Breaking Changes

Breaking the API is sometimes inevitable, what to do?

• See Breaking Changes Guide, which is now part of AsmJit documentation
• See asmjit tests, they always compile and provide implementation of many use-cases:
  • asmjit_test_emitters.cpp - Tests that demonstrate the purpose of emitters
  • asmjit_test_assembler_x86.cpp - Tests targeting AsmJit's Assembler (x86/x64)
  • asmjit_test_compiler_x86.cpp - Tests targeting AsmJit's Compiler (x86/x64)
  • asmjit_test_instinfo.cpp - Tests that query instruction information
  • asmjit_test_x86_sections.cpp - Multiple sections test.
