auto v0.4.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2015-04-06 // about 9 years ago

  • 🚀 https://github.com/mstksg/auto/releases/tag/v0.4.1.0

    • Adapted to more consistent semantic versioning scheme, where the third number is a new update, and the fourth number is reserved for bug fixes.

    • Control.Auto.Blip: foldrB and foldlB' officially deprecated in their current forms. From version 0.5, they will have corrected functionality and a new type signature. The current functionality doesn't really make sense, and was a mistake during their implementation. You can begin using the new versions now, with:

      foldrB  = foldr  (merge f) mempty
foldlB' = foldl' (merge f) mempty

    • Control.Auto.Effects: New "sealing" mechanisms for underlying Reader: sealReaderMVar and sealReaderM. sealReaderMVar allows things like "hot swapping" configuration data; at every step, the Auto asks for its environment from an MVar, that could be changed/modified from a different thread with new configuration data. sealReaderM is a more general/potentially dangerous version where the environment is retrieved through an arbitrary action in the underlying monad.

    • Control.Auto.Run: New powerful combinator throughT, letting you "lift" an Auto to run over/through any Traversable. Can replace during, perBlip, accelOverList, etc. The specialized versions will remain more performant, though.

    • Control.Auto.Run: In the spirit of the hip and current Foldable Traversable Proposal, overTraversable added to complement overList, so you can now "stream" Autos over IntMaps, Maybes, Consts...or any Traversable. Not replacing overList completely, though, for performance reasons.

    • Control.Auto.Blip: Removed unnecessary Monad constraints on became_, became', noLonger_, and noLonger'.

    • Control.Auto.Interval: Bug fix on holdFor and holdFor_, where they had the potential to overflow Int and begin "holding" forever when given specifically malformed input.

    • Control.Auto.Time: Performance boost on accelOverList by using strict Writer over lazy.
