Log message:
nim: Update to 1.4.0
Changelog extracted from \
https://nim-lang.org/blog/2020/10/16/version-140-released.html
Standard library additions and changes
Added some enhancements to std/jsonutils module.
Added a possibility to deserialize JSON arrays directly to
HashSet and OrderedSet types and respectively to serialize
those types to JSON arrays via jsonutils.fromJson and
jsonutils.toJson procedures.
Added a possibility to deserialize JSON null objects to Nim
option objects and respectively to serialize Nim option object
to JSON object if isSome or to JSON null object if isNone via
jsonutils.fromJson and jsonutils.toJson procedures.
Added a Joptions parameter to jsonutils.fromJson currently
containing two boolean options allowExtraKeys and
allowMissingKeys.
If allowExtraKeys is true Nim’s object to which the JSON
is parsed is not required to have a field for every JSON
key.
If allowMissingKeys is true Nim’s object to which JSON is
parsed is allowed to have fields without corresponding
JSON keys.
Added bindParams, bindParam to db_sqlite for binding parameters
into a SqlPrepared statement.
Added tryInsert,insert procs to db_* libs which accept primary key
column name.
Added xmltree.newVerbatimText support create style’s,script’s
text.
uri module now implements RFC-2397.
Added DOM Parser to the dom module for the JavaScript target.
The default hash for Ordinal has changed to something more
bit-scrambling. import hashes; proc hash(x: myInt): Hash =
hashIdentity(x) recovers the old one in an instantiation context
while -d:nimIntHash1 recovers it globally.
deques.peekFirst and deques.peekLast now have var Deque[T] -> var T
overloads.
File handles created from high-level abstractions in the stdlib
will no longer be inherited by child processes. In particular,
these modules are affected: asyncdispatch, asyncnet, system,
nativesockets, net and selectors.
For asyncdispatch, asyncnet, net and nativesockets, an inheritable
flag has been added to all procs that create sockets, allowing the
user to control whether the resulting socket is inheritable. This
flag is provided to ease the writing of multi-process servers,
where sockets inheritance is desired.
For a transition period, define nimInheritHandles to enable file
handle inheritance by default. This flag does not affect the
selectors module due to the differing semantics between operating
systems.
asyncdispatch.setInheritable, system.setInheritable and \
nativesockets.setInheritable are also introduced for setting file handle or \
socket inheritance. Not all platforms have these procs defined.
The file descriptors created for internal bookkeeping by
ioselector_kqueue and ioselector_epoll will no longer be leaked to
child processes.
strutils.formatFloat with precision = 0 has been restored to the
version 1 behaviour that produces a trailing dot,
e.g. formatFloat(3.14159, precision = 0) is now 3., not 3.
Added commonPrefixLen to critbits.
relativePath(rel, abs) and relativePath(abs, rel) used to silently
give wrong results (see #13222); instead they now use
getCurrentDir to resolve those cases, and this can now throw in
edge cases where getCurrentDir throws. relativePath also now works
for js with -d:nodejs.
JavaScript and NimScript standard library changes:
streams.StringStream is now supported in JavaScript, with the
limitation that any buffer pointers used must be castable to ptr
string, any incompatible pointer type will not work. The lexbase
and streams modules used to fail to compile on NimScript due to a
bug, but this has been fixed.
The following modules now compile on both JS and NimScript:
parsecsv, parsecfg, parsesql, xmlparser, htmlparser and
ropes. Additionally supported for JS is cstrutils.startsWith and
cstrutils.endsWith, for NimScript: json, parsejson, strtabs and
unidecode.
Added streams.readStr and streams.peekStr overloads to accept an
existing string to modify, which avoids memory allocations,
similar to streams.readLine (#13857).
Added high-level asyncnet.sendTo and asyncnet.recvFrom UDP functionality.
dollars.$ now works for unsigned ints with nim js.
Improvements to the bitops module, including bitslices,
non-mutating versions of the original masking functions,
mask/masked, and varargs support for bitand, bitor, and bitxor.
sugar.=> and sugar.-> changes: Previously (x, y: int) was
transformed into (x: auto, y: int), it now becomes (x: int, y:
int) for consistency with regular proc definitions (although you
cannot use semicolons).
Pragmas and using a name are now allowed on the lefthand side of =>.
