From: randyhyde on 21 Apr 2010 20:48 Hi All, HLA v2.8 is now available on Webster. The download can be found here: http://homepage.mac.com/randyhyde/webster.cs.ucr.edu/HighLevelAsm/dnld.html (or, if you have to type all of that, just go to http://webster.cs.ucr.edu and follow the HLA/HLA downloads links). I've updated the on-line documentation, as well: http://homepage.mac.com/randyhyde/webster.cs.ucr.edu/HighLevelAsm/HLADoc/index.html HLA v2.8 is largely a maintenance release. I've fixed several minor bugs in the HLA compiler and added a new "super" reserved word that lets you invoke parent class methods from a derived class' method. This last item is a big deal for people writing lots of object-oriented assembly code, but most other people will not notice that much of a difference in the HLA compiler. Lots of changes have taken place in the HLA Standard Library, however. Besides the usual minor defect corrections, the big news of the HLA v2.8 release is the addition of the HOWL (HLA Object Windows Library) module. This is a phenomenal new library module that makes Win32 GUI application development in assembly much easier than ever before. This new library is such a huge deal that I'm going to discuss it in a separate post. Along with library changes, there are over 100 new sample programs in the HLA examples download that demonstrate the use of HOWL. For more information about HLA, HOWL, or the Art of Assembly language, visit Webster at http://webster.cs.ucr.edu. Cheers, Randy Hyde
