## 2.0.0-dev.XX.0
|
||
(Add new changes here, and they will be copied to the
|
||
change section for the next dev version)
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.45.0
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* Removed the deprecated `defaultValue` parameter on `Stream.firstWhere` and
|
||
`Stream.lastWhere`.
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
* Fix a bug where the version solver could crash when resolving a conflict
|
||
involving pre-release constraints ([issue 1856][pub#1856]).
|
||
|
||
[pub#1856]: https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/issues/1856
|
||
|
||
#### Analyzer
|
||
|
||
* The command line analyzer (dartanalyzer) and the analysis server no longer
|
||
treat directories named `packages` specially. Previously they had ignored
|
||
these directories - and their contents - from the point of view of analysis. Now
|
||
they'll be treated just as regular directories. This special-casing of
|
||
`packages` directories was to support using symlinks for package: resolution;
|
||
that functionality is now handled by `.packages` files.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.44.0
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:collection`
|
||
* Removed `Maps` class. Extend `MapBase` or mix in `MapMixin` instead to
|
||
provide map method implementations for a class.
|
||
* `dart:html`
|
||
* Removed deprecated `query` and `queryAll` use `querySelector` and `queryAllSelector`.
|
||
* Removed experimental `Document` method `getCSSCanvasContext` and property
|
||
`supportsCssCanvasContext`.
|
||
* Removed obsolete `Element` property `xtag` no longer supported in browsers.
|
||
* Exposed `ServiceWorker` class.
|
||
* Added constructor to `MessageChannel` and `MessagePort` `addEventListener` automatically calls
|
||
`start` method to receive queued messages.
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `IOOverrides.socketConnect`.
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
* Pub has a brand new version solver! It supports all the same features as the
|
||
old version solver, but it's much less likely to stall out on difficult
|
||
package graphs, and it's much clearer about why a solution can't be found when
|
||
version solving fails.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.42.0
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### dart2js
|
||
|
||
* Fixed bug where dart2js crashed when invoked from `pub build` and `pub serve`
|
||
when given files that contain non-ASCII characters ([issue 32561][sdk#32561]).
|
||
|
||
* Fixed `--no-frequency-based-minification`, which was not working together with
|
||
the common front-end ([issue 32600][sdk#32600]).
|
||
|
||
* Support `--categories=Server` with the common front-end. This included also
|
||
fixes for the constant value `bool.fromEnvironment("*")` of
|
||
"dart.libraries.io", "dart.libraries.mirrors", "dart.libraries.isolate", and
|
||
"dart.libraries.html".
|
||

||

|
||
[sdk#32600]: https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/32600
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
* Pub will now automatically retry HTTP requests that fail with an IO error
|
||
([issue 1826][pub#1826]).
|
||
|
||
* `pub deps` now includes the SDK version. This makes the output more helpful
|
||
when included in bug reports ([issue 1827][pub#1827]).
|
||
|
||
* `build` and `serve` now print a deprecation warning pointing users to
|
||
https://webdev.dartlang.org/dart-2 ([issue 1823][pub#1823]).
|
||
|
||
[pub#1823]: https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/issues/1823
|
||
[pub#1826]: https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/issues/1826
|
||
[pub#1827]: https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/issues/1827
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.41.0
|
||
|
||
Not released, due to a failure in the pub tool.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.40.0
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* The Web libraries were re-genereated using Chrome 63 WebIDLs.
|
||
See https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/wiki/Chrome-63-Dart-Web-Libraries for
|
||
details.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.39.0
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
* Fixed bug in dart2js transformer when using the common front-end.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.37.0
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### dart2js
|
||
|
||
* The dart2js compiler now uses the common front-end by default. This is a
|
||
step towards supporting Dart 2.0. At this time dart2js has no semantic
|
||
changes: the Dart 2.0 strong-mode semantics are not enabled, so dart2js
|
||
continues to support the Dart 1 type system. This change however lets us
|
||
start supporting new syntactic features of Dart 2.0, like optional
|
||
new/const. With this change you may notice:
|
||
|
||
* small code differences (~1% code size): some code is generated slightly
|
||
different, this is expected because the internal representation of the
|
||
program has small differences between the old and new front end.
|
||
|
||
* source-maps changes: with the new front-end, dart2js also is using a new
|
||
mechanism to generate source-map files. We don't expect big differences
|
||
here either, the new source-maps try to encode more data for locations
|
||
that are commonly used during debugging.
|
||
|
||
* some missing errors: the CFE is not complete and may not report some
|
||
static errors that the old front-end did. This is temporary. If you run
|
||
the analyzer on all your project already, you may never notice those
|
||
missing error messages.
|
||
|
||
* as announced earlier, this is the first version of dart2js that no longer
|
||
supports `dart:mirrors`.
|
||
|
||
* this is the first version of dart2js that no longer supports
|
||
`--package-root`, which long ago was deprecated in favor of `--packages`.
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
* dart2js transformer runs with the common front-end.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0-dev.36.0
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* Temporarily disabled the `whereType` method until generic methods are
|
||
enabled on all platforms
|
||
([issue 32463](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/32463)).
|
||
* Changed return type of `UriData.dataAsBytes` to `Uint8List`.
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* Added `jsonEncode`, `jsonDecode`, `base64Encode`, `base64UrlEncode` and
|
||
`base64Decode` top-level functions.
|
||
* Changed return type of `encode` on `AsciiCodec` and `Latin1Codec`,
|
||
and `convert` on `AsciiEncoder`, `Latin1Encoder`, to `Uint8List`.
|
||
|
||
## 2.0.0
|
||
|
||
### Language
|
||
* A string in a `part of` declaration may now be used to refer to the library
|
||
this file is part of.
|
||
A library part can now declare its library either as:
|
||
`part of name.of.library;` or as `part of "uriReferenceOfLibrary.dart";`.
|
||
This allows libraries with no library declarations (and therefore no name)
|
||
to have parts, and it allows tools to easily find the library of a part
|
||
file.
|
||
* Added support for starting `async` functions synchronously. All tools (VM,
|
||
dart2js, DDC) have now a flag `--sync-async` to enable this behavior.
|
||
Currently this behavior is opt-in. It will become the default.
|
||
* The type `void` is now a Top type like `dynamic`, and `Object`. It also now
|
||
has new errors for being used where not allowed (such as being assigned to any
|
||
non-`void`-typed parameter). Some libraries (importantly, mockito) may need to
|
||
be updated to accept void values to keep their APIs working.
|
||
|
||
#### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* Future flattening is now done only as specified in the Dart 2.0 spec, rather
|
||
than more broadly. This means that the following code will now have an error on
|
||
the assignment to `y`.
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
test() {
|
||
Future<int> f;
|
||
var x = f.then<Future<List<int>>>((x) => []);
|
||
Future<List<int>> y = x;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
|
||
* `Stream`:
|
||
* Added `cast`, `castFrom`, and `retype`.
|
||
* Changed `firstWhere`, `lastWhere`, and `singleWhere` to return `Future<T>`
|
||
and added an optional `T orElse()` callback.
|
||
* `StreamTransformer`: added `cast`, `castFrom`, `retype`.
|
||
* `StreamTransformerBase`: new class.
|
||
* `Timer`: added `tick` property.
|
||
* `Zone`
|
||
* changed to be strong-mode clean.
|
||
This required some breaking API changes.
|
||
See https://goo.gl/y9mW2x for more information.
|
||
* Added `bindBinaryCallbackGuarded`, `bindCallbackGuarded`, and
|
||
`bindUnaryCallbackGuarded`.
|
||
* Renamed `Zone.ROOT` to `Zone.root`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:cli`
|
||
|
||
* *New* "provisional" library for CLI-specific features.
|
||
|
||
* `waitFor`: function that suspends a stack to wait for a `Future` to
|
||
complete.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:collection`
|
||
|
||
* `MapBase`: added `mapToString`.
|
||
* `LinkedHashMap` no longer implements `HashMap`
|
||
* `LinkedHashSet` no longer implements `HashSet`.
|
||
* Added `of` constructor to `Queue`, `ListQueue`,
|
||
`DoubleLinkedQueue`, `HashSet`, `LinkedHashSet`, `SplayTreeSet`,
|
||
`Map`, `HashMap`, `LinkedHashMap`, `SplayTreeMap`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
|
||
* `Base64Codec.decode` return type is now `Uint8List`.
|
||
* `JsonUnsupportedObjectError`: added `partialResult` property
|
||
* `LineSplitter` now implements `StreamTransformer<String, String>` instead of
|
||
`Converter`.
|
||
It retains `Converter` methods `convert` and `startChunkedConversion`.
|
||
* `Utf8Decoder` when compiled with dart2js uses the browser's `TextDecoder` in
|
||
some common cases for faster decoding.
