+ use {$bitpacking on/+} to change the meaning of "packed"
into "bitpacked" for arrays. This is the default for MacPas.
You can also define individual arrays as "bitpacked", but
this is not encouraged since this keyword is not known by
other compilers and therefore makes your code unportable.
+ pack(unpackedarray,index,packedarray) to pack
length(packedarray) elements starting at
unpackedarray[index] into packedarray.
+ unpack(packedarray,unpackedarray,index) to unpack
packedarray into unpackedarray, with the first
element being stored at unpackedarray[index]
* todo:
* "open packed arrays" and rtti for packed arrays are not
yet supported
* gdb does not properly support bitpacked arrays
git-svn-id: trunk@4449 -
* use a linear cmp list instead of subtractions on ppc if low >=
low(smallint) and high <= high(word), because a compare does not
introduce any dependencies (and in those cases using subtractions
does not save any instructions or bytes either)
git-svn-id: trunk@3065 -
* change booleans in arraydef to set
* set option in arraydef to indicate a constant string so
a nicer type can be shown instead of array[0..x] of char
git-svn-id: trunk@3051 -
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
