Update to 0.20.2
Changelog:
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
All strutils.rfind procs now take start and last like strutils.find with the \
same data slice/index meaning. This is backwards compatible for calls not \
changing the rfind start parameter from its default. (#11487)
In the unlikely case that you were using rfind X, start=N, or rfind X, N, \
then you need to change that to rfind X, last=N or rfind X, 0, N. (This should \
minimize gotchas porting code from other languages like Python or C++.)
On Windows stderr/stdout/stdin are not opened as binary files anymore. Use \
the switch -d:nimBinaryStdFiles for a transition period.
Breaking changes in the standard library
Mac OS X / BSD: TSa_Family is now the uint8 type, so type conversions like \
x.sin_family = uint16 toInt(nativesockets.AF_INET) need to be changed into \
x.sin_family = TSa_Family toInt(nativesockets.AF_INET).

Log message:
Update to 0.20.0
Changelog:
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
shr is now sign preserving. Use -d:nimOldShiftRight to enable the old \
behavior globally.
The isLower, isUpper family of procs in strutils/unicode operating on \
strings have been deprecated since it was unclear what these do. Note that the \
much more useful procs that operate on char or Rune are not affected.
strutils.editDistance has been deprecated, use editdistance.editDistance or \
editdistance.editDistanceAscii instead.
The OpenMP parallel iterator `||` now supports any #pragma omp directive and \
not just #pragma omp parallel for. See OpenMP documentation.
The default annotation is parallel for, if you used OpenMP without \
annotation the change is transparent, if you used annotations you will have to \
prefix your previous annotations with parallel for.
Furthermore, an overload with positive stepping is available.
The unchecked pragma was removed, instead use system.UncheckedArray.
The undocumented #? strongSpaces parsing mode has been removed.
The not operator is now always a unary operator, this means that code like \
assert not isFalse(3) compiles.
getImpl on a var or let symbol will now return the full IdentDefs tree from \
the symbol declaration instead of just the initializer portion.
Methods are now ordinary “single” methods, only the first parameter is \
used to select the variant at runtime. For backwards compatibility use the new \
--multimethods:on switch.
Generic methods are now deprecated; they never worked well.
Compile time checks for integer and float conversions are now stricter. For \
example, const x = uint32(-1) now gives a compile time error instead of being \
equivalent to const x = 0xFFFFFFFF'u32.
Using typed as the result type in templates/macros now means “expression \
with a type”. The old meaning of typed is preserved as void or no result type \
at all.
A bug allowed macro foo(): int = 123 to compile even though a macro has to \
return a NimNode. This has been fixed.
With the exception of uint and uint64, conversion to unsigned types are now \
range checked during runtime.
Macro arguments of type typedesc are now passed to the macro as NimNode like \
every other type except static. Use typed for a behavior that is identical in \
new and old Nim. See the RFC Pass typedesc as NimNode to macros for more \
details.
Breaking changes in the standard library
osproc.execProcess now also takes a workingDir parameter.
std/sha1.secureHash now accepts openArray[char], not string. (Former \
successful matches should keep working, though former failures will not.)
options.UnpackError is no longer a ref type and inherits from system.Defect \
instead of system.ValueError.
system.ValueError now inherits from system.CatchableError instead of \
system.Defect.
The procs parseutils.parseBiggestInt, parseutils.parseInt, \
parseutils.parseBiggestUInt and parseutils.parseUInt now raise a ValueError when \
the parsed integer is outside of the valid range. Previously they sometimes \
raised an OverflowError and sometimes they returned 0.
The procs parseutils.parseBin, parseutils.parseOct and parseutils.parseHex \
were not clearing their var parameter number and used to push its value to the \
left when storing the parsed string into it. Now they always set the value of \
the parameter to 0 before storing the result of the parsing, unless the string \
to parse is not valid (then the value of number is not changed).
streams.StreamObject now restricts its fields to only raise system.Defect, \
system.IOError and system.OSError. This change only affects custom stream \
implementations.
nre’s RegexMatch.{captureBounds,captures}[] no longer return Option or \
nil/"", respectively. Use the newly added n in p.captures method to \
check if a group is captured, otherwise you’ll receive an exception.
nre’s RegexMatch.{captureBounds,captures}.toTable no longer accept a \
default parameter. Instead uncaptured entries are left empty. Use \
Table.getOrDefault() if you need defaults.
