Hello IronPython Community,
It's been several weeks since we released IronPython 1.1.2 RC1 and this build
does not appear to have caused any new issues. As a result I'm pleased to
announce the release of IronPython 1.1.2.
IronPython v1.1.2 is a minor update in which we fixed the most requested
CodePlex bugs and also a handful of trivial bugs. In total twenty-one bugs
have been resolved for 1.1.2. It's worth noting that this included the
implementation of the "_winreg" CPython module and a few performance
improvements in targeted areas. Please also note that there are two potentially
breaking changes in this release:
[PicExportError] * nt.unlink will now throw an exception if the file doesn't
exist, as it does in CPython
[PicExportError] * The signature of IronPython.Runtime.Operations.Ops.Id() has
changed and it now returns an object instead of long. This maps to the id()
function in Python. Note that there is no change for Python caused by this and
only code which is directly calling Ops.Id from a statically typed language
like C# or VB will be affected.
The following CodePlex Work Items were closed:
* 16368 1.1.2: nt.access is missing
* 16402 1.1.2: implement _winreg module
* 15105 1.1.2: endpos is zero in IronPython 1.1.1

* 16337 1.1.2: Trivial: Implement float.__lt__(float)
* 16338 1.1.2: Using lambda in class definition will add <lambda$..> into the
* 16342 1.1.2: calling base class __call__ invokes constructor instead

* 16350 1.1.2: int() doesn't convert representable longs to int

* 16355 1.1.2: unpacking single element tuples in for-statement, listcomp and
generator

arguments
