It's been a while since the last release and all of our doc refers to nightly builds, so a nightly build has been promoted into a release.

This release of z88dk contains many significant changes over the 1.99B, significantly increasing the number of supported systems, improving source code compatibility between the two compilers and natively supporting more z80 derivative CPUs. The major changes are detailed below:

  • sccz80 has seen many changes, included frontend parsing enhancements and
    code generator optimisations
  • sccz80 accepts the same extension syntax as zsdcc
  • The sccz80 preprocessor has been changed to ucpp which is C99 compatible
  • z80asm now supports Rabbit 2000/3000, z180 and ZX Next CPUs
  • Appmake can now generate disc images for many CP/M machines
  • Classic supports several new targets
  • Classic provides a standard VT52 console for many targets
  • newlib now provides extensive support for the ZX Spectrum Next
  • newlib support for the RC2014 and z180 has been significantly improved
