(thanks to Daniel Janus; launchpad bug #453080) + * new feature: SB-INTROSPECT:WHO-SPECIALIZES-DIRECTLY to get a list of + definitions for methods specializing on the passed class itself. + * new feature: SB-INTROSPECT:WHO-SPECIALIZES-GENERALLY to get a list of + definitions for methods specializing on the passed class itself, or on + subclasses of it. + * fixes and improvements related to Unicode and external formats: + ** the Unicode character database has been upgraded to the + Unicode 5.2 standard, giving names and properties to a number of new + characters, and providing a few extra characters with case + transformations. + ** improvement: restarts for providing replacement input/output on coding + errors for fd-stream external formats. + ** improvement: where : is a keyword corresponding to an + external format the system supports, it is now possible to specify + (: :replacement ) as an external format which will + automatically substitute on encoding or decoding errors for + streams and for STRING-TO-OCTETS and its inverse. + ** minor incompatible change: the utf-8 external format now correctly + refuses to encode Lisp characters in the surrogate range (char-codes + between #xd800 and #xdfff). + ** fix a typo preventing conversion of strings into octet vectors + in the latin-2 encoding. (reported by Attila Lendvai; launchpad bug + #471689) + ** fix a bug in the octet multibyte handling of decoding errors and the + USE-VALUE restart. (launchpad bug #314939) + ** fix the bug underlying the expected failure in the FORCE-END-OF-FILE + restart on fd-stream decoding errors. + ** fix a bug in the ATTEMPT-RESYNC fd-stream decoding restart when the + error is near the end of file. + ** fix a double-error case in unibyte octet conversions, when the first + use of USE-VALUE is ignored. + ** fix bugs in handling of undefined code points in unibyte encodings. + * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT:ALLOCATION-INFORMATION also reports if the + object is allocated in a boxed region of dynamic space. + * bug fix: uses of slot accessors on specialized method parameters within + the bodies of SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS methods no longer triggers a type + error while finalizing the class. This fix may cause classes with slot + accessors to be finalized later than previously. (reported by Lars Rune + Nøstdal; launchpad bug #473699) + * bug fix: restore buildability on the MIPS platform. (regression from + 1.0.30.38, reported by Samium Gromoff) + * bug fix: inspecting closures is less likely to fail with a type error. + * bug fix: no timer starvation when setting the system clock back. + (launchpad bug #460283) + * bug fix: WITH-STANDARD-IO-SYNTAX now binds *PRINT-PPRINT-DISPATCH* to the + standard pprint dispatch table as specified by CLHS. + * bug fix: give CLISP a hint about a type declaration to enable it to build + the cross-compiler without warnings. (thanks to Josh Elasser; launchpad + bug #396597) + +changes in sbcl-1.0.32 relative to sbcl-1.0.31: + * optimization: faster FIND and POSITION on strings of unknown element type + in high SPEED policies. (thanks to Karol Swietlicki) + * optimization: faster CONCATENATE 'STRING in low SPEED policies (reported + by David Vázquez) + * improvement: better error signalling for bogus parameter specializer names + in DEFMETHOD forms (reported by Pluijzer) + * bug fix: DELETE-FILE once again works on logical pathnames (regression + since 1.0.30.49) + * bug fix: LOGICAL-PATHNAME signals a TYPE-ERROR if pathspec is specified + incorrectly. + * bug fix: redefinition of a class via DEFCLASS without :DEFAULT-INITARGS + removes previous default initargs (reported by Lars Rune Nøstdal and + Samium Gromoff) + * bug fix: correct WHO-CALLS information for inlined lambdas with complex + lambda-lists. (reported by Peter Seibel) * bug fix: SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE option :SAVE-RUNTIME-OPTIONS did not work correctly when starting from an executable core without saved runtime options (reported by Faré Rideau, thanks to Zach Beane) * bug fix: (SETF SLOT-VALUE) signalled a warning which should have been an optimization note instead. (reported by Martin Cracauer) + * bug fix: WITH-SLOTS did not work with THE forms. (thanks to David Tolpin) + * bug fix: Have RUN-PROGRAM with :INPUT T only run the subprocess in a + new process group if it doesn't need to share stdin with the sbcl + process. (thanks to Leslie Polzer) + * bug fix: SATISFIES could be misoptimized to refer to a local function. + (reported by Stanislaw Halik) changes in sbcl-1.0.31 relative to sbcl-1.0.30: * improvement: stack allocation is should now be possible in all nested
