The pragmas have not been as effective as we might have liked, since
they only work with templates and can't tell you where in your code you
need to make changes, and they seemed to have been more annoying to
programmers than helpful, so we're going to discontinue them. We'll
leave them in for stuff that's actually been deprecated until deprecated
has been improved enough to take a message, but we'll leave "scheduled
for deprecation" messages to the documentation and changelog.
- Changed global fixed-length string constants to manifest constants.
- Changed generic functions' parameters from String to Char[] to deal with fixed-length strings.
- Explicitly typed local constants (enums) in dirname().
- Fixed bugzilla 4260: windows & basename.
- Made dirname() tolerant of excess path separators (e.g. "/usr//src").
- Fixed dirname() to deal with Windows' "current directory of a drive" case (e.g. "C:.").
- Made basename() more generic.
- Added more unittests for dirname() and basename().
- Changed version(Win32) to version(Windows) as the module doesn't depend on pointer size.
- Added guard assertion for unknown platforms.
* Transformed std.c.linux.* into wrappers around core.sys.posix modules where appropriate.
* Added std.c.osx as the OSX equivalent of std.c.linux.
* Added std.c.osx.socket for OSX-specific socket declarations not covered by the Posix spec.
* Altered all makefiles to zip, etc, the new std.c.osx package.
* Removed gcstats. Garbage collector statistics will be avaialable in durintime's 'memory' module.
* Removed object.d. This module is replaced by the object.d provided by druntime.
* Removed std.array. To trap an array bounds error, import 'exception' from druntime and catch ArrayBoundsException.
* Removed std.asserterror. To trap an asertion failure, import 'exception' from druntime and catch AssertException.
* Removed std.gc. To interact with the garbage collector, import 'memory' from druntime.
* Removed std.hiddenfunc. No equivalent exception is currently exposed by druntime, but if one is exposed it will be called HiddenFuncException and be declared in 'exception'.
* Removed std.moduleinit. druntime declares ModuleInfo in object.d, so it is implicitly availble without importing.
* Removed std.outofmemory. To trap an out of memory error, import 'exception' from druntime and catch OutOfMemoryException.
* Removed std.switcherr. To trap a switch error, import 'exception' from druntime and catch SwitchException.
* Removed std.synchro. This functionality will exist within druintime.
* Removed std.thread. A Thread class is available within druntime's 'thread' module. An interface comparison will be provided separately.
* Removed std.typeinfo. The classes defined in this package are for runtime use and should not be visible to the user.
The prior version of Phobos has been archived in tags/phobos-2.019 if needed.
* std.contracts: Added file and line information to enforce. Added errnoEnforce that reads and formats a message according to errno. Added corresponding ErrnoException class.
* std.encoding: For now commented out std.encoding.to.
* std.file: Fixed bug 2065
* std.format: Fixed bug in raw write for arrays
* std.getopt: Added new option stopOnFirstNonOption. Also automatically expand dubious option groups with embedded in them (useful for shebang scripts)
* std.math: improved integral powers
* std.md5: Improved signature of sum so it takes multiple arrays. Added getDigestString.
* std.path: changed signatures of test functions from bool to int. Implemented rel2abs for Windows. Improved join so that it accepts multiple paths. Got rid of some gotos with the help of scope statements.
* std.process: added getenv and setenv. Improved system() so it returns the exit code correctly on Linux.
* std.random: added the dice function - a handy (possibly biased) dice.
* std.file: added support for opening large files (not yet tested)
* std.utf: added the codeLength function. Got rid of some gotos.
std.contracts: added functions pointsTo()
std.numeric: minor unittest fixes.
std.bitmanip: fixed code bloat issue, reintroduced FloatRep and DoubleRep.
std.conv: minor simplification of implementation.
std.regexp: added reference to ECMA standard in the documentation.
std.getopt: changed return type from bool to void, error is signaled by use of exceptions.
std.functional: added unaryFun, binaryFun, adjoin.
std.string: updated documentation, changed code to compile with warnings enabled.
std.traits: changed FieldTypeTuple; added RepresentationTypeTuple, hasAliasing; fixed bug 1826; added call to flush() from within write; fixed unlisted bug in lines().
std.algorithm: added map, reduce, filter, inPlace, move, swap, overwriteAdjacent, find, findRange, findBoyerMoore, findAdjacent, findAmong, findAmongSorted, canFind, canFindAmong, canFindAmongSorted, count, equal, overlap, min, max, mismatch, EditOp, none, substitute, insert, remove, levenshteinDistance, levenshteinDistanceAndPath, copy, copyIf, iterSwap, swapRanges, reverse, rotate, SwapStrategy, Unstable, Semistable, Stable, eliminate, partition, nthElement, sort, schwartzSort, partialSort, isSorted, makeIndex, schwartzMakeIndex, lowerBound, upperBound, equalRange, canFindSorted.
std.thread: fixed so it compiles with warnings enabled.
std.file: made getSize() faster under Linux.
std.random: fixed so it compiles with warnings enabled; improved function uniform so it deduces type generated from its arguments.
std.format: added fixes to make formatting work with const data.
std.path: minor documentation changes.
-- add std.getopt
-- add std.variant
-- switch strings over to be invariant rather than const
-- hopefully the last big linux makefile overhaul
-- fix for bug 1579: write[ln] fails for obj.toString()
-- fix negative precision handling in std.format
-- add some file and directory iterator helpers
-- among other little changes here and there...
