to the way the shortstring helpers for i386 are written, they are
still handled by the old code (reason: fpc_shortstr_compare returns
results in the flags instead of in eax and fpc_shortstr_concat
has wierd parameter conventions). The compilerproc stuff should work
fine with the generic implementations though.
* removed some nested comments warnings
optimizer bugs with int64 calculations (because of the carry flag usage)
* fixed another bug which caused wrong optimizations with complex
array expressions
custom resulttype
* compilerproc typeconversions now set the resulttype from the type
conversion for the generated call node, because the resulttype of
of the compilerproc helper isn't always exact (e.g. the ones that
return shortstrings, actually return a shortstring[x], where x is
specified by the typeconversion node)
* ti386callnode.pass_2 now always uses resulttype instead of
procsym.definition.rettype (so the custom resulttype, if any, is
always used). Note that this "rettype" stuff is only for use with
compilerprocs.
- removed all code from the compiler which has been replaced by
compilerproc implementations (using {$ifdef hascompilerproc} is not
necessary in the compiler)
+ smallint range defined
+ Dec procedure example for function overloading precised (is defined
replaced by 'could' since Dec is inline in compiler now).
+ Export with function overloading will work correctly (name is still
mangled) - it seems only cdecl does not mangle the name.
* fixed problem in my last commit : cdecl is for C calling convention, not
for GCC (since on BeOS the calling convention is stdcall anyways)...
+ IndexChar / IndexDWord / IndexWord had incorrect formatting
+ Ofs() and Seg() had incorrect formatting - Ptr() : DoMapping no longer exists
fpc_<stringtype>_longint
* fixed small bug in handle_read_write that caused wrong warnigns about
uninitialized vars with read(ln)
+ handle_val (processor independent val() handling)
resulttype and first pass)
* made handling of read(ln)/write(ln) processor independent
* moved processor independent handling for str and reset/rewrite-typed
from firstpass to resulttype pass
* changed names of helpers in text.inc to be generic for use as
compilerprocs + added "iocheck" directive for most of them
* reading of ordinals is done by procedures instead of functions
because otherwise FPC_IOCHECK overwrote the result before it could
be stored elsewhere (range checking still works)
* compilerprocs can now be used in the system unit before they are
implemented
* added note to errore.msg that booleans can't be read using read/readln
+ added missing modifiers explanation: inline, pascal,safecall
and interrupt
+ replaced \linux by \linux and \unix compatible operating systems.
- real type will be define in programmer's manual