Here is an example of these changes:
import sugar
foo(x, y: int) {.noSideEffect.} => x + y
# is transformed into
proc foo(x: int, y: int): auto {.noSideEffect.} = x + y
The fields of times.DateTime are now private, and are accessed
with getters and deprecated setters.
The times module now handles the default value for DateTime more
consistently. Most procs raise an assertion error when given an
uninitialized DateTime, the exceptions are == and $ (which returns
"Uninitialized DateTime"). The proc times.isInitialized has been
added which can be used to check if a DateTime has been
initialized.
Fix a bug where calling close on io streams in osproc.startProcess was a \
noop and led to hangs if a process had both reads from stdin and writes (e.g. to \
stdout).
The callback that is passed to system.onThreadDestruction must now be \
.raises: [].
The callback that is assigned to system.onUnhandledException must now be .gcsafe.
osproc.execCmdEx now takes an optional input for stdin, workingDir and env \
parameters.
Added a ssl_config module containing lists of secure ciphers as recommended \
by Mozilla OpSec
net.newContext now defaults to the list of ciphers targeting “Intermediate \
compatibility” per Mozilla’s recommendation instead of ALL. This change \
should protect users from the use of weak and insecure ciphers while still \
provides adequate compatibility with the majority of the Internet.
A new module std/jsonutils with hookable jsonTo,toJson,fromJson operations \
for json serialization/deserialization of custom types was added.
A new proc heapqueue.find[T](heap: HeapQueue[T], x: T): int to get index of \
element x was added.
Added rstgen.rstToLatex a convenience proc for renderRstToOut and \
initRstGenerator.
Added os.normalizeExe.
macros.newLit now preserves named vs unnamed tuples.
Added random.gauss, that uses the ratio of uniforms method of sampling from \
a Gaussian distribution.
Added typetraits.elementType to get the element type of an iterable.
typetraits.$ changes: $(int,) is now "(int,)" instead of \
"(int)"; $tuple[] is now "tuple[]" instead of \
"tuple"; $((int, float), int) is now "((int, float), int)" \
instead of "(tuple of (int, float), int)"
Added macros.extractDocCommentsAndRunnables helper.
strformat.fmt and strformat.& support specifier =. \
fmt"{expr=}" now expands to fmt"expr={expr}".
Deprecations: instead of os.existsDir use dirExists, instead of \
os.existsFile use fileExists.
Added the jsre module, Regular Expressions for the JavaScript target..
Made maxLines argument Positive in logging.newRollingFileLogger, because \
negative values will result in a new file being created for each logged line \
which doesn’t make sense.
Changed log in logging to use proper log level for JavaScript, e.g. debug \
uses console.debug, info uses console.info, warn uses console.warn, etc.
Tables, HashSets, SharedTables and deques don’t require anymore that the \
passed initial size must be a power of two - this is done internally. Proc \
rightSize for Tables and HashSets is deprecated, as it is not needed anymore. \
CountTable.inc takes val: int again not val: Positive; i.e. it can “count \
down” again.
Removed deprecated symbols from macros module, some of which were deprecated \
already in 0.15.
Removed sugar.distinctBase, deprecated since 0.19. Use typetraits.distinctBase.
asyncdispatch.PDispatcher.handles is exported so that an external low-level \
libraries can access it.
std/with, sugar.dup now support object field assignment expressions:
import std/with
type Foo = object
x, y: int
var foo = Foo()
with foo:
x = 10
y = 20
echo foo
Proc math.round is no longer deprecated. The advice to use strformat instead \
cannot be applied to every use case. The limitations and the (lack of) \
reliability of round are well documented.
Added getprotobyname to winlean. Added getProtoByname to nativesockets which \
returns a protocol code from the database that matches the protocol name.
Added missing attributes and methods to dom.Navigator like deviceMemory, \
onLine, vibrate(), etc.
Added strutils.indentation and strutils.dedent which enable indented string \
literals:
import strutils
echo dedent """
This
is
cool!
"""
Added initUri(isIpv6: bool) to uri module, now uri supports parsing ipv6 \
hostname.
Added readLines(p: Process) to osproc.
Added the below toX procs for collections. The usage is similar to procs \
such as sets.toHashSet and tables.toTable. Previously, it was necessary to \
create the respective empty collection and add items manually.
critbits.toCritBitTree, which creates a CritBitTree from an openArray of \
items or an openArray of pairs.
deques.toDeque, which creates a Deque from an openArray.
heapqueue.toHeapQueue, which creates a HeapQueue from an openArray.
intsets.toIntSet, which creates an IntSet from an openArray.
