Release 0.0.5 of libi8x, the Infinity Runtime Library, is now available. You can download the source from infinitynotes.org: https://infinitynotes.org/src/libi8x/libi8x-0.0.5.tar.xz (md5sum e9ac85a90fe9b878b0390bd7b1fdd899) You can build from source using the usual ./configure, make process, or, on rpm-based systems you *may* be able to build rpms straight from the tarball: rpmbuild -ta libi8x-0.0.5.tar.xz (Let me know if there's a Debian/Ubuntu equivalent, I'll add it!) libi8x 0.0.5 brings new features and improvements, including: * The shared library libi8x.so is now versioned, and a number of symbols have been made internal in preparation for a 1.0 release. The soname has been changed from libi8x.so.0 to libi8x.so.1 to reflect this. * libi8x now has Python bindings, and tests may now be written using Python or C. * The debug interpreter defaults to on if log level >= LOG_DEBUG when the execution context is created, so it's no longer necessary to set I8X_DEBUG to see trace messages. * The I8X_DEBUG environment variable has been renamed as I8X_DBG_MEM to reflect the fact that it now has a single purpose (enabling the debug allocator). * libi8x now supports local functions. These are native functions registered with a zero-length provider; they may be accessed by reference but not by name. Essentially they are anonymous functions with optional names. For a complete list and more details on each item, please see the NEWS file. Please note that the Python bindings have a separate release schedule from libi8x. They're shipped in the main libi8x tarball (to run the testsuite) but regular users should use the versioned releases from https://infinitynotes.org/src/libi8x-python or PyPI. -- https://infinitynotes.org/
