## 1.11.0
### Core library changes
* `dart:core`
* Add `unmodifiable` constructor to `List` -
[r45334](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45334)
* `dart:isolate` *Experimental*
* Make the `priority` parameter of `Isolate.ping` and `Isolate.kill` methods
a named parameter.
* Remove the `Isolate.AS_EVENT` priority.
* Add extra `response` parameter to `Isolate.ping` and
`Isolate.addOnExitListener` -
[r45092](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45092)
## 1.10.0  2015-04-29
### Core library changes
* `dart:convert`
* **POTENTIALLY BREAKING** Fix behavior of `HtmlEscape`. It no longer escapes
no-break space (U+00A0) anywhere or forward slash (`/`, `U+002F`) in element
context. Slash is still escaped using `HtmlEscapeMode.UNKNOWN`.
[r45003](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45003),
[r45153](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45153),
[r45189](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45189)
* `dart:core`
* `Uri.parse` added `start` and `end` positional arguments.
* `dart:html`
* **POTENTIALLY BREAKING** `CssClassSet` method arguments must now be 'tokens', i.e. non-empty
strings with no white-space characters. The implementation was incorrect for
class names containing spaces. The fix is to forbid spaces and provide a
faster implementation.
[Announcement](https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/d/msg/announce/jmUI2XJHfC8/UZUCvJH3p2oJ)
* `dart:io`
* `ProcessResult` now exposes a constructor.
* `import` and `Isolate.spawnUri` now supports the
[Data URI scheme](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme) on the VM.
## Tool Changes
### pub
* Running `pub run foo` within a package now runs the `foo` executable defined
by the `foo` package. The previous behavior ran `bin/foo`. This makes it
easy to run binaries in dependencies, for instance `pub run test`.
* On Mac and Linux, signals sent to `pub run` and forwarded to the child
command.
## 1.9.3 2015-04-14
This is a bug fix release which merges a number of commits from `bleeding_edge`.
* dart2js: Addresses as issue with minified Javascript output with CSP enabled -
[r44453](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44453)
* Editor: Fixes accidental updating of files in the pub cache during rename
refactoring - [r44677](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44677)
* Editor: Fix for
[issue 23032](https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=23032)
regarding skipped breakpoints on Windows -
[r44824](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44824)
* dart:mirrors: Fix `MethodMirror.source` when the method is on the first line
in a script -
[r44957](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44957),
[r44976](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44976)
* pub: Fix for
[issue 23084](https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=23084):
Pub can fail to load transformers necessary for local development -
[r44876](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=44876)
## 1.9.1  2015-03-25
### Language changes
* Support for `async`, `await`, `sync*`, `async*`, `yield`, `yield*`, and `await
for`. See the [the language tour][async] for more details.
* Enum support is fully enabled. See [the language tour][enum] for more details.
[async]: https://www.dartlang.org/docs/dart-up-and-running/ch02.html#asynchrony
[enum]: https://www.dartlang.org/docs/dart-up-and-running/ch02.html#enums
### Tool changes
* The formatter is much more comprehensive and generates much more readable
code. See [its tool page][dartfmt] for more details.
* The analysis server is integrated into the IntelliJ plugin and the Dart
editor. This allows analysis to run out-of-process, so that interaction
remains smooth even for large projects.
* Analysis supports more and better hints, including unused variables and unused
private members.

### Core library changes
#### Highlights
* There's a new model for shared server sockets with no need for a `Socket`
reference.
* A new, much faster [regular expression engine][regexp].
* The Isolate API now works across the VM and `dart2js`.
[regexp]: http://news.dartlang.org/2015/02/irregexp-dart-vms-new-regexp.html
#### Details
For more information on any of these changes, see the corresponding
documentation on the [Dart API site](http://api.dartlang.org).
* `dart:async`:
* `Future.wait` added a new named argument, `cleanUp`, which is a callback
that releases resources allocated by a successful `Future`.
* The `SynchronousStreamController` class was added as an explicit name for
the type returned when the `sync` argument is passed to `new
StreamController`.
* `dart:collection`: The `new SplayTreeSet.from(Iterable)` constructor was
added.
* `dart:convert`: `Utf8Encoder.convert` and `Utf8Decoder.convert` added optional
`start` and `end` arguments.
* `dart:core`:
* `RangeError` added new static helper functions: `checkNotNegative`,
`checkValidIndex`, `checkValidRange`, and `checkValueInInterval`.
* `int` added the `modPow` function.
* `String` added the `replaceFirstMapped` and `replaceRange` functions.
* `dart:io`:
* Support for locking files to prevent concurrent modification was added. This
includes the `File.lock`, `File.lockSync`, `File.unlock`, and
`File.unlockSync` functions as well as the `FileLock` class.
