Version 0.11.0 of picotm has been released today. It includes support for safe type casting and arithmetics. Overflows or underflows of the destination type’s range, or division-by-zero errors result in the rollback of the transaction. Cate is now the official mascot of the picotm project.

Here’s a full list of new features and bug fixes.

  • Cate: Cate is now the official mascot of the picotm project.

  • Safe type casting: The type-casting module provides safe type casting between C types. Overflows and underflows of the destination type’s range result in a rollback of the transaction.

  • Safe arithmetics: The arithmetics module provides safe addition, subtraction, multiplication and division for C types. Overflows, underflows or division-by-zero errors result in the rollback of the transaction.

  • Improved documentation

  • Reworked module interface: The new module interface allows for better sharing of a module’s call-back function. Further led to cleanups of internal data structures and a reduced size of the log entries.

  • Bug fix: Doxygen now generates the documentation for errors involving kern_return_t Mac OS correctly. (#239)

  • Bug fix: Fix memory handling in the TM module that resulted in inconsistent commits. (#240, #241)

picotm 0.11.0 is available for download on the GitHub release page.
