Introduzione

AROS Research Operating System è un sistema operativo per il desktop efficiente, leggero e facile da usare, pensato per rendere produttivo e piacevole l'uso del computer. È un progetto autonomo, libero e indipendente dalla piattaforma, pensato per essere compatibile con AmigaOS a livello di API (un po' come Wine, ma non come UAE), ma dotato di caratteristiche più avanzate. Il codice sorgente è distribuito con una licenza open source, che permette a chiunque di migliorarlo come crede.

Distribuzioni

Le distribuzioni sono versioni di AROS controllate, pre-configurate e che includono diverse applicazioni utili che non vengono messe nei buìinari principali di Aros.org. Magari non avranno i file di sistema più recenti, ma la loro stabilità e semplicità d'uso è sicuramente maggiore di quella delle nightly build. Se siete semplicemente incuriositi da che cosa AROS può offrire, le distribuzioni sono fatte apposta per voi!

Novità

May/June 2025 Highlights

Author:	Nick Andrews
Date:	2025-07-03

Nick Andrews did a lot of fixes across the source tree, including:

Datatypes

Implemented a TIFF datatype, and updated the Heic/PNG/Jpeg/WebP code.

C Runtime

Added various widechar/multibyte support functions and unit tests for them, and initial support for locale's. Added scripts and code to download the unicode specifications and generate necessary conversion tables for use by AROS.
Fixed math functions to correctly check bounds, etc - fixes all developer math tests on x86_64.
Fixed build of c++ support code, so it correctly works on x86_64.

gfx.hidd

Added SSE/AVX optimized conversion routines.

Build system

Fixed ARM builds (RasPI, linux-arm and linux-armhf targets).
Updated GCC patches to GCC 15, and fixed the core/contrib & ports to build with it.
Fixed x86_64 stack call alias macros for LLVM, so modules now correctly compile and link that use these functions.
Exposed more LLVM/Clang related settings and options from configure, and fixed up LLVM build scripts (w.i.p - more widechar support needed to complete libc++ build). ~90% of AROS core now compiles with Clang.

Misc

Fixed broken DOS-ReadArgs behaviour, to respect the ReadItem "bug" used on AmigaOS. Unit tests now pass successfully (+ additional test cases added)
Added an early exception handler to help diagnose crashes in the bootstrapping code of AROS x86_64.
Updated Nasm port.
64bit fixes in OpenURL prefs.
Fixed bug in Scouts "timer" list handling, resolving crash due to null pointer access on x86_64.
Add nightly script to parse the localization warnings/errors and upload them to the translators.aros.org site.
Adjusted nightly scripts to use SSH key instead of passwords.
Added script to clean up Unit tests older than 60 days.

Krzysztof Smiechowicz fixed a lot of issues across the whole source code base. He implemented AREXX in Zune and relabeling of volumes in Wanderer's WBRename. He fixed some problems which were caused by icons without files. He made a new release of AxRuntime, a way to run AROS applications under Linux.

Russel Shaw extended the command line parameter handling of Multiview.

Johan Gill improved the m68k port. He implemented a faster PutImageLut().

Stefan Reinauer committed fixes for the CDVDFS file system and the darwin/arm64 build.

Franck Charlet improved the USB MIDI support.