Added progressInterval argument to asyncftpclient.newAsyncFtpClient to \
control the interval at which progress callbacks are called.
Added os.copyFileToDir.
Language changes
The =destroy hook no longer has to reset its target, as the compiler now \
automatically inserts wasMoved calls where needed.
The = hook is now called =copy for clarity. The old name = is still \
available so there is no need to update your code. This change was backported to \
1.2 too so you can use the more readable =copy without loss of compatibility.
In the newruntime it is now allowed to assign to the discriminator field \
without restrictions as long as the case object doesn’t have a custom \
destructor. The discriminator value doesn’t have to be a constant either. If \
you have a custom destructor for a case object and you do want to freely assign \
discriminator fields, it is recommended to refactor the object into 2 objects \
like this:
type
MyObj = object
case kind: bool
of true: y: ptr UncheckedArray[float]
of false: z: seq[int]
proc `=destroy`(x: MyObj) =
if x.kind and x.y != nil:
deallocShared(x.y)
Refactor into:
type
MySubObj = object
val: ptr UncheckedArray[float]
MyObj = object
case kind: bool
of true: y: MySubObj
of false: z: seq[int]
proc `=destroy`(x: MySubObj) =
if x.val != nil:
deallocShared(x.val)
getImpl on enum type symbols now returns field syms instead of idents. This \
helps with writing typed macros. The old behavior for backwards compatibility \
can be restored with --useVersion:1.0.
The typed AST for proc headers will now have the arguments be syms instead \
of idents. This helps with writing typed macros. The old behaviour for backwards \
compatibility can be restored with --useVersion:1.0.
let statements can now be used without a value if declared with \
importc/importcpp/importjs/importobjc.
The keyword from is now usable as an operator.
Exceptions inheriting from system.Defect are no longer tracked with the \
.raises: [] exception tracking mechanism. This is more consistent with the \
built-in operations. The following always used to compile (and still does):
proc mydiv(a, b): int {.raises: [].} =
a div b # can raise an DivByZeroDefect
Now also this compiles:
proc mydiv(a, b): int {.raises: [].} =
if b == 0: raise newException(DivByZeroDefect, "division by zero")
else: result = a div b
The reason for this is that DivByZeroDefect inherits from Defect and with \
--panics:on Defects become unrecoverable errors.
Added the thiscall calling convention as specified by Microsoft, mostly for \
hooking purposes.
Deprecated the {.unroll.} pragma, because it was always ignored by the \
compiler anyway.
Removed the deprecated strutils.isNilOrWhitespace.
Removed the deprecated sharedtables.initSharedTable.
Removed the deprecated asyncdispatch.newAsyncNativeSocket.
Removed the deprecated dom.releaseEvents and dom.captureEvents.
Removed sharedlists.initSharedList, was deprecated and produces undefined \
behaviour.
There is a new experimental feature called “strictFuncs” which makes the \
definition of .noSideEffect stricter. See here for more information.
“for-loop macros” (see the manual) are no longer an experimental \
feature. In other words, you don’t have to write pragma {.experimental: \
"forLoopMacros".} if you want to use them.
Added the .noalias pragma. It is mapped to C’s restrict keyword for the \
increased performance this keyword can enable.
items no longer compiles with enums with holes as its behavior was error \
prone, see #14004.
system.deepcopy has to be enabled explicitly for --gc:arc and --gc:orc via \
--deepcopy:on.
Added the std/effecttraits module for introspection of the inferred effects. \
We hope this enables async macros that are precise about the possible exceptions \
that can be raised.
The pragma blocks {.gcsafe.}: ... and {.noSideEffect.}: ... can now also be \
written as {.cast(gcsafe).}: ... and {.cast(noSideEffect).}: .... This is the \
new preferred way of writing these, emphasizing their unsafe nature.
Compiler changes
Specific warnings can now be turned into errors via --warningAsError[X]:on|off.
The define and undef pragmas have been de-deprecated.
