v0.10.1

Enhancements

• [Behaviour] Add support for defmacrocallback/1
• [Enum] Add Enum.shuffle/1
• [ExUnit] The :trace option now also reports run time for each test
• [ExUnit] Add support for :color to enable/disable ANSI coloring
• [IEx] Add the clear helper to clear the screen.
• [Kernel] Add the capture operator &
• [Kernel] Add support for GenFSM.Behaviour
• [Kernel] Functions now points to the module and function they were defined when inspected
• [Kernel] A documentation attached to a function that is never defined now prints warnings

• [Mix] Add manifests for yecc, leex and Erlang compilers, making it easier to detect dependencies in between compilers and providing a more useful clean behaviour
• [Mix] mix help now outputs information about the default mix task
• [Mix] Add --no-deps-check option to mix run, mix compile and friends to not check dependency status
• [Mix] Add support for MIX_GIT_FORCE_HTTPS system environment that forces HTTPS for known providers, useful when the regular git port is blocked. This configuration does not affect the mix.lock results
• [Mix] Allow coverage tool to be pluggable via the :test_coverage configuration
• [Mix] Add mix cmd as a convenience to run a command recursively in child apps in an umbrella application
• [Mix] Support umbrella: true in dependencies as a convenience for setting up umbrella path deps
• [Mix] mix run now behaves closer to the elixir command and properly mangles the ARGV
• [String] Add Regex.scan/3 now supports capturing groups
• [String] Add String.reverse/1

Bug fix

• [Behaviour] Ensure callbacks are stored in the definition order
• [CLI] Speed up boot time on Elixir .bat files
• [IEx] Reduce cases where IEx parser can get stuck
• [Kernel] Improve error messages when the use of an operator has no effect
• [Kernel] Fix a bug where warnings were not being generated when imported macros conflicted with local functions or macros
• [Kernel] Document that on_definition can only be a function as it is evaluated inside the function context
• [Kernel] Ensure %w sigils with no interpolation are fully expanded at compile time
• [Mix] mix deps.update, mix deps.clean and mix deps.unlock no longer change all dependencies unless --all is given
• [Mix] Always run mix loadpaths on mix app.start, even if --no-compile is given
• [OptionParser] Do not add boolean flags to the end result if they were not given
• [OptionParser] Do not parse non-boolean flags as booleans when true or false are given
• [OptionParser] Ensure :keep and :integer|:float can be given together as options
• [OptionParser] Ensure --no-flag sets :flag to false when :flag is a registered boolean switch

Deprecations

• [Kernel] function(Mod.fun/arity) and function(fun/arity) are deprecated in favor of &Mod.fun/arity and &fun/arity
• [Kernel] function/3 is deprecated in favor of Module.function/3
• [Kernel] Kernel.ParallelCompiler now receives a set of callbacks instead of a single one
• [Mix] :test_coverage option now expect keywords arguments and the --cover flag is now treated as a boolean

Backwards incompatible changes

• [Regex] Regex.scan/3 now always returns a list of lists, normalizing the result, instead of list with mixed lists and binaries
• [System] System.halt/2 was removed since the current Erlang implementation of such function is bugged

v0.10.0

Enhancements

• [ExUnit] Support trace: true option which gives detailed reporting on test runs
• [HashDict] Optimize HashDict to store pairs in a cons cell reducing storage per key by half
• [Kernel] Add pretty printing support for inspect
• [Kernel] Add document algebra library used as the foundation for pretty printing
• [Kernel] Add defrecordp/3 that enables specifying the first element of the tuple
• [Kernel] Add the Set API and a hash based implementation via HashSet
• [Kernel] Add Stream as composable, lazy-enumerables
• [Mix] mix archive now includes the version of the generated archive
• [Mix] Mix now requires explicit dependency overriding to be given with override: true
• [Mix] Projects can now define an :elixir key to outline supported Elixir versions
• [Typespec] Improve error messages to contain file, line and the typespec itself

Bug fix

• [CLI] Elixir can now run on Unix directories with : in its path
• [Kernel] match?/2 does not leak variables to outer scope
• [Kernel] Keep head|tail format when splicing at the tail
• [Kernel] Ensure variables defined in the module body are not passed to callbacks
• [Mix] On dependencies conflict, show from where each source is coming from
• [Mix] Empty projects no longer leave empty ebin files on mix compile
• [Module] Calling Module.register_attribute/3 no longer automatically changes it to persisted or accumulated

Deprecations

• [Enum] Receiving the index of iteration in Enum.map/2 and Enum.each/2 is deprecated in favor of Stream.with_index/1
• [File] File.iterator/1 and File.biniterator/1 are deprecated in favor of IO.stream/1 and IO.binstream/1
• [File] File.iterator!/2 and File.biniterator!/2 are deprecated in favor of File.stream!/2 and File.binstream!/2
• [Kernel] Deprecate recently added quote binding: ... in favor of the clearer quote bind_quoted: ...
• [Kernel] Deprecate Kernel.float/1 in favor of a explicit conversion
• [Mix] Deprecate mix run EXPR in favor of mix run -e EXPR
• [Record] Record.__index__/2 deprecated in favor of Record.__record__(:index, key)

Backwards incompatible changes

• [Kernel] The Binary.Inspect protocol has been renamed to Inspect

• [Kernel] Tighten up the grammar rules regarding parentheses omission, previously the examples below would compile but now they raise an error message:

      do_something 1, is_list [], 3
      [1, is_atom :foo, 3]
  

• [Module] Calling Module.register_attribute/3 no longer automatically changes it to persisted or accumulated

• [Record] First element of a record via defrecordp is now the defrecordp name and no longer the current atom