|
||
* Renamed `ASCII`, `BASE64`, `BASE64URI`, `JSON`, `LATIN1` and `UTF8` to
|
||
`ascii`, `base64`, `base64Uri`, `json`, `latin1` and `utf8`.
|
||
* Renamed the `HtmlEscapeMode` constants `UNKNOWN`, `ATTRIBUTE`,
|
||
`SQ_ATTRIBUTE` and `ELEMENT` to `unknown`, `attribute`, `sqAttribute` and
|
||
`elements`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
|
||
* `BigInt` class added to support integers greater than 64-bits.
|
||
* Deprecated the `proxy` annotation.
|
||
* Added `Provisional` class and `provisional` field.
|
||
* Added `pragma` annotation.
|
||
* `RegExp` added static `escape` function.
|
||
* The `Uri` class now correctly handles paths while running on Node.js on
|
||
Windows.
|
||
* Core collection changes
|
||
* `Iterable` added members `cast`, `castFrom`, `followedBy`, `retype` and
|
||
`whereType`.
|
||
* `Iterable.singleWhere` added `orElse` parameter.
|
||
* `List` added `+` operator, `first` and `last` setters, and `indexWhere`
|
||
and `lastIndexWhere` methods, and static `copyRange` and `writeIterable`
|
||
methods.
|
||
* `Map` added `fromEntries` constructor.
|
||
* `Map` added `addEntries`, `cast`, `entries`, `map`, `removeWhere`,
|
||
`retype`, `update` and `updateAll` members.
|
||
* `MapEntry`: new class used by `Map.entries`.
|
||
* *Note*: if a class extends `IterableBase`, `ListBase`, `SetBase` or
|
||
`MapBase` (or uses the corresponding mixins) from `dart:collection`, the
|
||
new members are implemented automatically.
|
||
* Added `of` constructor to `List`, `Set`, `Map`.
|
||
* Renamed `double.INFINITY`, `double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY`, `double.NAN`,
|
||
`double.MAX_FINITE` and `double.MIN_POSITIVE`
|
||
to `double.infinity`, `double.negativeInfinity`, `double.nan`,
|
||
`double.maxFinite` and `double.minPositive`.
|
||
* Renamed the following constants in `DateTime` to lower case:
|
||
`MONDAY` through `SUNDAY`, `DAYS_PER_WEEK` (as `daysPerWeek`),
|
||
`JANUARY` through `DECEMBER` and `MONTHS_PER_YEAR` (as `monthsPerYear`).
|
||
* Renamed the following constants in `Duration` to lower case:
|
||
`MICROSECONDS_PER_MILLISECOND` to `microsecondsPerMillisecond`,
|
||
`MILLISECONDS_PER_SECOND` to `millisecondsPerSecond`,
|
||
`SECONDS_PER_MINUTE` to `secondsPerMinute`,
|
||
`MINUTES_PER_HOUR` to `minutesPerHour`,
|
||
`HOURS_PER_DAY` to `hoursPerDay`,
|
||
`MICROSECONDS_PER_SECOND` to `microsecondsPerSecond`,
|
||
`MICROSECONDS_PER_MINUTE` to `microsecondsPerMinute`,
|
||
`MICROSECONDS_PER_HOUR` to `microsecondsPerHour`,
|
||
`MICROSECONDS_PER_DAY` to `microsecondsPerDay`,
|
||
`MILLISECONDS_PER_MINUTE` to `millisecondsPerMinute`,
|
||
`MILLISECONDS_PER_HOUR` to `millisecondsPerHour`,
|
||
`MILLISECONDS_PER_DAY` to `millisecondsPerDay`,
|
||
`SECONDS_PER_HOUR` to `secondsPerHour`,
|
||
`SECONDS_PER_DAY` to `secondsPerDay`,
|
||
`MINUTES_PER_DAY` to `minutesPerDay`, and
|
||
`ZERO` to `zero`.
|
||
* Added `typeArguments` to `Invocation` class.
|
||
* Added constructors to invocation class that allows creation of
|
||
`Invocation` objects directly, without going through `noSuchMethod`.
|
||
* Added `unaryMinus` and `empty` constant symbols on the `Symbol` class.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:developer`
|
||
|
||
* `Flow` class added.
|
||
* `Timeline.startSync` and `Timeline.timeSync` now accept an optional
|
||
parameter `flow` of type `Flow`. The `flow` parameter is used to generate
|
||
flow timeline events that are enclosed by the slice described by
|
||
`Timeline.{start,finish}Sync` and `Timeline.timeSync`.
|
||
|
||
<!--

||
Still need entries for all changes to dart:html since 1.x
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
|
||
* `HttpStatus` added `UPGRADE_REQUIRED`.
|
||
* `IOOverrides` and `HttpOverrides` added to aid in writing tests that wish to
|
||
mock varios `dart:io` objects.
|
||
* `Platform.operatingSystemVersion` added that gives a platform-specific
|
||
String describing the version of the operating system.
|
||
* `ProcessStartMode.INHERIT_STDIO` added, which allows a child process to
|
||
inherit the parent's stdio handles.
|
||
* `RawZLibFilter` added for low-level access to compression and
|
||
decompression routines.
|
||
* Unified backends for `SecureSocket`, `SecurityContext`, and
|
||
`X509Certificate` to be consistent across all platforms. All
|
||
`SecureSocket`, `SecurityContext`, and `X509Certificate` properties and
|
||
methods are now supported on iOS and OSX.
|
||
* `SecurityContext.alpnSupported` deprecated as ALPN is now supported on all
|
||
platforms.
|
||
* `SecurityContext`: added `withTrustedRoots` named optional parameter
|
||
constructor, which defaults to false.
|
||
* Added a `timeout` parameter to `Socket.connect`, `RawSocket.connect`,
|
||
`SecureSocket.connect` and `RawSecureSocket.connect`. If a connection attempt
|
||
takes longer than the duration specified in `timeout`, a `SocketException`
|
||
will be thrown. Note: if the duration specified in `timeout` is greater than
|
||
the OS level timeout, a timeout may occur sooner than specified in
|
||
`timeout`.
|
||
* `Stdin.hasTerminal` added, which is true if stdin is attached to a terminal.
|
||
* `WebSocket` added static `userAgent` property.
|
||
* `RandomAccessFile.close` returns `Future<void>`
|
||
|
||
* `dart:isolate`
|
||
|
||
* Make `Isolate.spawn` take a type parameter representing the argument type
|
||
of the provided function. This allows functions with arguments types other
|
||
than `Object` in strong mode.
|
||
* Rename `IMMEDIATE` and `BEFORE_NEXT_EVENT` on `Isolate` to `immediate` and
|
||
`beforeNextEvent`.
|
||
|
||
<!--

|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
* `dart.math`
|
||
|
||
* Renamed `E`, `LN10`, `LN`, `LOG2E`, `LOG10E`, `PI`, `SQRT1_2` and `SQRT2`
|
||
to `e`, `ln10`, `ln`, `log2e`, `log10e`, `pi`, `sqrt1_2` and `sqrt2`.
|
||
|
||
<!--
|
||
Still need entries for all changes to dart:svg since 1.x
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
* `dart:typed_data`
|
||
|
||
* Added `Unmodifiable` view classes over all `List` types.
|
||
* Renamed `BYTES_PER_ELEMENT` to `bytesPerElement` on all typed data lists.
|
||
* Renamed constants `XXXX` through `WWWW` on `Float32x4` and `Int32x4` to
|
||
lower-case `xxxx` through `wwww`.
|
||
* Renamed `Endinanness` to `Endian` and its constants from
|
||
`BIG_ENDIAN`, `LITTLE_ENDIAN` and `HOST_ENDIAN` to
|
||
`little`, `big` and `host`.
|
||
|

||
-->
|
||
|
||
### Dart VM
|
||
|
||
* Support for MIPS has been removed.
|
||
|
||
* Dart `int` is now restricted to 64 bits. On overflow, arithmetic operations wrap
|
||
around, and integer literals larger than 64 bits are not allowed.
|
||
See https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/blob/master/docs/language/informal/int64.md
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
#### Analyzer
|
||
|
||
* The analyzer will no longer issue a warning when a generic type parameter
|
||
is used as the type in an instance check. For example:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
test<T>() {
|
||
print(3 is T); // No warning
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* New static checking of `@visibleForTesting` elements. Accessing a method,
|
||
function, class, etc. annotated with `@visibleForTesting` from a file _not_
|
||
in a `test/` directory will result in a new hint ([issue 28273]).
|
||
* Static analysis now respects functions annotated with `@alwaysThrows`
|
||
([issue 31384]).
