1.88.0 - Linux, Windows, & MacOS - 18th Release
- Rebase on upstream 1.88.0
- Added REH archives for Linux and Windows (Fixes #7 )
NOTE: There is a Windows 7-specific minor bug. I tested it on 7, 8.1, and 10, and found it only happens on 7. Very minor and shouldn't impact hardly anyone. If you go to the "About" menu item, and run "Process Explorer" (which is kinda like a mini version of Chromium/Chrome's "Task Manager"), and then you try to close Codium without closing the Process Explorer first, it will cause a crash (although you were closing it anyway, so it isn't that big of a deal). Doesn't happen with other secondary windows as far as I can tell, and it doesn't happen as long as you close the Process Explorer before closing the main application. If anyone notices any more crashes with any other secondary windows, please file an issue/bug! It's very strange, and I think it has something to do with some sort of race condition of the process explorer trying to get the renderer process's state as it is being unloaded from memory. Windows 7 handles heap unloading of .exes differently than Win 8 and above.
> MacOS builds coming soon! - Decided to stop making MacOS builds, sorry.
NOTE: The codium_1.88.0.24096_AVX.deb
is an experimental special build for Linux that uses AVX compiler flags, and my AVX compiler optimized build of Electron 22.3.27 for added speed. It does load noticeably faster.
