D.gnu - GDC news?

Any news on a new GDC version ? (David?)

Seems like there were some things changed
in DMD 0.103 - 0.109, that could be useful ?
And some pending patches for GDC, of course

Is it still awaiting the major rewrites,
like changing GC implementation and fixing
classes that reference each other and such ?


I was toying around with GCC 4.0, but it
looks like the new "GIMPLE" expressions
will require some major rewrites for GDC...

PS.
Is there a CVS/SVN between the releases ?

Still working...  I should probably just get a release out with the 
accumulated bug fixes and DMD merges.

Yes, we could all help you test it (possibly even develop) then...

You might want one "stable" release and one development snapshot ?

It expects.
Somewhat, even if processing becomes slow, what has short GC time is good.
Since GC time when there are many use memories thinks that it is the hindrance
of spread.

I don't think the translator worked too well on that post. :-)

Most of your other posts have been fairly understandable, though.  So 
don't give up! :-)

Thank you John.

I expect your GC very much.
GC time longger is not good in the GAME.
I expect your GC implements time is short.

By the GAME program,
if processing becomes slow then
if GC time becomes short then
good
else
but
else
if GC time becomes short then
good
else
but.

GC time is short is good.
A = Processing becomes slow.
B = GC time becomes short.
A is also easy to be B.

Processing becomes slow is also easy to be GC time becomes short.

It is good if GC time will be short even if processing speed becomes slow.

^o^

I just want to be clear: I'm not going to change the actual GC 
algorithm.  What will change is the way the stack and static data 
segments are found.  The reason for doing this is to remove the 
dependency on the Java package.

For games, you could try allocating a large pool of memory early on and 
avoid using the usual allocation routines.  I'm thinking of the 
"ActorPool" in Kenta Cho's games.

If someone wants to contribute a new GC implementation that, for 
example, allows different contexts, I could add a --with-gc-impl option 
to the Phobos configure script.

That's okay, Hiroshi.

Your last posts were quite readable!
