Hi people, 3.0.1 is basically ready. There are a good deal of bugfixes,
the good news being that almost all of them are *not* regressions from
2.3.6 but were also present in older releases. In particular:
* bug 103 (making documentation when libraries are absent) is a regression
* fixed crash on LargeInteger>>#divExact: (I didn't post the patch here)
is a regression
These other changes are not regressions:
* added SequenceableCollection>>#atRandom and
String>>#allOccurrencesOfRegex:
* eliminated possible infinite loop in CompiledCode>>#hash.
* fixed Symbol>>#numArgs for methods starting with an underscore.
* fixed problems with substitution of regexes that match the empty string.
* fixed problems with very short delays.
* fixed segmentation violation when gethostbyname returned NULL.
* test floatmath.st failing on Alpha is not a regression, it only
started to fail because coverage improved
This makes 3.0 even more solid than I had expected.
I don't have time to do the release today (nor will I in the weekend),
so I'm asking for a little helping hand. Would anyone of you please go
through the documentation (classes.texi or gst-base.info) and document
methods saying "Not commented"? In some cases they are pretty obscure,
in some cases you can simply add "private - " to the category and
gst-doc will omit them.
Patches against git are welcome. Let me remind you that you can also
grab the latest published stable snapshot with
wget -O smalltalk-3.0-latest.tar.gz \
'http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=smalltalk.git;a=snapshot;h=stable-3.0'
