Hi Eliot,
I don't know if you have done anything further on this,
yes, I added a single method cuxz there's really only the one case, forceNewFileNamed:. So just one more thing to merge when we get to it :)
but thanks! but the attached
is a trivial replacement for CrLfFileStream that can be used in VMMaker
to get rid of the CrLfFileStream dependency and produce <lf> line
terminators in the generated sources.
I tried this in VMMaker, changing the references from CrLfFileStream
to CCodeFileStream, and it seems fine for all the source code generation.
Let me know what approach you are taking and I'll add the same to
VMMaker classic.
HTH,
Dave
