We are now using the latest Objective C runtime patches from Scott
|
|
|
|
|
Christley. Unfortunately, they runtime changes and the corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
required GNUstep Base Library changes are not compatible with the old
|
|
|
|
|
runtime. That is, you must install the new runtime patches in order
|
|
|
|
|
to compile this version of the GNUstepBase Library.

Each thread now has their own exception handler and assertion handler.
|
|
|
|
|
(I haven't tested the assertion handler, though it should probably
|
|
|
|
|
work).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The biggest change with this patch is that the zone functions use
|
|
|
|
|
objc_malloc() to get more memory and that the default zone can be set
|
|
|
|
|
by the user with NSSetDefaultMallocZone().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I've extended the functionality of zones. Now one can obtain memory
|
|
|
|
|
statistics and also check for integrity. There is also more detailed
|
|
|
|
|
documentation, which I've sent in a separate message.