New command: nim r main.nim [args...] which compiles and runs main.nim, and \
implies --usenimcache so that the output is saved to $nimcache/main$exeExt, \
using the same logic as nim c -r to avoid recompilations when sources don’t \
change. Example:
nim r compiler/nim.nim --help # only compiled the first time
echo 'import os; echo getCurrentCompilerExe()' | nim r - # this works too
nim r compiler/nim.nim --fullhelp # no recompilation
nim r --nimcache:/tmp main # binary saved to /tmp/main
--hint:processing is now supported and means --hint:processing:on (likewise \
with other hints and warnings), which is consistent with all other bool flags. \
(since 1.3.3).
nim doc -r main and nim rst2html -r main now call openDefaultBrowser.
Added the new hint --hint:msgOrigin will show where a compiler msg \
(hint|warning|error) was generated; this helps in particular when it’s non \
obvious where it came from either because multiple locations generate the same \
message, or because the message involves runtime formatting.
Added the new flag --backend:js|c|cpp|objc (or -b:js etc), to change the \
backend; can be used with any command (e.g. nim r, doc, check etc); safe to \
re-assign.
Added the new flag --doccmd:cmd to pass additional flags for \
runnableExamples, e.g.: --doccmd:-d:foo --threads use --doccmd:skip to skip \
runnableExamples and rst test snippets.
Added the new flag --usenimcache to output binary files to nimcache.
runnableExamples "-b:cpp -r:off": code is now supported, allowing \
to override how an example is compiled and run, for example to change the \
backend.
nim doc now outputs under $projectPath/htmldocs when --outdir is unspecified \
(with or without --project); passing --project now automatically generates an \
index and enables search. See docgen for details.
Removed the --oldNewlines switch.
Removed the --laxStrings switch for mutating the internal zero terminator on \
strings.
Removed the --oldast switch.
Removed the --oldgensym switch.
$getType(untyped) is now “untyped” instead of “expr”, \
$getType(typed) is now “typed” instead of “stmt”.
Sink inference is now disabled per default and has to enabled explicitly via \
--sinkInference:on. Note: For the standard library sink inference remains \
enabled. This change is most relevant for the --gc:arc, --gc:orc memory \
management modes.
Tool changes
nimsuggest now returns both the forward declaration and the implementation \
location upon a def query. Previously the behavior was to return the forward \
declaration only.

Log message:
nim: Update to 1.2.6
Changelog extracted from the unspecific changelog.md on the 1.2.6 tag.
Unable to get a Changelog diff for 1.2.4 and 1.2.6.
# v1.4.0 - yyyy-mm-dd
## Standard library additions and changes
For `net` and `nativesockets`, an `inheritable` flag has been added to all
`proc`s that create sockets, allowing the user to control whether the
resulting socket is inheritable. This flag is provided to ease the writing of
multi-process servers, where sockets inheritance is desired.
For a transistion period, define `nimInheritHandles` to enable file handle
inheritance by default. This flag does **not** affect the `selectors` module
due to the differing semantics between operating systems.
`system.setInheritable` and `nativesockets.setInheritable` is also introduced
for setting file handle or socket inheritance. Not all platform have these
`proc`s defined.
- The file descriptors created for internal bookkeeping by `ioselector_kqueue`
and `ioselector_epoll` will no longer be leaked to child processes.
- `strutils.formatFloat` with `precision = 0` has been restored to the version
1 behaviour that produces a trailing dot, e.g. `formatFloat(3.14159, precision \
= 0)`
is now `3.`, not `3`.
- `critbits` adds `commonPrefixLen`.
- `relativePath(rel, abs)` and `relativePath(abs, rel)` used to silently give \
wrong results
(see #13222); instead they now use `getCurrentDir` to resolve those cases,
and this can now throw in edge cases where `getCurrentDir` throws.
`relativePath` also now works for js with `-d:nodejs`.
- JavaScript and NimScript standard library changes: `streams.StringStream` is
now supported in JavaScript, with the limitation that any buffer `pointer`s
used must be castable to `ptr string`, any incompatible pointer type will not
work. The `lexbase` and `streams` modules used to fail to compile on
NimScript due to a bug, but this has been fixed.
The following modules now compile on both JS and NimScript: `parsecsv`,
`parsecfg`, `parsesql`, `xmlparser`, `htmlparser` and `ropes`. Additionally
supported for JS is `cstrutils.startsWith` and `cstrutils.endsWith`, for
NimScript: `json`, `parsejson`, `strtabs` and `unidecode`.
- Added `streams.readStr` and `streams.peekStr` overloads to
accept an existing string to modify, which avoids memory
allocations, similar to `streams.readLine` (#13857).
