- Update to 1.11.0:
* Big news:
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.081.2.
(#2752, #2772, #2776, #2791, #2815) (new)
- Add some support for classes without TypeInfos, for
-betterC and/or a minimal (d)runtime. (#2765)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v6.0.1.
The x86_64 packages feature some more LLVM targets for
cross-compilation (experiments): MIPS, MSP430, RISC-V
and WebAssembly. (#2760)
- Rudimentary support for compiling & linking directly to
WebAssembly. See the dedicated Wiki page for how to get
started. (#2766, #2779, #2785)
- AArch64 (64-bit ARM) now mostly working on Linux/glibc
and Android. Current ltsmaster is able to bootstrap v1.11,
which can also bootstrap itself; most tests pass.
(Preliminary) CI has been set up. (#2802, #2817, #2813) (new)
- LDC on Windows now uses 80-bit compile-time reals. This allows
for seamless cross-compilation to other x86(_64) targets,
e.g., without real.min underflowing to 0 and real.max
overflowing to infinity. (#2752)
- New @naked UDA in ldc.attributes & enhanced functionality
for @llvmAttr("<name>"). (#2773)
* Platform support:
- Supports LLVM 3.7 - 6.0.
- Windows: Supports Visual Studio/C++ Build Tools 2015 and 2017.
- Alpine linux/x64: built against Musl libc to support Docker
images based on the Alpine distro, requires the llvm5-libs,
musl-dev, and gcc packages to build and link D apps and the
tzdata and libcurl packages for certain stdlib modules.
* Bug fixes:
- extern(C++) on Posix: Pass non-PODs indirectly by value.
(#2728)
- extern(C++) on Windows/MSVC: Methods return all structs via
hidden sret pointer. (#2720, #1935)
- Make GC2Stack IR optimization pass work as intended. (#2750)
- Work around inline assembly regression with LLVM 6 on Win32.
The prebuilt Win32 package is now using LLVM 6.0.1 too. (#2629, #2770)
- Fix overzealous check for multiple main() functions. (#2778) (new)
- Fix corrupt prefix in integrated LLD's console output. (#2781) (new)
- No context ptr for nested non-extern(D) functions. (#2808, #2809) (new)
* Known issues:
- LDC does not zero the padding area of a real variable. This may
lead to wrong results if the padding area is also considered.
See #770. Does not apply to real members inside structs etc.
- Update bootstrap version to 0.17.6:
* Added support for LLVM 6.0 and 7.0. (#2600, #2825)
* Backported AArch64 fixes from master; most tests passing on
Linux/glibc and Android
* Fix generation of debug info. (#2594)
* Added support for bootstrapping on DragonFly BSD
* Fixed missing definition in std.datetime on Solaris
* Fixed std.datetime unittest failure. (ldc-developers/phobos#59)
* Fixed tests for PowerPC. (#2634, #2635)
* Improvements for MIPS.
* Make core.stdc.stdarg.va_* functions nothrow to enable
compiling the 2.082 frontend. (#2821)
* CI updates.
- Remove upstreamed patches:
* ldc-0.17.5-add_missing_include.patch
* ldc-0.17.5-add_support_to_LLVM6.patch
* ldc-0.17.5-backport_pr_2315.patch
* ldc-0.17.5-default-to-pic.patch
- Enable aarch64 since it can be boostrapped with ldc 0.17.6
- Fix x86_64 build by adding '-fPIC' to C_FLAGS of bootstrap