nre’s RegexMatch.captures.{items,toSeq} now returns an Option[string] \
instead of a string. With the removal of nil strings, this is the only way to \
indicate a missing match. Inside your loops, instead of capture == "" \
or capture == nil, use capture.isSome to check if a capture is present, and \
capture.get to get its value.
nre’s replace() no longer throws ValueError when the replacement string \
has missing captures. It instead throws KeyError for named captures, and \
IndexError for unnamed captures. This is consistent with \
RegexMatch.{captureBounds,captures}[].
splitFile now correctly handles edge cases, see #10047.
isNil is no longer false for undefined in the JavaScript backend: now it’s \
true for both nil and undefined. Use isNull or isUndefined if you need exact \
equality: isNil is consistent with ===, isNull and isUndefined with ==.
several deprecated modules were removed: ssl, matchers, httpserver, \
unsigned, actors, parseurl
two poorly documented and not used modules (subexes, scgi) were moved to \
graveyard (they are available as Nimble packages)
procs string.add(int) and string.add(float) which implicitly convert ints \
and floats to string have been deprecated. Use string.addInt(int) and \
string.addFloat(float) instead.
case object branch transitions via system.reset are deprecated. Compile your \
code with -d:nimOldCaseObjects for a transition period.
base64 module: The default parameter newLine for the encode procs was \
changed from "\13\10" to the empty string "".
Breaking changes in the compiler
The compiler now implements the “generic symbol prepass” for when \
statements in generics, see bug #8603. This means that code like this does not \
compile anymore:
proc enumToString*(enums: openArray[enum]): string =
# typo: 'e' instead 'enums'
when e.low.ord >= 0 and e.high.ord < 256:
result = newString(enums.len)
else:
result = newString(enums.len * 2)
discard x is now illegal when x is a function symbol.
Implicit imports via --import: module in a config file are now restricted to \
the main package.
Library additions
There is a new stdlib module std/editdistance as a replacement for the \
deprecated strutils.editDistance.
There is a new stdlib module std/wordwrap as a replacement for the \
deprecated strutils.wordwrap.
Added split, splitWhitespace, size, alignLeft, align, strip, repeat procs \
and iterators to unicode.nim.
Added or for NimNode in macros.
Added system.typeof for more control over how type expressions can be deduced.
Added macros.isInstantiationOf for checking if the proc symbol is \
instantiation of generic proc symbol.
Added the parameter isSorted for the sequtils.deduplicate proc.
Added os.relativePath.
Added parseopt.remainingArgs.
Added os.getCurrentCompilerExe (implemented as getAppFilename at CT), can be \
used to retrieve the currently executing compiler.
Added xmltree.toXmlAttributes.
Added std/sums module for fast summation functions.
Added Rusage, getrusage, wait4 to the posix interface.
Added the posix_utils module.
Added system.default.
Added sequtils.items for closure iterators, allows closure iterators to be \
used by the mapIt, filterIt, allIt, anyIt, etc.
Library changes
The string output of macros.lispRepr proc has been tweaked slightly. The \
dumpLisp macro in this module now outputs an indented proper Lisp, devoid of \
commas.
Added macros.signatureHash that returns a stable identifier derived from the \
signature of a symbol.
In strutils empty strings now no longer match as substrings.
The Complex type is now a generic object and not a tuple anymore.
The ospaths module is now deprecated, use os instead. Note that os is \
available in a NimScript environment but unsupported operations produce a \
compile-time error.
The parseopt module now supports a new flag allowWhitespaceAfterColon \
(default value: true) that can be set to false for better Posix \
interoperability. (Bug #9619.)
os.joinPath and os.normalizePath handle edge cases like \
"a/b/../../.." differently.
securehash was moved to lib/deprecated.
The switch -d:useWinAnsi is not supported anymore.
In times module, procs format and parse accept a new optional DateTimeLocale \
argument for formatting/parsing dates in other languages.
Language additions
Vm support for float32<->int32 and float64<->int64 casts was added.
There is a new pragma block noSideEffect that works like the gcsafe pragma block.
added os.getCurrentProcessId.
User defined pragmas are now allowed in the pragma blocks.
Pragma blocks are no longer eliminated from the typed AST tree to preserve \
pragmas for further analysis by macros.
Custom pragmas are now supported for var and let symbols.
Tuple unpacking is now supported for constants and for loop variables.
Case object branches can be initialized with a runtime discriminator if \
possible discriminator values are constrained within a case statement.
