ActiveState announced the release of ActiveTcl 8.5, in conjunction with the official release by the Tcl Core Team of version 8.5.0 of the Tcl dynamic language and the Tk GUI toolkit. Over four years in development, this release is a major advance over earlier versions.
Already based on a high-performance byte-compiled runtime, ActiveTcl 8.5 now runs 10% faster than the previous version, due to bytecode optimizations, object caching and reduced memory usage. Developers will also benefit from richer time and date tools including year-2038 compliance, and a new and simpler module packaging standard. Numerous other changes better integrate existing language features in more cohesive ways.
