Resized Image
A new version of PortablE has been released. PortablE is an AmigaE compiler, written from scratch in E, and able to compile itself. It supports Windows, Amiga OS3, OS4, AROS & MorphOS.



The main changes for this release are:
* PortablE now has basic support for Windows, along with some standard
portable modules which allow the same program to run unchanged on
Windows & Amiga. Documentation & several examples are provided.

* PortablE now comes with an installer (for all supported platforms).

* The PEGCC program runs both PortablE and G++ (GCC) for you, thus
producing an executable directly from E code.

* PortablE now runs up to twice as fast.
* Added MUI support for AROS.
* Fixed modules to work with Amiga OS4's latest SDK.
* FastNew() & NEW are now thread safe.
* Fixed FastNew() & NEW, which were previously un-aligned & so could
cause crashes under certain circmstances.
* OpenLibrary() could a crash on Amiga OS4. Really fixed this time!
* Numerous other improvements, changes & bug fixes.

If anyone downloaded PortablE before this message was posted, I recommend downloading it again, due to a couple of small oversights being fixed.

@Chris
Been too busy with the OS-independent modules, and especially the Windows (POSIX) implementation of them. Not yet decided what to do next though...

Of course, you could always try creating PortablE modules for the bsdsocket stuff yourself... :)
