1.2.0       Sept 2012
======================

Notable changes and features
----------------------------
- Front-end: experimental support of new floating point types (half and double).
- New LLVM backend with static compilation (the old version is renamed as Jade
backend).
- The C++ backend is back with an included runtime.
- For backends which export a runtime library (C, TTA, Java, LLVM), it is now
possible to deactivate this export, to not overwrite user-modified library.
- LLVM/Jade backends: experimental support of floating point type.
- TTA backend:
* new interconnection mechanism between the processors.
* support simulation and profiling using ttanetsim (experimental branch of TCE).
* add option to choose the configuration of the processors between several
predefined profiles.
* support the mapping of several actors on the same processor.
- C/LLVM backend : Folder structure of generated application has changed. It is now
  /
  |-bin/
  |-build/
  |-libs/
  |  |-orcc/
  |  |-roxml/
  |  |-windows/
  |-src
  CMake must be run from the root folder of the application (and not
  from src/ anymore)
  Final executable is now written in bin/ folder
- UI: Improve user experience by printing better error messages.

Bugfixes
--------
- UI: Removing an existing mapping was not possible without removing the runtime
configuration.
- Tools: The classifier, the action merger and the actor merger are (almost)
working back and their performances have been improved.
- Interpreter: working with imports within imports.
- RoXML: Update to latest version to fix some parsing errors on Windows caused by
CRLF for end of line.

Misc
----
- Move the 'models' plugin in Orcc repository and remove dependencies to dftools.
- The Java backend is now using Xtend instead StringTemplate to generate the files.

We are glad to announce the release 1.1.1 of Orcc. You have also to install Graphiti-editor 1.3.10 with it. Notable changes and features :

• The interpreter has been improved it checks some inconsistency in the code (bit exact simulation and floating point simulation).
• The TTA backend has been improved to reduce the logic utilization on the target platform.

We worked for some weeks to setup a continuous integration server. This work will help us to find as soon as possible all errors (when building orcc plugins/feature, when running to build apps, when running apps, etc.) that could happens. The first benefit of this work for all developpers is the new nightly repository. Starting today, you can use a new eclipse update site to test current developer version of Orcc feature.... read more

New Orcc stable release announced for April 23 :

• Integration server for Orcc compilation tests (nightly Orcc versions available at http://orcc.sourceforge.net/nightly)
• Refactoring of Orcc source code

(http://orcc.sourceforge.net/index.php?id=news&post=orcc-release-111-announced-for-april-23)

A new version of the Orc Compiler is available. This version is numbered 0.5 instead of 0.2 because of the number of changes and improvements.

Please check the Trac wiki to get started and see how to install this new version.

Enjoy!

1. we recently switched over to Subversion
2. I'm proud to announce that the new code generation engine has been completed, and is considered almost stable :-)

To the attention of the developers of Orcc and users of the development version from the Mercurial repository,

the development version of Orcc is broken from revision 296.
This is due to the transition between the existing code generation engines and a new engine that will use templates.
The development version on the repository is expected to be stable again in a few days.

Thanks

The Open RVC-CAL Compiler (Orcc) is a compiler for the RVC-CAL language that can generate code for C and LLVM languages. As of the number of this release suggests, this is still alpha quality software.

As of this release, Orcc is available as an Eclipse plug-in for x86 versions of Linux and Windows.

Please check out the wiki for information on how to install and run Orcc.

The repository of Orcc has been cleaned up. Please make a fresh clone before working with the repository.
