[Gambas-user] Release of Gambas 1.9.24

[Benoit Minisini]

Hi everybody,

Here a new release of the development version.

The main changes in this version are: 
* Things now should work correctly on a big-endian CPU. Not tested!
* From a Nigel Gerrard's idea, there is a new instruction, PIPE, for using 
named pipes.
* Two new functions, Lsl() and Lsr(), for doing logical shifts.
* The position of the current line in the debugger should be always accurate 
now. 
* The Drag & Drop was fixed in the ListView, TreeView, ScrollView, ColumnView 
and IconView controls. 
* A new property, Window.Controls, for returning a collection of all controls 
located in a window.
* The sqlite driver now automatically switch between sqlite2 and sqlite3. 

And many other bug fixes of course. Don't forget to read the changelog...

WARNING! The bytecode has changed, and so you have to recompile your projects.
  
The syntax of the new PIPE instruction is:

DIM hPipe AS File
hPipe = PIPE <path> FOR [ READ | WRITE ] [ WATCH ]

<path> is the path name of the named pipe.

If the named pipe does not exist, it is automatically created.

Enjoy it!
