Hello,

I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20150517.tgz In the
Seed7 programming language new statements and operators can be
declared easily. Types are first class objects and therefore
templates/generics need no special syntax. Object orientation is used
when it brings advantages and not in places when other solutions are
more obvious.

Seed7 is covered by the GPL (and LGPL for the Seed7 runtime library).

Changelog:
- Error messages in cli_cmds.s7i have been improved.
- The function getHttp with a httpLocation parameter has been added
  to gethttp.s7i.
- The structure httpRequest in httpserv.s7i has been improved to
  contain a field for the header.
- Documentation comments have been added to the functions
  getAttrValue, getAttributes, getSubNodes and getContent in
  xmldom.s7i.
- The function readXml with a string parameter has been added to
  xmldom.s7i.
- The comanche webserver has been improved to respond with 405
  (Method Not Allowed), when the request method is unknown.
- The check for phaser energy in startrek.sd7 has been improved.
- The function fltSci in flt_rtl.c has been improved to check for
  PRINTF_FMT_E_MAXIMUM_FLOAT_PRECISION.
- Declarations of sqlite3_db_handle() and sqlite3_errmsg() have been
  added to db_lite.h and sql_lite.c.
- The functions assertCompAndLnk and assertCompAndLnkWithOptions
  have been added to chkccomp.c.
- The function numericProperties in chkccomp.c has been improved
  to determine more values from test programs.
- The makefiles have been changed to define the linker options for
  libraries before chkccomp is executed.
- The macro safe_fileno has been added to os_decls.h. This macro
  is used in logging functions to avoid a segmentation violation,
  when a FILE is NULL.
- Calls of logFunction and logError have been added to big_gmp.c,
  big_rtl.c, drw_rtl.c, drw_win.c, drw_x11.c, fil_rtl.c, flt_rtl.c,
  gkb_win.c, gkb_x11.c, int_rtl.c, prg_comp.c, str_rtl.c and
  ut8_rtl.c.

Regards,
Thomas Mertes