|
||
* New hints added:
|
||
* `NULL_AWARE_BEFORE_OPERATOR` when an operator is used after a null-aware
|
||
access. For example:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
x?.a - ''; // HINT
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* `NULL_AWARE_IN_LOGICAL_OPERATOR` when an expression with null-aware access
|
||
is used as a condition in logical operators. For example:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
x.a || x?.b; // HINT
|
||
```

|
||
[issue 31384]: https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/31384
|
||
|
||
#### Pub
|
||
|
||
##### SDK Constraints
|
||
|
||
There is now a default SDK constraint of `<2.0.0` for any package with no
|
||
existing upper bound. This allows us to move more safely to 2.0.0. All new
|
||
packages published on pub will now require an upper bound SDK constraint so
|
||
future major releases of Dart don't destabilize the package ecosystem.
|
||
|
||
All SDK constraint exclusive upper bounds are now treated as though they allow
|
||
pre-release versions of that upper bound. For example, the SDK constraint
|
||
`>=1.8.0 <2.0.0` now allows pre-release SDK versions such as `2.0.0-beta.3.0`.
|
||
This allows early adopters to try out packages that don't explicitly declare
|
||
support for the new version yet. You can disable this functionality by setting
|
||
the `PUB_ALLOW_PRERELEASE_SDK` environment variable to `false`.
|
||
|
||
##### Other Features
|
||
|
||
* Git dependencies may now include a `path` parameter, indicating that the
|
||
package exists in a subdirectory of the Git repository. For example:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
dependencies:
|
||
foobar:
|
||
git:
|
||
url: git://github.com/dart-lang/multi_package_repo
|
||
path: pkg/foobar
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Added an `--executables` option to `pub deps` command. This will list all
|
||
available executables that can be run with `pub run`.
|
||
|
||
* Added a `PUB_MAX_WORKERS_PER_TASK` environment variable which can be set to
|
||
configure the number of dartdevc/analyzer workers that are used when compiling
|
||
with `--web-compiler=dartdevc`.
|
||
|
||
* The Flutter `sdk` source will now look for packages in
|
||
`flutter/bin/cache/pkg/` as well as `flutter/packages/`. In particular, this
|
||
means that packages can depend on the `sky_engine` package from the `sdk`
|
||
source ([issue 1775][pub#1775]).
|
||
|
||
* Pub will now automatically retry HTTP requests that fail with a 502, 503, of
|
||
504 error code ([issue 1556][pub#1556]).
|
||
|
||
* Pub now caches compiled packages and snapshots in the `.dart_tool/pub`
|
||
directory, rather than the `.pub` directory ([issue 1795][pub#1795]).
|
||
|
||
* Emit exit code 66 when a path dependency doesn't exist ([issue 1747][pub#1747]).
|
||
|
||
* `pub publish` throws a more explicit error if the `publish_to` field isn't an
|
||
absolute URL ([issue 1769][pub#1769]).
|
||
|
||
* `pub publish` provides more detailed information if the package is too large
|
||
to upload.

||
##### Bug Fixes
|
||
|
||
* Added a `--build-delay` argument to `pub serve` which sets the amount of time
|
||
(in ms) to wait between file watcher events before scheduling a build.
|
||
Defaults to 50.
|
||
|
||
* `pub get` and `pub upgrade` properly produce an error message and exit code
|
||
when no network is present.
|
||
|
||
* `pub serve` now waits for file watcher events to stabilize before scheduling
|
||
new builds. This helps specifically with `safe-write` features in editors,
|
||
as well as other situations such as `save all` which cause many fast edits.
|
||
|
||
* Removed the require.js module loading timeout for dartdevc, which resolves an
|
||
issue where the initial load of an app might give a timeout error.
|
||
|
||
* Root package analysis options are no longer enforced for dependencies when
|
||
compiling with dartdevc ([issue 1684][pub#1684]).
|
||
|
||
* Dart scripts can be included from subdirectories with dartdevc
|
||
([issue 30246][]).
|
||
|
||
* The `barback` infrastructure now supports `async` 2.0.0.
|
||
|
||
* Print a more informative error message when the Flutter SDK isn't
|
||
available ([issue 1719][pub#1719]).
|
||
|
||
* Don't crash when publishing a package that contains an empty submodule
|
||
([issue 1679][pub#1679]).
|
||
|
||
* Emit exit code 69 for TLS errors ([issue 1729][pub#1729]).
|
||
|
||
* Fix `pub global run` for packages activated from a local path that also have
|
||
relative path dependencies ([issue 1751][pub#1751]).
|
||
|
||
* `pub build` and `pub serve` support using the common front-end in the dart2js
|
||
transformer.

|
||
#### Other Tools
|
||
|
||
* dartfmt
|
||
|
||
* Support assert in const constructor initializer lists.
|
||
* Better formatting for multi-line strings in argument lists.
|
||
wasn't in a Git repository.
|
||
|
||
* Dart Dev Compiler
|
||
|
||
* dartdevc will no longer throw an error from `is` checks that return a
|
||
different result in weak mode
|
||
(SDK issue [28988](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28988)).
|
||
For example:
|
||
```dart
|
||
main() {
|
||
List l = [];
|
||
// Prints "false", does not throw.
|
||
print(l is List<String>);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 1.24.3 - 14-12-2017
|
||
|
||
* Fix for constructing a new SecurityContext that contains the built-in
|
||
certificate authority roots
|
||
([issue 24693](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/24693)).
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Unified backends for `SecureSocket`, `SecurityContext`, and
|
||
`X509Certificate` to be consistent across all platforms. All
|
||
`SecureSocket`, `SecurityContext`, and `X509Certificate` properties and
|
||
methods are now supported on iOS and OSX.
|
||
|
||
## 1.24.2 - 22-06-2017
|
||
|
||
* Fixes for debugging in Dartium.
|
||
* Fix DevConsole crash with JS
|
||
([issue 29873](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/29873)).
|
||
* Fix debugging in WebStorm, NULL returned for JS objects
|
||
([issue 29854](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/29854)).
|
||
|
||
## 1.24.1 - 14-06-2017
|
||
|
||
* Bug fixes for dartdevc support in `pub serve`.
|
||
* Fixed module config invalidation logic so modules are properly
|
||
recalculated when package layout changes.
|
||
* Fixed exception when handling require.js errors that aren't script load
|
||
errors.
|
||
* Fixed an issue where requesting the bootstrap.js file before the dart.js
|
||
file would result in a 404.
|
||
* Fixed a Safari issue during bootstrapping (note that Safari is still not
|
||
officially supported but does work for trivial examples).
|
||
* Fix for a Dartium issue where there was no sound in checked mode
|
||
([issue 29810](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/29810)).
|
||
|
||
## 1.24.0 - 12-06-2017
|
||
|
||
### Language
|
||
* During a dynamic type check, `void` is not required to be `null` anymore.
|
||
In practice, this makes overriding `void` functions with non-`void` functions
|
||
safer.
|
||
|
||
* During static analysis, a function or setter declared using `=>` with return
|
||
type `void` now allows the returned expression to have any type. For example,
|
||
assuming the declaration `int x;`, it is now type correct to have
|
||
`void f() => ++x;`.
|
||
|
||
* A new function-type syntax has been added to the language.
|
||
**Warning**: *In Dart 1.24, this feature is incomplete, and not stable in the Analyzer.*
|
||
|
||
Intuitively, the type of a function can be constructed by textually replacing
|
||
the function's name with `Function` in its declaration. For instance, the
|
||
type of `void foo() {}` would be `void Function()`. The new syntax may be used
|
||
wherever a type can be written. It is thus now possible to declare fields
|
||
containing functions without needing to write typedefs: `void Function() x;`.
|
||
The new function type has one restriction: it may not contain the old-style
|
||
function-type syntax for its parameters. The following is thus illegal:
|
||
`void Function(int f())`.
|
||
`typedefs` have been updated to support this new syntax.
|
||
|
||
Examples:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
typedef F = void Function(); // F is the name for a `void` callback.
|
||
int Function(int) f; // A field `f` that contains an int->int function.
|
||
|
||
class A<T> {
|
||
// The parameter `callback` is a function that takes a `T` and returns
|
||
// `void`.
|
||
void forEach(void Function(T) callback);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
// The new function type supports generic arguments.
|
||
typedef Invoker = T Function<T>(T Function() callback);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:async`, `dart:core`, `dart:io`
|
||
* Adding to a closed sink, including `IOSink`, is no longer not allowed. In
|
||
1.24, violations are only reported (on stdout or stderr), but a future
|
||
version of the Dart SDK will change this to throwing a `StateError`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* **BREAKING** Removed the deprecated `ChunkedConverter` class.
|
||
* JSON maps are now typed as `Map<String, dynamic>` instead of
|
||
`Map<dynamic, dynamic>`. A JSON-map is not a `HashMap` or `LinkedHashMap`
|
||
anymore (but just a `Map`).
