@@ -442,3 +442,97 @@ corruption at ends of long PUBDEF records. Separated DOS archives into main-program and documentation to reduce download size. + +0.98 not released yet +--------------------- + +Fixed a bug whereby STRUC didn't work at all in RDF. + +Fixed a problem with group specification in PUBDEFs in OBJ. + +Improved ease of adding new output formats. Contribution due to +Fox Cutter. + +Fixed a bug in relocations in the `bin' format: was showing up when +a relocatable reference crossed an 8192-byte boundary in any output +section. + +Fixed a bug in local labels: local-label lookups were inconsistent +between passes one and two if an EQU occurred between the definition +of a global label and the subsequent use of a local label local to +that global. + +Fixed a seg-fault in the preprocessor (again) which happened when +you use a blank line as the first line of a multi-line macro +definition and then defined a label on the same line as a call to +that macro. + +Fixed a stale-pointer bug in the handling of the NASM environment +variable. Thanks to Thomas McWilliams. + +ELF had a hard limit on the number of sections which caused +segfaults when transgressed. Fixed. + +Added ability for ndisasm to read from stdin by using `-' as the +filename. + +ndisasm wasn't outputting the TO keyword. Fixed. + +Fixed error cascade on bogus expression in %if - an error in +evaluation was causing the entire %if to be discarded, thus creating +trouble later when the %else or %endif was encountered. + +Forward reference tracking was instruction-granular not operand- +granular, which was causing 286-specific code to be generated +needlessly on code of the form `shr word [forwardref],1'. Thanks to +Jim Hague for sending a patch. + +All messages now appear on stdout, as sending them to stderr serves +no useful purpose other than to make redirection difficult. + +Fixed the problem with EQUs pointing to an external symbol - this +now generates an error message. + +Allowed multiple size prefixes to an operand, of which only the first +is taken into account. + +Incorporated John Fine's changes, including fixes of a large number +of preprocessor bugs, some small problems in OBJ, and a reworking of +label handling to define labels before their line is assembled, rather +than after. + +Reformatted a lot of the source code to be more readable. Included +'coding.txt' as a guideline for how to format code for contributors. + +Stopped nested %reps causing a panic - they now cause a slightly more +friendly error message instead. + +Fixed floating point constant problems (patch by Pedro Gimeno) + +Fixed the return value of insn_size() not being checked for -1, indicating +an error. + +Incorporated 3D now instructions. + +Fixed the 'mov eax, eax + ebx' bug. + +Fixed the GLOBAL EQU bug in ELF. Released developers release 3. + +Incorporated John Fine's command line parsing changes + +Incorporated David Lindauer's OMF debug support + +Made changes for LCC 4.0 support (__NASM_CDecl__, removed register size +specification warning when sizes agree). + +Released NASM 0.98 Pre-release 1 + +fixed bug in outcoff.c to do with truncating section names longer +than 8 characters, referencing beyond end of string; 0.98 pre-release 2 + +added response file support, improved command line handling, new layout +help screen + +fixed limit checking bug, 'OUT byte nn, reg' bug, and a couple of rdoff +related bugs, updated Wishlist; 0.98 Prerelease 3. + |