Language changes
The standard extension for SCF (source code filters) files was changed from \
.tmpl to .nimf, it’s more recognizable and allows tools like Github to \
recognize it as Nim, see #9647. The previous extension will continue to work.
Pragma syntax is now consistent. Previous syntax where type pragmas did not \
follow the type name is now deprecated. Also pragma before generic parameter \
list is deprecated to be consistent with how pragmas are used with a proc. See \
#8514 and #1872 for further details.
Hash sets and tables are initialized by default. The explicit initHashSet, \
initTable, etc. are not needed anymore.
Tool changes
jsondoc now includes a moduleDescription field with the module description. \
jsondoc0 shows comments as its own objects as shown in the documentation.
nimpretty: –backup now defaults to off instead of on and the flag was \
undocumented; use git instead of relying on backup files.
koch now defaults to build the latest stable Nimble version unless you \
explicitly ask for the latest master version via --latest.
Compiler changes
The deprecated fmod proc is now unavailable on the VM.
A new --outdir option was added.
The compiled JavaScript file for the project produced by executing nim js \
will no longer be placed in the nimcache directory.
The --hotCodeReloading has been implemented for the native targets. The \
compiler also provides a new more flexible API for handling the hot code \
reloading events in the code.
The compiler now supports a --expandMacro:macroNameHere switch for easy \
introspection into what a macro expands into.
The -d:release switch now does not disable runtime checks anymore. For a \
release build that also disables runtime checks use -d:release -d:danger or \
simply -d:danger.

Log message:
Update to 0.19
Changelog:
What’s new in 0.19.0
The nil state for strings/seqs is gone. Instead the default value for these is \
"" / @[]. Use --nilseqs:on for a transition period. This eliminates a \
large class of bugs that used to plague the average Nim code out there, \
including Nim’s standard library.
Accessing the binary zero terminator in Nim’s native strings is now invalid. \
Internally a Nim string still has the trailing zero for zero-copy \
interoperability with cstring. Compile your code with the new switch \
--laxStrings:on if you need a transition period.
These changes to strings and seqs give us more flexibility in how they are \
implemented and indeed alternative implementations are in development.
experimental is now a pragma and a command line switch that can enable specific \
language extensions, it is not an all-or-nothing switch anymore. We think this \
leads to a more robust development process where it’s clearly documented which \
parts of Nim are bleeding edge and which parts can be relied upon.
Other notable language additions:
Dot calls combined with explicit generic instantiations can now be written \
as x.y[:z] which is transformed into y[z](x) by the parser.
func is now an alias for proc {.noSideEffect.}.
Anonymous tuples with a single element can now be written as (1,) with a \
trailing comma.
In order to make for loops and iterators more flexible to use Nim now \
supports so called “for-loop macros”. See the manual for more details. This \
feature enables a Python-like generic enumerate implementation.
Case statements can now be rewritten via macros. See the manual for more \
information. This feature enables custom pattern matching.
The command syntax now supports keyword arguments after the first comma.
Thread-local variables can now be declared inside procs. This implies all \
the effects of the global pragma.
Nim now supports the except clause in the export statement.
Range float types, example range[0.0 .. Inf]. More details in language manual.
Breaking changes to be mindful of
The default location of nimcache for the native code targets was changed. \
Read the compiler user guide for more information.
Lots of deprecated symbols in the standard library that have been deprecated \
for quite some time now like system.expr or the old type aliases starting with a \
T or P prefix have been removed.
The exception hierarchy was slightly reworked, SystemError was renamed to \
CatchableError and is the new base class for any exception that is guaranteed to \
be catchable. This change should have minimal impact on most existing Nim code.
Async improvements
The “closure iterators” that Nim’s async macro is based on has been \
rewritten from the ground up and so async works completely with exception \
handling. Finally it is possible to use await in a try statement!
Nimble 0.9.0
This release includes a brand new version of Nimble. The new version contains a \
breaking change which you should read up on if you own hybrid packages. There \
are also the usual bug fixes and this release contains a lot of them.

