## v0.X.X - XX/XX/2018
### Changes affecting backwards compatibility
#### Breaking changes in the standard library
- The ``[]`` proc for strings now raises an ``IndexError`` exception when
the specified slice is out of bounds. See issue
[#6223](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/6223) for more details.
You can use ``substr(str, start, finish)`` to get the old behaviour back,
see [this commit](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimbot/commit/98cc031a27ea89947daa7f0bb536bcf86462941f) for an example.
- ``strutils.split`` and ``strutils.rsplit`` with an empty string and a
separator now returns that empty string.
See issue [#4377](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4377).
- Arrays of char cannot be converted to ``cstring`` anymore, pointers to
arrays of char can! This means ``$`` for arrays can finally exist
in ``system.nim`` and do the right thing. This means ``$myArrayOfChar`` changed
its behaviour! Compile with ``-d:nimNoArrayToString`` to see where to fix your
code.
- `reExtended` is no longer default for the `re` constructor in the `re`
module.
- The behavior of ``$`` has been changed for all standard library collections. The
collection-to-string implementations now perform proper quoting and escaping of
strings and chars.
- `newAsyncSocket` taking an `AsyncFD` now runs `setBlocking(false)` on the
fd.
- ``mod`` and bitwise ``and`` do not produce ``range`` subtypes anymore. This
turned out to be more harmful than helpful and the language is simpler
without this special typing rule.
- ``formatFloat``/``formatBiggestFloat`` now support formatting floats with zero
precision digits. The previous ``precision = 0`` behavior (default formatting)
is now available via ``precision = -1``.
- Moved from stdlib into Nimble packages:
- [``basic2d``](https://github.com/nim-lang/basic2d)
_deprecated: use ``glm``, ``arraymancer``, ``neo``, or another package instead_
- [``basic3d``](https://github.com/nim-lang/basic3d)
_deprecated: use ``glm``, ``arraymancer``, ``neo``, or another package instead_
- [``gentabs``](https://github.com/lcrees/gentabs)
- [``libuv``](https://github.com/lcrees/libuv)
- [``numeric``](https://github.com/lcrees/polynumeric)
- [``poly``](https://github.com/lcrees/polynumeric)
- [``pdcurses``](https://github.com/lcrees/pdcurses)
- [``romans``](https://github.com/lcrees/romans)
- [``libsvm``](https://github.com/nim-lang/libsvm_legacy)
- [``joyent_http_parser``](https://github.com/nim-lang/joyent_http_parser)
- Proc [toCountTable](https://nim-lang.org/docs/tables.html#toCountTable,openArray[A])
now produces a `CountTable` with values correspoding to the number of occurrences
of the key in the input. It used to produce a table with all values set to `1`.
Counting occurrences in a sequence used to be:
```nim
let mySeq = @[1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
var myCounter = initCountTable[int]()
for item in mySeq:
myCounter.inc item
```
Now, you can simply do:
```nim
let
mySeq = @[1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
myCounter = mySeq.toCountTable()
```
- If you use ``--dynlibOverride:ssl`` with OpenSSL 1.0.x, you now have to
define ``openssl10`` symbol (``-d:openssl10``). By default OpenSSL 1.1.x is
assumed.
- ``newNativeSocket`` is now named ``createNativeSocket``.
- ``newAsyncNativeSocket`` is now named ``createAsyncNativeSocket``
and it no longer raises an OS error but returns an ``osInvalidSocket`` when
creation fails.
- The ``securehash`` module is now deprecated. Instead import ``std / sha1``.
- The ``readPasswordFromStdin`` proc has been moved from the ``rdstdin``
to the ``terminal`` module, thus it does not depend on linenoise anymore.
#### Breaking changes in the compiler
- ``\n`` is now only the single line feed character like in most
other programming languages. The new platform specific newline escape sequence is
written as ``\p``. This change only affects the Windows platform.
- The overloading rules changed slightly so that constrained generics are
preferred over unconstrained generics. (Bug #6526)
- We changed how array accesses "from backwards" like ``a[^1]`` or ``a[0..^1]`` are
implemented. These are now implemented purely in ``system.nim`` without compiler
support. There is a new "heterogenous" slice type ``system.HSlice`` that takes 2
generic parameters which can be ``BackwardsIndex`` indices. ``BackwardsIndex`` is
produced by ``system.^``.
This means if you overload ``[]`` or ``[]=`` you need to ensure they also work
with ``system.BackwardsIndex`` (if applicable for the accessors).
- The parsing rules of ``if`` expressions were changed so that multiple
statements are allowed in the branches. We found few code examples that
now fail because of this change, but here is one:
```nim
t[ti] = if exp_negative: '-' else: '+'; inc(ti)
```
This now needs to be written as:
```nim
t[ti] = (if exp_negative: '-' else: '+'); inc(ti)
```
- The experimental overloading of the dot ``.`` operators now take
an ``untyped``` parameter as the field name, it used to be
a ``static[string]``. You can use ``when defined(nimNewDot)`` to make
your code work with both old and new Nim versions.
See [special-operators](https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#special-operators)
for more information.
- ``yield`` (or ``await`` which is mapped to ``yield``) never worked reliably
in an array, seq or object constructor and is now prevented at compile-time.
### Library additions
- **Added ``sequtils.mapLiterals`` for easier construction of array and tuple literals.**
- Added ``system.runnableExamples`` to make examples in Nim's documentation easier
to write and test. The examples are tested as the last step of
``nim doc``.
- Implemented ``getIoHandler`` proc in the ``asyncdispatch`` module that allows
you to retrieve the underlying IO Completion Port or ``Selector[AsyncData]``
object in the specified dispatcher.
