ORCA/C 2.2.0 B5 is now available! (And has been for about a couple weeks now…)

This ORCA/C update contains various enhancements from community members. Changes since ORCA/C 2.2.0 B4 include:

• Support for new language and library features from C99 and C11:
  • The 64-bit integer types long long and unsigned long long
  • The boolean type _Bool and the <stdbool.h> header
  • Generic selection expressions using the _Generic keyword
  • Predefined identifier __func__ giving the function name
  • Floating-point environment access via <fenv.h>
  • Floating-point classification macros in <math.h>
• Floating-point constants and constant expressions are now evaluated with extended precision
• Option for stricter type checking as required by the C standards
• Numerous bugs fixed

For installation instructions, see the readme. For details on what has changed, see the release notes.

This is an update package designed to be installed on top of an existing copy of ORCA/C 2.1 or later.

Also: An updated ORCALib for GNO/ME 2.0.6.

This is an updated version of the ORCALib library suitable for use with GNO 2.0.6. This contains the same updates as the standard ORCALib distributed with ORCA/C 2.2.0 B5, except that under GNO certain portions of the C standard library (such as <stdio.h>) are not included in ORCALib because they are implemented by GNO’s libc. For more information about this GNO version of ORCALib, see the readme.

You should only use this if you are using ORCA/C under GNO. The standard version of ORCALib suitable for use under the ORCA shell is included with the ORCA/C 2.2.0 B5 release.