0.18.0:
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 for more details. You can use \
substr(str, start, finish) to get the old behaviour back, see this commit for an \
example.
strutils.split and strutils.rsplit with an empty string and a separator now \
returns that empty string. See issue #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 deprecated: use glm, arraymancer, neo, or another package instead
basic3d deprecated: use glm, arraymancer, neo, or another package instead
gentabs
libuv
polynumeric
pdcurses
romans
libsvm
joyent_http_parser
Proc toCountTable 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:
let mySeq = @[1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
var myCounter = initCountTable[int]()
for item in mySeq:
myCounter.inc item
Now, you can simply do:
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:
t[ti] = if exp_negative: '-' else: '+'; inc(ti)
This now needs to be written as:
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 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 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:
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
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 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:
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:
# 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:
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/ \
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:
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.
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:::
.. code-block:: nim
:test:
# shows how the 'if' statement works
if true: echo "yes"
0.17.0:
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
There are now two different HTTP response types, Response and AsyncResponse. \
AsyncResponse’s body accessor returns a Future[string]!
Due to this change you may need to add another await in your code.
httpclient.request now respects the maxRedirects option. Previously \
redirects were handled only by get and post procs.
The IO routines now raise EOFError for the “end of file” condition. \
EOFError is a subtype of IOError and so it’s easier to distinguish between \
“error during read” and “error due to EOF”.
A hash procedure has been added for cstring type in hashes module. \
Previously, hash of a cstring would be calculated as a hash of the pointer. Now \
the hash is calculated from the contents of the string, assuming cstring is a \
null-terminated string. Equal string and cstring values produce an equal hash \
value.
Macros accepting varargs arguments will now receive a node having the \
nkArgList node kind. Previous code expecting the node kind to be nkBracket may \
have to be updated.
memfiles.open now closes file handles/fds by default. Passing \
allowRemap=true to memfiles.open recovers the old behavior. The old behavior is \
only needed to call mapMem on the resulting MemFile.
posix.nim: For better C++ interop the field sa_sigaction*: proc (x: cint, y: \
var SigInfo, z: pointer) {.noconv.} was changed to sa_sigaction*: proc (x: cint, \
y: ptr SigInfo, z: pointer) {.noconv.}.
The compiler doesn’t infer effects for .base methods anymore. This means \
you need to annotate them with .gcsafe or similar to clearly declare upfront \
every implementation needs to fullfill these contracts.
system.getAst templateCall(x, y) now typechecks the templateCall properly. \
You need to patch your code accordingly.
macros.getType and macros.getTypeImpl for an enum will now return an AST \
that is the same as what is used to define an enum. Previously the AST returned \
had a repeated EnumTy node and was missing the initial pragma node (which is \
currently empty for an enum).
macros.getTypeImpl now correctly returns the implementation for a symbol of \
type tyGenericBody.
If the dispatcher parameter’s value used in multi method is nil, a \
NilError exception is raised. The old behavior was that the method would be a \
nop then.
posix.nim: the family of ntohs procs now takes unsigned integers instead of \
signed integers.
In Nim identifiers en-dash (Unicode point U+2013) is not an alias for the \
underscore anymore. Use underscores instead.
When the requiresInit pragma is applied to a record type, future versions of \
Nim will also require you to initialize all the fields of the type during object \
construction. For now, only a warning will be produced.
The Object construction syntax now performs a number of additional safety \
checks. When fields within case objects are initialiazed, the compiler will now \
demand that the respective discriminator field has a matching known compile-time \
value.
On posix, the results of waitForExit, peekExitCode, execCmd will return 128 \
+ signal number if the application terminates via signal.
ospaths.getConfigDir now conforms to the XDG Base Directory specification on \
non-Windows OSs. It returns the value of the XDG_CONFIG_DIR environment variable \
if it is set, and returns the default configuration directory, “~/.config/”, \
otherwise.
Renamed the line info node parameter for newNimNode procedure.
The parsing rules of do changed.
foo bar do:
baz
Used to be parsed as:
foo(bar(do:
baz))
Now it is parsed as:
foo(bar, do:
baz)
Library Additions
Added system.onThreadDestruction.
Added dial procedure to networking modules: net, asyncdispatch, asyncnet. It \
merges socket creation, address resolution, and connection into single step. \
When using dial, you don’t have to worry about the IPv4 vs IPv6 problem. \
httpclient now supports IPv6.
Added to macro which allows JSON to be unmarshalled into a type.
import json
type
Person = object
name: string
age: int
let data = """
{
"name": "Amy",
"age": 4
}
"""
let node = parseJson(data)
let obj = node.to(Person)
echo(obj)
Tool Additions
The finish tool can now download MingW for you should it not find a working \
MingW installation.