- Added high-level `asyncnet.sendTo` and `asyncnet.recvFrom`. UDP functionality.
- `paramCount` & `paramStr` are now defined in os.nim instead of \
nimscript.nim for nimscript/nimble.
- `dollars.$` now works for unsigned ints with `nim js`
- Improvements to the `bitops` module, including bitslices, non-mutating versions
of the original masking functions, `mask`/`masked`, and varargs support for
`bitand`, `bitor`, and `bitxor`.
- `sugar.=>` and `sugar.->` changes: Previously `(x, y: int)` was transformed
into `(x: auto, y: int)`, it now becomes `(x: int, y: int)` in consistency
with regular proc definitions (although you cannot use semicolons).
Pragmas and using a name are now allowed on the lefthand side of `=>`. Here
is an aggregate example of these changes:
```nim
import sugar
foo(x, y: int) {.noSideEffect.} => x + y
# is transformed into
proc foo(x: int, y: int): auto {.noSideEffect.} = x + y
```
- The fields of `times.DateTime` are now private, and are accessed with getters \
and deprecated setters.
- The `times` module now handles the default value for `DateTime` more \
consistently. Most procs raise an assertion error when given
an uninitialized `DateTime`, the exceptions are `==` and `$` (which returns \
`"Uninitialized DateTime"`). The proc `times.isInitialized`
has been added which can be used to check if a `DateTime` has been initialized.
- Fix a bug where calling `close` on io streams in osproc.startProcess was a \
noop and led to
hangs if a process had both reads from stdin and writes (eg to stdout).
- The callback that is passed to `system.onThreadDestruction` must now be \
`.raises: []`.
- The callback that is assigned to `system.onUnhandledException` must now be \
`.gcsafe`.
- `osproc.execCmdEx` now takes an optional `input` for stdin, `workingDir` and `env`
parameters.
- Added a `ssl_config` module containing lists of secure ciphers as recommended by
[Mozilla OpSec](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS)
- `net.newContext` now defaults to the list of ciphers targeting
["Intermediate \
compatibility"](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS#Intermediate_compatibility_.28recommended.29)
per Mozilla's recommendation instead of `ALL`. This change should protect
users from the use of weak and insecure ciphers while still provides
adequate compatibility with the majority of the Internet.
- A new module `std/jsonutils` with hookable `jsonTo,toJson,fromJson` operations \
for json
serialization/deserialization of custom types was added.
- A new proc `heapqueue.find[T](heap: HeapQueue[T], x: T): int` to get index of \
element ``x``
was added.
- Added `rstgen.rstToLatex` convenience proc for `renderRstToOut` and \
`initRstGenerator`
with `outLatex` output.
- Added `os.normalizeExe`, e.g.: `koch` => `./koch`.
- `macros.newLit` now preserves named vs unnamed tuples; use \
`-d:nimHasWorkaround14720`
to keep old behavior.
- Added `random.gauss`, that uses the ratio of uniforms method of sampling from \
a Gaussian distribution.
- Added `typetraits.elementType` to get element type of an iterable.
- `typetraits.$` changes: `$(int,)` is now `"(int,)"` instead of \
`"(int)"`;
`$tuple[]` is now `"tuple[]"` instead of `"tuple"`;
`$((int, float), int)` is now `"((int, float), int)"` instead of \
`"(tuple of (int, float), int)"`
- Added `macros.extractDocCommentsAndRunnables` helper
- `strformat.fmt` and `strformat.&` support `= specifier`. \
`fmt"{expr=}"` now
expands to `fmt"expr={expr}"`.
- deprecations: `os.existsDir` => `dirExists`, `os.existsFile` => `fileExists`
- Added `jsre` module, [Regular Expressions for the JavaScript \
target.](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions)
- Made `maxLines` argument `Positive` in `logging.newRollingFileLogger`,
because negative values will result in a new file being created for each logged
line which doesn't make sense.
- Changed `log` in `logging` to use proper log level on JavaScript target,
e.g. `debug` uses `console.debug`, `info` uses `console.info`, `warn` uses \
`console.warn`, etc.
- Tables, HashSets, SharedTables and deques don't require anymore that the passed
initial size must be a power of two - this is done internally.
Proc `rightSize` for Tables and HashSets is deprecated, as it is not needed \
anymore.
