ttai_typedconstbuilder.emit_string_offset() so it can also be used outside
the context of parsing a Pascal-level typed constant
git-svn-id: branches/hlcgllvm@30111 -
parsing from nllvmtcon to aasmcnst
o added automatic insertion of padding bytes when fields need to be aligned,
so that once ncgvmt (and hopefully ncgrtti) are converted to the typed
constant builder class, we can get rid of all the explicit alignment
directives (only supported for non-bitpacked records for now)

o blocks are implemented as a variation of procedure variables
o declaration of a block variable: "test: procedure(c: char) is block;"
(C equivalent: (void)(^test)(char c) )
o the compiler automatically converts procedures/functions whose address
is passed to a block parameter or assigned to a block variable into
a "block". This consists of
1) generating a block descriptor (containing the size of the "block
literal" (see below) and the signature of the invocation function
encoded as an Objective-C selector)
2) generating a wrapper function around the original funcion (with C
calling convention), that has an extra first hidden parameter
(marked as vo_is_parentfp in the compiler) whose type is a pointer
to the describing "block literal"
3) generating the "block literal", which contains a pointer to an
external variable indicating whether this block captures context or
not, some flags (see compiler/blockutl.get_block_literal_flags for
info), a pointer to the wrapper function and a pointer to the
descriptor. In the future, it will also contain captured variables.
o right now, only global procedures/functions can be converted to blocks
(because they don't require state capturing). The next steps are (Object
Pascal) methods (not Objective-C methods, because Objective-C method
procvars don't exist) and finally nested functions
o on Mac OS X, the functionality will only work on Mac OS X 10.7 and later,
because we have to use the so-called "ABI.2010.3.16" to ensure that
our blocks aren't called as variadic functions by the runtime (which
came out after the Mac OS X 10.6 release)
o while the currently implemented functionality does not require any
library support at all, there's no use enabling it on other platforms
because unless it has been confirmed to work with a blocks runtime,
there's no point in using blocks (they're just somewhat bulky procvars
right now). Enabling it on other platforms (in combination with the
GNUStep Objective-C run time), should simply be a matter of adding
the right {$linklib xxx} statement to rtl/inc/blockrtl.pp file, adding
that file to Makefile.fpc for that platform and adding that platform
to the compiler/systems.systems_blocks_supported set

to free up space for more ait_* types in taitype (can't have
more than 32 because they have to fit in a small set)
o factored out writing of floating point numbers as an array of
byte in the external assemblers
git-svn-id: branches/hlcgllvm@28105 -
will be used to load them afterwards instead of always per byte so we
can use that loadsize as the array element type in llvm declarations
(-> less casting required)

defcmp.pas:
+ add new function "def_is_related" which combines the "is_related" overloads of "tobjectdef", "trecorddef" and "tstringdef" (it returns "false" for other def types which is what "tdef.is_related" did)
* compare_defs_ext & compatible_childmethod_resultdef: change call from "x.is_related" to "def_is_related(x,...)"
symtype.pas, tdef:
- remove "is_related" method
symdef.pas:
- remove "is_related" in "tobjectdef", "trecorddef" and "tstringdef"
* tobjectdef.needs_inittable: for checking whether a Corba interface somehow inherits from a IInterface don't use "is_related" anymore (we want to avoid the dependency after all), but mimic the necessary functionality of "def_is_related"
htypechk.pas, nadd.pas, ncal.pas, ncnv.pas, ngtcon.pas, nld.pas, optvirt.pas, pdecobj.pas, pdecvar.pas, pexpr.pas, pgenutil.pas:
* change call from "x.is_related" to "def_is_related(x,...)"

constants on Darwin, because its linker uses global symbols as delimiters
of subsections for dead code stripping. This was previously solved by
never making any ansistring constants smart linkable, which is now
solved
git-svn-id: trunk@21328 -
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
