Hello,

is 0.32 the correct number? The current development version is 0.33; or do you 
use some kind of backport strategy?

Building binaries for Windows - Part I:
==========================================
If have tested the current development version (rev. 866) with the newest GNAT 
for Windows (20150428-49).

There is a linker error:
-------------------------------------------------
gnatlink ghdl_jit.ali -O -g -o ghdl.exe grt-cbinding.o clock.o grt-cvpi.o 
memsegs_c.o win32.o -Wl,--stack,8404992
win32.o: In function `grt_stack_init':
D:/hg/ghdl/src/grt/config/win32.c:65: undefined reference to 
`grt_set_main_stack'
win32.o: In function `ghdl_SEH_handler':
D:/hg/ghdl/src/grt/config/win32.c:170: undefined reference to 
`grt_stack_error_null_access'
D:/hg/ghdl/src/grt/config/win32.c:172: undefined reference to 
`grt_stack_error_memory_access'
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
gnatlink: error when calling C:\Tools\GNAT\2015\bin\gcc.exe
gnatmake: *** link failed.

My last (successful) compile test with GNAT 2015 and GHDL was rev. 856.


Building binaries for Windows - Part II:
==========================================
The docs say it's only possible to compile GHDL for Windows with mcode backend. 
Recently I found
LLVM for Windows. Is it compatible and now possible to build it for LLVM 
backend, too?


Building binaries for Windows - Part III:
==========================================
The winbuild.ps1 script is able to create a zip file (binaries + VHDL packages) 
for the delivery.
.\winbuild.ps1 -CreatePackage -Zip

Shall I create an install script, which is embedded into the zip file?

Possible tasks for such a script:
 - Install (copy into a destination folder; register in PATH)
 - Uninstall (delete folder)
 - Update (remove old files, copy new files)

I think NSIS support is not needed any more. I also looked into WIX (Windows 
Installer XML),
it's nice but a bit too complex for just doing xcopy deployment.

Regards
    Patrick

Subject: [Ghdl-discuss] Next release ?

It has been a long time without a release; meanwhile the support of vhdl
2008 has improved a lot.

So I think this is time for a formal 0.32 release.  I will (re-) branch soon, 
and unless someone is volunteer, I will make binaries.

If you are volunteer for testing or building, do not hesitate to answer to this 
mail!

Tristan.
