More bugs fixed --> another new alpha GPC on agnes

Sat, 8 Feb 1997 05:07:19 +0100 (MET)


Hello again,

in case you downloaded gpc-2.0-970206.diff.gz - it is already obsolete
because I went on and fixed the following bugs:

  * Handle `absolute' variables in "declaring statements".
    (GNU extension: `Var' declarations in the function body.)

  * String schema types now survive transport through a GPI file -
    even without specified length.

  * Now you can take the address of a function with `&' or `@', i.e.,
    you can actually use pointers to functions.

  * When a Unit (or Module - not a Program!) imported an object from
    another Unit, the methods did not survive the transport through the
    GPI file.  Now they do.

A new diff against gpc-2.0 is on agnes,

  ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/alpha/gpc-2.0-970207.diff.gz

Sorry for the inconsistency in GPC ;-) but I promise that I will not
upload the next diff tomorrow because I won't have time :-( to work on
GPC for the next days.

It is getting more and more stable ... (:
