NetRexx 1.125

[Mike Cowlishaw-3]

NetRexx 1.125 is now available.  The changes are:

 * The new 'sourcedir' option requests that all .class files be placed
   in the same directory as the source file from which they are compiled.
   Other output files are already placed in that directory.  Note that
   using this option prevents -run from working unless the source
   directory is the current directory.

 * The new 'explicit' option indicates that all local variables must be
   declared (by assigning them a type but no value) before assigning a
   value to them.

 * Indexed strings are now serializable (can be made persistent).

 * Minor improvements to generated code.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions!

First, thanks Mike! SOURCEDIR is GREAT!


Also...

I finally ftp'ed the high performance compiler beta for java/OS2 from
AlphaWorks and I must say that I am very impressed.

What I'm most happy with is... I don't need all of the source to compile my
works. Life is QUITE nice, working with NetRexx and generating java and native
code for OS/2!

Anyone any suggestions why one might use that option?