* Support for starting detached processes by passing the named `mode` argument
(a `ProcessStartMode`) to `Process.start`. A process can be fully attached,
fully detached, or detached except for its standard IO streams.
* `HttpServer.bind` and `HttpServer.bindSecure` added the `v6Only` named
argument. If this is true, only IPv6 connections will be accepted.
* `HttpServer.bind`, `HttpServer.bindSecure`, `ServerSocket.bind`,
`RawServerSocket.bind`, `SecureServerSocket.bind` and
`RawSecureServerSocket.bind` added the `shared` named argument. If this is
true, multiple servers or sockets in the same Dart process may bind to the
same address, and incoming requests will automatically be distributed
between them.
* **Deprecation:** the experimental `ServerSocketReference` and
`RawServerSocketReference` classes, as well as getters that returned them,
are marked as deprecated. The `shared` named argument should be used
instead. These will be removed in Dart 1.10.
* `Socket.connect` and `RawSocket.connect` added the `sourceAddress` named
argument, which specifies the local address to bind when making a
connection.
* The static `Process.killPid` method was added to kill a process with a given
PID.
* `Stdout` added the `nonBlocking` instance property, which returns a
non-blocking `IOSink` that writes to standard output.
* `dart:isolate`:
* The static getter `Isolate.current` was added.
* The `Isolate` methods `addOnExitListener`, `removeOnExitListener`,
`setErrorsFatal`, `addOnErrorListener`, and `removeOnErrorListener` now work
on the VM.
* Isolates spawned via `Isolate.spawn` now allow most objects, including
top-level and static functions, to be sent between them.
## 1.8.5  2015-01-21
* Code generation for SIMD on ARM and ARM64 is fixed.
* A possible crash on MIPS with newer GCC toolchains has been prevented.
* A segfault when using `rethrow` was fixed ([issue 21795][]).
[issue 21795]: https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=21795
## 1.8.3  2014-12-10
* Breakpoints can be set in the Editor using file suffixes ([issue 21280][]).
* IPv6 addresses are properly handled by `HttpClient` in `dart:io`, fixing a
crash in pub ([issue 21698][]).
* Issues with the experimental `async`/`await` syntax have been fixed.
* Issues with a set of number operations in the VM have been fixed.
* `ListBase` in `dart:collection` always returns an `Iterable` with the correct
type argument.
[issue 21280]: https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=21280
[issue 21698]: https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=21698
## 1.8.0 2014-11-28
* `dart:collection`: `SplayTree` added the `toSet` function.
* `dart:convert`: The `JsonUtf8Encoder` class was added.
* `dart:core`:
* The `IndexError` class was added for errors caused by an index being outside
its expected range.
* The `new RangeError.index` constructor was added. It forwards to `new
IndexError`.
* `RangeError` added three new properties. `invalidProperty` is the value that
caused the error, and `start` and `end` are the minimum and maximum values
that the value is allowed to assume.
* `new RangeError.value` and `new RangeError.range` added an optional
`message` argument.
* The `new String.fromCharCodes` constructor added optional `start` and `end`
arguments.
* `dart:io`:
* Support was added for the [Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation][alpn]
extension to the TLS protocol for both the client and server.
* `SecureSocket.connect`, `SecureServerSocket.bind`,
`RawSecureSocket.connect`, `RawSecureSocket.secure`,
`RawSecureSocket.secureServer`, and `RawSecureServerSocket.bind` added a
`supportedProtocols` named argument for protocol negotiation.
* `RawSecureServerSocket` added a `supportedProtocols` field.
* `RawSecureSocket` and `SecureSocket` added a `selectedProtocol` field which
contains the protocol selected during protocol negotiation.
[alpn]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7301
## 1.7.0  2014-10-15
### Tool changes
* `pub` now generates binstubs for packages that are globally activated so that
they can be put on the user's `PATH` and used as normal executables. See the
[`pub global activate` documentation][pub global activate].
* When using `dart2js`, deferred loading now works with multiple Dart apps on
the same page.
[pub global activate]: https://www.dartlang.org/tools/pub/cmd/pub-global.html#running-a-script-from-your-path
### Core library changes
* `dart:async`: `Zone`, `ZoneDelegate`, and `ZoneSpecification` added the
`errorCallback` function, which allows errors that have been programmatically
added to a `Future` or `Stream` to be intercepted.
* `dart:io`:
* **Breaking change:** `HttpClient.close` must be called for all clients or
they will keep the Dart process alive until they time out. This fixes the
handling of persistent connections. Previously, the client would shut down
immediately after a request.
* **Breaking change:** `HttpServer` no longer compresses all traffic by
default. The new `autoCompress` property can be set to `true` to re-enable
compression.
* `dart:isolate`: `Isolate.spawnUri` added the optional `packageRoot` argument,
which controls how it resolves `package:` URIs.