- For string formatting / interpolation a new module
called [strformat](https://nim-lang.org/docs/strformat.html) has been added
to the stdlib.
- The `ReadyKey` type in the selectors module now contains an ``errorCode``
field to help distinguish between ``Event.Error`` events.
- Implemented an `accept` proc that works on a `SocketHandle` in
``nativesockets``.
- Added ``algorithm.rotateLeft``.
- Added ``typetraits.$`` as an alias for ``typetraits.name``.
- Added ``system.getStackTraceEntries`` that allows you to access the stack
trace in a structured manner without string parsing.
- Added ``parseutils.parseSaturatedNatural``.
- Added ``macros.unpackVarargs``.
- Added support for asynchronous programming for the JavaScript backend using
the `asyncjs` module.
- Added true color support for some terminals. Example:
```nim
import colors, terminal
const Nim = "Efficient and expressive programming."
var
fg = colYellow
bg = colBlue
int = 1.0
enableTrueColors()
for i in 1..15:
styledEcho bgColor, bg, fgColor, fg, Nim, resetStyle
int -= 0.01
fg = intensity(fg, int)
setForegroundColor colRed
setBackgroundColor colGreen
styledEcho "Red on Green.", resetStyle
```
### Library changes
- ``echo`` now works with strings that contain ``\0`` (the binary zero is not
shown) and ``nil`` strings are equal to empty strings.
- JSON: Deprecated `getBVal`, `getFNum`, and `getNum` in favour of
`getBool`, `getFloat`, `getBiggestInt`. A new `getInt` procedure was also
added.
- ``rationals.toRational`` now uses an algorithm based on continued fractions.
This means its results are more precise and it can't run into an infinite loop
anymore.
- ``os.getEnv`` now takes an optional ``default`` parameter that tells ``getEnv``
what to return if the environment variable does not exist.
- The ``random`` procs in ``random.nim`` have all been deprecated. Instead use
the new ``rand`` procs. The module now exports the state of the random
number generator as type ``Rand`` so multiple threads can easily use their
own random number generators that do not require locking. For more information
about this rename see issue [#6934](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/6934)
- ``writeStackTrace`` is now proclaimed to have no IO effect (even though it does)
so that it is more useful for debugging purposes.
- ``db_mysql`` module: ``DbConn`` is now a ``distinct`` type that doesn't expose the
details of the underlying ``PMySQL`` type.
- ``parseopt2`` is now deprecated, use ``parseopt`` instead.
### Language additions
- It is now possible to forward declare object types so that mutually
recursive types can be created across module boundaries. See
[package level objects](https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#package-level-objects)
for more information.
- Added support for casting between integers of same bitsize in VM (compile time and nimscript).
This allows to, among other things, reinterpret signed integers as unsigned.
- Custom pragmas are now supported using pragma ``pragma``, please see language
manual for details.
- Standard library modules can now also be imported via the ``std`` pseudo-directory.
This is useful in order to distinguish between standard library and nimble package
imports:
```nim
import std / [strutils, os, osproc]
import someNimblePackage / [strutils, os]
```
### Language changes
- The **unary** ``<`` is now deprecated, for ``.. <`` use ``..<`` for other usages
use the ``pred`` proc.
- Bodies of ``for`` loops now get their own scope:
```nim
# now compiles:
for i in 0..4:
let i = i + 1
echo i
```
- To make Nim even more robust the system iterators ``..`` and ``countup``
now only accept a single generic type ``T``. This means the following code
doesn't die with an "out of range" error anymore:
```nim
var b = 5.Natural
var a = -5
for i in a..b:
echo i
```
- ``atomic`` and ``generic`` are no longer keywords in Nim. ``generic`` used to be
an alias for ``concept``, ``atomic`` was not used for anything.
- The memory manager now uses a variant of the TLSF algorithm that has much
better memory fragmentation behaviour. According
to [http://www.gii.upv.es/tlsf/](http://www.gii.upv.es/tlsf/) the maximum
fragmentation measured is lower than 25%. As a nice bonus ``alloc`` and
``dealloc`` became O(1) operations.
- The compiler is now more consistent in its treatment of ambiguous symbols:
Types that shadow procs and vice versa are marked as ambiguous (bug #6693).
- codegenDecl pragma now works for the JavaScript backend. It returns an empty
string for function return type placeholders.
- Extra semantic checks for procs with noreturn pragma: return type is not allowed,
statements after call to noreturn procs are no longer allowed.
- Noreturn proc calls and raising exceptions branches are now skipped during common type
deduction in ``if`` and ``case`` expressions. The following code snippets now compile:
```nim
import strutils
let str = "Y"
let a = case str:
of "Y": true
of "N": false
else: raise newException(ValueError, "Invalid boolean")
let b = case str:
of nil, "": raise newException(ValueError, "Invalid boolean")
elif str.startsWith("Y"): true
elif str.startsWith("N"): false
else: false
let c = if str == "Y": true
elif str == "N": false
else:
echo "invalid bool"
quit("this is the end")
```
- Pragmas now support call syntax, for example: ``{.exportc"myname".}`` and
``{.exportc("myname").}``
- The ``deprecated`` pragma now supports a user-definable warning message for procs.
```nim
proc bar {.deprecated: "use foo instead".} =
return
bar()
```
### Tool changes
- The ``nim doc`` command is now an alias for ``nim doc2``, the second version of
the documentation generator. The old version 1 can still be accessed
via the new ``nim doc0`` command.
- Nim's ``rst2html`` command now supports the testing of code snippets via an RST
extension that we called ``:test:``::
```rst
.. code-block:: nim
:test:
# shows how the 'if' statement works
if true: echo "yes"
```
