[0.3.0] - 2016-08-26

Fixed

  • Check for Main.create before reachability analysis.
  • Interface subtyping need not be invariant on type args.
  • @fowles: handle regex empty match.
  • @Praetonus: readline history handling.
  • Put unbox constructors on machine words into the vtable.
  • @jonas-l: parse URL with omitted password.
  • Adjust for ephemerality in cap_single().
  • Finalisation always occurs.
  • Type checking platform dependent FFI declarations on all platforms.
  • Interface subtyping takes receiver capabilities into account.
  • Pony-as-library support, particularly pony_register_thread().
  • Bug in HashMap._search.
  • Crashing gc bug caused by "force freeing" objects with finalizers.
  • Bug in String.compare and String.compare_sub.
  • Crashing gc bug from using get instead of getorput in gc_markactor.
  • Add -rpath to the link command for library paths
  • Simplify contains() method on HashMap.
  • Lambda captures use the alias of the expression type.
  • Trace boxed primitives in union types.
  • Use -isystem for LLVM include directory only if it is not in search path.
  • Union tuples as return type with machine words (issue #849)
  • Incorrect " handling in character literals
  • Incorrect ' handling in string literals
  • Compiler crash on type alias of a lambda type.
  • Late detection of errors silently emitted in lexer/parser.
  • Compiler crash when handling invalid lambda return types
  • Memory leak fixed when something sent as iso is then sent as val.
  • Compiler crash when handling object literal with uninitialized fields.
  • Associate a nice name with function types based on the type of the function.
  • Use the nice name for types when generating documentation.
  • Compiler crash when generating C library for the exported actors containing functions with variadic return type contatining None
  • AST Printing of string literals with quote characters.
  • HTTP/1.1 connections are now persistent by default.
  • Runtime crash when Main.create is a function instead of a constructor.
  • Compiler bug where as operator with a lambda literal caused seg fault.
  • String.read_int failure on lowest number in the range of signed integers.
  • Regex incorrect of len variable when PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY is encountered.
  • No longer silently ignores lib paths containing parens on Windows.
  • Make linking more dynamic and allow for overriding linker and linker arch.
  • Fix issue with creating hex and octal strings if precision was specified.
  • Correctly parses Windows 10 SDK versions, and includes new UCRT library when linking with Windows 10 SDK.
  • Performance of Array.append and Array.concat (no unnecessary calls to push).
  • Performance of Map.upsert and Map.update (don't replace existing keys)
  • Segmentation fault from allocating zero-sized struct.
  • Segmentation fault from serialising zero-sized array.
  • Assertion failure from type-checking in invalid programs.
  • Make the offset parameter of String.rfind inclusive of the given index.

Changed

  • Interfaces are invariant if they are structurally equivalent.
  • Improved type checking with configuration management.
  • Improved realloc behaviour after heap_alloc_large.
  • Set-based upper bounds for generic constraints.
  • Moved the position of a default capability in a type specification.
  • Replaced '&' with 'addressof' for taking address in FFI calls.
  • @jemc: use half-open ranges for String operations.
  • Improved TCPConnection with a dynamically size of buffers
  • Drop dynamic LTO detection in the build system.
  • Parameterized Array.find and Array.rfind with a comparator.
  • this-> adapted types check match on the upper bounds.
  • Renamed identityof to digestof.
  • Moved and renamed net/Buffer to buffered/Reader and buffered/Writer.
  • Print compiler error and info messages to stderr instead of stdout.
  • Hashmap.concat now returns this rather than None
  • Only allow single, internal underscores in numeric literals.
  • ponyc --version now includes the build type (debug/release) in its output.
