and aliases for result and function name are added using absolutesym
* vs_hidden parameter for funcret passed in parameter
* vs_hidden fixes
* writenode changed to printnode and released from extdebug
* -vp option added to generate a tree.log with the nodetree
* nicer printnode for statements, callnode
* Moved pocall_internconst to po_internconst because it is not a
calling type at all and it conflicted when inlining of these small
functions was requested
* The whilen and repeatn are now completely unified into whilerepeatn. This
allows the state tracker to change while nodes automatically into
repeat nodes.
* Resulttypepass improvements to the notn. 'not not a' is optimized away and
'not(a>b)' is optimized into 'a<=b'.
* Resulttypepass improvements to the whilerepeatn. 'while not a' is optimized
by removing the notn and later switchting the true and falselabels. The
same is done with 'repeat until not a'.
* foreach gets extra argument for passing local data to the
iterator function
* -CR checks also class typecasts at runtime by changing them
into as
* fixed compiler to cycle with the -CR option
* fixed stabs with elf writer, finally the global variables can
be watched
* removed a lot of routines from cga unit and replaced them by
calls to cgobj
* u32bit-s32bit updates for and,or,xor nodes. When one element is
u32bit then the other is typecasted also to u32bit without giving
a rangecheck warning/error.
* fixed pascal calling method with reversing also the high tree in
the parast, detected by tcalcst3 test
inlined from pexpr
* -an option that will write the secondpass nodes to the .s file, this
requires EXTDEBUG define to actually write the info
* fixed various internal errors and crashes due recent code changes
+ first parameter offset in stack now portable
* rename some constants
+ move some cpu stuff to other units
- remove unused constents
* fix stacksize for some targets
* fix generic size problems which depend now on EXTEND_SIZE constant
* LOC_CONSTANT added for better constant handling
* secondadd splitted in multiple routines
* location_force_reg added for loading a location to a register
of a specified size
* secondassignment parses now first the right and then the left node
(this is compatible with Kylix). This saves a lot of push/pop especially
with string operations
* adapted some routines to use the new cg methods
* register allocation is now handled by a class and is mostly processor
independent (+rgobj.pas and i386/rgcpu.pas)
* temp allocation is now handled by a class (+tgobj.pas, -i386\tgcpu.pas)
* some small improvements and fixes to the optimizer
* some register allocation fixes
* some fpuvaroffset fixes in the unary minus node
* push/popusedregisters is now called rg.save/restoreusedregisters and
(for i386) uses temps instead of push/pop's when using -Op3 (that code is
also better optimizable)
* fixed and optimized register saving/restoring for new/dispose nodes
* LOC_FPU locations now also require their "register" field to be set to
R_ST, not R_ST0 (the latter is used for LOC_CFPUREGISTER locations only)
- list field removed of the tnode class because it's not used currently
and can cause hard-to-find bugs
following changes:
+ load regvars in genentrycode/free them in genexitcode (cgai386)
* moved all regvar related code to new regvars unit
+ added pregvarinfo type to hcodegen
+ added regvarinfo field to tprocinfo (symdef/symdefh)
* deallocate the regvars of the caller in secondprocinline before
inlining the called procedure and reallocate them afterwards
* added undefined label detection in internal assembler, this prevents
a lot of ld crashes and wrong .o files
* .o files aren't written anymore if errors have occured
* inlining of assembler labels is now correct
+ the compiler uses now fldz and fld1 if possible
+ some fixes to floating point registers
+ some math. functions (arctan, ln, sin, cos, sqrt, sqr, pi) are now inlined
* .... ???
if a tree uses more than registers32 regs then
internalerror(10) is issued
+ EXTTEMPREGDEBUG will also give internalerror(10) if
a same register is freed twice (happens in several part
of current compiler like addn for strings and sets)
+ message handler can now take an explicit self
* typinfo fixed: sometimes the type names weren't written
* the type checking for pointer comparisations and subtraction
and are now more strict (was also buggy)
* small bug fix to link.pas to support compiling on another
drive
* probable bug in popt386 fixed: call/jmp => push/jmp
transformation didn't count correctly the jmp references
+ threadvar support
* warning if ln/sqrt gets an invalid constant argument
