Version 0.19 ============ svn://common-lisp.net/project/armedbear/svn/trunk/abcl (14 Mar, 2010) Features -------- * [svn r12518] *DISASSEMBLER* may now contain a hook which returns the command to disassemble compiled functions. * [svn r12516] An implementation of user-extensible sequences as proposed in Christopher Rhodes, "User-extensible sequences in Common Lisp", Proc. of the 2007 International Lisp Conference. * [svn r12513] Implement SYS:SRC and SYS:JAVA logical pathname translations for system Lisp source and the root of the Java package structure, respectively. * [svn r12505] All calls to anonymous functions and local functions that have been declared inline are now converted to LET* forms, reducing stack usage and the number of generated classes. * [svn r12487] An initial port ASDF-INSTALL now forms the first ABCL contrib. Such contribs are optionally built by the Ant target 'abcl.contrib'. ASDF-INSTALL is not expected to work very well under Windows in its present state. * [svn r12447] [ticket:80] REQUIRE now searches for ASDF systems. * [svn r12422] Jar pathname support extensively re-worked and tested so that LOAD, PROBE-FILE, TRUENAME, DIRECTORY, and WRITE-FILE-DATE all work both for local and remote jar pathnames of the form "jar:URL!/JAR-ENTRY". The loading ASDF systems from jar files is now possible. SYS:PATHNAME-JAR-P predicate signals whether a pathname references a jar. NB: jar pathnames do *not* currently work as an argument to OPEN. SYS:UNZIP implemented to unpack ZIP files. SYS:ZIP now has a three argument version for creating zip files with hierarchical entries. * [svn r12450] Collect unprocessed command-line arguments in EXT:*COMMAND-LINE-ARGUMENT-LIST* (Dennis Lambe Jr.) * [svn r12414] SYS::%GET-OUTPUT-STREAM-ARRAY returns a Lisp byte array from a Java byte array stream. * [svn 12402] ABCL.TEST.LISP:RUN-MATCHING will now execute that subset of tests which match a string.

Our with-standard-io-syntax implementation now correctly resets all necessary pprint variables. Patch by Douglas R. Miles, thanks for the contribution! * [svn r12485] Pathnames starting with "." can now have TYPE. * [svn r12484] FASLs containing "." characters not used to indicate type (i.e. ".foo.bar.baz.abcl") can now be loaded. * [svn r12422] Pathname.java URL contructor under Windows now properly interprets the drive letter. * [svn r12449] The 'abcl.jar' produced by Netbeans now contains a valid manifest (found by Paul Griffionen). * [svn r12441] ZipCache now caches all references to ZipFiles based on the last-modified time for local files. Remote files are always retrieved due to problems in the underlying JVM code. SYS:REMOVE-ZIP-CACHE implements a way to invalidate an entry given a pathname. * [svn r12439] Remove duplication of java options in Windows 'abcl.bat' script. * [svn r12437] CHAR-CODE-LIMIT is the upper execlusive limit (found by Paul Griffionen). * [svn r12436] Describe formatting was missing a newline (reported by Blake McBride). * [svn 12469] Ensure that FILE-ERROR always has a value (possibly NIL) for its PATHNAME member. * [svn r14222] MERGE-PATHNAMES no longer potentially shares structure between its result and *DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*. * [svn r12416] Fixed ANSI LAMBDA.nn test failures caused by errors in lambda inlining. * [svn r12417] [ticket:83] Fix TRANSLATE-LOGICAL-PATHNAME regression. (Alan Ruttenberg). * [svn r12412] Optimize memory efficiency of FORMAT by use of a hashtable rather than a CHAR-CODE-LIMIT array. * [svn r12408] FIND-SYMBOL requires a string argument. * [svn r12400] Make NIL (as symbol) available to the compiler. * [svn r12398] Move lambda list analysis to compile time where possible. * [svn r12397] BROADCAST-STREAM obeys default external format fixing ANSI MAKE-BROADCAST-STREAM.8. * [svn r12395] Improve arglist display for SLIME (Matthias Hölzl). * [svn r12394] Optimize array utilization in closures. * [svn r12393] Optimize array functions in compiler which don't require clearing the VALUES array. * [svn r12392] Optimize/normalize aspects of boot.lisp * [svn r12391] Prevent duplicated subclasses form occuring. Other ----- * [svn r12447] SYS::*MODULE-PROVIDER-FUNCTION* now provides a mechanism to extend the REQUIRE resolver mechanism at runtime. * [svn r12430] Ant based build no longer writes temporary files to contain the Lisp build instructions. * [svn r12481] STANDARD-CLASS now has slots to be inherited by deriving metaclasses in support of the (in progress) work on metaclass. * [svn r12425] No longer ignore the METACLASS defclass option in support of the (in progress) work on metaclass * [svn r12422] SYS::*LOAD-TRUENAME-FASL* now contains the TRUENAME of the Java "*.cls" component when loading a packed FASL. * [svn r12461] Human readable Java representations for class cast exceptions for NULL and UNBOUND values. * [svn r12453 et. ff.] Large numbers of the implementation of Java primitives have been declared in a way so that a stack trace provides a much more readable indication of what has been invoked. Primitives which extend Primitive are prefixed with "pf_"; those which extend SpecialOperator are prefixed with "sf_". * [svn r12422] The internal structure of a jar pathname has changed. Previously a pathname with a DEVICE that was itself a pathname referenced a jar. This convention was not able to simultaneously represent both jar entries that were themselves jar files (as occurs with packed FASLs within JARs) and devices which refer to drive letters under Windows. Now, a pathname which refers to a jar has a DEVICE which is a proper list of at most two entries. The first entry always references the "outer jar", and the second entry (if it exists) references the "inner jar". * [svn r12419] Ant 'abcl.release' target centralizes the build steps necessary for creating releases. * [svn r12409] Compiler now rewrites function calls with (LAMBDA …) as the operator to LET* forms. * [svn r12415] CLASS-FILE renamed to ABCL-CLASS-FILE to prepare for (in progress) reworking of Stream inheritance. * [svn r123406] 'test/lisp/abcl/bugs.lisp' forms a default location to add unit tests for current bug testing. The intention is to move these tests into the proper location elsewhere in the test suite once they have been fixed. * [svn r124040] Java tests upgraded to use junit-4.8.1. Netbeans project runtime classpath now uses compilation results before source directory, allowing the invocation of ABCL in interpreted mode if the Ant 'abcl.compile.lisp.skip' property is set. Java unit tests for some aspects of jar pathname work added. * New toplevel 'doc' directory now contains: + [svn r12410] Design for the (in progress) reworking of the Stream inheritance. + [svn r12433] Design and current status for the re-implementation of jar pathnames. * [svn r12402] Change ABCL unit tests to use the ABCL-TEST-LISP definition contained in 'abcl.asd'. Fixed and renabled math-tests. Added new tests for work related to handling jar pathnames. * [svn r12401] The REFERENCES-NEEDED-P field of the LOCAL-FUNCTION structure now tracks whether local functions need the capture of an actual function object.
