Raw Blame History

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.4.1

  • compat-29: Add directory-abbrev-apply.
  • compat-29: Add directory-abbrev-make-regexp.

(Release <2023-03-26 Sun>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.4.0

  • compat-27: Drop obsolete compat-call dired-get-marked-files.

(Release <2023-03-05 Sun>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.3.4

  • Ensure that seq is required properly both at compile time and runtime, such that compilation of downstream packages works even if Compat itself is not compiled. Magit uses a complex continuous integration system, where Magit is compiled and tested, while the Compat dependency is not compiled.
  • compat-28: Add process-lines-handling-status and process-lines-ignore-status.

(Release <2023-02-11 Sat>)

  • compat-29: Load seq, which is preloaded on Emacs 29.

(Release <2023-02-08 Wed>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.3.2

  • compat-26: Add make-temp-file with optional argument TEXT.
  • compat-27: Mark compat-call dired-get-marked-files as obsolete. See the section limitations in the Compat manual.

(Release <2023-01-22 Sun>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.2.0

  • All compatibility functions are covered by tests!
  • Add links from compatibility definitions to tests.

  • compat-26: Add buffer-hash.
  • compat-27: Add fixnump and bignump.
  • compat-27: Add with-minibuffer-selected-window.
  • compat-27: Add generalized variables for decoded-time-*.
  • compat-28: Add macroexp-warn-and-return.
  • compat-28: Add subr-native-elisp-p.
  • compat-28: Add bounds-of-thing-at-mouse.
  • compat-29: Add with-buffer-unmodified-if-unchanged.
  • compat-29: Fix and test define-key with REMOVE argument.

(Release <2023-01-16 Mon>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.1.1

  • Add tests, 167 out of 203 definitions tested (82%).
  • compat-25: Improve algorithmic complexity of sort.
  • compat-28: Add make-separator-line.
  • compat-29: Minor fixes to keymap-* functions.
  • compat-29: Add with-memoization.
  • compat-29: Add buttonize and buttonize-region.

(Release <2023-01-14 Sat>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.1.0

  • The macros in compat-macs.el have been rewritten and simplified. The refactoring allows to further refine the criteria under which compatibility aliases, functions, macros and variables are installed.
  • Remove deprecated, prefixed compatibility functions.
  • Remove deprecated features compat-help, compat-font-lock and compat-24.
  • Compat uses runtime checks (boundp, fboundp) to ensure that existing definitions are never overridden, when Compat is loaded on a newer Emacs than it was compiled on.
  • Compat compiles without byte compilation warnings on all supported Emacs versions. Warnings are treated as errors in the test suite.
  • Compat takes great care to remove unneeded definitions at compile time. On recent Emacs 29 the byte compiled files are empty and not loaded, such that Compat does not any cost to the Emacs process.
  • compat-26: Fix and test image-property setter.
  • compat-26: Fix and test read-multiple-choice.
  • compat-28: Fix and test with-existing-directory.
  • compat-28: Drop obsolete function make-directory-autoloads.
  • compat-29: Drop broken functions string-pixel-width and buffer-text-pixel-size. These functions had poor performance which lead to a downstream issue in the doom-modeline package. If a more efficient solution is possible, the function will be added back. See compat-gh:8 for the bug report.
  • compat-29: Drop broken function string-limit.
  • compat-29: Drop broken macro with-buffer-unmodified-if-unchanged, which relied on buffer-hash which does not exist on all supported Emacs versions.
  • compat-29: Add pos-bol and pos-eol.

