The TinyCOBOL compiler version 0.64 is available for download at the TC
home page (1).
Lots of bug fixes and improvements.
File IO run-time has been re-written and now supports variable length
sequential, relative and indexed files.
On the negative side, FILE/RECORD locks are NOT supported. The BDB 185
API does not support locks. And as usual wind*ws does not support UN*X
type locks (not that I could find ...).
Important:
The indexed file format has changed and is incompatible with previous TC
versions.
The new format uses two files. A BDB file which contains all indexes,
and a sequential file which contains the data.
Do NOT attempt to read/write old indexed files using TC 0.64.
It is recommended that all indexed files be re-build, from a sequential
file, using TC 0.64.
Please report any bugs and/or problems to the TC mailing list.
