ObjectScript Code

re #382: creating branch OBJS382

update release notes

merging OBJS381 back to trunk (fixes #381)

re #381: updated scripts to take advantage of new syntax, and make it work with overloaded methods from a java base class

re #381: updating parser.patch

re #381: and now it works

re #381: super syntax works, although with a slight bug... in the case of functions which do not declare variables, currently no ConstructorScope is created. So functions containing super() need to disable that optimization to make things work properly

re #381: it works, but as it stands currently, it could have some strange effects if you rely on the return of getMember() or lookupInScope(), and createMember() to be the same thing. I think if you had a scenario where you getMember().opAssign() or lookupInScope().opAssign(), it would only update the public mapping (in ScriptObject) and not the private mapping (in ConstructorScope). Although, with the compiler's caching of created members, you probably would not see this behavior all of the time... I think

re #381: qualified "this" syntax is working... the "super" syntax still needs a bit of work

re #381: ok, now implemented in compiler/interpreter, but still needs to be implemented in the Scope classes