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `Platform.localeName`, needed for accessing the locale on platforms
|
||
that don't store it in an environment variable.
|
||
* Added `ProcessInfo.currentRss` and `ProcessInfo.maxRss` for inspecting
|
||
the Dart VM process current and peak resident set size.
|
||
* Added `RawSynchronousSocket`, a basic synchronous socket implementation.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:` web APIs have been updated to align with Chrome v50.
|
||
This change includes **a large number of changes**, many of which are
|
||
breaking. In some cases, new class names may conflict with names that exist
|
||
in existing code.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:html`
|
||
|
||
* **REMOVED** classes: `Bluetooth`, `BluetoothDevice`,
|
||
`BluetoothGattCharacteristic`, `BluetoothGattRemoteServer`,
|
||
`BluetoothGattService`, `BluetoothUuid`, `CrossOriginConnectEvent`,
|
||
`DefaultSessionStartEvent`, `DomSettableTokenList`, `MediaKeyError`,
|
||
`PeriodicSyncEvent`, `PluginPlaceholderElement`, `ReadableStream`,
|
||
`StashedMessagePort`, `SyncRegistration`
|
||
|
||
* **REMOVED** members:
|
||
* `texImage2DCanvas` was removed from `RenderingContext`.
|
||
* `endClip` and `startClip` were removed from `Animation`.
|
||
* `after` and `before` were removed from `CharacterData`, `ChildNode` and
|
||
`Element`.
|
||
* `keyLocation` was removed from `KeyboardEvent`. Use `location` instead.
|
||
* `generateKeyRequest`, `keyAddedEvent`, `keyErrorEvent`, `keyMessageEvent`,
|
||
`mediaGroup`, `needKeyEvent`, `onKeyAdded`, `onKeyError`, `onKeyMessage`,
|
||
and `onNeedKey` were removed from `MediaElement`.
|
||
* `getStorageUpdates` was removed from `Navigator`
|
||
* `status` was removed from `PermissionStatus`
|
||
* `getAvailability` was removed from `PreElement`
|
||
|
||
* Other behavior changes:
|
||
* URLs returned in CSS or html are formatted with quoted string.
|
||
Like `url("http://google.com")` instead of `url(http://google.com)`.
|
||
* Event timestamp property type changed from `int` to `num`.
|
||
* Chrome introduced slight layout changes of UI objects.
|
||
In addition many height/width dimensions are returned in subpixel values
|
||
(`num` instead of whole numbers).
|
||
* `setRangeText` with a `selectionMode` value of 'invalid' is no longer
|
||
valid. Only "select", "start", "end", "preserve" are allowed.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:svg`
|
||
|
||
* A large number of additions and removals. Review your use of `dart:svg`
|
||
carefully.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:web_audio`
|
||
|
||
* new method on `AudioContext` – `createIirFilter` returns a new class
|
||
`IirFilterNode`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:web_gl`
|
||
|
||
* new classes: `CompressedTextureAstc`, `ExtColorBufferFloat`,
|
||
`ExtDisjointTimerQuery`, and `TimerQueryExt`.
|
||
|
||
* `ExtFragDepth` added: `readPixels2` and `texImage2D2`.
|
||
|
||
#### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* Removed ad hoc `Future.then` inference in favor of using `FutureOr`. Prior to
|
||
adding `FutureOr` to the language, the analyzer implented an ad hoc type
|
||
inference for `Future.then` (and overrides) treating it as if the onValue
|
||
callback was typed to return `FutureOr` for the purposes of inference.
|
||
This ad hoc inference has been removed now that `FutureOr` has been added.
|
||
|
||
Packages that implement `Future` must either type the `onValue` parameter to
|
||
`.then` as returning `FutureOr<T>`, or else must leave the type of the parameter
|
||
entirely to allow inference to fill in the type.
|
||
|
||
* During static analysis, a function or setter declared using `=>` with return
|
||
type `void` now allows the returned expression to have any type.
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
* Dartium
|
||
|
||
Dartium is now based on Chrome v50. See *Core library changes* above for
|
||
details on the changed APIs.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
|
||
* `pub build` and `pub serve`
|
||
|
||
* Added support for the Dart Development Compiler.
|
||
|
||
Unlike dart2js, this new compiler is modular, which allows pub to do
|
||
incremental re-builds for `pub serve`, and potentially `pub build` in the
|
||
future.
|
||
|
||
In practice what that means is you can edit your Dart files, refresh in
|
||
Chrome (or other supported browsers), and see your edits almost
|
||
immediately. This is because pub is only recompiling your package, not all
|
||
packages that you depend on.
|
||
|
||
There is one caveat with the new compiler, which is that your package and
|
||
your dependencies must all be strong mode clean. If you are getting an
|
||
error compiling one of your dependencies, you will need to file bugs or
|
||
send pull requests to get them strong mode clean.
|
||
|
||
There are two ways of opting into the new compiler:
|
||
|
||
* Use the new `--web-compiler` flag, which supports `dartdevc`,
|
||
`dart2js` or `none` as options. This is the easiest way to try things
|
||
out without changing the default.
|
||
|
||
* Add config to your pubspec. There is a new `web` key which supports a
|
||
single key called `compiler`. This is a map from mode names to
|
||
compiler to use. For example, to default to dartdevc in debug mode you
|
||
can add the following to your pubspec:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
web:
|
||
compiler:
|
||
debug: dartdevc
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can also use the new compiler to run your tests in Chrome much more
|
||
quickly than you can with dart2js. In order to do that, run
|
||
`pub serve test --web-compiler=dartdevc`, and then run
|
||
`pub run test -p chrome --pub-serve=8080`.
|
||
|
||
* The `--no-dart2js` flag has been deprecated in favor of
|
||
`--web-compiler=none`.
|
||
|
||
* `pub build` will use a failing exit code if there are errors in any
|
||
transformer.
|
||
|
||
* `pub publish`
|
||
|
||
* Added support for the UNLICENSE file.
|
||
|
||
* Packages that depend on the Flutter SDK may be published.
|
||
|
||
* `pub get` and `pub upgrade`
|
||
|
||
* Don't dump a stack trace when a network error occurs while fetching
|
||
packages.
|
||
|
||
* dartfmt
|
||
* Preserve type parameters in new generic function typedef syntax.
|
||
* Add self-test validation to ensure formatter bugs do not cause user code
|
||
to be lost.
|
||
|
||
### Infrastructure changes
|
||
|
||
* As of this release, we'll show a warning when using the MIPS architecture.
|
||
Unless we learn about any critical use of Dart on MIPS in the meantime, we're
|
||
planning to deprecate support for MIPS starting with the next stable release.
|
||
|
||
## 1.23.0 - 2017-04-21
|
||
|
||
#### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - it is now a strong mode error if a mixin causes a name
|
||
conflict between two private members (field/getter/setter/method) from a
|
||
different library. (SDK
|
||
issue [28809](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28809)).
|
||
|
||
lib1.dart:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class A {
|
||
int _x;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
class B {
|
||
int _x;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
lib2.dart:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
import 'lib1.dart';
|
||
|
||
class C extends A with B {}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
error • The private name _x, defined by B, conflicts with the same name defined by A at tmp/lib2.dart:3:24 • private_collision_in_mixin_application
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - strong mode will prefer the expected type to infer generic
|
||
types, functions, and methods (SDK
|
||
issue [27586](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27586)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
main() {
|
||
List<Object> foo = /*infers: <Object>*/['hello', 'world'];
|
||
var bar = /*infers: <String>*/['hello', 'world'];
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Strong mode inference error messages are improved
|
||
(SDK issue [29108](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/29108)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
import 'dart:math';
|
||
test(Iterable/* fix is to add <num> here */ values) {
|
||
num n = values.fold(values.first as num, max);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
Now produces the error on the generic function "max":
|
||
```
|
||
Couldn't infer type parameter 'T'.
|
||
|
||
Tried to infer 'dynamic' for 'T' which doesn't work:
|
||
Function type declared as '<T extends num>(T, T) → T'
|
||
used where '(num, dynamic) → num' is required.
|
||
|
||
Consider passing explicit type argument(s) to the generic.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Strong mode supports overriding fields, `@virtual` is no longer required
|
||
(SDK issue [28120](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28120)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class C {
|
||
int x = 42;
|
||
}
|
||
class D extends C {
|
||
get x {
|
||
print("x got called");
|
||
return super.x;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
main() {
|
||
print(new D().x);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Strong mode down cast composite warnings are no longer issued by default.
|
||
(SDK issue [28588](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28588)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
void test() {
|
||
List untyped = [];
|
||
List<int> typed = untyped; // No down cast composite warning
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To opt back into the warnings, add the following to
|
||
the
|
||
[.analysis_options](https://www.dartlang.org/guides/language/analysis-options)
|
||
file for your project.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
analyzer:
|
||
errors:
|
||
strong_mode_down_cast_composite: warning
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* Added `Uri.isScheme` function to check the scheme of a URI.
|
||
Example: `uri.isScheme("http")`. Ignores case when comparing.
|
||
* Make `UriData.parse` validate its input better.
|
||
If the data is base-64 encoded, the data is normalized wrt.
|
||
alphabet and padding, and it contains invalid base-64 data,
|
||
parsing fails. Also normalizes non-base-64 data.
