Long time no see, long time no bug (until now)

Yesterday we introduced new testcases containing constants to test our arithmetic operations we've implemented so far. Now we have a pretty big new buglist that we've to fix now :)

Well, better test and fix than ship and cry.

The tests revealed severe bugs, for example in our x86.LongOperandTransformationStage class. We're fixing those bugs at the time I'm writing these lines.

Stay tuned, we'll have knocked those bugs done as soon as we can and I'll tell you about it here.

Moving to another testing environment

As XP screwed up itself again I decided to remove it and install Vista in the VM instead.
So now grover and I will be able to compare MOSA's behaviour on XP and Vista.
Shouldn't make any difference at all, since we're not relying on the system underneath (apart from having to use Visual Studio for development).

Furthermore I'll now be able to use Pex (unfortunately there's no version for XP availabe) to generate some more random testcases for MOSA.

Crush'em baby!

Just ran the last update to see how the testcases are doing. And they're doing just fine! In the last few hours we crushed the bugs really hard and put them at a significant loss in the big code battlefield and decimated their army from 48 failed testcases down to 15. We won't give them one minute to rest. We'll go out there, hunt 'em, pursue 'em, annihilate 'em!
Seems that the great victory of 0.1 is within spitting distance!
