Qore Programming Language
Qore is a modular, embeddable, multi-threaded, SQL-integrated, weakly-typed scripting language with procedural and object-oriented features, powerful and easy-to-use data types, structures, and operators, and a clean and easy-to-learn/read syntax. Qore supports safe signal handling, exception handling and exception-safe programming, XML and JSON integration as well as TLS/SSL socket support, HTTP, XML-RPC, JSON-RPC communication, easy date arithmetic, strong encryption, and deadlock detection. It was designed for SMP scalability and the C++ library supports easy embedding of Qore logic in external applications.

- 08 Jun 2009 14:53
Changes: This release contains 22 bugfixes from the previous release, including some crashing bugs and potential deadlocks. A few new features are also included. A hash slice can be formed using a list of strings to dereference the hash. TCP_NODELAY can now be set on Sockets and HTTPClient classes and dependent classes. There are some new functions and miscellaneous other improvements.

Changes: This release fixes eight crashing bugs and addresses packaging issues from the previous release. Additionally, terminal attributes may be manipulated with the new TermIOS class and new File methods (with the stdin, stdout, and sterrr constants). The Socket class now supports timeouts on connect*() methods. The File class was extended to support event generation and non-blocking reads. A Portfile is available for MacPorts, supporting building Universal binaries.
