1) not sure what is your issue, some example? (is it about doing few more keystrokes while writing source? That can be it, as that is usually very low priority for me, as that is usually very small part of SW development - compared to reading and debugging)Сообщение от krt17
2) why changes? Because v1.10.4 is too bugged and it's lacking some functions I need for my own projects.
If you by some luck managed to have working source in older version - my respect! - you can still use the older binary to assemble that particular old source, if you don't want to update it.
For new projects you can decide yourself, but I had huge issues with v1.10.4 when I tried to use it somewhat more, beyond trivial instruction assembling. More than half of the examples from documentation didn't work as it was described, and some features of sjasmplus were not described in documentation at all, so I was not even sure if those were bugs or secret features.
But in the end it is very simple. I need assembler for my own projects, and my idea of good assembler is something reliable and predictable - so I don't have to babysit the assembler itself checking the resulting machine code, and I can focus on my programming and debugging my bugs. V1.10.4 was very far from this goal, unfortunately. Originally I did want just to add Next instructions and few more small changes, but then I did read through the source of it, and there was some kind of bug and inaccuracy almost everywhere. So instead of few changes I spend months (!) just fixing it.
I still put backward compatibility as very high priority item, and I believe, considering I made 300+ commits already, I broke minimal amount of old things. But at some points I had some reasons to believe the change is better option.
In case of MAP removal it was mostly it's poor implementation and lack of documentation (and I still believe STRUCT is as good), so instead of spending another week fixing MAP, I removed it (I was keeping it "as is" as long as it was possible, but due to it's implementation it was getting into my way too much lately, clashing with planned changes, and fixing it was too much of work).
Sorry. Still thank you for this feedback, I'm actually surprised anyone was using MAP in their projects, when I was asking in the cz/sk community, nobody had it (but each of us is very different, some prefer EQU and manual adjusting of everything, some write code generators in JavaScript and I did want functional STRUCT producing correct machine code...). So it's good to know this change was more problematic then I expected.
