2014-XX-XX Version 0.9.4 released
|

=================================
|
||||
|
||||
2014-XX-XX Version 0.9.4 released
|
||||
=================================
|
||||
|
||||
The Nimrod development community is proud to announce the release of version
|
||||
0.9.4 of the Nimrod compiler and tools.
|
||||
|
||||
This release includes about 1300 changes in total including various bug
|
||||
fixes, new languages features and standard library additions and improvements.
|
||||
This release brings with it support for user-defined type classes, a brand
|
||||
new VM for executing Nimrod code at compile-time and new symbol binding
|
||||
rules for clean templates.
|
||||
It also introduces support for the brand new
|
||||
`Babel package manager <https://github.com/nimrod-code/babel>`_ which
|
||||
has itself seen its first release recently. Many of the wrappers that were
|
||||
present in the standard library have been moved to separate repositories
|
||||
and should now be installed using Babel.
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from that a new **experimental** Asynchronous IO API has been added via
|
||||
the ``asyncdispatch`` and ``asyncnet`` modules. The ``net`` and ``rawsockets``
|
||||
modules have also been added and they will likely replace the sockets
|
||||
module in the next release. The Asynchronous IO API has been designed to
|
||||
take advantage of Linux's epoll and Windows' IOCP APIs, support for BSD's
|
||||
kqueue has not been implemented yet but will be in the future.
|
||||
The Asynchronous IO API provides both
|
||||
a callback interface and an interface which allows you to write code as you
|
||||
would if you were writing synchronous code. The latter is done through
|
||||
the use of an ``await`` keyword which behaves similar to C#'s await. The
|
||||
following is a very simple chat server demonstrating Nimrod's new async
|
||||
capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block::nimrod
|
||||

|
||||

||||

|

await c.send(line & "\c\L")

Library Additions
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Added ``macros.genSym`` builtin for AST generation.
|
||||
- Added ``macros.newLit`` procs for easier AST generation.
|
||||
- Added module ``logging``.
|
||||
- Added module ``asyncdispatch``.
|
||||
- Added module ``asyncnet``.
|
||||
- Added module ``net``.
|
||||
- Added module ``rawsockets``.
|
||||
- Added module ``selectors``.
|
||||
- Added module ``asynchttpserver``.
|
||||
- Added support for the new asynchronous IO in the ``httpclient`` module.
|
||||
|
||||
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- The scoping rules for the ``if`` statement changed for better interaction
|
||||
with the new syntactic construct ``(;)``.
|
||||
- ``OSError`` family of procedures has been deprecated. Procedures with the same
|
||||
name but which take different parameters have been introduced. These procs now
|
||||
require an error code to be passed to them. This error code can be retrieved
|
||||
using the new ``OSLastError`` proc.
|
||||
- ``os.parentDir`` now returns "" if there is no parent dir.
|
||||
- In CGI scripts stacktraces are shown to the user only
|
||||
if ``cgi.setStackTraceStdout`` is used.
|
||||
- The symbol binding rules for clean templates changed: ``bind`` for any
|
||||
symbol that's not a parameter is now the default. ``mixin`` can be used
|
||||
to require instantiation scope for a symbol.
|
||||
- ``quoteIfContainsWhite`` now escapes argument in such way that it can be safely
|
||||
passed to shell, instead of just adding double quotes.
|
||||
- ``macros.dumpTree`` and ``macros.dumpLisp`` have been made ``immediate``,
|
||||
``dumpTreeImm`` and ``dumpLispImm`` are now deprecated.
|
||||
- The ``nil`` statement has been deprecated, use an empty ``discard`` instead.
|
||||
- ``sockets.select`` now prunes sockets that are **not** ready from the list
|
||||
of sockets given to it.
|
||||
- The ``noStackFrame`` pragma has been renamed to ``asmNoStackFrame`` to
|
||||
ensure you only use it when you know what you're doing.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfixes
|
||||
--------
|
||||
Compiler Additions
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- The compiler can now warn about "uninitialized" variables. (There are no
|
||||
real uninitialized variables in Nimrod as they are initialized to binary
|
||||
zero). Activate via ``{.warning[Uninit]:on.}``.
|
||||
- The compiler now enforces the ``not nil`` constraint.
|
||||
- The compiler now supports a ``codegenDecl`` pragma for even more control
|
||||
over the generated code.
|
||||
- The compiler now supports a ``computedGoto`` pragma to support very fast
|
||||
dispatching for interpreters and the like.
|
||||
- The old evaluation engine has been replaced by a proper register based
|
||||
virtual machine. This fixes numerous bugs for ``nimrod i`` and for macro
|
||||
evaluation.
|
||||
- ``--gc:none`` produces warnings when code uses the GC.
|
||||
- A ``union`` pragma for better C interoperability is now supported.
|
||||
- A ``packed`` pragma to control the memory packing/alignment of fields in
|
||||
an object.
|
||||
- Arrays can be annotated to be ``unchecked`` for easier low level
|
||||
manipulations of memory.
|
||||
- Support for the new Babel package manager.

