Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

Unreleased

  • Add scratch memory C API functions for auto-released memory on next gc. Scratch memory differs from normal GCed memory as it can also be freed normally for better performance.
  • Add API compatibility checking for modules. This will let native modules not load when the host program is not of a compatible version or configuration.
  • Change signature of os/execute to be much more flexible.

0.6.0 - 2019-05-29

  • file/close returns exit code when closing file opened with file/popen.
  • Add os/rename
  • Update windows installer to include tools like jpm.
  • Add jpm tool for building and managing projects.
  • Change interface to cook tool.
  • Add optional filters to module/paths to further refine import methods.
  • Add keyword arguments via &keys in parameter list.
  • Add -k flag for flychecking source.
  • Change signature to compile function.
  • Add module/loaders for custom loading functions.
  • Add external unification to match macro.
  • Add static library to main build.

  • Add support for dynamic bindings (via the dyn and setdyn functions).
  • Change signatures of some functions like eval which no longer takes an optional environment.
  • Add printf function
  • Make pp configurable with dynamic binding :pretty-format.
  • Remove the meta function.
  • Add with-dyns for blocks with dynamic bindings assigned.
  • Allow leading and trailing newlines in backtick-delimited string (long strings). These newlines will not be included in the actual string value.

0.4.1 - 2019-04-14

  • Fix a number of smaller bugs
  • Added :export option to import and require
  • Added typed arrays
  • Remove callable?.
  • Remove tuple/append and tuple/prepend, which may have seemed like O(1) operations. Instead, use the splice special to extend tuples.

  • Add -c flag to main client to allow compiling Janet modules to images.
  • Add string/format and buffer/format.
  • Remove string/pretty and string/number.

  • Pre-compile core library into an image for faster startup.
  • Add methods to parser values that mirror the api.
  • Add janet_getmethod to CAPI for easier use of method like syntax.
  • Add get/set to abstract types to allow them to behave more like objects with methods.
