2026-10-30docs(types): explain implicit constructors and raw text literalsHEADmain_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-28docs(overload): document default return selection_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-27docs(preprocessor): document switches and library regions_ov4
Add manuals and aliases for all five PP directives, replace the retired #LIB page, and update compiler and shared-editor architecture notes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-27docs(memory): describe standard-library allocation and explicit imports_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-24docs(overload): document return-type selection across keyword pages_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-24feat(operator): select operator overloads by the expected result type_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-24feat(overload): select overloads by return type as well as parameters_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22feat(input)!: validate INPUT and read whole lines into STRING_ov4
Scalar INPUT now reads one whitespace-delimited token through module-local IR helpers instead of scanf, then skips spaces and tabs and consumes one newline. INTEGER, REAL, BOOLEAN (TRUE or FALSE in any case) and CHAR are validated, and bad input or end of input is a runtime error. STRING INPUT reads the rest of the line. The unused scanf and REAL printf format globals are removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22fix(parser): accept bare NEXT and read its identifier only from the same line_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22feat(codegen): short-circuit AND and OR_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22feat(codegen)!: reject implicit BOOLEAN, CHAR and INTEGER mixing_ov4
Arithmetic and unary minus accept only INTEGER and REAL, AND/OR/NOT need BOOLEAN, comparisons need equal types (or INTEGER with REAL), and only INTEGER converts implicitly to REAL. Use ASC and CHR for characters. No existing test program relied on the now-illegal mixing, so none changed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22fix(classes): defer NEW for DECLARE without a parameterless constructor_ov4
A plain DECLARE, field or array element now calls NEW only when the class has a parameterless one; otherwise the zeroed object waits for x <- NEW C(...), as in guide section 10.2. DECLARE with parentheses still requires a matching constructor. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22fix(codegen): raise a runtime error when a FUNCTION ends without RETURN_ov4
Report the function and its header line, then throw, instead of silently returning zero. FUNCTION MAIN keeps its implicit result. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22fix(arrays): reject inverted bounds and check array allocation_ov4
Constant inverted bounds are a compile error and other bounds are checked at run time. Allocation sizes use overflow-checked arithmetic, and a NULL malloc (including the BYVAL copy) reports that the array is too large. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22feat(output)!: print REAL values in shortest round-trip form_ov4
OUTPUT and NUM_TO_STR now share Python repr formatting instead of %f. BREAKING CHANGE: REAL output changes from six fixed decimals (2.500000) to the shortest round-trip text (2.5). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-22docs: document C-struct records for EXTERN_ov4
Describe which TYPE records count as C structs, passing them by value and by pointer as parameters, RETURNS and variadic arguments, and the recursive pointer types EXTERN accepts. Note the clangCodeGen dependency and the CABI sources in the architecture notes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-21docs: document TEMPLATE_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-20docs(strings): document the embedded standard library and STRING values_ov4

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(runtime): write runtime diagnostics to stderr_ov4
Runtime check messages and the unhandled-exception message were printed to stdout by the generated program, so `cpsc x.cps -r >out.txt` captured them. They are now formatted with snprintf and written with write(2). Test expectations and docs are updated accordingly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

2026-10-17fix(classes): preserve method-only heap objects and document NEW_ov4
Allocate at least one byte for method-only classes so their heap addresses remain usable through pointers. Complete constructor diagnostics, field-order and exception coverage, document construction and rebinding, and highlight NEW. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Verify manual generation, rendered output, relative links, and the TRY example. Record Linux LLVM 18 validation and unverified Windows/macOS support.