(Release <2023-01-07 Sat>)

Release of "Compat" Version 29.1.0.1

  • Add multiple new tests for existing APIs.
  • Fix bugs in compatibility functions: setq-local, proper-list-p, prop-match-p, file-name-concat, replace-regexp-in-region, replace-string-in-region.
  • Add new Emacs 29 APIs. Some of them are still untested and may change. If you intend to use an Emacs 29 API please be careful and if possible contribute test cases. All untested functions are marked in the Compat code. Over time tests for all functions will be added gradually.
  • Add the macros compat-call and compat-function to call compatibility functions. Since Compat avoids overwriting already existing functions, we must define separate compatibility function definitions for functions which changed their calling convention or behavior. These compatibility definitions can be looked up using compat-function and called with compat-call. For example assoc can be called with a TESTFN since Emacs 26. In Emacs 25 and older the calling convention was (assoc KEY ALIST). In order to use the new calling convention you can use (compat-call assoc KEY ALIST TESTFN).
  • Deprecate all compat-* prefixed functions. Instead use the aforementioned compat-call or compat-function macros.
  • Deprecate compat-help.el and compat-font-lock.el.
  • Development moved to GitHub.
  • BREAKING: Drop broken function func-arity. Using func-arity is generally discouraged and the function is hard to implement properly due to all the various function types. There it is unlikely that the function will get reintroduced in Compat.
  • BREAKING: Drop broken function directory-files-recursively. In case you need this function, a patch including tests is welcome.
  • BREAKING: Drop support for Emacs 24.3. Emacs 24.4 is required now. In case you still need Emacs 24.3 support, you can rely on Compat 28.1.2.2.

(Release <2023-01-05 Thu>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.2.2

This is a minor release that hopes to address compat-srht:7.

(Release <2022-08-25 Thu>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.2.1

This is a minor release adding the following changes:

  • Add derived-mode-p defined in Emacs 27
  • Add provided-mode-derived-p defined in Emacs 27
  • Add read-multiple-choice defined in Emacs 26
  • Add file-name-absolute-p defined in Emacs 28

The only other notable change is that the manual has been rewritten to include much more documentation that had been the case previously.

(Release <2022-08-24 Wed>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.2.0

The main change of this release has been the major simplification of Compat's initialisation system, improving the situation around issues people had been reporting (compat-srht:4, once again) with unconventional or unpopular packaging systems.

In addition to this, the following functional changes have been made:

  • Fix format-prompt of an empty string as "default" argument
  • Add decoded-time-period defined in Emacs 28
  • Add subr-primitive-p defined in Emacs 28

Minor improvements to manual are also part of this release.

(Release <2022-07-18 Mon>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.1.3

This release just contains a hot-fix for an issue introduced in the last version, where compat.el raises an error during byte compilation. See compat-srht:4.

(Release <2022-06-19 Sun>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.1.2

Two main changes have necessitated a new patch release:

  1. Fix issues related to the loading of compat when uncompiled. See this thread for more details on the problem.
  2. Fix issues related to the loading of compat on old pre-releases (think of 28.0.50). See this thread for more details on the problem.

(Released <2022-06-22 Wed>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.1.1

This is a minor release fixing a bug in json-serialize, that could cause unintended side-effects, not related to packages using Compat directly (see compat-srht:2).

(Released <2022-05-05 Thu>)

Release of "Compat" Version 28.1.1.0

This release mostly fixes a number of smaller bugs that were not identified as of 28.1.0.0. Nevertheless these warrent a version bump, as some of these changes a functional. These include:

  • The addition of the file-attribute-* accessor functions.
  • The addition of file-attribute-collect.
  • Improvements to the Texinfo manual (via Jonas Bernoulli's recent work on ox-texinfo). For the time being, the Texinfo file is maintained in the repository itself, next to the MANUAL file. This might change in the future.
  • Adding a prefix to string-trim, string-trim-left and string-trim-right (i.e. now compat-string-trim, compat-string-trim-left and compat-string-trim-right)
  • Improving the version inference used in the compat-* macros. This improves the compile-time optimisation that strips away functions that are known to be defined for a specific version.
  • The addition of generalised variable (setf) support for compat-alist-get.
  • The addition of image-property and generalised variable support for image-property.
  • The addition of the function compat-executable-find.
  • The addition of the function compat-dired-get-marked-files.
  • The addition of the function exec-path.
  • The addition of the function make-lock-file-name.
  • The addition of the function null-device.
  • The addition of the function time-equal-p.
  • The addition of the function date-days-in-month.
  • Handling out-of-directory byte compilation better.
  • Fixing the usage and edge-cases of and-let*.