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added functions `File.lastAccessed`, `File.lastAccessedSync`,
|
||
`File.setLastModified`, `File.setLastModifiedSync`, `File.setLastAccessed`,
|
||
and `File.setLastAccessedSync`.
|
||
* Added `{Stdin,Stdout}.supportsAnsiEscapes`.
|
||
|
||
### Dart VM
|
||
|
||
* Calls to `print()` and `Stdout.write*()` now correctly print unicode
|
||
characters to the console on Windows. Calls to `Stdout.add*()` behave as
|
||
before.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Analysis
|
||
* `dartanalyzer` now follows the same rules as the analysis server to find
|
||
an analysis options file, stopping when an analysis options file is found:
|
||
* Search up the directory hierarchy looking for an analysis options file.
|
||
* If analyzing a project referencing the [Flutter](https://flutter.io/)
|
||
package, then use the
|
||
[default Flutter analysis options](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/packages/flutter/lib/analysis_options_user.yaml)
|
||
found in `package:flutter`.
|
||
* If in a Bazel workspace, then use the analysis options in
|
||
`package:dart.analysis_options/default.yaml` if it exists.
|
||
* Use the default analysis options rules.
|
||
* In addition, specific to `dartanalyzer`:
|
||
* an analysis options file can be specified on the command line via
|
||
`--options` and that file will be used instead of searching for an
|
||
analysis options file.
|
||
* any analysis option specified on the command line
|
||
(e.g. `--strong` or `--no-strong`) takes precedence over any corresponding
|
||
value specified in the analysis options file.
|
||
|
||
* Dartium, dart2js, and DDC
|
||
|
||
* Imports to `dart:io` are allowed, but the imported library is not supported
|
||
and will likely fail on most APIs at runtime. This change was made as a
|
||
stopgap measure to make it easier to write libraries that share code between
|
||
platforms (like package `http`). This might change again when configuration
|
||
specific imports are supported.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
* Now sends telemetry data to `pub.dartlang.org` to allow better understanding
|
||
of why a particular package is being accessed.
|
||
* `pub publish`
|
||
* Warns if a package imports a package that's not a dependency from within
|
||
`lib/` or `bin/`, or a package that's not a dev dependency from within
|
||
`benchmark/`, `example/`, `test/` or `tool/`.
|
||
* No longer produces "UID too large" errors on OS X. All packages are now
|
||
uploaded with the user and group names set to "pub".
|
||
* No longer fails with a stack overflow when uploading a package that uses
|
||
Git submodules.
|
||
* `pub get` and `pub upgrade`
|
||
* Produce more informative error messages if they're run directly in a
|
||
package that uses Flutter.
|
||
* Properly unlock SDK and path dependencies if they have a new version
|
||
that's also valid according to the user's pubspec.
|
||
|
||
* dartfmt
|
||
* Support new generic function typedef syntax.
|
||
* Make the precedence of cascades more visible.
|
||
* Fix a couple of places where spurious newlines were inserted.
|
||
* Correctly report unchanged formatting when reading from stdin.
|
||
* Ensure space between `-` and `--`. Code that does this is pathological, but
|
||
it technically meant dartfmt could change the semantics of the code.
|
||
* Preserve a blank line between enum cases.
|
||
* Other small formatting tweaks.

## 1.22.1 - 2017-02-22
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves two issues:
|
||
* Dart VM crash: [Issue 28072](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28757)
|
||
|
||
* Dart VM bug combining types, await, and deferred loading: [Issue 28678](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28678)
|
||
|
||
|
||
## 1.22.0 - 2017-02-14
|
||
|
||
### Language
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change:
|
||
['Generalized tear-offs'](https://github.com/gbracha/generalizedTearOffs/blob/master/proposal.md)
|
||
are no longer supported, and will cause errors. We updated the language spec
|
||
and added warnings in 1.21, and are now taking the last step to fully
|
||
de-support them. They were previously only supported in the VM, and there
|
||
are almost no known uses of them in the wild.
|
||
|
||
* The `assert()` statement has been expanded to support an optional second
|
||
`message` argument
|
||
(SDK issue [27342](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27342)).
|
||
|
||
The message is displayed if the assert fails. It can be any object, and it
|
||
is accessible as `AssertionError.message`. It can be used to provide more
|
||
user friendly exception outputs. As an example, the following assert:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
assert(configFile != null, "Tool config missing. Please see https://goo.gl/k8iAi for details.");
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
would produce the following exception output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Unhandled exception:
|
||
'file:///Users/mit/tmp/tool/bin/main.dart': Failed assertion: line 9 pos 10:
|
||
'configFile != null': Tool config missing. Please see https://goo.gl/k8iAi for details.
|
||
#0 _AssertionError._doThrowNew (dart:core-patch/errors_patch.dart:33)
|
||
#1 _AssertionError._throwNew (dart:core-patch/errors_patch.dart:29)
|
||
#2 main (file:///Users/mit/tmp/tool/bin/main.dart:9:10)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* The `Null` type has been moved to the bottom of the type hierarchy. As such,
|
||
it is considered a subtype of every other type. The `null` *literal* was
|
||
always treated as a bottom type. Now the named class `Null` is too:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
const empty = <Null>[];
|
||
|
||
String concatenate(List<String> parts) => parts.join();
|
||
int sum(List<int> numbers) => numbers.fold(0, (sum, n) => sum + n);
|
||
|
||
concatenate(empty); // OK.
|
||
sum(empty); // OK.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Introduce `covariant` modifier on parameters. It indicates that the
|
||
parameter (and the corresponding parameter in any method that overrides it)
|
||
has looser override rules. In strong mode, these require a runtime type
|
||
check to maintain soundness, but enable an architectural pattern that is
|
||
useful in some code.
|
||
|
||
It lets you specialize a family of classes together, like so:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
abstract class Predator {
|
||
void chaseAndEat(covariant Prey p);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
abstract class Prey {}
|
||
|
||
class Mouse extends Prey {}
|
||
|
||
class Seal extends Prey {}
|
||
|
||
class Cat extends Predator {
|
||
void chaseAndEat(Mouse m) => ...
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
class Orca extends Predator {
|
||
void chaseAndEat(Seal s) => ...
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This isn't statically safe, because you could do:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
Predator predator = new Cat(); // Upcast.
|
||
predator.chaseAndEat(new Seal()); // Cats can't eat seals!
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To preserve soundness in strong mode, in the body of a method that uses a
|
||
covariant override (here, `Cat.chaseAndEat()`), the compiler automatically
|
||
inserts a check that the parameter is of the expected type. So the compiler
|
||
gives you something like:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class Cat extends Predator {
|
||
void chaseAndEat(o) {
|
||
var m = o as Mouse;
|
||
...
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Spec mode allows this unsound behavior on all parameters, even though users
|
||
rarely rely on it. Strong mode disallowed it initially. Now, strong mode
|
||
lets you opt into this behavior in the places where you do want it by using
|
||
this modifier. Outside of strong mode, the modifier is ignored.
|
||
|
||
* Change instantiate-to-bounds rules for generic type parameters when running
|
||
in strong mode. If you leave off the type parameters from a generic type, we
|
||
need to decide what to fill them in with. Dart 1.0 says just use `dynamic`,
|
||
but that isn't sound:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class Abser<T extends num> {
|
||
void absThis(T n) { n.abs(); }
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
var a = new Abser(); // Abser<dynamic>.
|
||
a.absThis("not a num");
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
We want the body of `absThis()` to be able to safely assume `n` is at
|
||
least a `num` -- that's why there's a constraint on T, after all. Implicitly
|
||
using `dynamic` as the type parameter in this example breaks that.
|
||
|
||
Instead, strong mode uses the bound. In the above example, it fills it in
|
||
with `num`, and then the second line where a string is passed becomes a
|
||
static error.
|
||
|
||
However, there are some cases where it is hard to figure out what that
|
||
default bound should be:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class RuhRoh<T extends Comparable<T>> {}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Strong mode's initial behavior sometimes produced surprising, unintended
|
||
results. For 1.22, we take a simpler approach and then report an error if
|
||
a good default type argument can't be found.
|
||
|
||
### Core libraries
|
||
|
||
* Define `FutureOr<T>` for code that works with either a future or an
|
||
immediate value of some type. For example, say you do a lot of text
|
||
manipulation, and you want a handy function to chain a bunch of them:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
typedef String StringSwizzler(String input);
|
||
|
||
String swizzle(String input, List<StringSwizzler> swizzlers) {
|
||
var result = input;
|
||
for (var swizzler in swizzlers) {
|
||
result = swizzler(result);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
return result;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This works fine:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
main() {
|
||
var result = swizzle("input", [
|
||
(s) => s.toUpperCase(),
|
||
(s) => () => s * 2)
|
||
]);
|
||
print(result); // "INPUTINPUT".