Compiler Additions
The name mangling rules used by the C code generator changed. Most of the \
time local variables and parameters are not mangled at all anymore. This \
improves the debugging experience.
The compiler produces explicit name mangling files when --debugger:native is \
enabled. Debuggers can read these .ndi files in order to improve debugging Nim \
code.
Language Additions
The try statement’s except branches now support the binding of a caught \
exception to a variable:
try:
raise newException(Exception, "Hello World")
except Exception as exc:
echo(exc.msg)
This replaces the getCurrentException and getCurrentExceptionMsg() \
procedures, although these procedures will remain in the stdlib for the \
foreseeable future. This new language feature is actually implemented using \
these procedures.
In the near future we will be converting all exception types to refs to \
remove the need for the newException template.
A new pragma .used can be used for symbols to prevent the “declared but \
not used” warning. More details can be found here.
The popular “colon block of statements” syntax is now also supported for \
let and var statements and assignments:
template ve(value, effect): untyped =
effect
value
let x = ve(4):
echo "welcome to Nim!"
This is particularly useful for DSLs that help in tree construction.
Language changes
The .procvar annotation is not required anymore. That doesn’t mean you can \
pass system.$ to map just yet though.

Log message:
Update nim from 0.14.2 to 0.16.0
Upstream changelog
==================
Changelog 0.16.0
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
staticExec now uses the directory of the nim file that contains the \
staticExec call as the current working directory.
TimeInfo.tzname has been removed from times module because it was broken. \
Because of this, the option "ZZZ" will no longer work in format \
strings for formatting and parsing.
Library Additions
Added new parameter to error proc of macro module to provide better error message
Added new deques module intended to replace queues. deques provides a \
superset of queues API with clear naming. queues module is now deprecated and \
will be removed in the future.
Added hideCursor, showCursor, terminalWidth, terminalWidthIoctl and \
terminalSize to the terminal (doc) module.
Added new module distros (doc) that can be used in Nimble packages to aid in \
supporting the OS's native package managers.
Tool Additions
Compiler Additions
The C/C++ code generator has been rewritten to use stable name mangling \
rules. This means that compile times for edit-compile-run cycles are much \
reduced.
Language Additions
The emit pragma now takes a list of Nim expressions instead of a single \
string literal. This list can easily contain non-strings like template \
parameters. This means emit works out of the box with templates and no new \
quoting rules needed to be introduced. The old way with backtick quoting is \
still supported but will be deprecated.
type Vector* {.importcpp: "std::vector", header: \
"<vector>".}[T] = object
template `[]=`*[T](v: var Vector[T], key: int, val: T) =
{.emit: [v, "[", key, "] = ", val, ";"].}
proc setLen*[T](v: var Vector[T]; size: int) {.importcpp: "resize", \
nodecl.}
proc `[]`*[T](v: var Vector[T], key: int): T {.importcpp: "(#[#])", \
nodecl.}
proc main =
var v: Vector[float]
v.setLen 1
v[0] = 6.0
echo v[0]
The import statement now supports importing multiple modules from the same \
directory:
import compiler / [ast, parser, lexer]
Is a shortcut for:
import compiler / ast, compiler / parser, compiler / lexer

Version 0.15.2 released
We're happy to announce that the latest release of Nim, version 0.15.2, is now \
available!
As always, you can grab the latest version from the downloads page.
This release is a pure bugfix release fixing the most pressing issues and \
regressions of 0.15.0. For Windows we now provide zipfiles in addition to the \
NSIS based installer which proves to be hard to maintain and after all these \
months still has serious issues. So we encourage you download the .zip file \
instead of the .exe file! Unzip it somewhere, run finish.exe to detect your \
MingW installation, done. finish.exe can also set your PATH environment \
variable.

Changelog 0.15.0
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
The json module now uses an OrderedTable rather than a Table for JSON objects.
The split (doc) procedure in the strutils module (with a delimiter of type \
set[char]) no longer strips and splits characters out of the target string by \
the entire set of characters. Instead, it now behaves in a similar fashion to \
split with string and char delimiters. Use splitWhitespace to get the old \
behaviour.
The command invocation syntax will soon apply to open brackets and curlies \
too. This means that code like a [i] will be interpreted as a([i]) and not as \
a[i] anymore. Likewise f (a, b) means that the tuple (a, b) is passed to f. The \
compiler produces a warning for a [i]:
Warning: a [b] will be parsed as command syntax; spacing is deprecated
See Issue #3898 for the relevant discussion.
