ORCA/C uses an unsigned 32-bit time_t which should give a range up to 2105, but calculations on it were being done with signed types, causing them not to work correctly beyond 2036-2038. Now the factor routine, mktime(), and time() should work up to 2105. (In the case of time(), this assumes ReadTimeHex reports the time correctly.) The factor routine actually computes a 64-bit time value. Currently, the rest of the code only takes the bottom 32 bits of it, but this could be extended if we ever wanted to switch to 64-bit time_t.

Libraries for the ORCA language suite (ORCA/C, ORCA/M, ORCA/Pascal) for the Apple IIGS
If you would like to make changes to this compiler and distribute them to others, feel free to submit them here. If the changes apply to the Apple IIGS, they will generally be approved for distribution on the master branch. For changes that retarget the library to generate code for a different platform, the project will either be forked or a new repository will be created, as appropriate.
The general conditions that must be met before a change is released on master are:
-
The modified library must compile under the currently released version of ORCA/M.
-
The various languages that make use of the library mush still pass their respective test suites, or changes to those test suites must also be submitted.
Contact support@byteworks.us if you need contributor access.
A complete distribution of the ORCA languages, including installers and documentation, is available from the Juiced GS store at https://juiced.gs/store/category/software/. It is distributed as part of the Opus ][ package.
