This enables the test suite to build with the -property switch enabled.
std.cpuid: vendor()/processor() have not been converted to properties in accordance to core.cpuid.
std.xml: Element.text() cannot be a property due to the optional parameter.
Remove use of deprecated typedef from phobos. This mostly consists of changing typedef to alias, and disabling unittests that require typedef. One change to std.registry is needed to work around a bug in typedef (6571).
std.algorithm: defined move with one argument; levenshtein distance generalized to with all forward ranges; take now has swapped arguments
std.array: empty for arrays is now a @property; front and back for a string and wstring automatically decodes the first/last character; popFront, popBack for string and wstring obey the UTF stride
std.conv: changed the default array formatting from "[a, b, c]" to "a b c"
std.range: swapped order of arguments in take
std.stdio: added readln template
std.variant: now works with statically-sized arrays and const data
std.traits: added isNarrowString
* 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The prior version of Phobos has been archived in tags/phobos-2.019 if needed.
Introduced new types AsciiChar, AsciiString, Latin1Char, Latin1String, Windows1252Char, Windows1252 String.
Added new function encodedLength().
Added new function encode().
Deprecated Buffer!
* 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.