Overloading the special operators ., .(), .=, () now needs to be enabled via \
the {.experimental.} pragma.
immediate templates and macros are now deprecated. Use untyped (doc) \
parameters instead.
The metatype expr is deprecated. Use untyped (doc) instead.
The metatype stmt is deprecated. Use typed (doc) instead.
The compiler is now more picky when it comes to tuple types. The following \
code used to compile, now it's rejected:
import tables
var rocketaims = initOrderedTable[string, Table[tuple[k: int8, v: int8], int64]]()
rocketaims["hi"] = {(-1.int8, 0.int8): 0.int64}.toTable()
Instead be consistent in your tuple usage and use tuple names for named tuples:
import tables
var rocketaims = initOrderedTable[string, Table[tuple[k: int8, v: int8], int64]]()
rocketaims["hi"] = {(k: -1.int8, v: 0.int8): 0.int64}.toTable()
Now when you compile console applications for Windows, console output \
encoding is automatically set to UTF-8.
Unhandled exceptions in JavaScript are now thrown regardless of whether \
noUnhandledHandler is defined. But the stack traces should be much more readable \
now.
In JavaScript, the system.alert procedure has been deprecated. Use dom.alert \
instead.
De-deprecated re.nim because there is too much code using it and it got the \
basic API right.
The type of headers field in the AsyncHttpClient type (doc) has been changed \
from a string table to the specialised HttpHeaders type.
The httpclient.request (doc) procedure which takes the httpMethod as a \
string value no longer requires it to be prefixed with "http" (or \
similar).
Converting a HttpMethod (doc) value to a string using the $ operator will \
give string values without the "Http" prefix now.
The Request (doc) object defined in the asynchttpserver module now uses the \
HttpMethod type for the request method.
Library Additions
Added readHeaderRow and rowEntry to the parsecsv (doc) module to provide a \
lightweight alternative to python's csv.DictReader.
Added setStdIoUnbuffered proc to the system module to enable unbuffered I/O.
Added center and rsplit to the strutils (doc) module to provide similar \
Python functionality for Nim's strings.
Added isTitle, title, swapCase, isUpper, toUpper, isLower, toLower, isAlpha, \
isSpace, and capitalize to the unicode.nim (doc) module to provide unicode aware \
case manipulation and case testing.
Added a new module strmisc (doc) to hold uncommon string operations. \
Currently contains partition, rpartition and expandTabs.
Split out walkFiles in the os (doc) module to three separate procs in order \
to make a clear distinction of functionality. walkPattern iterates over both \
files and directories, while walkFiles now only iterates over files and walkDirs \
only iterates over directories.
Added a synchronous HttpClient in the httpclient (doc) module. The old get, \
post and similar procedures are now deprecated in favour of it.
Added a new macro called multisync allowing you to write procedures for \
synchronous and asynchronous sockets with no duplication.
The async macro will now complete FutureVar[T] parameters automatically \
unless they have been completed already.
Tool Additions
The documentation is now searchable and sortable by type.
Pragmas are now hidden by default in the documentation to reduce noise.
Edit links are now present in the documentation.
Compiler Additions
The -d/--define flag can now optionally take a value to be used by code at \
compile time. (doc)
Nimscript Additions
It's possible to enable and disable specific hints and warnings in Nimscript \
via the warning and hint procedures.
Nimscript exports a proc named patchFile which can be used to patch modules \
or include files for different Nimble packages, including the stdlib package.
Language Additions
Added {.intdefine.} and {.strdefine.} macros to make use of (optional) \
compile time defines. (doc)
If the first statement is an import system statement then system is not \
imported implicitly anymore. This allows for code like import system except echo \
or from system import nil.

Log message: Import nim-0.14.2 as lang/nim Nim (formerly known as "Nimrod") is a statically typed, imperative programming language that tries to give the programmer ultimate power without compromises on runtime efficiency. This means it focuses on compile-time mechanisms in all their various forms. Beneath a nice infix/indentation based syntax with a powerful (AST based, hygienic) macro system lies a semantic model that supports a soft realtime GC on thread local heaps. Asynchronous message passing is used between threads, so no "stop the world" mechanism is necessary. An unsafe shared memory heap is also provided for the increased efficiency that results from that model. Originally packaged in pkgsrc-wip by: - Christian Koch - Roland Illig and - myself. |
