| |
I've finalised all the documentation that I'm going to do for the 2.4 VM and no further updates will be posted on the web site to this version. At this stage it has been heavily read by a number of people and there hasn't been a complaint or correction in a few weeks now. I'm happy to say it is now complete (and more importantly correct) and acts as a detailed description of the 2.4 VM, the algorithms that it is based on and comprehensive coverage of the code. People who are only interested in the 2.5.x VMs will still find it much easier to follow when they clearly know how 2.4 is put together.
As always, it comes in two parts. The first part is the actual documentation and gives a description of the whole VM. The second is a code commentary which covers a significant percentage of the VM for guiding through the messier parts. They are available in PDF, HTML and plain text formats.

Thanks to all the people who read through it, helped me out and sent encouragement. It's been fun.
