o support for the new codepage-aware ansistrings in the jvm branch
o empty ansistrings are now always represented by a nil pointer rather than
by an empty string, because an empty string also has a code page which
can confuse code (although this will make ansistrings harder to use
in Java code)
o more string helpers code shared between the general and jvm rtl
o support for indexbyte/word in the jvm rtl (warning: first parameter
is an open array rather than an untyped parameter there, so
indexchar(pcharvar^,10,0) will be equivalent to
indexchar[pcharvar^],10,0) there, which is different from what is
intended; changing it to an untyped parameter wouldn't help though)
o default() support is not yet complete
o calling fpcres is currently broken due to limitations in
sysutils.executeprocess() regarding handling unix quoting and
the compiler using the same command lines for scripts and directly
calling external programs
o compiling the Java compiler currently requires adding ALLOW_WARNINGS=1
to the make command line
git-svn-id: branches/jvmbackend@20887 -
0, just like gcc/clang. This results in more efficient code on
non-fragile ABI platforms and removes a dependency of the name
of the isa field in header translations
git-svn-id: trunk@20623 -
o allows converting indices to the proper type if required (such as
variant, mantis #20873)
o do not create temporary defs for this type checking anymore if not
necessary
o makes sure that errors are thrown in case of conversions considered
as invalid by the compiler rather than that wrong code is silently
generated (such as in mantis #20873 before this change)
git-svn-id: trunk@20108 -
those are also supported by the Java language (intftype.class) and required

- don't convert string constants to rawbytestring. if string constant already has a codepage - preserve it or convert to ansistring codepage (delphi compatible)
- don't perform string conversion from ansistring to strings with explicitly set codepage (by directive or by compiler switch) and vice versa (delphi compatible)

git-svn-id: trunk@19510 -
o every porocedural variable type is represented by a class with one
public "invoke" method whose signature matches the signature of the
procvar
o internally, dispatching happens via java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke().
WARNING: while this allows calling private/protected or other methods
that are normally not accessible from another context, a security
manger can override this. If such a security manager is installed,
most procvars will cause security exceptions
o such dispatching also requires that all arguments are wrapped, but
that's done in the compiler-generated body of the invoke method,
so that procvars can also be called conveniently from Java code
o typecasting between a procedure of object and tmethod is supported,
as well as Delphi-style replacing of only the method pointer via
@procvar1=@procvar2.
o nested procvars are not yet supported, but most of the basic
infrastructure for them is already present
* all units/programs now get an internal __FPC_JVM_Module_Class_Alias$
type when compiled for the JVM target, which is an "external" class
that maps to the unit name. This is required to look up the
JLRMethod instances for regular functions/procedures
+ new tabstractprocdef.copyas() method that allows to create a procvar
from a procdef and vice versa
git-svn-id: branches/jvmbackend@18690 -
o sets of enums are handled as JUEnumSet instances, others as JUBitSet
derivatives (both smallsets and varsets, to make interoperability with
Java easier)
o special handling of set constants: these have to be constructed at run
time. In case of constants in the code, create an internal constsym to
represent them. These and regular constsyms are then aliased by an
another internal staticvarsym that is used to initialise them in the
unit initialisation code.
o until they are constructed at run time, set constants are encoded as
constant Java strings (with the characters containing the set bits)
o hlcgobj conversion of tcginnode.pass_generate_code() for the genjumps
part (that's the only part of the generic code that's used by the JVM
target)
o as far as explicit typecasting support is concerned, currently the
following ones are supported (both from/to setdefs): ordinal types,
enums, any other set types (whose size is the same on native targets)
o enum setdefs also emit signatures
o overloading routines for different ordinal set types, or for different
enum set types, is not supported on the JVM target

HWND = type Handle;
rec = record
hWnd: HWND;
end;)
- disable check in factor_read_id which was made for object that only static fields can be accessed as TObjectType.FieldName outside the object because it makes SizeOf(TObjectType.FieldName) imposible and since the same method was extended to handle records it also breaks a52 package compilation
- rename tcallcandidates.collect_overloads_in_class to tcallcandidates.collect_overloads_in_struct and addapt the code to handle overloads in records too

