Hello Everyone,
I'm pleased to announce version 1.0.0.0 of the `base16-bytestring` library. This release marks an epochal change in the library's structure, changing some existing features, and adding others. There was only on PR contribution marking this release, but it was a big omnibus one. In the latest release, we...
- Improved performance by 3-4x for encode, 4-5x for decode.
- Changed the `
decode`signature to return an error message with offset. The signature will now be `ByteString -> Either String ByteString`in alignment with other encoding standards. - Actually test using the test vectors defined in the RFC, and uses property tests to ensure invariants hold.
- Added lenient decoders to the API
- Added `
-XTrustworthy`annotations to the relevant exposed modules - Rewrote the haddocks to be more up to date and fancy-styled.
- Added benchmarks to the `
.cabal` fileas opposed to being a separate target, so they can be run at toplevel, and can exist as an integral part of the spec. - Bumped the Cabal version to 1.12
Thanks to Herbert and Mikhail for helping make this happen.
Cheers,
Emily
