PBD v0.7

v0.7 is out =)

Changelog:

Bugfixes

• Wrong index if multiples changes inside arrays (a588739)
• Null pointer dereferece in hashtable (470fae7)
• Array structure not freed if out of memory (e164cdb)
• Prevent word splitting in run-tests.sh (4218f8d)
• Unwanted fallthrough in static analysis switch statement (8e8b458)
• Parent process should wait for child before reading memory (6ed8e34)
• Suppressing reachable memory leak on Sparse (14fc7d3)
• Wrong first breakpoint in binary build with Clang (a71cca0)

Enhancements

• SIMD versions (SSE2 and AVX2) of offmemcmp: introduces a great speedup in the array searching,
  with performance comparable with glibc memcmp on AVX2 platforms.
• Makefile pretty print
• Benchmarks:
  • Fill Test, in order to address the bugfix a588739
  • Static Analysis Test: tests that stress the static analyzer and checks if PBD is able to detect changes in
    various scenarios.
• Hashtable iterator

Features

• Codacy Support: Automated code quality check
• Static Analysis Support: Thanks to libsparse, PBD now can gracefully find where occurs assignment statements and put breakpoints only where is needed, which in turn, translates into a great speedup in
  the execution time.

PBD v0.6

v0.6 out!

This version brings new features as well as bugfixes too, ;-).

Changelog:

Bugfixes

• Process Hanging If Child Not Killed (ecb0c4f)
• Wrong Glibc Check (1f486cc), which could lead to not usage of process_vm_readv even when available.

Features

• 'Unsafe' options added: options that could lead to wrong output, but with some beneficial things, at the moment:
  • --avoid-equal-statements: PBD will ignore all line statements that are 'duplicated', i.e: belongs to the same liner number, regardless of its address. Although marked as 'unsafe', this option could lead to a huge speedup, depending on the subject being analyzed.
• Enumerations Support (#2): PBD now is able to analyze enums too.
• Lines Context: When enabled (-x/--context ) together with --show-lines, the PBD can print lines before and after the changed line, thus making it easier to see what is happening.
• Syntax Highlighting: When enabled (-c/--color) together with --show-lines, PBD is able to do syntax highlight of the lines changed. This option also works together with --context option.
  • This option also allows themes support, via -t/--theme, see kat for more info.

PBD v0.5

Finally the first release is out \o/, I hope you like.
