starting to think about 1.1 freeze

Stéphane Ducasse
Hi

we started with the guys here to look at the tests that fail in 1.1.
We started to fix some of them. Now I would like to have a roadmap for freezing 1.1

        - Green tests.
        - No Preferences.
        - What are the key other things that we want to get done in 1.1?

Stef

Re: starting to think about 1.1 freeze

Schwab,Wilhelm K
Stef,

I will soon reach a point of missing a way to do callbacks.  Alien/FFI is listed among the goals, and I would very much like to see that happen, especially if callbacks are well supported as a result.

        Yes alien should be on the list.

Thanks for the reminder.

But what we should *not* do is to delay the release for that. Releases should be a snapshot of what is already done. 1.1 *as it is now* (minus bugs) is already a huge step
forward. If we delay that to make it even better, we will again delay the release for a looong time.

I vote for just defininf 1.1 as what 1.1 is *now* and stabilize it. There will be a 1.2 anyway.

Now I'm fixing some tests if somebody wants to help there are some problems on weak structures.

Stef,

What do you mean by "weak structures?"  Weak collections?

WeakKeyDictionary, to be specific.
To be frank, to me the new implementation in 1.1 seems simply broken.

Cheers,
Henry

Re: starting to think about 1.1 freeze

Schwab,Wilhelm K
Not to be inflammatory, the weak collections have been broken all along.  They are not thread safe, and so cannot hope to be adequately cleaned as objects are finalized.  My efforts to compensate have been aimed at clearing away nils that are left behind.  If the weak collection itself is busted (holds too strongly??), then my additions are not going to help.
