Objeck 2026.9.0

What's new in 2026.9.0

Objeck Language v2026.9.0
A socket close that stops losing the response on Windows loopback, a language server that
no longer serializes every request behind one lock, and a release pipeline that reports
what it actually did.

What's New in v2026.9.0
- A server that wrote a response and closed could lose all of it. On Windows loopback
the reader got a connection reset and zero bytes — not a short read — even though every
byte had been accepted and delivered. TCPSocket and TCPSecureSocket gain
CloseGracefully(), which reads until the peer hangs up and then closes, so the client
owns the teardown. Measured over 180 transfers of a 16KB response: Close() lost 21,
CloseGracefully() lost none. (#669)
- The language server serialized every request behind one lock. Concurrent analysis
was correct only because of it, with TreeFactory and TypeFactory as process-wide
singletons underneath. They are now bound per thread through an RAII scope guard, so
each analysis gets its own, and the coarse lock gives way to per-program locking.
Concurrent analysis is now a gating regression test rather than something run by hand.
(#659)
- Four publish steps reported success while doing nothing. Sourceforge, the
Marketplace, the playground and the API docs each skipped on an absent credential and
passed — so v2026.8.4 published with all four green while the playground served a
three-month-old engine and objeck.org served the previous release's docs. A missing
credential now fails and names the secret, or is declared manual in one place that also
prints it as a to-do, and a pre-flight gate checks the pipeline can do what it
advertises before the tag is pushed.
- Documentation: docs/windows_loopback_sockets.md listed bounded drains at 100ms and
400ms as having no effect and then recommended a drain bounded at 1000ms. Both are true —
the bound is the variable, not the technique — but the document did not say so and read
as contradicting itself.
Merged: #687, #688, #689, #690, #691
