Announcing ficl release 3.02
John Sadler
-- This is primarily a bug fix release.
-- There are extensive revisions to the OO docs on the website, and
enhancements to debug support words.
Details:
Fixed a bug in INCLUDED (fileaccess.fr) thanks to Emanuel Borsboom
(www.nuel.ca)
Fixed a bug in "environment?" - was ignoring the length of the
supplied string.
"my=[" detects object members (using ?object) and assumes all other
members leave class unchanged
Added "objectify" and "?object" for use by OO infrastructure
Ficl OO tutorial expanded and revised. Thanks to David McNab for his
demo and suggestions.
Consolidated context and pExtend pointers of FICL_SYSTEM - VM's
pExtend pointer
is initialized from the copy in FICL_SYSTEM upon VM creation. (Maybe
this isn't such a great idea -
please expect the default copy behavior to go away in the next
release).
Ficlwin character handling is more robust
SEE improvements - SEE (and consequently DEBUG) have improved source
listings
with instruction offsets
Corrected various bugs in docs.
Added ficl-ized version of JV Noble's Forth Primer
Ficlwin uses multi-system constructs (see ficlthread.c)
MEMORY-EXT environment variable removed (there is no such wordset)
