reedsolomon v0.0.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2015-12-27 // over 8 years ago
  • Highlights since version 0.0.2.0:

    🛠 Fix library

    🏗 Before this version, the library was unusable outside its build tree,
    because the SIMD enhancement object files, generated from C sources,
    were not added to the static library archive or dynamic shared object.

    🚀 This release contains a hack for the Cabal build infrastructure, using
    wrappers for the ar and ghc tools, which inject the required
    💻 command line arguments where applicable.

    🍎 This has been tested on Linux, MacOS X and Windows through all CI
    platforms used for this project, but it's still an error-prone and
    non-portable work-around.

    Various

    • Dependency version bounds were bumped to include current Stackage
      nightly.
    • 🚚 The -funroll-all-loops compiler option was removed from CFLAGS.
    • A reference benchmark using memcpy was added to the benchmark
      🐎 suite, which allows to compare encoding performance to memory
      bandwidth.
