You read it right and it was about time!
Boo 0.9.2 is mostly a maintainance release, yet it introduces a few
new features worth highlighting:
* Unsafe code support including pointer manipulation for richer
interoperability with native code [BOO-1202]
unsafe ptr as long = astruct:
ptr = 0
++ptr
* Generic array/matrix constructors [BOO-1203]
a = array[of int](3) #create an array of 3 ints
m = matrix[of int](3, 3) #create a 3x3 int matrix
* Literal regular expression options [BOO-1237]
/boo/i.IsMatch("BOO") #case-insensitive match
* Boo now runs on medium-trust environments [BOO-1215] (such as Mosso
ASP.NET platform)
* and let's not forget about the -platform switch! Which should let
you debug boo applications in #dev on an x64 machine, right, Justin?
;) [BOO-1216]
On top of the usual bug fixes, this release significantly improves
generated IL, resulting in up to 40% leaner assemblies among other
performance improvements.