`CountTable.inc` takes `val: int` again not `val: Positive`; I.e. it can \
"count down" again.
- Removed deprecated symbols from `macros` module, deprecated as far back as `0.15`.
## Language changes
- In newruntime it is now allowed to assign discriminator field without \
restrictions as long as case object doesn't have custom destructor. \
Discriminator value doesn't have to be a constant either. If you have custom \
destructor for case object and you do want to freely assign discriminator \
fields, it is recommended to refactor object into 2 objects like this:
```nim
type
MyObj = object
case kind: bool
of true: y: ptr UncheckedArray[float]
of false: z: seq[int]
proc `=destroy`(x: MyObj) =
if x.kind and x.y != nil:
deallocShared(x.y)
x.y = nil
```
Refactor into:
```nim
type
MySubObj = object
val: ptr UncheckedArray[float]
MyObj = object
case kind: bool
of true: y: MySubObj
of false: z: seq[int]
proc `=destroy`(x: MySubObj) =
if x.val != nil:
deallocShared(x.val)
x.val = nil
```

Log message:
nim: Update to 1.2.0
Changelog:
# v1.2.0 - 2020-04-02
## Standard library additions and changes
- Added overloaded `strformat.fmt` macro that use specified characters as
delimiter instead of '{' and '}'.
- Added new procs in `tables.nim`: `OrderedTable.pop`, `CountTable.del`,
`CountTable.pop`, `Table.pop`.
- Added `strtabs.clear` overload that reuses the existing mode.
- Added `browsers.osOpen` const alias for the operating system specific \
*"open"* command.
- Added `sugar.dup` for turning in-place algorithms like `sort` and `shuffle`
into operations that work on a copy of the data and return the mutated copy,
like the existing `sorted` does.
- Added `sugar.collect` that does comprehension for seq/set/table collections.
- Added `sugar.capture` for capturing some local loop variables when creating a
closure. This is an enhanced version of `closureScope`.
- Added `typetraits.tupleLen` to get number of elements of a tuple/type tuple,
and `typetraits.get` to get the ith element of a type tuple.
- Added `typetraits.genericParams` to return a tuple of generic params from a
generic instantiation.
- `options` now treats `proc` like other pointer types, meaning `nil` proc variables
are converted to `None`.
- Added `os.normalizePathEnd` for additional path sanitization.
- Added `times.fromUnixFloat,toUnixFloat`, sub-second resolution versions of
`fromUnix`,`toUnixFloat`.
- Added `wrapnils` module for chains of field-access and indexing where the LHS
can be nil. This simplifies code by reducing need for if-else branches around
intermediate maybe nil values. E.g. `echo ?.n.typ.kind`.
- Added `minIndex`, `maxIndex` and `unzip` to the `sequtils` module.
- Added `os.isRelativeTo` to tell whether a path is relative to another.
- Added `resetOutputFormatters` to `unittest`.
- Added `expectIdent` to the `macros` module.
- Added `os.isValidFilename` that returns `true` if `filename` argument is valid
for cross-platform use.
- Added `times.isLeapDay`
- `base64` adds URL-Safe Base64, implements RFC-4648 Section-7.
- Added a new module, `std / compilesettings` for querying the compiler about
diverse configuration settings.
- Added `net.getPeerCertificates` and `asyncnet.getPeerCertificates` for
retrieving the verified certificate chain of the peer we are connected to
through an SSL-wrapped `Socket`/`AsyncSocket`.
- Added `browsers.openDefaultBrowser` without URL, implements IETF RFC-6694 \
Section-3.
- Added `jsconsole.trace`, `jsconsole.table`, `jsconsole.exception` for \
JavaScript target.
- Added `distinctBase` overload for values: `assert 12.MyInt.distinctBase == 12`
- Added new module `std/stackframes`, in particular `setFrameMsg`, which enables
custom runtime annotation of stackframes, see #13351 for examples.
Turn on/off via `--stackTraceMsgs:on/off`.
- Added `sequtils.countIt`, allowing for counting items using a predicate.
- Added a `with` macro for easy function chaining that's available everywhere,
there is no need to concern your APIs with returning the first argument
to enable "chaining", instead use the dedicated macro `with` that
was designed for it. For example:
```nim
type
Foo = object
col, pos: string
proc setColor(f: var Foo; r, g, b: int) = f.col = $(r, g, b)
proc setPosition(f: var Foo; x, y: float) = f.pos = $(x, y)
var f: Foo
with(f, setColor(2, 3, 4), setPosition(0.0, 1.0))
echo f
```
- `macros.newLit` now works for ref object types.