Library Additions
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
Language Additions
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Added ``macros.genSym`` builtin for AST generation.
|
||||
- Added ``macros.newLit`` procs for easier AST generation.
|
||||
- Arrays can now be declared with a single integer literal ``N`` instead of a
|
||||
range; the range is then ``0..N-1``.
|
||||
- Added ``requiresInit`` pragma to enforce explicit initialization.
|
||||
- Exported templates are allowed to access hidden fields.
|
||||
- The ``using statement`` enables you to more easily author domain-specific
|
||||
languages and libraries providing OOP-like syntactic sugar.
|
||||
- Added the possibility to override various dot operators in order to handle
|
||||
calls to missing procs and reads from undeclared fields at compile-time.
|
||||
- The overload resolution now supports ``static[T]`` params that must be
|
||||
evaluable at compile-time.
|
||||
- Support for user-defined type classes has been added.
|
||||
- The *command syntax* is supported in a lot more contexts.
|
||||
- Anonymous iterators are now supported and iterators can capture variables
|
||||
of an outer proc.
|
||||
- The experimental ``strongSpaces`` parsing mode has been implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
Tools improvements
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- The scoping rules for the ``if`` statement changed for better interaction
|
||||
with the new syntactic construct ``(;)``.
|
||||
- ``OSError`` family of procedures has been deprecated. Procedures with the same
|
||||
name but which take different parameters have been introduced. These procs now
|
||||
require an error code to be passed to them. This error code can be retrieved
|
||||
using the new ``OSLastError`` proc.
|
||||
- ``os.parentDir`` now returns "" if there is no parent dir.
|
||||
- In CGI scripts stacktraces are shown to the user only
|
||||
if ``cgi.setStackTraceStdout`` is used.
|
||||
- The symbol binding rules for clean templates changed: ``bind`` for any
|
||||
symbol that's not a parameter is now the default. ``mixin`` can be used
|
||||
to require instantiation scope for a symbol.
|
||||
- ``quoteIfContainsWhite`` now escapes argument in such way that it can be safely
|
||||
passed to shell, instead of just adding double quotes.
|
||||
- ``macros.dumpTree`` and ``macros.dumpLisp`` have been made ``immediate``,
|
||||
``dumpTreeImm`` and ``dumpLispImm`` are now deprecated.
|
||||
- The ``nil`` statement has been deprecated, use an empty ``discard`` instead.
|
||||
- ``sockets.select`` now prunes sockets that are **not** ready from the list
|
||||
of sockets given to it.
|
||||
- The ``noStackFrame`` pragma has been renamed to ``asmNoStackFrame`` to
|
||||
ensure you only use it when you know what you're doing.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Compiler Additions
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- The compiler can now warn about "uninitialized" variables. (There are no
|
||||
real uninitialized variables in Nimrod as they are initialized to binary
|
||||
zero). Activate via ``{.warning[Uninit]:on.}``.
|
||||
- The compiler now enforces the ``not nil`` constraint.
|
||||
- The compiler now supports a ``codegenDecl`` pragma for even more control
|
||||
over the generated code.
|
||||
- The compiler now supports a ``computedGoto`` pragma to support very fast
|
||||
dispatching for interpreters and the like.
|
||||
- The old evaluation engine has been replaced by a proper register based
|
||||
virtual machine. This fixes numerous bugs for ``nimrod i`` and for macro
|
||||
evaluation.
|
||||
- ``--gc:none`` produces warnings when code uses the GC.
|
||||
- A ``union`` pragma for better C interoperability is now supported.
|
||||
- A ``packed`` pragma to control the memory packing/alignment of fields in
|
||||
an object.
|
||||
- Arrays can be annotated to be ``unchecked`` for easier low level
|
||||
manipulations of memory.

Tools improvements
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- c2nim can deal with a subset of C++. Use the ``--cpp`` command line option
|
||||
to activate.
