Open Dylan 1.0 beta 4 release


Dear Dylan Hacker,

I am proud to announce the Open Dylan 1.0 beta 4 release. This is the
first public release for all supported platforms: Windows (x86), Linux
(x86), FreeBSD (x86), Mac OS X (ppc and x86). The IDE is still only
available on Windows so far, on all other OS only a batch-compiler is
working. But we are working on a GTK+ 2.x backend for DUIM.

The release was done by the Dylan Maintainers, a group of Dylan users
all over the world, communicating via the gd-hackers <at> gwydiondylan.org
mailing list as well as via IRC, irc.freenode.net, channel #dylan.
Please let us know about any problems you encounter.

Open Dylan was formerly known as Functional Developer, formerly known
as Harlequin Dylan.

The released binaries are available from
  http://www.opendylan.org/downloads/opendylan/1.0beta4/

Here is a partial list of resolved issues:
* The c back end of DFMC works now, and is used on Mac OS X. This
  eases porting the compiler to various architectures.

* 'macroexpand expression' is now working in system and user
  projects. This can be invoked either via the IDE or via the
  interactive compiler environment.

* SO_REUSEADDR is set on sockets opened, so an application can
  open a socket which has old connections in use. No need to

Re: Open Dylan 1.0 beta 4 release

Thanks for your work (and the work of all the other contributors) to the
beta 4 release.

It's a professional announcement. 

Additional information I like to see is:

* Is there a tag in the subversion for that release?
  or 
Can you state the subversion version nummer which was used to build the
release?

Please, add an appropriate information to the wiki entry:

 http://wiki.opendylan.org/wiki/view.dsp?title=Open%20Dylan%201.0%20Beta%204

Thanks,

Pet-ro

I added it there. We have a opendylan-1.0beta4-win32 tag. Also, the
README in the FreeBSD and linux tarball reference a subversion revision.

Re: Open Dylan 1.0 beta 4 release


More a user question than a hacker question 
about Open Dylan 1.0 beta 4 release:

How to change the IDE from its "hacking mode" into a "user mode"?

By "hacking mode" I mean the behavior that the IDE menu item 
"Project > Clean Build" builds even the dylan language libraries
again. In a "user mode" these libraries would not be build again.

Could some describe:

* how to change from the hacking mode to user mode

and what's necessary to turn back

* how to change from the user mode to the hacking mode

pet-ro

BTW, in the "hacking mode" the Open Dylan Playground does not work.
I expect that in a "user mode" there is no issue.

May be a wiki entry titled "How to config OD's IDE ..." would be an
appropriate place to mention that.

This is currently hardcoded. It would be nice to have an environment
switch for it.
Rayiner mentioned the code place some weeks ago in IRC:

          := add!(platform-system-registries, platform-registry);

It was introduced by change #9982 by andreas with the following comment:

I can't find a darwin-ppc version on the site as promised above.