- `macro pragmas` can now be used in type sections.
- 5 new pragmas were added to Nim in order to make the upcoming tooling more
convenient to use. Nim compiler checks these pragmas for syntax but otherwise
ignores them. The pragmas are `requires`, `ensures`, `assume`, `assert`, \
`invariant`.
- `system.writeFile` has been overloaded to also support `openarray[byte]`.
- `asyncdispatch.drain` now properly takes into account \
`selector.hasPendingOperations`
and only returns once all pending async operations are guaranteed to have \
completed.
- `sequtils.zip` now returns a sequence of anonymous tuples i.e. those tuples
now do not have fields named "a" and "b".
- `distinctBase` has been moved from `sugar` to `typetraits` and now it is
implemented as compiler type trait instead of macro. `distinctBase` in sugar
module is now deprecated.
- `CountTable.mget` has been removed from `tables.nim`. It didn't work, and it
was an oversight to be included in v1.0.
- `tables.merge(CountTable, CountTable): CountTable` has been removed.
It didn't work well together with the existing inplace version of the same proc
(`tables.merge(var CountTable, CountTable)`).
It was an oversight to be included in v1.0.
- `asyncdispatch.drain` now consistently uses the passed timeout value for all
iterations of the event loop, and not just the first iteration.
This is more consistent with the other asyncdispatch APIs, and allows
`asyncdispatch.drain` to be more efficient.
- `base64.encode` and `base64.decode` were made faster by about 50%.
- `htmlgen` adds [MathML](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/MathML) support
(ISO 40314).
- `macros.eqIdent` is now invariant to export markers and backtick quotes.
- `htmlgen.html` allows `lang` in the `<html>` tag and common valid attributes.
- `macros.basename` and `basename=` got support for `PragmaExpr`,
so that an expression like `MyEnum {.pure.}` is handled correctly.
- `httpclient.maxredirects` changed from `int` to `Natural`, because negative values
serve no purpose whatsoever.
- `httpclient.newHttpClient` and `httpclient.newAsyncHttpClient` added `headers`
argument to set initial HTTP Headers, instead of a hardcoded empty \
`newHttpHeader()`.
- `parseutils.parseUntil` has now a different behaviour if the `until` parameter is
empty. This was required for intuitive behaviour of the strscans module
(see bug #13605).
- `strutils.formatFloat` with `precision = 0` has the same behavior in all
backends, and it is compatible with Python's behavior,
e.g. `formatFloat(3.14159, precision = 0)` is now `3`, not `3.`.
- `times.parse` now only uses input to compute its result, and not `now`:
`parse("2020", "YYYY", utc())` is now \
`2020-01-01T00:00:00Z` instead of
`2020-03-02T00:00:00Z` if run on 03-02; it also doesn't crash anymore when
used on 29th, 30th, 31st of each month.
- `httpcore.==(string, HttpCode)` is now deprecated due to lack of practical
usage. The `$` operator can be used to obtain the string form of `HttpCode`
for comparison if desired.
- `std/oswalkdir` was buggy, it's now deprecated and reuses `std/os` procs.
- `net.newContext` now performs SSL Certificate checking on Linux and OSX.
Define `nimDisableCertificateValidation` to disable it globally.
- `os.walkDir` and `os.walkDirRec` now have new flag, `checkDir` (default: false).
If it is set to true, it will throw if input dir is invalid instead of a noop
(which is the default behaviour, as it was before this change),
`os.walkDirRec` only throws if top-level dir is invalid, but ignores errors for
subdirs, otherwise it would be impossible to resume iteration.
- The `FD` variant of `selector.unregister` for `ioselector_epoll` and
`ioselector_select` now properly handle the `Event.User` select event type.
- `joinPath` path normalization when `/` is the first argument works correctly:
`assert "/" / "/a" == "/a"`. Fixed the edge \
case: `assert "" / "" == ""`.
- `xmltree` now adds indentation consistently to child nodes for any number
of children nodes.
- `os.splitPath()` behavior synchronized with `os.splitFile()` to return \
"/"
as the dir component of `/root_sub_dir` instead of the empty string.
