dynamics generated __string check that toString() return an object XmlParser and other APIs for Neko fixed escaped chars in Neko generation conservative static initialization order allowed no type parameters for new Class function types carry parameter names anonymous types contain private variables (for private static accesses) added optional name for anonymous types in typer (for static accesses) private classes and enums (partial support) improved error message for invalid number of arguments flash extern classes can take variable number of args. added -swf-lib for importing SWF library added neko.db package 2005-12-23: alpha 5 added -main commandline parameter catches are now working with Neko restricted catch types for type-safety added constructor inheritance + check if superconstructor is called allowed Dynamic-only subtyping on type parameters added method closures to Neko generation added class Reflect added License : libraries are BSD added -xml documentation output allowed class instance :> anonymous subtyping 2005-12-10: alpha 4 forbid break and continue outside loops fixed SWF generation bugs added SWF "extends" support added method closures added some flash lowlevel operations (__xxx__) added Log, LogInfos and trace added Neko generation fixed problems with conditional compilation macros 2005-11-30: alpha 3 added Flash extern classes Boot initialization added "untyped" added conditional compilation added interfaces changed iterators from closures to objects added (XML)Node and XmlParser for Flash 2005-11-25: alpha 2 swf generation (missing iterators) some typing fixes 2005-11-17: alpha 1b fix some bugs changed package tests.lang 2005-11-14: alpha 1 lexer parser typer
