EiffelStudio 6.8.x Releases

6.8.x

Placeholder for new stuff since last intermediate release.

New features

  • studio: Added support for OpenBSD 64-bit.

Improvements

  • build: Improved EiffelBuild support for void-safe Eiffel. Fixed code generation to use new syntax.

Feature removed

Bug fixes

  • compiler: Fixed eweasel test#exec301 to properly handle the TYPE [NONE] instance.
  • compiler: Fixed eweasel test#incr370 which would cause the compiler to crash during code generation if the last melt operation was done on the invariant of a class involving an object test local.

User changes

  • libraries: Changed routines whose arguments were of type STRING_GENERAL to now be READABLE_STRING_GENERAL. This lets you use IMMUTABLE_STRING instances in your code with EiffelVision2 and other Unicode ready libraries.
