Nightly

Changes to compiler since the September 23rd, 2023 release.

Well this isn't really a nightly build... to avoid racking up minutes we are only building when something changes. Should be close enough.

Release Notes

We are heading for the 7.0.0 release. The major features in this release will be support for c++17 and support for building .NET core images with occil. Implementation is done for both features and the functionality is there, the major holdup as far as a release goes is to finish testing the c++17 changes.

Here is the list of all the changes that have been made since the last release:

fixes #1020, remove ocide links from install script.   Also adds support for latest occil and adds examples to the install directory
update .gitignore, src/dosxclude.lst
adjust the occil tests for compiler not adding .C extention any more
Add capability to figure out an object file has a bad format to objlib
handle . characters in filename, don't add .c extension automatically, pass files with extensions we don't recognize on to the linker
add ifdef to output one ICF file per input file, ifdef out an MSIL function call
compile OCC with c++14 when using OCC to compile
