<heading>Version 1.23.0</heading>
<p>A new stable release with many minor bugfices and tweaks.<br />
The main changes however are David Chisnall's work adding support
of the clang compiler and Objective-C 2.0 language/runtime (the
compiler/runtime combination now provides full support for the
Objective-C 2.0 language).<br />
Garbage collection using clang and libobjc2 is now available in
addition to the existing gcc runtime garbage collection support.<br />
Going beyond that, for people who don't like garbage collection,
there is now support for automated reference counting, where the
clang compiler adds reference count calls to manage object lifetimes,
reliveing the application developer from the need to manage reference
counts.
</p>
<p>An important point to note is that this is the last release to
support the gcc-2.9.5 compiler. In future, while releases may work
with older systems, the formal requirement will be a gcc-4.x series
compiler or later and base may also depend on support for the C99
standard being available.<br />
This change is being made in order avoid developers needing to spend
a great deal of time keeping code working for obsolete systems which
are no longer used in practice.
