More informative syntax errors
|
||
|
|
The parser now posts the details of syntax errors, example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
@racketblock[
|
||
|
|
[1,2,%,4];
|
||
|
|
123;
|
||
|
|
::
|
||
|
|
Posts the following error message:
|
||
|
|
teletype::
|
||
|
|
ERROR: syntax error, unexpected BINOP, expecting ']'
|
||
|
|
in file 'selected text'
|

line 1 char 6:

Remove old syntax
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
@racketblock[#(a:1):: was valid syntax, but yielded nonsense results. This will now result in a syntax error instead.

SynthDef optimizations for additive terms
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When the SynthDef is compiled, separate additive ugens are combined via the new link::Classes/Sum3:: and
|
||
|
|
link::Classes/Sum4:: ugens.

Basic dead code elimination for SynthDefs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The process of building synthdefs now performs a simple dead code elimination pass, which removes all
|

link::Classes/PureUGen:: instances without successor.

Case sensitive String comparison

SplayAz Bug Fix
|
||
|
|
Positioning of SplayAz was broken. The semantics of the TELETYPE::spread:: and TELETYPE::center:: arguments has
|
||
|
|
been changed in order to fix the behavior.

Array primitives respect mutability
|
||
|
|
The array primitives now respect object mutability: writing to an immutable object now fails and changing an
|
||
|
|
immutable object with TELETYPE::add::, TELETYPE::addAll::, TELETYPE::insert::, TELETYPE::extend::,
|
||
|
|
TELETYPE::growClear:: and TELETYPE::overwrite:: will return a newly allocated object.