+ support for nested procedural variables:
o activate using {$modeswitch nestedprocvars} (compatible with all
regular syntax modes, enabled by default for MacPas mode)
o activating this mode switch changes the way the frame pointer is
passed to nested routines into the same way that Delphi uses (always
passed via the stack, and if necessary removed from the stack by
the caller) -- Todo: possibly also allow using this parameter
passing convention without enabling nested procvars, maybe even
by default in Delphi mode, see mantis #9432
o both global and nested routines can be passed to/assigned to a
nested procvar (and called via them). Note that converting global
*procvars* to nested procvars is intentionally not supported, so
that this functionality can also be implemented via compile-time
generated trampolines if necessary (e.g. for LLVM or CIL backends
as long as they don't support the aforementioned parameter passing
convention)
o a nested procvar can both be declared using a Mac/ISO Pascal style
"inline" type declaration as a parameter type, or as a stand-alone
type (in the latter case, add "is nested" at the end in analogy to
"of object" for method pointers -- note that using variables of
such a type is dangerous, because if you call them once the enclosing
stack frame no longer exists on the stack, the results are
undefined; this is however allowed for Metaware Pascal compatibility)

* mark objcclasses that are declared in the implementation section of a

* enabled all obj-c tests for the newly supported platforms
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13763 -
starting with a previous 2.3.1 or compiler built from the objc branch
+ added basic objcprotocol support (only for external protocols
currently)
o use in type declaration: "type xp = objcprotocol ... end;"
o when defining a root class that implements it:
"type yc = objcclass(xp) ... end" (note: no support yet
for something like "objcclass(id,xp)" or so)
o when defining a non-root class that implements a protocol:
"type zc = objcclass(nsobject,xp) ... end"
o includes support for "required" and "optional" sections
o no support yet for the objcprotocol(<protocol>) expression
that enables getting a class instance representing the
protocol (e.g., for use with "conformsToProtocol:")
o message names have to specified in protocol declarations,
but if an objcclass implements a protocol, the message names do
not have to be repeated (but if they are, they have to match;
the same goes when overriding inherited methods)
+ allow specifying the external name of Objective-C classes and
protocols, since classes and protocols can have the same name
(and you cannot use the same Pascal identifier in such caseq)
+ added NSObject protocol, and make the NSObject class use it
+ added missing NSObject class methods that have the same name
as instance methods (added "class" name prefix to avoid clashes)
* fixed several cases where the compiler did not treat Objective-C
classes/protocols the same as Object Pascal classes/interfaces
(a.o., forward declarations, alignment, regvars, several type
conversions, ...)
* allow "override" directive in objcclass declarations, and print
a hint if it's forgotten in an external declaration (because it
doesn't really matter there, and may make automated header
conversion harder than necessary) and an error if will be used in
a non-external declaration (because it is not possible to start
a new vmt entry-tree in Objective-C, you can only override parent
methods)

+ initial implementation of whole-program optimisation framework
+ implementation of whole-program devirtualisation
o use:
a) generate whole-program optimisation information (no need

fpc -OWdevirtcalls -FWmyprog.wpo myprog
b) use it to optimise the program

(the -B is not required, but only sources recompiled during

you can even rebuild the rtl devirtualised for a particular
program; and these options can obviously also be used
together with regular optimisation switches)

+ symbol liveness wpo information extracted from smartlinked programs
(-OW/-Owsymbolliveness)
+ use symbol liveness information to improve devirtualisation (don't
consider classes created in code that has been dead code stripped).
This requires at least two passes of using wpo (first uses dead code
info to locate classes that are constructed only in dead code,
second pass uses this info to potentially further devirtualise).
I.e.:
1) generate initial liveness and devirtualisation feedback
fpc -FWtt.wpo -OWall tt.pp -Xs- -CX -XX
2) use previously generated feedback, and regenerate new feedback
based on this (i.e., disregard classes created in dead code)
fpc -FWtt-1.wpo -OWall -Fwtt.wo -Owall tt.pp -Xs- -CX -XX
3) use the newly generated feedback (in theory, it is possible
that even more opportunities pop up afterwards; you can
continue until the program does not get smaller anymore)
fpc -Fwtt-1.wpo -Owall tt.pp -CX -XX
* changed all message() to cgmessage() calls so the set codegenerror
* changed static fsectionhandlers field to a regular field called
fwpocomponents
* changed registration of wpocomponents: no longer happens in the
initialization section of their unit, but in the InitWpo routine
(which has been moved from the woinfo to the wpo unit). This way
you can register different classes based on the target/parameters.
+ added static method to twpocomponentbase for checking whether
the command line parameters don't conflict with the requested
optimisations (e.g. generating liveness info requires that
smartlinking is turned on)
+ added static method to twpocomponentbase to request the
section name
