HLA v2.6 is now available

[Randall Hyde]

Hi All,

HLA v2.6 is now available at the usual HLA download site:

Since my last post here, I've added full native object code generation for Mac OS X (which means that HLA now natively compiles code for Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X) and a brand-new "overloads" declaration that lets you create overloaded procedure, method, and iterator calls.  I've also fixed a ton of bugs (especially in ELF code generation).

HLA v2.6 pretty much brings HLA v2.x to a state of "feature completeness." Unless something urgent comes along, I'll be spending my resources and time working on HLA v3.x rather than adding new features to HLA v2.x. Of course, I'll continue to fix defects in the HLA v2.x series.  About the only thing new planned for HLA v2.x (which won't really be of much interest to most PC programmers) is that I intend to try and incorporate HLA v2.x into Apple's XCode environment at some point or another.

In any case, have fun.
Cheers,
Randy Hyde
