Version 0.01
------------
* initial release
------------
Version 0.02
------------
* decreased the complex test file, which speeds up the complex test
and decreases the size of the distribution file
* decreased the number of threads in the threads test
* added copyright notice to the README file
* minor corrections/cleanups
------------
Version 0.03
------------
* fixed default sizes for floats and double in object constructor
* fixed some 64-bit architecture issues
* fixed bug in bison parser
* fixed problems with some tests
* added support for dec_osf platform
------------
Version 0.04
------------
* support for 64-bit data types on all platforms
* additional data types
o long long
o long double
* new methods
o clean -- cleaning an object
o clone -- cloning an object
o depencencies -- retrieve an object's dependencies
o sourcify -- emit an object's parsed data as C source
* changed method behaviour
o configure
- The 'HashSize' option has been removed. I didn't like
it anyway, and since the hash tables are now growing
automatically, it's completely useless.
o def
- Instead of undef, 0 and 1, the def method will now return
undef, '' (the empty string) or the kind of the type you
passed as an argument, e.g. 'typedef' or 'union'.
* added method behaviour
o configure
- Calls to configure (and other configuration methods) can
be chained together when they're 'set' method calls.
o parse, parse_file
- All method calls that have no return value will return a
reference to their object, so method chaining is possible.
o pack, unpack, sizeof, offsetof, member
- These methods now can all operate on compound members, i.e.
you could say $obj->sizeof( 'type.foo.x' ).
o member
- The member method now can optionally return the type of the
requested member.
* new Convert::Binary::C::Cached module
o cached Convert::Binary::C objects
o identical interface
o can speed up parsing by up to 10 - 20 times
* increased speed for packing and unpacking arrays
* increased portability
* added new and improved existing tests
* some bug fixes and a lot of code cleanups
* upgraded to bison 1.75
------------
Version 0.05
------------
* fixed a bug that suppressed the error message
when the cache file could not be created, and
added a test for it
------------
Version 0.06
------------
* removed options 'HasVOID' and 'HasC99Keywords'
* added 'DisabledKeywords' option, which replaces both 'HasVOID' and
'HasC99Keywords', and allows to disable a lot of other keywords, too:
HasVOID => 0 --> DisabledKeywords => ['void']
HasC99Keywords => 0 --> DisabledKeywords => [qw(inline restrict)]
* updated parser to ignore type definitions within code blocks
* fixed an access violation when cleaning up the preprocessor
* removed warning when using sourcify method
* added some more tests
* added examples directory and some example scripts
* added more examples to documentation
* documentation fixes/updates
