This information is available through the + sb-introspect contrib. + * new feature: users may subclass SEQUENCE, and have instances of + these classes interoperate with standard Common Lisp functions if + a number of methods are defined. (This feature is experimental + and the interface subject to change based on feedback from SBCL + users and the general community) * improvement: sb-sprof traces call stacks to an arbitrary depth on x86/x86-64, rather than the previous fixed depth of 8 + * improvement: another pthread back-end of mutex "pthread-futex". * bug fix: non-ascii command-line arguments are processed correctly (thanks to Yaroslav Kavenchuk) - * bug fix: TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL (and function end breakpoints) - work on Windows. * bug fix: non-required arguments were not passed correctly when a method defined using DEFMETHOD was called from a mop-generated method using CALL-NEXT-METHOD (reported by Pascal Costanza) + * bug fix: recursion is now permitted in accessors through + SLOT-UNBOUND. (reported by Pascal Costanza) * bug fix: an error was signaled at startup if the HOME environment variable was defined, but had an empty value (reported by Peter Van Eynde) + * bug fix: non ordinary lambda-list keyword in ordinary lambda lists + signal a PROGRAM-ERROR, not a BUG. + * bug fix: SB-POSIX:READDIR works when built with large file support. + * bug fix: ENOUGH-NAMESTRING works relative to #p"/" as well. (thanks + to Marco Monteiro) + * enhancement: DESTRUCTURING-BIND lambda-list uses &BODY instead of &REST + for better automatic indentation support. (thanks to Matt Pillsbury) + * optimization: loading generic functions no longer takes O(n^2) time, + proportional to the amount of methods in the generic function + (reported by Todd Sabin and Jeremy Brown) * optimization: the FIND and POSITION family of sequence functions are significantly faster on arrays whose element types have been declared. + * improvements to the Windows port: + ** Intermittent heap corruption problems have been fixed. (thanks + to Alastair Bridgewater) + ** TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL (and function end breakpoints) + work on Windows. + ** Lisp is able to unwind foreing exception frames from alien + callbacks. (thanks to Alastair Bridgewater) changes in sbcl-1.0 relative to sbcl-0.9.18: * improvement: experimental support for threading on FreeBSD/x86.
