|
|

|

|
+
|
|

+Three months have passed and we are happy to announce the release
|
|
|
+of Amber 0.11.0!
|

|

|
|
|
+* 13 committers
|
|
|
+* increasing the number of core committers to 25
|
|
|
+* 50 unit tests added to the kernel
|
|

|
|
|
+Since the last release 60 issues were closed, bringing us to 499

|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This release includes a lot of bug fixes, improvements to the
|
|
|
+CLI, as well as a preview of the next IDE, named Helios. Amber
|
|
|
+now also uses a CI server [1].
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To try the Helios, the new IDE, open the helios.html page, or
|
|
|
+evaluate in any other amber page `amber.loadHelios()`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The compiler also received some improvements, especially
|
|
|
+regarding message send optimisations and super sends.
|

|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+There is a lot more to come with Helios, a stepping debugger
|
|
|
+based on the AST is in progress and currently in the 'debugger'
|
|
|
+branch on GitHub.

|

|
|
|
+* Installing Amber from NPM
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To install amber from NPM, run
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ npm install amber
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Migration from Amber 0.10.0
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Amber compiled code should be compatible with Amber 0.10.0, but
|
|
|
+recompiling is needed in order to get contexts working:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Compiler new recompile: (Package named: 'MyPackage') classes.
|
|
|
+ (Package named: 'MyPackage') commit
