Re: Program Counter
Thank you for pointing that out. I'll update the docs accordingly. At the risk of being picky, the writer of the Oberon Compiler for the ARM Processor was Niklaus Wirth. I'm merely modifying the code generator to target other Arm processors. There is no way in the world I could have done that withou...

Re: Conditional Compilation
And this strictly works with BOOLEAN CONSTs only, correct? Correct. It has always been possible to parameterise code in the way you describe - the Conditional Compilation feature just makes it less inefficient than it otherwise would be.

Re: Conditional Compilation
There are four possible combinations for the values of Trace.enabled (TRUE / FALSE) and OtherTrace.enabled (TRUE / FALSE). This is shown by the following hypothetical example. None of the calls to the procedure Eliminated are generated. MODULE Elsif; CONST F1 = FALSE; F2 = FALSE; T1 = TRUE; T2 = TRU...

Conditional Compilation
In the process of testing a module it is often very useful to add diagnostic traces to monitor progress. As these diagnostics are generally only required for development they can be turned off for the release version of the application using various CONST declarations. A new optimisation feature, Co...
