Release notes for ABCL 0.13

Major changes and new features

JSR-223: Java Scripting Plugin

ABCL supports - when built with the javax.script package in the CLASSPATH - the interfaces defined in JSR-223.

Support for inlining FLOAT results

When given the right DECLARE forms, ABCL is now able to inline calculations and intermediate values relating to FLOAT types. Before, it used to box all FLOAT values and results, without inlining.

Compiler cleanups

Lots of code cleanup in the compiler, such as elimination of nearly-equivalent code blocks.

TRACE-ing fixes

TRACE should no longer blow up when tracing FORMAT or inside the compiler.

Support for "partial" wildcards in CL:DIRECTORY

Patterns such as #p"cl-*.lisp" are now supported.

Release notes for ABCL 0.12 and older

These release notes have not been created before. If someone takes the effort to create them, they will be added for 0.11 and 0.12.
