@@ -33,6 +33,10 @@ Changes affecting backwards compatibility
- 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.

- Arrays can now be declared with a single integer literal ``N`` instead of a
range; the range is then ``0..N-1``.
- ``macros.dumpTree`` and ``macros.dumpLisp`` have been made ``immediate``,
``dumpTreeImm`` and ``dumpLispImm`` are now deprecated.
- Added ``requiresInit`` pragma to enforce explicit initialization.
- Added ``using statement`` for better authoring domain-specific languages and
OOP-like syntactic sugar.
- Added ``delegator pragma`` for handling calls to missing procs and fields at
compile-time.
- Support for user-defined type classes has been added.
- 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 a new ``delegator pragma`` for handling calls to missing procs and
fields at compile-time.
- The overload resolution now supports ``static[T]`` params that must be
evaluatable at compile-time.
