What exactly happened between 5.42 LTS and 5.44 LTS?

I just tried to update the PB version 5.42 LTS to the current 5.44 LTS and did not expect that many issues. But sadly, I have several issues now pointing to problems in either DLL usage or memory management (PeekS, AllocateMemory etc).

In order to help me finding the issues, is there a changelog of what exactly has been done in those versions? So what happened or what functions have been touched or changed? So I would focus on them for searching...

Best,

Kukulkan

Not much to offer currently. All I see is fixes to "Some compiler and libraries related bugs", when looking at the History section of the PB Help.

Not pleasant or preferable thing but might be-able to search the Bugs forums using version specific search criteria to see changes, fixes.

You able to paste some culprit lines with error messages?

I was able to find out at what functionality it fails. I created a bug report here:

Looks like the Prototype.q bug again. Use 5.43 for now.

Sorry to see that. At least it's figured out, and you have a non-preferable workaround. I'm sure Fred is working on it.
