Subject: | [ANNOUNCEMENT] gawk 5.0.0-1 |
Sender: | qmail alias <cygwin AT server4 DOT sourceware DOT org> |
The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution: * gawk-5.0.0-1 This is a new upstream release. Changes from 4.2.1 to 5.0.0 --------------------------- 1. Support for the POSIX standard %a and %A printf formats has been added. 2. The test infrastructure has been greatly improved, simplifying the contents of test/Makefile.am and making it possible to generate pc/Makefile.tst from test/Makefile.in. 3. The regex routines have been replaced with those from GNULIB, allowing me to stop carrying forward decades of changes against the original ones from GLIBC. 4. Infrastructure upgrades: Bison 3.3, Automake 1.16.1, Gettext 0.19.8.1, makeinfo 6.5. 5. The undocumented configure option and code that enabled the use of non-English "letters" in identifiers is now gone. 6. The `--with-whiny-user-strftime' configuration option is now gone. 7. The code now makes some stronger assumptions about a C99 environment. 8. PROCINFO["platform"] yields a string indicating the platform for which gawk was compiled. 9. Writing to elements of SYMTAB that are not variable names now causes a fatal error. THIS CHANGES BEHAVIOR. 10. Comment handling in the pretty-printer has been reworked almost completely from scratch. As a result, comments in many corner cases that were previously lost are now included in the formatted output. 11. Namespaces have been implemented! See the manual. One consequence of this is that files included with -i, read with -f, and command line program segments must all be self-contained syntactic units. E.g., you can no longer do something like this: gawk -e 'BEGIN {' -e 'print "hello" }' 12. Gawk now uses the locale settings for ignoring case in single byte locales, instead of hardwiring in Latin-1. 13. A number of bugs, some of them quite significant, have been fixed. See the ChangeLog for details.
