  6. <B>June 27, 2009: GCC4TI v0.96 Beta 10, ld-tigcc v1.09, Library v2.72, IDE v2.96</B>
  7. <UL>
  8. <LI>Bugfix: IDEs: add more instructions to the default lists used for syntax coloring.</LI>
  9. <LI>Added: import most of the TI-68k Developer Utilities' "pctools" (formerly TIGCC Tools
  10. Suite) where they belong.</LI>
  11. <LI>Added: documentation: merged several long-standing contributions.</LI>
  12. <LI>Updated: pstarter: removed the essentially unused shrnklib support; optimized the
  13. ttunpack-fast code by applying the same calling convention changes as those applied in the
  14. ttunpack code (saves about 34 bytes, i.e. > 2%).</LI>
  15. <LI>Improved: tprbuilder: return a nonzero exit code if a command run by tprbuilder returned
  16. a nonzero exit code.</LI>
  17. <LI>Bugfix: examples: fix an example whose build has failed since an untested modification
  18. performed in 2005...</LI>
  19. <LI>Added: examples: scripts to check buildability (with tprbuilder) of the examples.</LI>
  20. <LI>Bugfix: gcc: fix a 64-bit compatibility problem in the AMS float support (patch applied on
  21. top of GCC), which triggered harmless warnings in the generated assembly code.</LI>
  22. <LI>Greatly improved: build scripts ("canadian cross"-compilation support, more traces, better
  23. portability, improved packaging, etc.). Most improvements were developed by Lionel Debroux and
  24. Patrick Pélissier.</LI>
  25. <LI>Bugfix: tigcc: fix the build of the Custom DLL example by adding "-n" when invoking ld-tigcc
  26. to generate the decompressor+launcher.</LI>
  27. <LI>Bugfix: examples: rename a number of examples to avoid on-calc name clashes.</LI>
  28. <LI>Updated: a number of size optimizations in TIGCCLIB, one of which touches the very commonly
  29. used SAVE_SCREEN startup code. Most optimizations were developed by Martial Demolins.</LI>
  30. <LI>Updated: history files and READMEs.</LI>
  31. </UL>

  41. <LI>Bugfix: documentation: various tweaks and fixes.</LI>
  42. <LI>Bugfix: include & library: various tweaks and fixes.</LI>
  43. <LI>Added: ld-tigcc: integrate PuCrunch compression, add --pack switch.</LI>
  44. <LI>Added: ld-tigcc: implement --output-data-var switch (allows specifying the on-computer
  45. file name for the data variable).</LI>
  46. <LI>Added: ld-tigcc: better handling of on-calc variable names.</LI>
  47. <LI>Bugfix: ld-tigcc: ignore "relative reloc to symbol in different section" error in the
  48. ".deleted" section. This fixes --remove-unused with debugging information and -freg-relative-an.</LI>
  49. <LI>Bugfix: ld-tigcc: seek back to the end after FlashOS relocation so the dummy signature ends
  50. up at the end and not the place of the last relocation in the standalone version.</LI>
  51. <LI>Updated: documentation tools: replace Delphi DumpSections with equivalent shell script,
  52. Port ConvertTexi from Delphi to C++ with Qt 4.</LI>
  53. <LI>Bugfix: ld-tigcc: fix "relative reloc at `0xnnn' to `foo' in different section" errors

  58. <LI>Added: tigcclib: Flash OS library (flashos.a).</LI>

  60. support 64-bit integers anyway).</LI>
  61. <LI>Added: ld-tigcc: add implementation and documentation of special __ld_bss_even_end
  62. symbol.</LI>
  63. <LI>Updated: Delphi IDE: restore VTI support <B>in addition to</B> TIEmu support, as

  244. <LI>Updated: The IDE and <CODE>tigcc</CODE> now include the necessary patches automatically.</LI>
  245. <LI>Bugfix: GCC now works around the uninitialized data bug if the <B>'-mmlink'</B> switch is not used. This makes programs larger, but it is possible not to initialize data and still compile the program correctly until the bug is fixed.</LI>
  246. <LI>Added: The compiler now accepts the switches <B>'-mpcrel'</B>, <B>'-mlong'</B>, <B>'-mno-tios'</B>, and <B>'-mmlink'</B>.</LI>
  247. <LI>Updated: <CODE>tigcc</CODE> now accepts the <B>'-bsr'</B> switch for using bsr code where possible, the <B>'-pack'</B> switch for compression, and <B>'v'</B> as well as <B>'-v0'</B>.</LI>
  248. <LI>Updated: Made some additions and fixes in the IDE and the library.</LI>
  249. <LI>Updated: Changed the directory structure again, since the previous one didn't really make sense any more.</LI>
