binary_types 0.0.16

Binary types are set of classes that allows access the binary data in "C" language way.

0.0.16

• Added more compatibility with C99 standard. Flexible arrays, declaration and behavior of the bit-fields, behavior of the packed structural types
• Completely reimplemented the structural types. Introduced the concept of the storage units for compatibility of the libffi library
• Initial support of bit-fields. Currently only declaration without an access/modification (will be added later)
• Slightly reduced the dependence on unsafe_extension through the new concept of the _PhysicalData. _PhysicalData implements ByteData with unlimited length (for preventing the overhead on the data manipulation with a large data massives with the length greater than the size of Smi)

0.0.15

• Added support for macro processing

0.0.14

• Better error messages in BinaryTypes.declare() about problems in binary declarations

0.0.12

• Added field BinaryType.original
• Added field BinaryTypes.types

0.0.11

• Initial support of enum binary type

0.0.10

• Added experimental support of enum binary type
• Added new concept: type members. Concept actual for enum, struct and union types
• Breaking change: Members of StructureType (struct and enum) now are StructureMember instead to be of just a BinaryTypes. They holds the information about name, type and offset

0.0.9

• Breaking change: FunctionType now requires parameter name
• Fixed bugs in forming names of the binary types

0.0.8

• Completely reimplemented the compatibility type checking mechanics. Now it faster and more accurate and compromise between C and C++ languages
• Completely reimplemented the integer type system fully compatible with the basic C language types

0.0.7

• Completely reimplemented the mechanics of naming of the binary types. Now types displayed correctly

0.0.6

• Made adaptations to the new version of package binary_declarations

0.0.5

• Added field BinaryData.base
• Added field BinaryData.offset
• Initial support of binary declartions. Declarations through the special header files from now supports the typedef types, struct and union declarations
• Removed class Reference in favor of the "all-sufficient" implementation of the Binary Data
• Removed getter BinaryData.location
• Removed operator BinaryData.operator~)

0.0.4

• Added BinaryTypes.declare()
• Added BinaryTypes.typeDef()
• Removed BinaryTypeHelper.typeDef()

0.0.3

• Changes in the PointerType.name. Array types quoted for the better readability. Eg. (char[10])* means a pointer to char[10].

0.0.2

• Make available the source code

0.0.1

• Initial release
