Ravi (http://ravilang.org) is a dialect of Lua 5.3 with LLVM based JIT
compiler and limited optional static typing.
I am pleased to announce that the alpha 0.15 release of Ravi is now
available.
The principal changes in this release are:
* The changes in 0.14 to allow all Lua functions in a table to be
added to a single LLVM module had introduced a bug - the LLVM module
was not being destroyed in some cases leading to leaked memory. Thanks
to ASAN this was caught while testing.
* The Lua 5.3.2 bug fixes (discussed on Lua mailing list) have been applied.
* Ravi has been updated to work with LLVM 3.8. In this release LLVM
3.7 and 3.8 were tested; 3.6 and 3.5 should still work but has not
been tested.
