|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | | New concepts:
-------------
o Automap
o Implicit lambda.
o global::
Added new keyword global to be able to access identifiers on the
top level of the compilation unit using global::foo. (Deactivated
in 7.2 compatibility mode, of course.)
|
| 3dbeca | 2002-09-16 | Johan Sundström | | It's now possible to use e.g: global::this_program.
|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | |
Added an optional level argument to this_object(). *FIXME: Do we
really want this documented?*
|
| 3dbeca | 2002-09-16 | Johan Sundström | |
o global.
All top level modules (and other identifiers in that scope) can now
also be accessed with a "global." prefix. This is useful in cases where
local identifiers overshadow the top level, for instance in the Image
module, where the Image.Image class would occasionally block your view.
|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | |
o this
Added a magic identifier "this" that can be used instead of
this_object(). Like this_program, it only exists when there's no
other identifier with that name. The object of a surrounding class
can be adressed with Foo::this.
o Local
o Iterators (Mapping.pmod Multiset.pmod)
o for(X; Y; Z)
o enum reserved
o enum and typedef have implicit local binding
o ::_indices ::_values
|
| 3dbeca | 2002-09-16 | Johan Sundström | | o access mechanism for named scopes
|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | | Include the names of the surrounding classes themselves in the lookup for
Foo::, to make it possible to adress hidden variables in the scopes of
surrounding classes, e.g:
class X {
int i;
void create (int i) {X::i = i;}
}
|
| 3dbeca | 2002-09-16 | Johan Sundström | |
|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | | Since this change is mostly but not completely compatible with the earlier
lookup rule, it's disabled in 7.2 compatibility mode.

| cd683a | 2001-07-27 | Johan Sundström | | Optimizations:
--------------
|
| 6bf19a | 2002-09-15 | Peter Bortas | | o Improvement and bug tickets closed: 1499
Compatibility changes:
----------------------
Bugfixes and API-fixes that break compatibility. The old behaviour is
emulated in the compatibility layer that is activated by adding the
preprocessor directive "#pike 7.2" to your program or by precifying
the "-V7.2" argument to the pike executable.
o Protocols.LDAP.client
The return code from all methods was changed to follow Pike's
logic better. 0 is now a failure. The old behaviour is emulated in
compatibility layer
o dirname
Now correctly returns a directory instead of just stripping the
part after nearest directory seprator.
o LR
LR has been moved to Parser.LR and the API has been chnged.
FIXME: More about this?
Bugs fixed:
-----------
o Reworked trampolines to cause less circular references. (solves 1937)
