Added

  • Homebrew formula revamped to support Apple M1 [homebrew-acton#28]
    • Formula now uses brew installed ("system") ghc instead of stack installed
      GHC, which is more idiomatic Homebrew
    • Mac on M1 users, simply do: brew install actonlang/acton/acton
      • Acton will be automatically built from source!
    • No pre-built binary packages ("bottles") as our build environment, which is
      using GitHub Action runners, cannot build those
  • actonc compiler profiles fully implemented [#403]
    • previously, --dev only used to enable RTS debug
    • now, all libraries are compiled twice, for dev and rel, and packaged up into
      libActon_dev and libActon_rel archives
    • dev mode is compiled with debug symbols (-g)
    • release mode is using optimized code (-O3)
    • final program binary is also compiled with the same flags

Fixed

  • The RTS mode using the distributed backend for storing program state is now
    working [#407]
