with-lispstartdir option
is provided for distributions that are not Red Hat- or Debian-based.
o Machine-specific optimizations for x86-64, and other microoptimizations
resulting in small but consistent performance improvements.
o More out of memory conditions are detected.
o New methods: ByteArray>>#castTo:, ByteArray>>#asCData,
String>>#asCData, UndefinedObject>>#inheritsFrom:
o New goodie: Announcements.
o Number class>>#readFrom: can parse numbers in scientific notation.
o Package descriptions do not need to include a <file> item for each
<filein> item. However, it is still possible to include them for
backwards compatibility, and it is possible to include a source file
as both <filein> and <built-file> (so that gst-package --dist will
skip it).
o Packages can be downloaded using HTTPS if GnuTLS libraries are
present.
o Performance statistics printed by -V are now correct.
o Scoped methods ("A class >> a") can be used in an "A class [ ... ]"
block.
o Semaphore>>#wait returns nil if the wait was interrupted externally
(e.g. from Process>>#resume).
o String>>#asCData: and String>>#asCData NULL-terminate their output.
o Support for timeouts when waiting on a Semaphore.
o Swazoo supports SCGI. Its configuration however is still manual,
since the Seaside and Iliad adaptors do not know about it.
o Updated VisualGST.
