SISC 1.8.7 (stable) is now released and available from the SISC website
at http://sisc.sourceforge.net. This release corrects a number of bugs
found since the 1.8.5 stable release, and provides a performance boost
to the character handling operations. Below are the bugs fixed in this
release.
Just as a reminder, the 1.8.x series is the last stable release which
will include the old S2J and generic procedures modules (old-s2j
old-generic-procedures).
* [823824] Fixed a bug in SRFI-19's |current-data|
* [830507] Fixed serialized references to some Java 1.4 specific classes
in S2J
* [856491] Fixed a serialization bug where VLR recycling was
introducing spurious references which caused the entire heap
to be serialized for even simple objects.
* [857181] Fixed a bug in SRFI-13 where |string-contains| was returning
incorrect results
* [864792] Fixed a bug where stream serialization could
cause a stack overflow
* [870468] Serialization of Java objects wasn't possible.
* [870845] The n-ary character comparison functions used internally
by several character predicates weren't working correctly.
* [875150] |directory-list| on non-directories was causing a
non-fatal NullPointerException.
* [878707] Error continuations weren't wind safe.
* Fixed Interpreter.eval, which was causing an error when
strict-r5rs mode was on
* Fixed |char-whitespace?| which returned #f for #\return
* Fixed several error handling and inexactness contagion bugs in
the numeric tower.
Enjoy!
