More information on the code size increase can be found at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3400613&group_id=599&atid=100599 Code size history for some backends can be found in the graphs at http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sdcc/wiki/z80%20code%20size and http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sdcc/wiki/hc08%20code%20size it will take time go get code size back to what it was and better for all ports though. > > I have mostly moved to ARM microcontrollers but I am very > interested in keeping sdcc as a Debian package and I want the > package to be up to date.

While I am an sdcc developer and thus get my sdcc from svn anyway I do know people that would like to see current sdcc in Debian. Philipp P.S.: I also think that a 3.2.0 release should be done sometime soon: There have been many commits since 3.1.0; the list of improvements since 3.1.0 has grown quite long: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sdcc/wiki/SDCC%203.2.0%20Release in particular the gbz80 port is usable again, there have been massive improvements in code size in the gbz80 and hc08 ports and sdcc now works on the Hurd. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+2GqIACgkQbtUV+xsoLppOiwCghinQKFQ37sh0Kk3i0kkL5+KP VM0AniBVS8B4TFrPOWYYfQoNxS4Nc2q8 =0/be -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
