Hello! I'm LunaStev, the developer of Wave.

We are very happy to introduce Wave v0.0.7-pre-beta.

This release has previously addressed the issue of infinite recursive and stack overflow due to incorrect ASTNode reuse.

We also changed the name of the Wave compiler binary from wave to wavec.

Wave is growing fast, and we are very excited to share our future plans.

🔧 Bug Fixes

🐛 Fixed else if IR Infinite Loop Bug

  • Resolved a critical bug where stmt was reused inside the else if block IR generation loop
  • Previously caused infinite recursion and stack overflow due to incorrect ASTNode reuse
  • Fixed by replacing stmt with else_if when iterating over else_if_blocks

✨ Other Changes

🛠 Renamed wave to wavec

  • Renamed the Wave compiler binary from wave to wavec
  • This change was made to prepare for the integration of Vex, the official package manager for Wave
  • Separating the compiler tool (wavec) from the language name (Wave) aligns with future plans for Vex integration
