Release 0.2.3

This release is focused on bug fixes and compliance with the YAML test suite.

New features

• Add support for CPU architectures aarch64, ppc64le, s390x.
• Update c4core to 0.1.7
• Tree and NodeRef: add document getter doc() and docref()

  Tree tree = parse(R"(---
  doc0
  ---
  doc1
  )");
  NodeRef stream = t.rootref();
  assert(stream.is_stream());
  // tree.doc(i): get the index of the i-th doc node.
  // Equivalent to tree.child(tree.root_id(), i)
  assert(tree.doc(0) == 1u);
  assert(tree.doc(1) == 2u);
  // tree.docref(i), same as above, return NodeRef
  assert(tree.docref(0).val() == "doc0");
  assert(tree.docref(1).val() == "doc1");
  // stream.doc(i), same as above, given NodeRef
  assert(stream.doc(0).val() == "doc0");
  assert(stream.doc(1).val() == "doc1");

Fixes

• Fix compilation with C4CORE_NO_FAST_FLOAT (PR #163)

Flow maps

• Fix parse of multiline plain scalars inside flow maps (PR #161):

  # test case UT92
  # all parsed as "matches %": 20
  - { matches
  % : 20 }
  - { matches
  %: 20 }
  - { matches
  %:
   20 }

Tags

• Fix parsing of tags followed by comments in sequences (PR #161):

  # test case 735Y
  - !!map # Block collection
    foo : bar

Quoted scalars

• Fix filtering of tab characters in quoted scalars (PR #161):

  ---
  # test case 5GBF
  "Empty line
   <TAB>
  as a line feed"
  # now correctly parsed as "Empty line\nas a line feed"
  ---
  # test case PRH3
  ' 1st non-empty
  
  <SPC>2nd non-empty<SPC>
  <TAB>3rd non-empty '
  # now correctly parsed as " 1st non-empty\n2nd non-empty 3rd non-empty "

• Fix filtering of backslash characters in double-quoted scalars (PR #161):

  # test cases NP9H, Q8AD
  "folded<SPC>
  to a space,<TAB>
  <SPC>
  to a line feed, or <TAB>\
   \ <TAB>non-content"
  # now correctly parsed as "folded to a space,\nto a line feed, or \t \tnon-content"

• Ensure filtering of multiline quoted scalars (PR #161):

  # all scalars now correctly parsed as "quoted string",
  # both for double and single quotes
  ---
  "quoted
  string"
  --- "quoted
  string"
  ---
  - "quoted
    string"
  ---
  - "quoted
  string"
  ---
  "quoted
    string": "quoted
    string"
  ---
  "quoted
  string": "quoted
  string"

Block scalars

• Ensure no newlines are added when emitting block scalars (PR #161)
• Fix parsing of block spec with both chomping and indentation: chomping may come before or after the indentation (PR #161):

  # the block scalar specs below now have the same effect.
  # test cases: D83L, P2AD
  - |2-
    explicit indent and chomp
  - |-2
    chomp and explicit indent

• Fix inference of block indentation with leading blank lines (PR #161):

  # test cases: 4QFQ, 7T8X
  - >
   
    
    # child1
  # parsed as "\n\n child1"
  --- # test case DWX9
  |
   
    
    literal
     
    
    text
  
   # Comment
  # parsed as "\n\nliteral\n \n\ntext\n"

• Fix parsing of same-indentation block scalars (PR #161):

  # test case W4TN
  # all docs have the same value: "%!PS-Adobe-2.0"
  --- |
   %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  ...
  --- >
   %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  ...
  --- |
  %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  ...
  --- >
  %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  ...
  --- |
   %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  --- >
   %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  --- |
  %!PS-Adobe-2.0
  --- >
  %!PS-Adobe-2.0

• Folded block scalars: fix folding of newlines at the border of indented parts (PR #161):

  # test case 6VJK
  # now correctly parsed as "Sammy Sosa completed another fine season with great stats.\n\n  63 Home Runs\n  0.288 Batting Average\n\nWhat a year!\n"
  >
    Sammy Sosa completed another
    fine season with great stats.
   
      63 Home Runs
      0.288 Batting Average
   
    What a year!

  # test case MJS9
  # now correctly parsed as "foo \n\n \t bar\n\nbaz\n"
  >
    foo<SPC>
  <SPC>
    <SPC><TAB><SPC>bar
  
    baz

• Folded block scalars: fix folding of newlines when the indented part is at the begining of the scalar (PR #161):

  # test case F6MC
  a: >2
     more indented
    regular
  # parsed as a: " more indented\nregular\n"
  b: >2
  
  
     more indented
    regular
  # parsed as b: "\n\n more indented\nregular\n"

Plain scalars

• Fix parsing of whitespace within plain scalars (PR #161):

  ---
  # test case NB6Z
  key:
    value
    with
     	
    tabs
    tabs
     	
      foo
     	
        bar
          baz
     	
  # is now correctly parsed as "value with\ntabs tabs\nfoo\nbar baz"
  ---
  # test case 9YRD, EX5H (trailing whitespace)
  a
  b  
    c
  d
  
  e
  # is now correctly parsed as "a b c d\ne"

• Fix parsing of unindented plain scalars at the root level scope (PR #161)

  --- # this parsed
  Bare
   scalar
   is indented
  # was correctly parsed as "Bare scalar is indented"
  --- # but this failed to parse successfully:
  Bare
  scalar
  is not indented
  # is now correctly parsed as "Bare scalar is not indented"
  --- # test case NB6Z
  value
  with
   	
  tabs
  tabs
   	
    foo
   	
      bar
        baz
    	
  # now correctly parsed as "value with\ntabs tabs\nfoo\nbar baz"
  ---
  --- # test cases EXG3, 82AN
  ---word1
  word2
  # now correctly parsed as "---word1 word2"

• Fix parsing of comments within plain scalars

  # test case 7TMG
  --- # now correctly parsed as "word1"
  word1
  # comment
  --- # now correctly parsed as [word1, word2]
  [ word1
  # comment
  , word2]

Python API

• Add missing node predicates in SWIG API definition (PR #166):
  • is_anchor_or_ref()
  • is_key_quoted()
  • is_val_quoted()
  • is_quoted()
