Seed7 Release 2015-06-14

Hello,


I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20150614.tgz In the
Seed7 programming language new statements and operators can be
declared easily. Types are first class objects and therefore
templates/generics need no special syntax. Object orientation is used
when it brings advantages and not in places when other solutions are
more obvious.


Seed7 is covered by the GPL (and LGPL for the Seed7 runtime library).


Changelog:
- The exponentiation operator for float values has been improved to
    work correct, when the base is negative zero, one or NaN (not a
    number).
- The chapter describing float exponentiation in the manual has been
    improved.
- The parse operator for integers has been improved to recognize,
    when there is no digit after the sign.
- The makefile mk_msvc.mak has been improved to work without calling
    vcvars32 before.
- The function isPositiveZero has been added to float.s7i.
- Checks for the exponentiation with integer and float exponent have
    been added to chkflt.sd7.
- Checks for the parse operator have been added to chkbig.sd7 and
    chkint.sd7.
- Checks for the operators div, rem, mdiv and mod have been added to
    chkint.sd7.
- Documentation comments have been added to float.s7i, cc_conf.s7i,
    fltlib.c and flt_rtl.c.
- The configuration values NAN_COMPARISON_OKAY, POW_FUNCTION_OKAY,
    HAS_EXP2, HAS_EXP10, INT_MIN, INT_MAX and MAX_INTEGER_IN_FLOATTYPE
    have been added to cc_conf.s7i
- The function intParse in int_rtl.c has been improved to recognize
    when there is no digit after the sign.
- Calls of logFunction and logError have been added to analyze.c,
    arr_rtl.c, cmd_rtl.c, flt_rtl.c infile.c, numlit.c, numutl.c
- The function defineTempVariable has been added to
    comp/expr_util.s7i.
- The functions process_const_flt_ipow and process_const_flt_pow
    have been added to comp/flt_act.s7i.
- The function process_const_int_mdiv in comp/int_act.s7i has been
    improved.
- The function bigIntToDouble in numutl.c has been improved to use
    a right shift instead of a division by two.
- In numutl.c and numutl.h the prototypes of the functions
    getDecimalInt, getDecimalBigInt, getDecimalBigRational and
    getDecimalFloat have been changed to use ustriType instead of
    void *.
- The function getDecimalInt in numutl.c has been improved to do the
    conversion without calling intParse.
- The macros logFunctionX and logErrorX have been added to common.h.
    This allows the activation of selected logging functions by adding
    X.
- In str_rtl.c macro definitions for strelem_memcmp and
    search_strelem have been added. The macros are defined, when the
    functions wmemcmp respectively wmemchr are available and when they
    work with 32-bit data elements.
- The macros 'likely' and 'unlikely' have been added to functions in
    striutl.c.
- The files sql_util.c and sql_util.h have been renamed to numutl.c
    respectively numutl.h
- The program chkccomp.c has been improved to write definitions of
    CAST_INT_TO_FLOAT_OKAY, HAS_EXP2, HAS_EXP10, NAN_COMPARISON_OKAY,
    FLOAT_ZERO_TIMES_INFINITE_OKAY, NAN_MULTIPLICATION_OKAY,
    NAN_DIVISION_OKAY, POWER_UNDERFLOW_WITH_SIGN, POWER_OF_ZERO_OKAY,
    POWER_OF_ONE_OKAY, POWER_OF_NAN_OKAY, PRINTS_NEGATIVE_ZERO,
    MAX_INTEGER_IN_FLOAT, MAX_INTEGER_IN_DOUBLE, HAS_WMEMCMP,
    HAS_WMEMCHR and HAS_WMEMSET.
- Definitions of C_COMPILER_SCRIPT and GET_CC_VERSION_INFO_OPTIONS
    have been added to mk_msvc.mak. This definitions are used by the
    program setpaths.c to write definitions of the macros C_COMPILER
    and GET_CC_VERSION_INFO to version.h

Thomas Mertes
