* Change PKGNAME as a name of tarball
Changelog:
GnuCOBOL 2.2 released (20170906)
* Move to GPL/LGPL 3
* New GnuCOBOL features (too much to list)
** User Defined Functions, FUNCTION-ID.
** New intrinsic functions
ABSOLUTE-VALUE alias for ABS
CURRENCY-SYMBOL CURRENCY-SYMBOL of the current program
FORMATTED-CURRENT-DATE ISO 8601 datetime function
FORMATTED-DATE ISO 8601 datetime function
FORMATTED-DATETIME ISO 8601 datetime function
FORMATTED-TIME ISO 8601 datetime function
TEST-FORMATTED-DATETIME ISO 8601 datetime function
INTEGER-OF-FORMATTED-DATE date to integer
HIGHEST-ALGEBRAIC now implemented
LOWEST-ALGEBRAIC now implemented
LOCALE-COMPARE now implemented
NUMVAL-F now implemented
TEST-NUMVAL now implemented
TEST-NUMVAL-C now implemented
TEST-NUMVAL-F now implemented
LENGTH-AN alias for BYTE-LENGTH
MODULE-CALLER-ID return the name of the caller
MODULE-DATE current module: compilation date
MODULE-TIME current module: compilation time
MODULE-FORMATTED-DATE current module: formatted datetime
MODULE-ID current module: PROGRAM-ID
MODULE-PATH current module: path on compile time
MODULE-SOURCE current module: name on compile time
MONETARY-DECIMAL-POINT LOCALE based fiscal decimal point
MONETARY-THOUSANDS-SEPARATOR LOCALE based fiscal visual grouping separator
Note:
The functions that are actually available as intrinsic functions depend
on the -std used. Function names that aren't marked as intrinsic functions
by the current -std can be used freely as user defined words or
even as user defined functions.
** New system functions
C$CALLEDBY return the name of the caller
CBL_GC_FORK fork current process (not on Windows)
CBL_GC_WAITPID wait for process to end
CBL_GC_GETOPT (CBL_OC_GETOPT) comand lineoption parser for COBOL
CBL_GC_PRINTABLE (C$PRINTABLE) check if character is printable
CBL_GC_HOSTED (CBL_OC_HOSTED) provides access to C extern variables,
like stdin, errno
CBL_GC_NANOSLEEP CBL_OC_NANOSLEEP
CBL_GET_SCR_SIZE get current terminal size - if any
CBL_READ_KBD_CHAR get character from terminal
CBL_SET_CSR_POS set current position on terminal
x'E4' clear terminal screen
x'E5' ring the bell
** many new / extended COBOL statements from COBOL2002/2014 and extensions
from different COBOL dialects
** more SWITCHes: from SWITCH-01 to SWITCH-36 and its variants from many
COBOL dialects
** more IEEE numeric types added, FLOAT-DECIMAL-16, FLOAT-DECIMAL-34, etc
** more literal types added, numeric boolean etc.
** most of the COBOL 2014 spec Compiler Directive Facility is in
** optional: stricter syntax checks
** refactored and extended compiler and runtime messages with available
translations (currently to Spanish, Portuguese and Dutch, partial to German)
** screen IO: many extended ACCEPT DISPLAY and SCREEN SECTION changes
** Direct call interface for C:
CALL-CONVENTIONS for CALLs and PROCEDURE DIVISION
SIZE of parameters specified for CALL ... BY VALUE
RETURN NOTHING for calling void functions
RETURN ADDRESS OF VAR for calling functions returning a pointer
PROCEDURE DIVISION RETURNING OMITTED -> callable as void function
** Much, much more!
* New cobc options:
** New -std options:
cobol2014 COBOL 2014 Standard
xopen X/Open COBOL Standard
mf-strict Micro Focus COBOL compatibility - strict
ibm-strict IBM COBOL compatibility - strict
ibm-strict MVS/VM COBOL compatibility - strict
acu ACUCOBOL-GT compatibility
acu-strict ACUCOBOL-GT compatibility - strict
bs2000 BS2000 COBOL compatibility (back again)
bs2000-strict BS2000 COBOL compatibility - strict
rm RM-COBOL compatibility
rm-strict RM-COBOL compatibility - strict
Note:
The GnuCOBOL compiler tries to limit both the feature-set and reserved words
to the specified compiler when the "strict" dialects are used.
COBOL sources compiled with these dialects are therefore likely to compile
with the specified compiler and vice versa: sources that were compiled on
the specified compiler should compile without any issues with GnuCOBOL.
With the "non-strict" dialects GnuCOBOL will activate the complete
feature-set where it doesn't directly conflict with the specified dialect,
including reserved words and GnuCOBOL specific extensions.
COBOL sources compiled with these dialects therefore may work only
with GnuCOBOL. COBOL sources may need a change because of rich feature-set
and reserved words in GnuCOBOL, otherwise offending words may be removed
by `-fno-reserved=word`.
COBOL-85, X/Open COBOL, COBOL 2002 and COBOL 2014 are always "strict".
** New listing options:
-t listing, -T wide listing, --tlines=lines, lines per page of listing
-Xref
Note: -P, generate preprocessor listing, is still available (and improved)
** All compiler configuration flags may be set on command line
to override a specific setting of the current -std, see cobc --help
** All Warnings can be explicit enabled/disabled or even marked as error,
see cobc --help
-Wunreachable report on possible unreachable statements
** Options for the C compiler/linker:
-K <entry>, compile entry point as static (resolve at link time)
-A, add options to C compile phase
-Q, add options to C link phase
** Miscellaneous
-i -info, display build/environment
-D define symbol for Compiler Directive Facility
-j -job=args, run job after compile
input filename of '-' reads source from standard in
For more: see cobc --help
* New cobcrun options:
-i -info, display build/environment
-r -runtime-env, display runtime configuration
-c -config, set runtime config from file
-M -module, set path/module name when looking for entry
* New build features
make test downloads NIST testsuite if necessary
now usable with parallel builds (make -j4 test)
make checkall runs both the internal an NIST testsuite
** testsuite defaults to coloured output
** Windows(tm) Visual Studio build support files added,
options to validate the software generated with VS against both test suites
** removed maintainer mode - if files need a rebuild because of a change
they are always rebuild
** help2man, bison and flex are checked during configure,
if they need to be invoked and are missing a useful error message is given
** All files created by GnuCOBOL runtime use the same file permission settings
now: COB_FILE_MODE which was changed to 0666
** changed unix package name from "gnu-cobol" to "gnucobol"
