Removed use of dyn_cast, llvm no compiles
without exceptions and rtti by
default. We do need exceptions for the libconfig stuff, but rtti isn't
necessary (anymore).
Debug info needs to be rewritten, as in LLVM 2.7 the format has
completely changed. To have something to look at while rewriting, the
old code has been wrapped inside #ifndef DISABLE_DEBUG_INFO , this means
that you have to define this to compile at the moment.
Updated tango 0.99.9 patch to include updated EH runtime code, which is
needed for LLVM 2.7 as well.
Also moved the #defines for linkage types into a separate header instead of
mars.h so we can #include revisions.h without having to rebuild the entire
frontend every time we update.
(I'm using revisions.h to get the LLVM revision for use in preprocessor
conditionals. It should work with LLVM release 2.5, old trunk and new trunk)
Changed -g switch to emit DW_LANG_D debug info, make demangling work with a patched GDB, still more work to do for full support of D's Dwarf extensions.
Added getNullValue helper method.
Fixed function literals in static initializers.
Changed alignment of delegates from 2*PTRSIZE to just PTRSIZE.
Changed errors to go to stderr instead of stdout.
Fairly major rewriting of struct/union/class handling, STILL A BIT BUGGY !!!
Reimplemented support for nested functions/class using a new approach.
Added error on taking address of intrinsic.
Fixed problems with the ->syntaxCopy of TypeFunction delegate exp.
Removed DtoDType and replaced all uses with ->toBasetype() instead.
Removed unused inplace stuff.
Fixed a bunch of issues in the runtime unittests, not complete yet.
Added mini tests.
Added: started support for x86 80bit floating point.
Changed: aggregates passed by value now use the llvm 'byval' parameter attribute, also lays ground work for
using other attributes.
Changed: eliminated a lot more std::vectorS, these showed up pretty much at the top when profiling!
Changed: performed other misc. cleanups.
Changed: halt expression now call the new llvm trap intrinsic instead of an assert(0).
Changed: dstress suite now passes -O0 by default, this only eliminates unreferenced globals, which speeds up
linking quite a bit.
Fixed a bunch of the built-in typeinfos for arrays, they did not inherit TypeInfo_Array.
Applied patch to tango/text/convert/Layout.d by fvbommel, closes#47 .
Cleaned up some type code.
Replaced uses of llvm::Type with LLType (a typedef), same for Value and Constant.
Fixed a few cases where typeinfo for user structs could be emitted multiple times, seems to still be some cases of this :/
