[PLT announcement] PLT Scheme v4.1.4
PLT Scheme version 4.1.4 is now available from
http://plt-scheme.org/
* New libraries include `scheme/package' (for nestable static
modules) and `ffi/objc' (support for Objective-C).
* New teaching support includes a "universe.ss" teachpack for
connecting "worlds" over a network.
* Redex now supports automatic test-case generation. Specify a
predicate that should hold of your reduction system, and Redex
will attempt to falsify it. See 'redex-check' in the manual for
more details.
* Improvements to the run-time system include better and more
reliable memory-limit tracking, function contracts that preserve
tail recursion in many cases, native debugging backtraces on
x86_64, and performance improvements.
* Improved libraries include enhancements to `scheme/sandbox',
better handling of zero-sized matches by `regexp-split' and
friends, an `equal<%>' interface for specifying equality on
class instances (and more general support for attaching
properties to interfaces), equality (via `equal<%>') for image
objects, and refinements to `scheme/foreign' to support atomic
operations and function-pointer conversions.
[Note that mirror sites can take a while to catch up with the new
downloads.]
