Dear SDCC developers and users, Today SDCC 3.8.0 has been released. As always it has been put online in our SourceForge File section. https://sourceforge.net/projects/sdcc/files/
In previous release 3.7.0, no binaries were released. 3.8.0 has binaries again, though the list of binary platforms changed. For 3.8.0, binaries are released for GNU/Linux on amd64, Windows on amd64, macOS on amd64, Windows on x86. There have been various improvements, both features and bug fixes since SDCC 3.7.0. The full ChangeLog is at https://sourceforge.net/p/sdcc/code/HEAD/tree/tags/sdcc-3.8.0-pre1/sdcc/ChangeLog. The following is a list of particularly noteworthy new features. * Additional general utility function: bsearch() * Support for rematerialization in the stm8 backend reduces register pressure and stack usage * Merged upstream GNU binutils 2.30 * All Python code is now fully compatible with both Python 2.7 and Python 3.6, so Python 3 can be used instead of Python 2. * Regression testing for diagnostics. * Improved handling of local bool variables in the mcs51 backend substantially reduces code size. * Large memory model for stm8 for 24-bit codespace allows using more than 32KB of Flash for code. * New optimizations for calls to some standard library function (printf(), puts(), strcpy()). * The type of true and false from stdbool.h change from int to bool. * New C2X mode (--std-c2x, --std-sdcc2x, #pragma std_c2x) adds support for one-argument static_assert variant. * Intermingling of declarations and statements (ISO C99). * Support headers for AX8052 devices. * Adopted GCC 8.2 regression tests (execute part of the GCC C torture tests).
