Quex 0.69.2 Release Notes:
(0.69.1 is left out)
NOTE: This release is a *major* step in terms of maturity. Quex now builds
a complete code base (source package) by default. It does no longer
rely on naming via macros.
The API has undergone major changes. Currently, the documentation does
not reflect that, but the files in the 'demo' subdirectories still work
as the major introduction.
NEW:
-- Avoid Macro based code generation.
-- Quex generates the complete code base.
-- Separate 'libQuex' and 'libLexeme'.
-- BadLexatom detection improved.
-- Configuration via compile macro definitions or 'CMake' files.
-- CMakeLists.txt files for many examples
-- Option '--no-count' to disable line and column counting at once.
-- Setting and Option parameters have been cleaned up.
=> optional '--config-by-cmake' and '--config-by-macros'
-- fallback number is determined by Quex.
Macro replaced by 'buffer._fallback_n' set upon mode entry.
-- removed default namespace 'quex'
-- refactored lexeme converter helper functions
-- removal of macro-generated code
-- exclusive encoding converter command line options
-- Demos updated
-- Demo for include push/pop simplified
-- Source packaging by default
-- Unification of interface C/Cpp
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.68.2 Release Notes:
-- Streamlined design of user callbacks 'on_buffer_change' and
'on_buffer_overflow'.
-- Helper functions to migrate buffer or extend it during running analysis.
-- Default implementation for buffer extension upon buffer overflow.
-- Fix of subtle bug with tiny buffer sizes upon reload and pre-conditions.
(UTs implemented to detect issues of that kind and possible related issues)
-- Refactoring of buffer load and navigation.
-- Arbitrary backward lexical analysis even beyond buffer's borders.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.68.1 Release Notes:
NEW: -- keywords 'brief' and 'kewords' in mode section
(see 'demo/*/05-LexerForC' for example usage.)
-- 'on_buffer_before_change' and 'on_buffer_overflow' event
handlers in mode section
-- 'ByteLoader_Probe' which can inhabit ByteLoaders to monitor
and influence their behavior.
CHANGE: -- Cut/Contatenate Arithmetic of the monoid.
-- Work towards complete removal of exceptions.
-- Improved error flags manipulation.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.67.3-5 Release Notes:
CHANGES: -- Removed Accumulator and PostCategorizer from the code generator.
-- Removed options for above.
-- Code for above remains present in 'code_base/extra'. That is,
they may still be used.
-- Renamed command line options '--codec*' to '--encoding*'
-- Lexeme converters have been refactor to work more generally.
-- Token class in C++, now also depends only on 'char' not 'std::string'.
The later has become a significant performance drain in some
situations.
-- Bug fixes: 298, 299, 300.
-- Cleaning up.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.67.2 Release Notes:
NEW FEATURES:
-- 'print_this()' function has been completed so that state of all
components is printed properly.
CHANGES:
-- Extract further dependency of 'converter' from lexical analyzer
main engine.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.67.1 Release Notes:
NEW FEATURES:
-- Buffer split upon include: Upon include the unused part
of an including buffer may be used for the content of the
included buffer.
=> Massive memory usage reduction in extensive include
scenarios
-- Cleansening of the user API, three schemes:
(1) File name + converter (optional)
(2) Byte loader + converter (both optional)
(3) Memory chunk
Schemes are present for constructor, include-push, and reset.
INTERNAL:
-- Unit tests for all three API schemes.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Quex 0.66.1 to 0.66.5 Release Notes:
NEW FEATURES:
-- 'on_bad_lexatom' handler in modes
Codec errors can now be detected directly during lexical
analysis. No extra run on the input data is required.
-- 'skip_range', 'skip_nested_range', and 'indentation' allow
now arbitrary regular expressions as boarders.
-- 'gavager' and 'feeder' adapters for manual buffer filling.
By means of these adapters the manual buffer filling has been
tremendously simplified. Example usage is show in the demo
directories 'demo/*/010'.
-- Introducing DFA Algebra. Consistent struction for 'union'
'intersection', and 'complement' of patterns.
-- Bug fixes on compiler warnings Ubuntu 64bit Linux.
-- Bug fixes with respect to converters using binary mode streams.
-- Adapted API for constructors, include_push, and reset to deal
with binary mode in 'std::istream' and 'std::wistream'.
INTERNAL:
-- All loop-functionality (indentation count, character skip,
range skip, and nested range skip) has been expressed in
terms of state machines only. String-base code generation in
this regard has been removed. Code-wise this has been a major
step towards uniformity.
-- Added serveral unit tests for skipping and indentation based
analysis.
-- Addes massive unit tests for converters using binary streams.
