=== v1.1.2 === (9 January 2012)
The major new feature in this release is support for "generic" C++
vectorized output; in other words, ispc can emit C++ code that corresponds
to the vectorized computation that the ispc program represents. See the
examples/intrinsics directory in the ispc distribution for two example
implementations of the set of functions that must be provided map the
vector calls generated by ispc to target specific functions.
ispc now has partial support for 'goto' statements; specifically, goto is
allowed if any enclosing control flow statements (if/for/while/do) have
'uniform' test expressions, but not if they have 'varying' tests.
A number of improvements have been made to the code generated for gathers
and scatters--one of them (better matching x86's "free" scale by 2/4/8 for
addressing calculations) improved the performance of the noise example by
14%.
Many small bugs have been fixed in this release as well, including issue
numbers 138, 129, 135, 127, 149, and 142.
