I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20081005.tgz
In the Seed7 programming language new statements and operators
can be declared easily. Types are first class objects and therefore
templates/generics need no special syntax. Object orientation is
used when it brings advantages and not in places when other
solutions are more obvious.
Seed7 is covered by the GPL (and LGPL for the Seed7 runtime library).
Changelog:
- The chapter about primitive actions in the manual was improved.
- The definition of STD_NULL in the seed7_05.s7i library was
improved to support read and write operations with STD_NULL.
- The bas7.sd7 (basic interpreter) example program was improved to
support file numbers outside the range of 1 to 256 and to convert
arrays to images when necessary.
- The compiler (comp.sd7) was improved to support local interface
declarations and dynamic functions which refer to constant values.
- Several improvements were done in the compiler to support
generating C programs acceptable for the cl compiler from msvc and
for the bcc32 compiler.
- A check for double function pointers was added to the function
get_primact() in the file actutl.c .
- A boss mode was added to the lander.sd7 and sudoku7.sd7 example
programs.
- The file common.h was improved to introduce the types int64type,
uint64type, int32type, uint32type, int16type, uint16type, int8type
and uint8type.
- The functions bigULConv and bigLOrd were renamed to bigFromUInt64
and bigToInt64 respectively.
- The function bigCLit() was improved to avoid C code that the cl C
compiler from msvc miscompiles to the wrong machine code.
- The functions setupFloat and _matherr and the makefile mk_bcc32.mak
were added to support compilation with bcc32.
- The feature test macro HAS_LONGTYPE_64 was renamed to HAS_INT64TYPE
in various files.
- The feature macros INHIBIT_C_WARNINGS and NO_EMPTY_STRUCTS were
added or improved.
- The makefiles mk_mingw.mak, mk_msvc.mak and mk_nmake.mak were
changed to create and use the file setpaths.c instead of several
other files.

How can you tell, that I appear in scene two (2) of this movie?
AFAIK I never released a picture of me in the internet.
Or did you see some discussion entries of a programming group in the
movie?

Can it be, that you exaggerate a little bit.
I can hardly believe that Obama wants to become US president by
criticising
my program designs? Doesn't he know that such criticism can have a
negative influence on his popularity?
On the contrary I think you missunderstood something and my program
designs will turn the world into a better one...
Obama just told me that he agrees with me and that he wants me as
official programming consultant of the white house.
Since I am from austria (no kangaroos here) I have chances to later
become governor of some US state.
BTW: US != world
Please avoid arguing as if the US are the only country in the world.
> Also about people who can not do math
I will not discuss such issues here.
If you want to discuss really about programming and Seed7 you are
always welcome.
Are there suggestions what features a programming language should
have?

I was always under the impression that the sole required feature is that it
allows the programmer to do "something". I'm pretty sure Seed7 falls squarely
inside that definition.

I was encouraged by the recent on of directory manipulation language feature
of SEED7. The C language statements in those respects are not too well
documented in my experience, which is in the past by now.
A definitive book The Essential Distributed Objects Survival Guide, by
Orfali, Harkey and Edwards 1996 describes the move to semantic techniques
per mappings, timing, lifecycles, buses, containers and data integration.
If I was an application designer I would implement those. But they can be
implemented in roundabout ways if you can control the environment, without
statements. A whip seems to do the trick.. Which his probably where the
selection of candidates for political office interacts with the egalitarian
influce of SEED7 designs and software system applications. Show some cheek
in your next cinematic appearance we'll be watching.
It seems that these ancient governments are really serious about maintaining
a world of dominance and submission, which will be unlikely to result from
current practices of the people in charge of the environments. Long Live
