Hi everyone, Last week we released Emscripten 2.0.0. That's a big milestone as it's the first version to not support the old fastcomp backend anymore,
https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/11319 You can still use it by using an older version (the last to support fastcomp is 1.40.1), but the new upstream backend is better in every way! And it's been the default version when you install "latest" etc. for quite a while now. This is also the first version to not support Python 2.*, and only support 3.* Both of those don't have immediate benefits, but they are letting us do a lot of cleanups and simplifications. See https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/11860 We've already improved code quality quite a bit in just a week, and there's a lot more to come. These simplifications will speed up development. They will also unblock some things that were tricky to do while we supported two backends, such as some link time improvements and better debugging support - specifically we aim to do less during -O0 links, both for speed and to properly preserve DWARF info (for example, one of the first parts of that is in https://github.com/WebAssembly/binaryen/pull/3044). - Alon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "emscripten-discuss" group.
