- {$intpromotion common_type} or -CIcommon_type switches to common type promotion.
- {$intpromotion native_integer} or -CIcommon_type switches to current behaviour.
- Default in tp mode is common_type, native_integer in other modes
- Compiler can cycle with -CIcommon_type
- Still needs checking on other architectures than i386
git-svn-id: trunk@8118 -
* varsets ({$packset x}) are now supported on big endian targets
* gdb now displays sets properly on big endian systems
* cleanup of generic set code (in, include/exclude, helpers), all
based on "bitpacked array[] of 0..1" now
* there are no helpers available yet to convert sets from the old to
the new format, because the set format will change again slightly
in the near future (so that e.g. a set of 24..31 will be stored in
1 byte), and creating two classes of set conversion helpers would
confuse things (i.e., it's not recommended to use trunk currently for
programs which load sets stored to disk by big endian programs compiled
by previous FPC versions)
* cross-endian compiling has been tested and still works, but one case
is not supported: compiling a compiler for a different endianess
using a starting compiler from before the current revision (so first
cycle natively, and then use the newly created compiler to create a
cross-compiler)

because on win64 the location of a function result can depend on its
size (so some chararrays had to be returned in registers and others
by reference, which means it's impossible to have a generic function
declaration which works in all cases) (mantis #8533)
* pad constant string assignments to chararrays with #0 up to the
length of the chararray for 2.0.x compatibility (fixes
tests/test/tarray3)

a target flag, since some kernels may be able to handle alignment
problems, and the alignment requirements may not be absolute (e.g. on
ppc64, only 8 byte values need alignment, and only to 4 byte boundaries)
-> linux/ppc64 has tf_requires_proper_alignment set in its target flags,
darwin/ppc64 hasn't
git-svn-id: trunk@6745 -
* fixed downsizing the precision of floating point values
* floating point constants are now treated using only the minimal
precision required (e.g. 2.0 is now a single, 1.1 extended etc)
(Delphi compatible)
git-svn-id: trunk@5927 -
* symtables based on TFPHashObjectList and TFPObjectList
* rename torddef.typ to torddef.ordtype
* rename tfloatdef.typ to tfloatdef.floattype
* rename tdef.deftype to tdef.typ
* remove obsolete browser code, browcol is kept so the ide
can still be compiled
git-svn-id: trunk@5192 -
* turn off stackframe optimizations on x86 if get_frame is called
in the current routine, or if the address of a nested function
is taken in the current routine
+ test for the above
* this fixes the IDE when compiled with stackframe optimizations
on x86
