Changed the way moduleinfo is registered to use the same approach as DMD, this eliminates the need for correct linking order and should make the way for using a natively compiled runtime library. This should speed up linking tremendously and should now be possible.
Fixed the llvm.used array to only be emitted if really necessary.
Still need to make sure calls are turned into invokes everywhere. (NewExpression for instance)
Still some rough edges and corner cases to figure out.
Needs testing!
Changed the tryfinally handlers to a more generalized EnclosingHandler.
Changed ClassInfoS to be mutable so they can be used as locks.
Added new BB after throw ala return/break etc.
Fixed problems with label collisions when using labels inside inline asm. LabelStatement is now easily reached given its
Identifier, which should be useful elsewhere too.
Enabled inline asm for building the lib/compiler/llvmdc runtime code, fixing branches out of asm makes this possible.
Renamed emit_finallyblocks to DtoFinallyBlocks and moved to llvmhelpers.
Added enclosingtryfinally to AsmBlockStatement, so branches out of asm blocks respect finallys.
Refactored some GotoStatement code into DtoGoto.
Fixed a bunch of the built-in typeinfos for arrays, they did not inherit TypeInfo_Array.
Applied patch to tango/text/convert/Layout.d by fvbommel, closes#47 .
Cleaned up some type code.
Replaced uses of llvm::Type with LLType (a typedef), same for Value and Constant.
Fixed a few cases where typeinfo for user structs could be emitted multiple times, seems to still be some cases of this :/
Fixed a bunch of bugs with return/break/continue in loops.
Fixed support for the DMDFE hidden implicit return value variable. This can be needed for some foreach statements where the loop body is converted to a nested delegate, but also possibly returns from the function.
Added std.math to phobos.
Added AA runtime support code, done ground work for implementing AAs.
Several other bugfixes.
Basically it tries to do the following in order: Resolve types, Declare symbols, Create constant initializers, Apply initializers, Generate functions bodies.
ClassInfo is now has the most useful(biased?) members working.
Probably other stuf...
Split up declaration, constant initializer gen and definition for globals, structs, classes and functions.
Improved ClassInfo support (not complete), not in vtable yet.
Fixed a bunch of forward reference problems.
Much more. Major commit! :)
Added support for array .sort and .reverse properties.
Fixed some bugs with pointer arithmetic.
Disabled some DMD AST optimizations that was messing things up, destroying valuable information.
Added a KDevelop project file, this is what I use for coding LLVMDC now :)
Other minor stuff.
Lots of bugfixes.
Added support for special foreach on strings.
Added std.array, std.utf, std.ctype and std.uni to phobos.
Changed all the .c files in the gen dir to .cpp (it *is* C++ after all)
Fixed some nested function problems when accessing outer function parameters.
Major changes to handling of structs.
Initial support for unions.
Probably more...
Fixed identity expression for dynamic arrays.
Revamped the system to keep track of lvalues and rvalues and their relations.
Typedef declaration now generate the custom typeinfo.
Other bugfixes.
* Updated object.d to 1.021
* Added -novalidate command line option. this is sometimes useful when debugging as it may let you read the .ll even if it's invalid.
Applied fixes from wilsonk on the forum
Some tweaks to work with gc 7.0
Fixed aggregate members of aggregates
Fixed cyclic/recursive class declarations
Other minor tweaks
