This release makes significant improvements in importing
classes and in the SELECT instruction:
* The SELECT instruction now allows a CASE keyword, which
lets an expression be evaluated once and then tested in
each WHEN clause. For example:
i=1
select case i+1
when 1 then say 'one'
when 2 then say 'two'
when 3 then say 'three'
end
See the NetRexx Supplement for details.
* An explicit class import will now disambiguate short
references. For example, after
import java.awt.List
a reference to the class List would refer to that class,
not the class java.util.List (introduced in Java 1.2).
* Several improvements in code generation, including the
treatment of small integers as, for example, type byte
without need for explicit casts.
* The format method in the Rexx class has been corrected
to completely follow the ANSI X3-274 definition and the
NetRexx specification.
