     (warning : Some features do not work under Delphi)

  Revision 1.96  2002/09/27 21:13:29  carl
    * low-highval always checked if limit ober 2GB is reached (to avoid overflow)

  Revision 1.95  2002/09/16 09:31:10  florian
    * fixed  currency size

  Revision 1.94  2002/09/09 17:34:15  peter
    * tdicationary.replace added to replace and item in a dictionary. This
      is only allowed for the same name
    * varsyms are inserted in symtable before the types are parsed. This
      fixes the long standing "var longint : longint" bug
    - consume_idlist and idstringlist removed. The loops are inserted
      at the callers place and uses the symtable for duplicate id checking

  Revision 1.93  2002/09/07 15:25:07  peter
    * old logs removed and tabs fixed

  Revision 1.92  2002/09/05 19:29:42  peter
    * memdebug enhancements

  Revision 1.91  2002/08/25 19:25:20  peter
    * sym.insert_in_data removed
    * symtable.insertvardata/insertconstdata added
    * removed insert_in_data call from symtable.insert, it needs to be
      called separatly. This allows to deref the address calculation
    * procedures now calculate the parast addresses after the procedure
      directives are parsed. This fixes the cdecl parast problem
    * push_addr_param has an extra argument that specifies if cdecl is used
      or not

  Revision 1.90  2002/08/18 20:06:25  peter
    * inlining is now also allowed in interface
    * renamed write/load to ppuwrite/ppuload
    * tnode storing in ppu
    * nld,ncon,nbas are already updated for storing in ppu

  Revision 1.89  2002/08/11 15:28:00  florian
    + support of explicit type case <any ordinal type>->pointer
      (delphi mode only)

  Revision 1.88  2002/08/11 14:32:28  peter
    * renamed current_library to objectlibrary

  Revision 1.87  2002/08/11 13:24:13  peter
    * saving of asmsymbols in ppu supported
    * asmsymbollist global is removed and moved into a new class
      tasmlibrarydata that will hold the info of a .a file which
      corresponds with a single module. Added librarydata to tmodule
      to keep the library info stored for the module. In the future the
      objectfiles will also be stored to the tasmlibrarydata class
    * all getlabel/newasmsymbol and friends are moved to the new class

  Revision 1.86  2002/08/09 07:33:03  florian
    * a couple of interface related fixes

  Revision 1.85  2002/07/23 09:51:24  daniel
  * Tried to make Tprocsym.defs protected. I didn't succeed but the cleanups
    are worth comitting.

  Revision 1.84  2002/07/20 11:57:57  florian
    * types.pas renamed to defbase.pas because D6 contains a types
      unit so this would conflicts if D6 programms are compiled
    + Willamette/SSE2 instructions to assembler added

  Revision 1.83  2002/07/11 14:41:30  florian
    * start of the new generic parameter handling

  Revision 1.82  2002/07/07 09:52:32  florian
    * powerpc target fixed, very simple units can be compiled
    * some basic stuff for better callparanode handling, far from being finished

  Revision 1.81  2002/07/01 18:46:26  peter
    * internal linker
    * reorganized aasm layer

  Revision 1.80  2002/07/01 16:23:54  peter
    * cg64 patch
    * basics for currency
    * asnode updates for class and interface (not finished)

  Revision 1.79  2002/05/18 13:34:18  peter
    * readded missing revisions

  Revision 1.78  2002/05/16 19:46:44  carl
  + defines.inc -> fpcdefs.inc to avoid conflicts if compiling by hand
  + try to fix temp allocation (still in ifdef)
  + generic constructor calls
  + start of tassembler / tmodulebase class cleanup

  Revision 1.76  2002/05/12 16:53:10  peter
    * moved entry and exitcode to ncgutil and cgobj
    * foreach gets extra argument for passing local data to the
      iterator function
    * -CR checks also class typecasts at runtime by changing them
      into as
    * fixed compiler to cycle with the -CR option
    * fixed stabs with elf writer, finally the global variables can
      be watched
    * removed a lot of routines from cga unit and replaced them by
      calls to cgobj
    * u32bit-s32bit updates for and,or,xor nodes. When one element is
      u32bit then the other is typecasted also to u32bit without giving
      a rangecheck warning/error.
    * fixed pascal calling method with reversing also the high tree in
      the parast, detected by tcalcst3 test

  Revision 1.75  2002/04/25 20:16:39  peter
    * moved more routines from cga/n386util

  Revision 1.74  2002/04/23 19:16:35  peter
    * add pinline unit that inserts compiler supported functions using
      one or more statements
    * moved finalize and setlength from ninl to pinline

  Revision 1.73  2002/04/21 19:02:05  peter
    * removed newn and disposen nodes, the code is now directly
      inlined from pexpr
    * -an option that will write the secondpass nodes to the .s file, this
      requires EXTDEBUG define to actually write the info
    * fixed various internal errors and crashes due recent code changes

  Revision 1.72  2002/04/20 21:32:25  carl
  + generic FPC_CHECKPOINTER
  + first parameter offset in stack now portable
  * rename some constants
