package data-encoding

v0.1: Initial Release

v0.1.1:

• customizable initial size for internal buffer
• remove single lwt related function and lwt dependency

v0.2:

• CI tests
• error management improvements (use result, allow exn and option)
• do not print 0-sized fields in binary descriptions

v0.3:

• Adapt to json-data-encoding.0.9.1 and provide json-lexeme seq to string seq
• Improved performance
• maximum_length to determine static size bounds (when possible)
• provide to_/of_string alongside to_/of_bytes
• Improved documentation
• Increase test coverage
• Fix JSON encoding of Result

v0.4:

• catch exceptions in user-provided functions
• provide conv_guard to help enforce invariants
• remove unused read_error constructor: Invalid_size
• check that int31 is actually within int31 bounds
• add "slicing" feature to analyse binary encoded values

v0.5:

• add compact encoding combinators
• add fixed-length list and fixed-length array combinators
• fix bug wherein mu (… option …) caused an infinite recursion
• fix roundtrip property of BSON
• fix error management of lazy encodings (consistent with non-lazy encodings)
• add a default argument to Json.construct: ?include_default_fields, which is simply passed on to Json_encoding.construct
• fix missing exported type

v0.5.1:

• fix bug wherein infinite recursion protection prevented some legitimate uses

v0.5.2:

• make compact encoding's JSON encoding less opinionated

v0.5.3:

• fix bug wherein the binary description of zeroable encodings was invalid RST
• make compact encodings JSON output identical to that of vanilla encodings

v0.6:

• OCaml 4.14 support (including CI tests)
• new tutorial
• fix pathological performance issues when generating some binary descriptions for mu+union encodings

v0.6.1:

• improve error management when converting lazy-bytes into JSON

v0.7:

• add module with safer encoding combinators
• extend Registration API to allow introspection
• improve binary schema generation
• allow dynamic-width ints for ints (with proper overflow checks)
• allow dynamic-width ints (à la n) as size headers
• allow to use length-of-collection as header information instead of size
• export type equalities between Encoding.t and encoding and so on
• improve documentation
• add new string/bytes combinator with parameters to control the JSON representation
• fix bug in check-size combinator

v0.7.1:

• fixed binary-schema reference duplication issue

v1.0.0:

• merge in the json-data-encoding repository
• allow bigstring encodings
• allow to chose endianness of integers
• allow to ignore extra object fields when destructing JSON
• improve performance of JSON construction/destruction
• improve self documentation of compact encodings
• improve (further) error management when converting lazy-bytes into JSON

v1.0.1:

• fixed a bug where negative lengths were accepted by the binary reader
