Unreleased

3.1 - 2024-08-08

Added

BlockUtil.h and CoDispatch.h are now supported on Linux

3.0 - 2024-01-17

Changed

BlockUtil.h: makeBlock functionality is completely reworked. New functionality:
- Wrap any callables including mutable lambdas or any other callable that provides non-const operator().
- If the callable is movable it will be moved into the block, not copied. It will also be moved if the block is "copied to heap" by ObjectiveC runtime or Block_copy in plain C++.
- It is possible to use move-only callables.
- All of this is accomplished with NO dynamic memory allocation
NSStringCharAccess now conforms completely to std::ranges::random_access_range
BoxUtil.h: boxing now detects comparability and enables compare: not just via presence of operator <=> but also when only operators <, ==, <= etc. are present.
BoxUtil.h: generated ObjectiveC box classes now have names unique to each shared library/main executable, preventing collisions if multiple modules use boxing.

Added

NSStringUtil.h: added makeNSString, makeCFString and makeStdString conversion functions between C++ character ranges and ObjectiveC strings.

2.3 - 2024-01-09

Added

BoxUtil.h header for generic boxing and unboxing of any C++ object to/from an ObjectiveC one
XCTestUtil.h header for XCTest macros to compare C++ objects while producing useful descriptions in case of failure.

2.2 - 2023-12-22

Changed

Performance optimizations for CoDispatch

2.1 - 2023-12-16

Added

all variants of resumeOn and resumeOnMainQueue now accept when argument to request that the resumption happens no earlier than the specified time. When used with co_await resumeOn(currentQueue, when) this allows the caller to sleep asynchronously without blocking its queue.

2.0 - 2023-12-13

Added

CoDispatch.h: A collection of classes and functions that allows you to write asynchronous C++ coroutines and generators that execute on GCD dispatch queues. Detailed guide is available here
Ability to subtract NSStringCharAccess::iterators
Ability to get starting index of NSStringCharAccess::iterator inside its string
Extensive unit tests for all functionality

Fixed

Crash in NSNumberEqual when second argument is nullptr
NSStringCharAccess::empty() returning opposite result
Compiler warnings in pedantic mode

1.1 - 2022-08-20

Fixed

Suppressing compiler warning on an unused argument

1.0 - 2021-06-16

Added

Initial version
