+changes in sbcl-0.8.15 relative to sbcl-0.8.14:
+ * incompatible change: SB-INT:*BEFORE-SAVE-INITIALIZATIONS* and
+ SB-INT:*AFTER-SAVE-INITIALIZATIONS* have been renamed
+ SB-EXT:*SAVE-HOOKS* and SB-EXT:*INIT-HOOKS*, and are now
+ part of the supported interface.
+ * new feature: saving cores with foreign code loaded is now
+ supported on x86/FreeBSD, x86/Linux, and sparc/SunOS. (based
+ on Timothy Moore's work for CMUCL)
+ * bug fix: FOR ... ON ... -clauses in LOOP now work on dotted lists
+ (thanks for Teemu Kalvas)
+ * bug fix: in FORMAT ~^ inside ~:{ now correctly steps to the next
+ case instead of terminating the iteration (thanks for Julian Squires,
+ Sean Champ and Raymond Toy)
+ * bug fix: incorrect expansion of defgeneric that caused
+ a style warning. (thanks for Zach Beane)
+ * on x86 compiler supports stack allocation of results of LIST and
+ LIST*, bound to variables, declared DYNAMIC-EXTENT. (based on
+ CMUCL implementation by Gerd Moellmann)
+
changes in sbcl-0.8.14 relative to sbcl-0.8.13:
+ * incompatible change: the internal functions
+ SB-KERNEL:32BIT-LOGICAL-FOO, intended for providing efficient
+ logical operations on (UNSIGNED-BYTE 32) values, have been renamed
+ to SB-KERNEL:WORD-LOGICAL-FOO. Modular arithmetic should be used
+ instead of the old functions.
* new feature: on platforms where "dladdr" is available foreign
function names now appear in backtraces. (based on Helmut Eller's
work for CMUCL)
- * documentation: networking interface SB-BSD-SOCKETS' documentation
- has been integrated into the user manual.
+ * documentation: documentation for SB-BSD-SOCKETS, SB-GRAY,
+ SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS, and SB-PROFILE have been integrated into the user
+ manual.
+ * documentation: ASDF manual is now distributed with SBCL.
+ * bug fix: SBCL can now load its contributed modules with REQUIRE
+ even if the system-provided entries have been removed from
+ ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*. Infinite recursion in REQUIRE is also
+ detected.
* bug fix: backtraces involving undefined functions or assembly
routines are more informative. (thanks to Brian Downing)
* bug fix: mutually referent alien structures now work correctly.
left shifts.
* bug fix: provide default methods for INPUT-STREAM-P and
OUTPUT-STREAM-P specialized on SB-GRAY:FUNDAMENTAL-STREAM.
+ * bug fix: improve the detection and resolution of MOP metacycles
+ (where effective method computation depends on the generic function
+ having its effective method computed). (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * bug fix: pass the right initargs to :BEFORE or :AFTER methods on
+ SHARED-INITIALIZE or INITIALIZE-INSTANCE in optimized
+ MAKE-INSTANCE constructors. (reported by Axel Schairer for cmucl)
+ * bug fix: pathnames with relative directory components can be
+ represented relative to default pathnames.
* optimization: in taking the GCD of bignums, reduce the two bignums
to approximately the same size (using Euclid's algorithm) before
applying the more sophisticated binary GCD. (thanks to Juho
Snellman)
+ * optimization: COUNT on bitvectors now operates word-at-a-time.
+ * optimization: ASH with a positive, but not necessarily constant,
+ (leftwards) shift, when in a modular context, is compiled to a
+ hardware shift.
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** FORMAT variable parameters ("~V<char>") are defaulted properly
+ if the corresponding argument is NIL.
+ ** FORMAT directives accepting a minpad parameter treat negative
+ values as 0.
+ ** literal commas as character parameters to FORMAT directives are
+ parsed correctly.
+ ** literal spaces directly after ~<Newline> directives within a
+ format-logical-block (~:< ~@:>) do not induce :FILL-style
+ conditional newlines.
+ ** PRINT-UNREADABLE-OBJECT inserts spaces as specified (and only
+ as specified: it no longer includes conditional newlines).
+ ** PRINC-TO-STRING binds *PRINT-READABLY* to NIL (as well as
+ *PRINT-ESCAPE*).
+ ** PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK signals a TYPE-ERROR if its :PREFIX or
+ :PER-LINE-PREFIX argument does not evaluate to a string.
