Bug fixes and developer stuff only this month.


Bugs Fixed

Display of Array Class objects in Update Mode in Tree display

Jean has fixed a long standing bug so that the node for A class objects shows correctly in update mode as ?DNA not (NULL).


Developers Corner

New BitSet operations

Jean has added some new utils in bitset.h. These include:

  int bitSetAND (BitSet b1, BitSet b2) ;
  int bitSetOR (BitSet b1, BitSet b2) ;
  int bitSetXOR (BitSet b1, BitSet b2) ;
  int bitSetMINUS (BitSet b1, BitSet b2) ;                       /* performs b1 = b1 OPERATOR b2, returns count (b1) */

New vtxt operations

Jean has added some new vtxt calls:

  int vtxtReplaceString (vTXT vtxt, char *a, char *b) ;     /* changes a into b, returns the number of replaced strings */
  int vtxtRemoveBetween (char *txt, char *begin, char *end) ;    /* removes all occurences of begin...end, r
