gbdev/rgbds v0.4.1

on GitHub

The version that brought GBDK support! I mean, brought them our support?

New:

• RGBLINK tries to report more errors at once
• Two-argument ALIGN[] to additionally specify an offset
• Mid-section align directive
• A RGBLINK option to prevent padding its output
• A warning for empty db/dw/dl in ROM sections
• (Overdue) documentation of -MG, -MP, -MT and -MQ
• RGBDS can now be compiled using CMake, if you prefer; note that the Makefile is still the main build method
• RGBDS should be able to be compiled using MSVC now

Deprecations:

• -Wobsolete is now enabled by default! This is not a deprecation, but it should make it easier for you to notice deprecated changes
• *-comments are now deprecated, please use ;-comments instead

Changes:

• Consistently with RGBLINK, RGBASM now allows constants to be referenced prior to their definition (see #496 for details)
• RGBASM ISO 8601 symbols now correctly separate time with colons
• Macro can now have an arbitrary number of arguments; a sanity limit has been arbitrarily set to 99,999, which should be enough for everyone

Fixes:

• Fixed RGBLINK incorrectly computing PC inside LOAD blocks
• Fixed BANK(@) outside of sections crashing RGBASM
• Fixed BANK() of a constant crashing RGBLINK
• Fixed period not being accepted as second character of a label name
• Fixed possible RGBASM crash from an empty input file
• Fixed modulo by 0 crashing RGBLINK
• Fixed user-after-free from errors in INCLUDEd linker scripts
• Fixed 0-byte sections being incorrectly printed in .map files
• Fixed a rare RGBASM hang when deleting symbols
• Fixed uninitialized memory reads with -MT and -MQ
• Fixed incorrect explanation of pop af instruction
• Fixed incorrect reporting of overlapping sections
• Fixed incorrect documentation of unary !
• Fixed documentation not updated regarding behavior of RGBLINK's -t and -w
• Fixed implicitly relying on -fcommon: RGBDS now builds with GCC 10's default configuration
• RGBDS no longer relies on 32-bit int, making it more portable to e.g. DOS

Note for Windows users: The binaries below have been compiled on Windows using MSVC, instead of cross-compiled. No difference has been found after some testing, but if something breaks, please open an issue!