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Later, you realize you'd also like to support swizzlers that are
|
||
asynchronous (maybe they look up synonyms for words online). You could make
|
||
your API strictly asynchronous, but then users of simple synchronous
|
||
swizzlers have to manually wrap the return value in a `Future.value()`.
|
||
Ideally, your `swizzle()` function would be "polymorphic over asynchrony".
|
||
It would allow both synchronous and asynchronous swizzlers. Because `await`
|
||
accepts immediate values, it is easy to implement this dynamically:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
Future<String> swizzle(String input, List<StringSwizzler> swizzlers) async {
|
||
var result = input;
|
||
for (var swizzler in swizzlers) {
|
||
result = await swizzler(result);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
return result;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
main() async {
|
||
var result = swizzle("input", [
|
||
(s) => s.toUpperCase(),
|
||
(s) => new Future.delayed(new Duration(milliseconds: 40), () => s * 2)
|
||
]);
|
||
print(await result);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
What should the declared return type on StringSwizzler be? In the past, you
|
||
had to use `dynamic` or `Object`, but that doesn't tell the user much. Now,
|
||
you can do:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
typedef FutureOr<String> StringSwizzler(String input);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Like the name implies, `FutureOr<String>` is a union type. It can be a
|
||
`String` or a `Future<String>`, but not anything else. In this case, that's
|
||
not super useful beyond just stating a more precise type for readers of the
|
||
code. It does give you a little better error checking in code that uses the
|
||
result of that.
|
||
|
||
`FutureOr<T>` becomes really important in *generic* methods like
|
||
`Future.then()`. In those cases, having the type system understand this
|
||
magical union type helps type inference figure out the type argument of
|
||
`then()` based on the closure you pass it.
|
||
|
||
Previously, strong mode had hard-coded rules for handling `Future.then()`
|
||
specifically. `FutureOr<T>` exposes that functionality so third-party APIs
|
||
can take advantage of it too.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Dart2Js
|
||
|
||
* Remove support for (long-time deprecated) mixin typedefs.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
|
||
* Avoid using a barback asset server for executables unless they actually use
|
||
transformers. This makes precompilation substantially faster, produces
|
||
better error messages when precompilation fails, and allows
|
||
globally-activated executables to consistently use the
|
||
`Isolate.resolvePackageUri()` API.
|
||
|
||
* On Linux systems, always ignore packages' original file owners and
|
||
permissions when extracting those packages. This was already the default
|
||
under most circumstances.
|
||
|
||
* Properly close the standard input stream of child processes started using
|
||
`pub run`.
|
||
|
||
* Handle parse errors from the package cache more gracefully. A package whose
|
||
pubspec can't be parsed will now be ignored by `pub get --offline` and
|
||
deleted by `pub cache repair`.
|
||
|
||
* Make `pub run` run executables in spawned isolates. This lets them handle
|
||
signals and use standard IO reliably.
|
||
|
||
* Fix source-maps produced by dart2js when running in `pub serve`: URL
|
||
references to assets from packages match the location where `pub serve`
|
||
serves them (`packages/package_name/` instead of
|
||
`../packages/package_name/`).
|
||
|
||
### Infrastructure changes
|
||
|
||
* The SDK now uses GN rather than gyp to generate its build files, which will
|
||
now be exclusively ninja flavored. Documentation can be found on our
|
||
[wiki](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/wiki/Building-with-GN). Also see the
|
||
help message of `tools/gn.py`. This change is in response to the deprecation
|
||
of gyp. Build file generation with gyp will continue to be available in this
|
||
release by setting the environment variable `DART_USE_GYP` before running
|
||
`gclient sync` or `gclient runhooks`, but this will be removed in a future
|
||
release.
|
||
|
||
## 1.21.1 - 2017-01-13
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* Dart VM: Snapshots of generic functions fail. [Issue 28072](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/28072)
|
||
|
||
## 1.21.0 - 2016-12-07
|
||
|
||
### Language
|
||
|
||
* Support generic method syntax. Type arguments are not available at
|
||
runtime. For details, check the
|
||
[informal specification](https://gist.github.com/eernstg/4353d7b4f669745bed3a5423e04a453c).
|
||
* Support access to initializing formals, e.g., the use of `x` to initialize
|
||
`y` in `class C { var x, y; C(this.x): y = x; }`.
|
||
Please check the
|
||
[informal specification](https://gist.github.com/eernstg/cff159be9e34d5ea295d8c24b1a3e594)
|
||
for details.
|
||
* Don't warn about switch case fallthrough if the case ends in a `rethrow`
|
||
statement. (SDK issue
|
||
[27650](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27650))
|
||
* Also don't warn if the entire switch case is wrapped in braces - as long as
|
||
the block ends with a `break`, `continue`, `rethrow`, `return` or `throw`.
|
||
* Allow `=` as well as `:` as separator for named parameter default values.
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
enableFlags({bool hidden: false}) { … }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
can now be replaced by
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
enableFlags({bool hidden = false}) { … }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(SDK issue [27559](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27559))
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`: `Set.difference` now takes a `Set<Object>` as argument. (SDK
|
||
issue [27573](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27573))
|
||
|
||
* `dart:developer`
|
||
|
||
* Added `Service` class.
|
||
* Allows inspecting and controlling the VM service protocol HTTP server.
|
||
* Provides an API to access the ID of an `Isolate`.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Dart Dev Compiler
|
||
|
||
* Support calls to `loadLibrary()` on deferred libraries. Deferred libraries
|
||
are still loaded eagerly. (SDK issue
|
||
[27343](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27343))
|
||
|
||
## 1.20.1 - 2016-10-13
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* Dartium: Fixes a bug that caused crashes. No issue filed.
|
||
|
||
### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* It is no longer a warning when casting from dynamic to a composite type
|
||
(SDK issue [27766](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27766)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
main() {
|
||
dynamic obj = <int>[1, 2, 3];
|
||
// This is now allowed without a warning.
|
||
List<int> list = obj;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 1.20.0 - 2016-10-11
|
||
|
||
### Dart VM
|
||
|
||
* We have improved the way that the VM locates the native code library for a
|
||
native extension (e.g. `dart-ext:` import). We have updated this
|
||
[article on native extensions](https://www.dartlang.org/articles/dart-vm/native-extensions)
|
||
to reflect the VM's improved behavior.
|
||
|
||
* Linux builds of the VM will now use the `tcmalloc` library for memory
|
||
allocation. This has the advantages of better debugging and profiling support
|
||
and faster small allocations, with the cost of slightly larger initial memory
|
||
footprint, and slightly slower large allocations.
|
||
|
||
* We have improved the way the VM searches for trusted root certificates for
|
||
secure socket connections on Linux. First, the VM will look for trusted root
|
||
certificates in standard locations on the file system
|
||
(`/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt` followed by `/etc/ssl/certs`), and only if
|
||
these do not exist will it fall back on the builtin trusted root certificates.
|
||
This behavior can be overridden on Linux with the new flags
|
||
`--root-certs-file` and `--root-certs-cache`. The former is the path to a file
|
||
containing the trusted root certificates, and the latter is the path to a
|
||
directory containing root certificate files hashed using `c_rehash`.
|
||
|
||
* The VM now throws a catchable `Error` when method compilation fails. This
|
||
allows easier debugging of syntax errors, especially when testing. (SDK issue
|
||
[23684](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/23684))
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`: Remove deprecated `Resource` class.
|
||
Use the class in `package:resource` instead.
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* `Future.wait` now catches synchronous errors and returns them in the
|
||
returned Future. (SDK issue
|
||
[27249](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27249))
|
||
* More aggressively returns a `Future` on `Stream.cancel` operations.
|
||
Discourages to return `null` from `cancel`. (SDK issue
|
||
[26777](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26777))
|
||
* Fixes a few bugs where the cancel future wasn't passed through
|
||
transformations.
