List of all bug fixes and enhancements in D 2.070.0.
Language Changes
- Add syntactic support to make an alias to a function literal.
Example:
alias less1 = (a, b) => a < b; alias less2 = (a, b) => a > b; import std.algorithm : sort, equal; int[] arr = [4, 1, 3, 2]; assert(equal(sort!less1(arr), [1, 2, 3, 4])); assert(equal(sort!less2(arr), [4, 3, 2, 1]));
Library Changes
- The core.sys.windows package has been
greatly expanded.
The core.sys.windows package now contains a considerably more comprehensive set of Windows API bindings. The package has been adapted from Stewart Gordon's bindings, which were originally adapted from the MinGW project.
- TypeInfo.init has been renamed to
TypeInfo.initializer.
The method TypeInfo.init has been renamed to TypeInfo.initializer to resolve a name clash with the type property init.
An alias with the old name was added and will be deprecated over the next releases.
- std.json encodes string control characters.
Instead of throwing a JSONException, toJSON encodes now the control characters of a string.
assert(toJSON(JSONValue("foo\u007fbar")) == `"foo\u007Fbar"`);
