Some of the changes:

  • bash completion scripts are available.
  • The foundation of an Objective C / Dylan bridge has been integrated with the compiler. This enables using the objc-dylan library.
  • Passing structs by value using C-FFI now works on both the C and HARP back-ends.
  • Performance improvements have been made to various libraries.
  • Laying the groundwork for LLVM compiler back-end support to arrive in 2015.
  • Laying the groundwork for improving our Unicode support.
  • Many other miscellaneous fixes and improvements.

        I actually did the release in 2014… Just didn’t announce it.

        The 2015.1 release should bring the LLVM back-end. It will probably bring some other fun stuff if I can drag myself out of my funk or find some source of motivation. There is a lot of stuff that could be wrapped up (easy and otherwise).

          Despite the announcement being in 2015, the release was packaged on Dec. 28, 2014 :)