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `WebSocket.addUtf8Text` to allow sending a pre-encoded text message
|
||
without a round-trip UTF-8 conversion. (SDK issue
|
||
[27129](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27129))
|
||
|
||
### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - it is an error if a generic type parameter cannot be
|
||
inferred (SDK issue [26992](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26992)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
class Cup<T> {
|
||
Cup(T t);
|
||
}
|
||
main() {
|
||
// Error because:
|
||
// - if we choose Cup<num> it is not assignable to `cOfInt`,
|
||
// - if we choose Cup<int> then `n` is not assignable to int.
|
||
num n;
|
||
C<int> cOfInt = new C(n);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* New feature - use `@checked` to override a method and tighten a parameter
|
||
type (SDK issue [25578](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25578)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
import 'package:meta/meta.dart' show checked;
|
||
class View {
|
||
addChild(View v) {}
|
||
}
|
||
class MyView extends View {
|
||
// this override is legal, it will check at runtime if we actually
|
||
// got a MyView.
|
||
addChild(@checked MyView v) {}
|
||
}
|
||
main() {
|
||
dynamic mv = new MyView();
|
||
mv.addChild(new View()); // runtime error
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* New feature - use `@virtual` to allow field overrides in strong mode
|
||
(SDK issue [27384](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27384)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
import 'package:meta/meta.dart' show virtual;
|
||
class Base {
|
||
@virtual int x;
|
||
}
|
||
class Derived extends Base {
|
||
int x;
|
||
|
||
// Expose the hidden storage slot:
|
||
int get superX => super.x;
|
||
set superX(int v) { super.x = v; }
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - infer list and map literals from the context type as well as
|
||
their values, consistent with generic methods and instance creation
|
||
(SDK issue [27151](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/27151)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
import 'dart:async';
|
||
main() async {
|
||
var b = new Future<B>.value(new B());
|
||
var c = new Future<C>.value(new C());
|
||
var/*infer List<Future<A>>*/ list = [b, c];
|
||
var/*infer List<A>*/ result = await Future.wait(list);
|
||
}
|
||
class A {}
|
||
class B extends A {}
|
||
class C extends A {}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* `dartfmt` - upgraded to v0.2.10
|
||
* Don't crash on annotations before parameters with trailing commas.
|
||
* Always split enum declarations if they end in a trailing comma.
|
||
* Add `--set-exit-if-changed` to set the exit code on a change.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
* Pub no longer generates a `packages/` directory by default. Instead, it
|
||
generates a `.packages` file, called a package spec. To generate
|
||
a `packages/` directory in addition to the package spec, use the
|
||
`--packages-dir` flag with `pub get`, `pub upgrade`, and `pub downgrade`.

## 1.19.1 - 2016-09-08
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* Dartdoc: Fixes a bug that prevented generation of docs.
|
||
(Dartdoc issue [1233](https://github.com/dart-lang/dartdoc/issues/1233))
|
||
|
||
## 1.19.0 - 2016-08-26
|
||
|
||
### Language changes
|
||
|
||
* The language now allows a trailing comma after the last argument of a call and
|
||
the last parameter of a function declaration. This can make long argument or
|
||
parameter lists easier to maintain, as commas can be left as-is when
|
||
reordering lines. For details, see SDK issue
|
||
[26644](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26644).
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
* `dartfmt` - upgraded to v0.2.9+1
|
||
* Support trailing commas in argument and parameter lists.
|
||
* Gracefully handle read-only files.
|
||
* About a dozen other bug fixes.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
* Added a `--no-packages-dir` flag to `pub get`, `pub upgrade`, and `pub
|
||
downgrade`. When this flag is passed, pub will not generate a `packages/`
|
||
directory, and will remove that directory and any symlinks to it if they
|
||
exist. Note that this replaces the unsupported `--no-package-symlinks` flag.
|
||
|
||
* Added the ability for packages to declare a constraint on the [Flutter][]
|
||
SDK:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
environment:
|
||
flutter: ^0.1.2
|
||
sdk: >=1.19.0 <2.0.0
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
A Flutter constraint will only be satisfiable when pub is running in the
|
||
context of the `flutter` executable, and when the Flutter SDK version
|
||
matches the constraint.
|
||
|
||
* Added `sdk` as a new package source that fetches packages from a hard-coded
|
||
SDK. Currently only the `flutter` SDK is supported:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
dependencies:
|
||
flutter_driver:
|
||
sdk: flutter
|
||
version: ^0.0.1
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
A Flutter `sdk` dependency will only be satisfiable when pub is running in
|
||
the context of the `flutter` executable, and when the Flutter SDK contains a
|
||
package with the given name whose version matches the constraint.
|
||
|
||
* `tar` files on Linux are now created with `0` as the user and group IDs.
|
||
This fixes a crash when publishing packages while using Active Directory.
|
||
|
||
* Fixed a bug where packages from a hosted HTTP URL were considered the same
|
||
as packages from an otherwise-identical HTTPS URL.
|
||
|
||
* Fixed timer formatting for timers that lasted longer than a minute.
|
||
|
||
* Eliminate some false negatives when determining whether global executables
|
||
are on the user's executable path.
|
||
|
||
* `dart2js`
|
||
* `dart2dart` (aka `dart2js --output-type=dart`) has been removed (this was deprecated in Dart 1.11).
|
||
|
||
[Flutter]: https://flutter.io/
|
||
|
||
### Dart VM
|
||
|
||
* The dependency on BoringSSL has been rolled forward. Going forward, builds
|
||
of the Dart VM including secure sockets will require a compiler with C++11
|
||
support. For details, see the
|
||
[Building wiki page](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/wiki/Building).
|
||
|
||
### Strong Mode
|
||
|
||
* New feature - an option to disable implicit casts
|
||
(SDK issue [26583](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26583)),
|
||
see the [documentation](https://github.com/dart-lang/dev_compiler/blob/master/doc/STATIC_SAFETY.md#disable-implicit-casts)
|
||
for usage instructions and examples.
|
||
|
||
* New feature - an option to disable implicit dynamic
|
||
(SDK issue [25573](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25573)),
|
||
see the [documentation](https://github.com/dart-lang/dev_compiler/blob/master/doc/STATIC_SAFETY.md#disable-implicit-dynamic)
|
||
for usage instructions and examples.
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - infer generic type arguments from the
|
||
constructor invocation arguments
|
||
(SDK issue [25220](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25220)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
var map = new Map<String, String>();
|
||
|
||
// infer: Map<String, String>
|
||
var otherMap = new Map.from(map);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - infer local function return type
|
||
(SDK issue [26414](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26414)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
void main() {
|
||
// infer: return type is int
|
||
f() { return 40; }
|
||
int y = f() + 2; // type checks
|
||
print(y);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - allow type promotion from a generic type parameter
|
||
(SDK issue [26414](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26965)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
void fn/*<T>*/(/*=T*/ object) {
|
||
if (object is String) {
|
||
// Treat `object` as `String` inside this block.
|
||
// But it will require a cast to pass it to something that expects `T`.
|
||
print(object.substring(1));
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - smarter inference for Future.then
|
||
(SDK issue [25944](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25944)).
|
||
Previous workarounds that use async/await or `.then/*<Future<SomeType>>*/`
|
||
should no longer be necessary.
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
// This will now infer correctly.
|
||
Future<List<int>> t2 = f.then((_) => [3]);
|
||
// This infers too.
|
||
Future<int> t2 = f.then((_) => new Future.value(42));
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - smarter inference for async functions
|
||
(SDK issue [25322](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25322)).
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
void test() async {
|
||
List<int> x = await [4]; // was previously inferred
|
||
List<int> y = await new Future.value([4]); // now inferred too
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Breaking change - sideways casts are no longer allowed
|
||
(SDK issue [26120](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26120)).
|
||
|
||
## 1.18.1 - 2016-08-02
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves two issues and improves performance:
|
||
|
||
* Debugger: Fixes a bug that crashes the VM
|
||
(SDK issue [26941](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26941))
|
||
|
||
* VM: Fixes an optimizer bug involving closures, try, and await
|
||
(SDK issue [26948](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26948))
|
||
|
||
* Dart2js: Speeds up generated code on Firefox
|
||
(https://codereview.chromium.org/2180533002)
|
||
|
||
## 1.18.0 - 2016-07-27
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* Improved performance when parsing some common URIs.
|
||
* Fixed bug in `Uri.resolve` (SDK issue [26804](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26804)).
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Adds file locking modes `FileLock.BLOCKING_SHARED` and
|
||
`FileLock.BLOCKING_EXCLUSIVE`.
|
||
|
||
## 1.17.1 - 2016-06-10
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves two issues:
|
||
|
||
* VM: Fixes a bug that caused crashes in async functions.
|
||
(SDK issue [26668](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26668))
|
||
|
||
* VM: Fixes a bug that caused garbage collection of reachable weak properties.
|
||
(https://codereview.chromium.org/2041413005)
|
||
|
||
## 1.17.0 - 2016-06-08
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* Deprecate `ChunkedConverter` which was erroneously added in 1.16.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* `Uri.replace` supports iterables as values for the query parameters.
|
||
* `Uri.parseIPv6Address` returns a `Uint8List`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `NetworkInterface.listSupported`, which is `true` when
|
||
`NetworkInterface.list` is supported, and `false` otherwise. Currently,
|
||
`NetworkInterface.list` is not supported on Android.
