we don't expect another beta release

But what about this show-stopping bug -> viewtopic.php?p=606905#p606905

[luis]

But what about this show-stopping bug

If that's a bug, why is not being reported as a bug ? That thread is in general discussion(s).

Indeed. Had it been reported as a bug, it may have actually been fixed in the beta 6 release.

[BarryG]

I didn't report it originally; it was DoubleDutch's post. Then I noticed yesterday that it actually was affecting me now, so I've flagged it with the mods to move it to Bugs, but it hasn't been moved yet. Just bad timing that I discovered it when a new beta is coming out.

[Fred]

Please calm down here, thanks.

Thank you Fred and team for your diligence and fresh fixes.

Good one

Hello folks,

2023-09-09: beta 6 is available with a few more fixes before going live ! Makes sure to test it with your regular projects as we don't expect another beta release.

Code: Select all

- Added: #PB_Compiler_DPIAware compiler constant.
- Optimized: Smaller and more readable C generated file.

@Fred,

Sorry to sound bad, but the code generated (executable) has the same size as beta 5 and it has the same speed (if not slower).

Am I missing something?

Thanks!

EDIT: I am referring to the C backend, of course.
