Unicon 13.0 Beta - What is new ------------------------------ New
features highlight: - Polishing Pattern Type support - HTTPS support -
Concurrent threads and Native-Coswitch-based coexpressions in the same
build i.e: One unified build, no more threads/without-threads versions. Bug
Fixes * Fix insert(Table,...); if the last value is missing it defaults to
&null * Fix level on co-expression switch * Fix &source to point at the
activating co-expression * Fix buffer overflow caused by going over
MAXDISPLAYNAME * Fix dynamic c functions loading on Mac OS * Fix
chmod(file, string), and getaddrinfo(h, non-string) * Fixes for where() ,
directory(), system() on Windows * Fix tracing on intarray variable
references * Fix monitoring crash * Various fixes for HTTP support * Treat
the end of a stream/file as the end of the input line when doing line-based
read * Various fixes for C calling interface * Fix for the #line bug! *
Protect against crypt() failure and set &errno accordingly. * Fix sign
overflow when passing -1 as a second arg to reads() for a messaging file *
Get stdin working as input source file on “-” even with “-x” * Temp files
fixes for Windows * Fix memory leak in getimstr24. * Fix writing 3D window
contents to an image file * Fix: rename link() to hardlink() * Fix: return
the correct mutex id when doing unlock() * Make map() thread safe * Fix
memory leak in list to int array macro * Fix -x command line argument on
Windows Improvements and Additions * preliminary support for ~ in front of
filenames in open() * trap() now works on Windows * Lists used internally
by the runtime system now have negative serial numbers * The availability
of native coswitch now is reported via &features * Improve architecture
detection with &features * Improve behavior of pseudo-tty read() * Add
WorkPool to the threads package * Add repl(L, n) for n copies of list L *
Enable reads(dir, i), sys_errstr() on Windows * Proper cleanup for pipes *
Better png error handling Patterns Specific fixes and additions: * Fix
regex concat of string and cset * Normalize error reporting during pattern
match * Add some pattern runtime errors * Pattern image work-in-progress *
Improve behavior of regex asterisk operator on other regexes * Fix codegen
for curly brace alternation with parenthesis * Implement regex + operator
on string literal * Improve redirection handling in multi-program scripts
Building from Sources: * Huge cleanup of compiler warnings, unused or
uninitialized variables * Restore the ability to have working
co-expressions via PthreadCoswitch without Concurrency * Native coswitch
support was added for 32/64 bit ARM on linux and for Mac x86_64 * Standard
test suite now runs on windows - not yet packaged with binary distribution
* Build gui libraries only when the graphics subsystem is built * Introduce
arm_64_linux config for ARM aarch64 * Declare temp vars for list
comprehension Unicon Preprocessor/Compiler- Fix and improve the behavior of
various options * Detect and handle no file argument while other args are
provided * Add -h, -help : same as --help * Make -s and -v consistent with
icont. -s implies -v0 and vice versa * Pass -s if present to the linker
stage * Handle -s in unicon as well allowing fully silent builds, same as
icont Known Issues: * Installation to a non default directory other than
(c:\unicon) seems to break the linker's ability to link to precompiled .u
files * On some platforms, the first time you run UI it hangs for a while,
stopping and restarting seems to fix the issue.
