[Jamiga-developers] New Release 0.0.0.0.1 now with JIT engine!

[Peter W. <pe...@we...>]

Hello JAmigans,

we have just released pre-alpha 0.0.0.0.1 (note there's one zero less
:D )

This is the first version to feature a JIT engine. This first version
will NOT be able to JIT-compile all opcodes, but some smaller methods
should be compiled fine (I may include some tests in a separate tar.gz
later, just try some things for now)

Any developer here is kindly asked to test heavily. A source-tarball is
also included. The most ugly problem I came across I actually require
your help:

src/JIT.cpp

search the "case 0x12 // ldc" - line

The ldc-command wreaks havoc in SOME cases when ldc-ing a String (e.g.
when you try the MathTest-class or the Test-class (both enclosed in any
tarball)
As I spent quite a few days and nights with this, I'll actually give
away a Tomb Raider (1) DVD (german version / RegionCode 2) for the
first one to come up with a solution! (only valid 'til 30-Sep though,
I'll put it on ebay after that :) )

Many thanks,

Peter Werno
