Welcome to ORCA/C 2.2.0 B4! This is an update release containing
|
|
patches from community members (Stephen Heumann and Kelvin Sherlock),
|
|
which fix several bugs and also add some new features. For details on
|
|
these changes, see the cc.notes file in the Release.Notes directory.
|
|
|
|
This package is designed to be applied as an update to an existing
|
|
ORCA installation containing ORCA/C 2.1.0 or later (including the one
|
|
provided on Opus ][: The Software). To apply the update, simply copy
|
|
the files from this distribution into the corresponding locations in
|
|
your ORCA installation, replacing any older versions. (One easy way
|
|
to do this is to extract the archive containing this update directly
|
|
on top of your ORCA installation, overwriting all modified files.)
|
|
|
|
In addition to the ORCA shell environment, this update can also be
|
|
used under other environments that are compatible with ORCA/C, such as
|
|
GNO and Golden Gate. In these cases, only the directories containing
|
|
files from a standard ORCA installation (normally /lang/orca for GNO)
|
|
should be updated. The GNO-specific libraries and headers in other
|
|
directories should not be modified. The ones provided with GNO 2.0.6
|
|
can be used with this version of ORCA/C, although they do not contain
|
|
all the updates and bug fixes described in the ORCA/C release notes.
|
|
|
|
If you have any questions, or if you want to get involved in ORCA/C
|
|
development, please get in touch. The ORCA/C development project is
|
|
hosted on GitHub, and bug reports or patches can be submitted there:

Thanks to:
|
|
* Mike Westerfield, for writing ORCA/C, releasing the source code,
|
|
and permitting it to be updated by the community.
|
|
* Kelvin Sherlock, for providing several patches and bug reports, and
|
|
for writing several useful tools for modern Apple II development.
|
|
* Soenke Behrens, for compiling a list of ORCA/C bug reports and test
|
|
cases, which has helped me to identify and fix a number of bugs.
|
|
* The developers of Csmith (http://embed.cs.utah.edu/csmith/), an
|
|
automated compiler testing tool that has helped to find several bugs.
