binary_types 0.0.31

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

0.0.30

• Added check on null pointer in BinaryTypeHelper.readString()
• Added getter BinaryData.isNullPtr
• Added getter BinaryType.nullPtr
• Deprecated BinaryType.nullObject()

0.0.29

• Fixed minor bug in the scope resolution of the elaborated types

0.0.27

• Made adaptations to the new version of package binary_declarations

0.0.25

• Added support for obtaining the symbol tables during the parsing declarations in BinaryTypeHelper.declare(). Into the corresponding symbol tables will be added functions and variables

0.0.23

• Completely reimplemented class _Declarations
• Initial support of the _Bool binary type
• Made adaptations to the new version of package binary_declarations
• Reimplemented the structural and the enumeration classes to the full support of the declaring type synonyms in the typedef declarations

0.0.22

• Made adaptations to the new version of package binary_declarations

0.0.21

• Added possibility to import previously declared types into the new binary types. This allows reuse already the declared binary types
• Breaking changes. Class BinaryTypes was freed from the the members that represent primitive types. From now the class BinaryTypes is a lightweight class without any public members

0.0.20

• Function BinaryTypeHelper.declare() returns now the Declarations. This should prevent an unnecessary double parsing of the declarations in binary_interop

0.0.19

• Significant rework of the implementation of the performing the type declarations. The support of the attributes aligned and packed was implemented and was tested
• The predefined values available now in the declarations environment. Currently this is __OS__ __BITNESS__

0.0.18

• Made adaptations to the new version of package binary_declarations

0.0.17

• Class BinaryTypes was freed from the all public members (except the members that represent primitive types). From now it ready for use as the base container class for descendant binary types with the members that represent the declared types as members by their names (synonyms)
• Function BinaryTypes.declare() was moved to BinaryTypeHelper.declare()
• Implementation support of the attributes aligned and packed almost completed
• Initial support of attributes

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
