------------------------------------

New in E-VO (3.5.0)
- Added ac020 object with pad int to allow optimised 32 bit writes on
020+ courtesy of Samuel D. Crow
- When compiling in debug, disable the optimisation that removes LINK,
UNLK in procs where not needed (EDBG doesnt step properly when these
aren't present)
- EDBG: Add case insensitive search
- EDBG: Added search next
- EDBG: Display variable values in both hex and decimal
- Fixed: Clears an extra byte in the String() initialisation causing
memory corruption in the case of String(0)
- EDBG: Enhanced breakpoints - multiple can now be set and can be
seen/set in a column next to the code
- EDBG: Support for multiple breakpoints and debugging while code is
running.
- EDBG: Added support for debugging under OS4.x (eg without using CPU
exceptions)
- EDBG: Added support for adding watch variables by entering name
- Added support for DEBUG50 mode which allows debugging using JSR
instructions instead of causing cpu exceptions which allows debugging
under OS 4.x
- Added support for multi-dimensional arrays
- Added support for PTR TO PTR variables
- Added EVO_3_5_0 define
- Added ? operator (ported from CreativE)
- Added OPT FPEXP (fpu floating point support - ported from CreativE)
- Added :=: swap operator (ported form CreativE)
- Added OPT INLINE (ported from CreativE)
- Added OPT NOSTARTUP (ported form CreativE)
- Added OPT UTILLIB (ported from CreativE)
- Added NOREGS option (ported from CreativE)
- Updated module format (now version 12) to account for multi-dimension
arrays and PTR TO PTR type in object members
- Ported some optimisation code from CreativE
- Added ENDPROC WITH function (ported from CreativE)
- Added == operator (range check - ported from CreativE)
- Added new system constants TAG_DONE, TAG_END, TAG_INORE, TAG_MORE,
TAG_SKIP, TAG_USER, OFFSET_BEGINNING, OFFSET_BEGINING, OFFSET_CURRENT,
OFFSET_END (ported from CreativE)
- Added new utilitybase variable
- Added 020+ optimised MOD function
- Added support for += -= etc operators (ported from CreativE)
- ShowModule: Added support for new module format (version 12)
- Added improved LONG,INT,CHAR routines from CreativE which allow
expressions
- Added improved SIZEOF command that allows SIZEOF objectvar
- Allow \xNN for hex char in strings
- Add ELSEWHILE and ALWAYS extension to WHILE LOOP (from CreativE)
- Improvements to SELECT x to allow expressions (from CreativE)
- Added LEGACY option to output module format version 10 and disable newer
features
- Fix: 2 << obj.val was generating corrupt code
- Add SECTION (code and data) support
- Fix: ReadStr return value was not completely compatible with EC (fix
Pragma2Module bug)
- ShowModule: Add -e parameter which will force output into a form that
can be directly recompiled
- Added a scanf module in the other folder
- Allow string consts in modules
- Allow float CONST definitions
- Remove some unused startup code when OPT ASM in use.
- ShowModule: Added support for string CONSTs
- Added OFFSETOF to get the offset of a member of an object
- Added MemFill, AstrClone, ListInsItem, ListRemItem, ListSwapItem functions
- EDBG: Support for sections
- FindModule: Coded new FindModule application from scratch with support
for latest module format.
- Make second parameter of SetStr optional and if not specified it will
set the calculate the string length automatically
- Added EndsWith function eg EndsWith(s,'A') returns TRUE if a string1 ends
with string2
- Fix: CHAR '' or CONST STR='' would cause memory corruption
- Fix "3*SIZEOF LONG" error
- added AstpCopy and UsedStack and StackSize functions
New in E-VO (3.4.1)
- Fix: Optimisation error where multiple variables set to the same value
were not set correctly.
