0.6.0
New features
- @Intrigus: C++ target with GC continuing the work on @dsp-omen that created the initial c++ target
- AS3 target (BigTest passes)
- Dart target (BigTest passes)
- Prevent generating runtime invisible annotations
- Added com.jtransc.io.async package to handle asynchronous I/O
- Improved com.jtransc.js.JsDynamic
Changes
- Some refactorings at CommonGenerator
@JTranscNativeName now supports a target field to have a class has different types on different targets
Fixes
- @SergeyLabutin – Static initialization fixes
- @SergeyLabutin – Some thread work on Haxe/CPP
- Handle template references inside
@JTranscCallSiteBody
Implemented features
- @SergeyLabutin – Implemented Class.getGenericSuperclass
Optimizations
- Better output quality (less casts), still left
- Lightly improved compile time
- Improved StringBuilder runtime in all targets
- Improved slightly performance on all targets (simplifying Object construction)
- D put strings at compile-time since Object construction no longer require runtime
- C# implemented genStmSetArrayLiterals reducing output size and startup time
- Rework on Haxe arrays and casts specially in C++ for a major performance boost
- Implemented Haxe-C++ goto hack for even better performance on loops
Deprecations
- Array casts are now deprecated and removed, because that requirement was slowing down some implementations. In the future we will explore other options. For now, please use Mem/FastMemory* classes.
- Deprecated { % FIELD % } and { % METHOD % } (replaces to
NAME ) in favour of { % IFIELD % } and { % IMETHOD % } (replaces to .NAME or ['NAME'] in JS just when required and works with minification)
- Deprecated
@JTranscNativeClass that was redundant due to @JTranscNativeName .
