Below are not the release notes of EiffelStudio. It is the change log of EiffelStudio intermediate releases and the most important changes are highlighted in green or in red (for breaking changes). The release notes of EiffelStudio can be found at the following URL. You can also download the latest revision here. Information about other version can be found under Category:Releases.

EiffelStudio 6.7.x Releases

6.7.x

Placeholder for new stuff since last intermediate release.

New features

  • compiler: New tracing facility in Eiffel code. Currently tracing is done at the runtime level by writing some text in the standard output. This new tracing facility let you execute some user defined Eiffel code at entry and exit of all routine calls. That way you can better track what is going on without endless search in the output.

Improvements

Feature removed

Bug fixes

  • Fixed eweasel test#ccomp085. Now the compiler ensures that if you have a C external with a specific includes order, it will be respected at compile time.
  • Fixed eweasel test#exec326. Now the compiler properly generates the REAL_32 values for {REAL_32}.min_value and {REAL_32}.max_value.
  • Fixed eweasel test#valid243, test#svalid028, test#svalid029, test#tuple004, test#freez032 and test#multicon058. The issue was that when we performed the type checking of inherited routines using prefix/infix we were not using the new name of the prefix/infix operator but still the old one. Thus if it was renamed it would cause a spurious compilation error instead of accepting the code.
  • Fixed eweasel test#multicon056 which prevented usage of objectless call on formal generic parameter using multiconstraints.

User changes

  • base: Made {ARRAY}.make obsolete. Now one has to use `make_empty' or `make_filled'.

Developer changes

6.7.8.3946 (July 20th 2010)

New features

  • compiler: Added support for gcc on Windows 64-bit, thus removing the need for Microsoft Visual Studio for most type of projects.

Improvements

  • store: Prevent C storable to block all threads while waiting from data to be read in retrieved. Now we would wait for the storable type first before blocking all the other runtime threads. This fixes bug#16859.