- The deprecated `lc` macro has been removed from `sugar`. It is now replaced \
with the
more powerful `collect` macro.
- `os.relativePath("foo", "foo")` is now `"."`, \
not `""`, as `""` means invalid
path and shouldn't be conflated with `"."`; use \
`-d:nimOldRelativePathBehavior`
to restore the old behavior.
- `os.joinPath(a, b)` now honors trailing slashes in `b` (or `a` if `b` = \
"").
- `base64.encode` no longer supports `lineLen` and `newLine`.
Use `base64.encodeMime` instead.
## Language changes
- An `align` pragma can now be used for variables and object fields, similar
to the `alignas` declaration modifier in C/C++.
- `=sink` type bound operator is now optional. Compiler can now use combination
of `=destroy` and `copyMem` to move objects efficiently.
- Unsigned integer operators have been fixed to allow promotion of the first operand.
- Conversions to unsigned integers are unchecked at runtime, imitating earlier Nim
versions. The documentation was improved to acknowledge this special case.
See https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/175 for more details.
- New syntax for lvalue references: `var b {.byaddr.} = expr` enabled by
`import std/decls`.
- `var a {.foo.}: MyType = expr` now lowers to `foo(a, MyType, expr)` for
non-builtin pragmas, enabling things like lvalue references (see `decls.byaddr`).
## Compiler changes
- Generated JS code uses spaces, instead of mixed spaces and tabs.
- The Nim compiler now supports the ``--asm`` command option for easier
inspection of the produced assembler code.
- The Nim compiler now supports a new pragma called ``.localPassc`` to
pass specific compiler options to the C(++) backend for the C(++) file
that was produced from the current Nim module.
- The compiler now inferes "sink parameters". To disable this for a \
specific routine,
annotate it with `.nosinks`. To disable it for a section of code, use
`{.push sinkInference: off.}`...`{.pop.}`.
- The compiler now supports a new switch `--panics:on` that turns runtime
errors like `IndexError` or `OverflowError` into fatal errors that **cannot**
be caught via Nim's `try` statement. `--panics:on` can improve the
runtime efficiency and code size of your program significantly.
- The compiler now warns about inheriting directly from `system.Exception` as
this is **very bad** style. You should inherit from `ValueError`, `IOError`,
`OSError` or from a different specific exception type that inherits from
`CatchableError` and cannot be confused with a `Defect`.
- The error reporting for Nim's effect system has been improved.
- Implicit conversions for `const` behave correctly now, meaning that code like
`const SOMECONST = 0.int; procThatTakesInt32(SOMECONST)` will be illegal now.
Simply write `const SOMECONST = 0` instead.
- The `{.dynlib.}` pragma is now required for exporting symbols when making
shared objects on POSIX and macOS, which make it consistent with the behavior
on Windows.
- The compiler is now more strict about type conversions concerning proc
types: Type conversions cannot be used to hide `.raise` effects or side
effects, instead a `cast` must be used. With the flag `--useVersion:1.0` the
old behaviour is emulated.
- The Nim compiler now implements a faster way to detect overflows based
on GCC's `__builtin_sadd_overflow` family of functions. (Clang also
supports these). Some versions of GCC lack this feature and unfortunately
we cannot detect this case reliably. So if you get compilation errors like
"undefined reference to `__builtin_saddll_overflow`" compile your \
programs
with `-d:nimEmulateOverflowChecks`.
## Tool changes
- Nimpretty doesn't accept negative indentation argument anymore, because it was
breaking files.

Log message:
Update to 1.0.0
Changelog:
This is a major release containing nearly 60 commits. Most changes are bug \
fixes, but this release also includes a couple new features:
Binaries can now be built and run using the new run command.
The NimblePkgVersion is now defined so you can easily get the package \
version in your source code (example).
Some other highlights:
Temporary files are now kept when the --debug flag is used.
Fixed dependency resolution issues with "#head" packages (#432 and \
#672).
The install command can now take Nim compiler flags via the new --passNim flag.
Command line arguments are now passed properly to tasks (#633).
The test command now respects the specified backend (#631).
The dump command will no longer prompt and now has an implicit -y.
Fixed bugs with the new nimscript executor (#665).
Fixed multiple downloads and installs of the same package (#678).
Nimble init no longer overwrites existing files (#581).
Fixed incorrect submodule version being pulled when in a non-master branch \
(#675).
