Change Log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This change log follows the conventions of keepachangelog.com.

Unreleased

Added

• Support for JDK 22
• reinterpret function which changes the size associated with a segment, optionally associating it with an arena and cleanup action

Changed

• Arglists and docstrings of functions to refer to arenas rather than the outdated terms scope or session
• Change the arguments to as-segment to take longs to account for the removal of an Address type

Removed

• Deprecated functions referring to sessions and scopes
• Deprecated functions slice-into and with-offset, replaced by the function slice

Fixed

• Prep step when using coffi as a dependency wouldn't re-run if it failed during execution, e.g. when using the incorrect java version

0.6.409 - 2023-03-31

Added

• Support for JDK 19
• New macros for defining vars with values from native code
• New function to allow getting the backing memory segment of a coffi.ffi.StaticVariable, to replace the Addressable implementation lost in the migration to JDK 18

Fixed

• Bug where static-variables with primitive types would not deserialize properly on deref
• Uses of defvar not compiling
• Bug where nil values would not be correctly coerced to null pointers when passed to inlined functions
• Bug where inline serde functions would fail on complex pointer types
• Bug where padding in structs may be increased when fields have alignments less than their size
• Bug where pointer alignment was incorrectly defined

Changed

• References to scope as a term have been changed to session to match Panama messaging. Where this conflicts with function names, old versions have been deprecated and new names have been introduced.

0.5.357 - 2022-07-07

Removed

• :coffi.mem/long-long primitive type
• coffi.mem/slice-into; the function no longer has an equivalent in panama, but see 2-arity of coffi.mem/as-segment for an alternative

Changed

• coffi.mem/as-segment no longer has a close action arity
• JDK version from 17 to 18

0.4.341 - 2022-01-23

Added

• Constants for size and alignment of primitive types
• Support for non-native byte orders of primitive types
• Functions for reading and writing primitive types (e.g. coffi.mem/read-float, coffi.mem/write-long, etc.)
• Layout objects may now be passed to coffi.mem/size-of and coffi.mem/align-of
• Constants for native-order primitive layouts
• Constants for byte orders

Changed

• The coffi.mem/primitive? predicate is now actually a function instead of a set

0.3.298 - 2022-01-10

Added

• New coffi.layout namespace with support for forcing C layout rules on structs

Fixed

• C-characters were being read as UTF-16 rather than ASCII code points

0.2.277 - 2021-10-25

Fixed

• Non-primitive arguments on upcalls would generate invalid bytecode with nil instructions

0.2.259 - 2021-10-16

Fixed

• Long and double arguments to upcalls failed to compile in some cases
• Void return types on upcalls would crash on serialization

0.1.251 - 2021-10-14

Fixed

• Bug with the inline expansion of make-serde-wrapper, make it more maintainable

0.1.246 - 2021-10-14

Fixed

• Incorrect inline expansion of make-serde-wrapper in cases where a function has no arguments

0.1.241 - 2021-10-14

Performance

• Added an :inline function to make-serde-wrapper to remove serialization overhead on primitives
• Added multimethod implementations for primitives in (de)serialization functions, rather than using the default

Fixed

• cfn didn't add serializers with non-primitive types in some cases

0.1.220 - 2021-10-09

Fixed

• All-primitive method types still used serialization when called from cfn
• Arrays deserialized to non-vector sequences
• Non-primitive argument types fail to link

0.1.205 - 2021-10-06

Added

• An address? predicate

Fixed

• Compound types caused problems in arglists meta on expansion of defcfn
• Compound types were not allowed as return types in defcfn
• nil was not considered a null pointer
• Primitive-serializing types fail to compile as arguments to downcall handles
• Primitive-serializing types fail to load as arguments to upcall functions
• Void return types on upcalls crash the JVM
• Invalid implementation of serialize-into for primitive types

0.1.192 - 2021-09-30

Added

• An ::ffi/address key to wrapper functions' metadata

Fixed

• Usage of a method no longer in Panama that breaks with-acquired

0.1.184 - 2021-09-30

Fixed

• Deserializing nullpointers as functions threw an exception
• Upcall stubs with non-primitive arguments failed to compile
• Upcall stubs had incorrect types

0.1.176 - 2021-09-29

Fixed

• Usage of defcfn without a docstring produced an invalid def form

0.1.169 - 2021-09-28

Added

• Macro for easily wrapping native functions with arbitrary logic
• Functions for creating wrapper fns for native functions
• Macro for easily aliasing types
• Functions to create scopes for deterministic deallocation
• Functions to load libraries by name or path
• Support for serializing and deserializing arbitrary Clojure functions
• Support for serializing and deserializing arbitrary Clojure data structures