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
* TAR files created while publishing a package on Mac OS and Linux now use a
|
||
more portable format.
|
||
|
||
* Errors caused by invalid arguments now print the full usage information for
|
||
the command.
|
||
|
||
* SDK constraints for dependency overrides are no longer considered when
|
||
determining the total SDK constraint for a lockfile.
|
||
|
||
* A bug has been fixed in which a lockfile was considered up-to-date when it
|
||
actually wasn't.
|
||
|
||
* A bug has been fixed in which `pub get --offline` would crash when a
|
||
prerelease version was selected.
|
||
|
||
* Dartium and content shell
|
||
* Debugging Dart code inside iframes improved, was broken.
|
||
|
||
## 1.16.1 - 2016-05-24
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* VM: Fixes a bug that caused intermittent hangs on Windows.
|
||
(SDK issue [26400](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/26400))
|
||
|
||
## 1.16.0 - 2016-04-26
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* Added `BASE64URL` codec and corresponding `Base64Codec.urlSafe` constructor.
|
||
|
||
* Introduce `ChunkedConverter` and deprecate chunked methods on `Converter`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:html`
|
||
|
||
There have been a number of **BREAKING** changes to align APIs with recent
|
||
changes in Chrome. These include:
|
||
|
||
* Chrome's `ShadowRoot` interface no longer has the methods `getElementById`,
|
||
`getElementsByClassName`, and `getElementsByTagName`, e.g.,
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
elem.shadowRoot.getElementsByClassName('clazz')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
should become:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
elem.shadowRoot.querySelectorAll('.clazz')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* The `clipboardData` property has been removed from `KeyEvent`
|
||
and `Event`. It has been moved to the new `ClipboardEvent` class, which is
|
||
now used by `copy`, `cut`, and `paste` events.
|
||
|
||
* The `layer` property has been removed from `KeyEvent` and
|
||
`UIEvent`. It has been moved to `MouseEvent`.
|
||
|
||
* The `Point get page` property has been removed from `UIEvent`.
|
||
It still exists on `MouseEvent` and `Touch`.
|
||
|
||
There have also been a number of other additions and removals to `dart:html`,
|
||
`dart:indexed_db`, `dart:svg`, `dart:web_audio`, and `dart:web_gl` that
|
||
correspond to changes to Chrome APIs between v39 and v45. Many of the breaking
|
||
changes represent APIs that would have caused runtime exceptions when compiled
|
||
to Javascript and run on recent Chrome releases.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `SecurityContext.alpnSupported`, which is true if a platform
|
||
supports ALPN, and false otherwise.
|
||
|
||
### JavaScript interop
|
||
|
||
For performance reasons, a potentially **BREAKING** change was added for
|
||
libraries that use JS interop.
|
||
Any Dart file that uses `@JS` annotations on declarations (top-level functions,
|
||
classes or class members) to interop with JavaScript code will require that the
|
||
file have the annotation `@JS()` on a library directive.
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
@JS()
|
||
library my_library;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The analyzer will enforce this by generating the error:
|
||
|
||
The `@JS()` annotation can only be used if it is also declared on the library
|
||
directive.
|
||
|
||
If part file uses the `@JS()` annotation, the library that uses the part should
|
||
have the `@JS()` annotation e.g.,
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
// library_1.dart
|
||
@JS()
|
||
library library_1;
|
||
|
||
import 'package:js/js.dart';
|
||
|
||
part 'part_1.dart';
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
// part_1.dart
|
||
part of library_1;
|
||
|
||
@JS("frameworkStabilizers")
|
||
external List<FrameworkStabilizer> get frameworkStabilizers;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If your library already has a JS module e.g.,
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
@JS('array.utils')
|
||
library my_library;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then your library will work without any additional changes.
|
||
|
||
### Analyzer
|
||
|
||
* Static checking of `for in` statements. These will now produce static
|
||
warnings:
|
||
|
||
```dart
|
||
// Not Iterable.
|
||
for (var i in 1234) { ... }
|
||
|
||
// String cannot be assigned to int.
|
||
for (int n in <String>["a", "b"]) { ... }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Tool Changes
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
* `pub serve` now provides caching headers that should improve the performance
|
||
of requesting large files multiple times.
|
||
|
||
* Both `pub get` and `pub upgrade` now have a `--no-precompile` flag that
|
||
disables precompilation of executables and transformed dependencies.
|
||
|
||
* `pub publish` now resolves symlinks when publishing from a Git repository.
|
||
This matches the behavior it always had when publishing a package that
|
||
wasn't in a Git repository.
|
||
|
||
* Dart Dev Compiler
|
||
* The **experimental** `dartdevc` executable has been added to the SDK.
|
||
|
||
* It will help early adopters validate the implementation and provide
|
||
feedback. `dartdevc` **is not** yet ready for production usage.
|
||
|
||
* Read more about the Dart Dev Compiler [here][dartdevc].

|
||
|
||
## 1.15.0 - 2016-03-09
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* Made `StreamView` class a `const` class.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* Added `Uri.queryParametersAll` to handle multiple query parameters with
|
||
the same name.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added `SecurityContext.usePrivateKeyBytes`,
|
||
`SecurityContext.useCertificateChainBytes`,
|
||
`SecurityContext.setTrustedCertificatesBytes`, and
|
||
`SecurityContext.setClientAuthoritiesBytes`.
|
||
* **Breaking** The named `directory` argument of
|
||
`SecurityContext.setTrustedCertificates` has been removed.
|
||
* Added support to `SecurityContext` for PKCS12 certificate and key
|
||
containers.
|
||
* All calls in `SecurityContext` that accept certificate data now accept an
|
||
optional named parameter `password`, similar to
|
||
`SecurityContext.usePrivateKeyBytes`, for use as the password for PKCS12
|
||
data.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Dartium and content shell
|
||
* The Chrome-based tools that ship as part of the Dart SDK – Dartium and
|
||
content shell – are now based on Chrome version 45 (instead of Chrome 39).
|
||
* Dart browser libraries (`dart:html`, `dart:svg`, etc) *have not* been
|
||
updated.
|
||
* These are still based on Chrome 39.
|
||
* These APIs will be updated in a future release.
|
||
* Note that there are experimental APIs which have changed in the underlying
|
||
browser, and will not work with the older libraries.
|
||
For example, `Element.animate`.
|
||
|
||
* `dartfmt` - upgraded to v0.2.4
|
||
* Better handling for long collections with comments.
|
||
* Always put member metadata annotations on their own line.
|
||
* Indent functions in named argument lists with non-functions.
|
||
* Force the parameter list to split if a split occurs inside a function-typed
|
||
parameter.
|
||
* Don't force a split for before a single named argument if the argument
|
||
itself splits.
|
||
|
||
### Service protocol changes
|
||
|
||
* Fixed a documentation bug where the field `extensionRPCs` in `Isolate`
|
||
was not marked optional.
|
||
|
||
### Experimental language features
|
||
* Added support for [configuration-specific imports](https://github.com/munificent/dep-interface-libraries/blob/master/Proposal.md).
|
||
On the VM and `dart2js`, they can be enabled with `--conditional-directives`.
|
||
|
||
The analyzer requires additional configuration:
|
||
```yaml
|
||
analyzer:
|
||
language:
|
||
enableConditionalDirectives: true
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

||
|
||
## 1.14.2 - 2016-02-10
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves three issues:
|
||
|
||
* VM: Fixed a code generation bug on x64.
|
||
(SDK commit [834b3f02](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/834b3f02b6ab740a213fd808e6c6f3269bed80e5))
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`: Fixed EOF detection when reading some special device files.
|
||
(SDK issue [25596](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25596))
|
||
|
||
* Pub: Fixed an error using hosted dependencies in SDK version 1.14.
|
||
(Pub issue [1386](https://github.com/dart-lang/pub/issues/1386))
|
||
|
||
## 1.14.1 - 2016-02-04
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* Debugger: Fixes a VM crash when a debugger attempts to set a break point
|
||
during isolate initialization.
|
||
(SDK issue [25618](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25618))
|
||
|
||
## 1.14.0 - 2016-01-28
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* Added `Future.any` static method.
|
||
* Added `Stream.fromFutures` constructor.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* `Base64Decoder.convert` now takes optional `start` and `end` parameters.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* Added `current` getter to `StackTrace` class.
|
||
* `Uri` class added support for data URIs
|
||
* Added two new constructors: `dataFromBytes` and `dataFromString`.
|
||
* Added a `data` getter for `data:` URIs with a new `UriData` class for
|
||
the return type.
|
||
* Added `growable` parameter to `List.filled` constructor.
|
||
* Added microsecond support to `DateTime`: `DateTime.microsecond`,
|
||
`DateTime.microsecondsSinceEpoch`, and
|
||
`new DateTime.fromMicrosecondsSinceEpoch`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:math`
|
||
* `Random` added a `secure` constructor returning a cryptographically secure
|
||
random generator which reads from the entropy source provided by the
|
||
embedder for every generated random value.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* `Platform` added a static `isIOS` getter and `Platform.operatingSystem` may
|
||
now return `ios`.
|
||
* `Platform` added a static `packageConfig` getter.
|
||
* Added support for WebSocket compression as standardized in RFC 7692.
|
||
* Compression is enabled by default for all WebSocket connections.
|
||
* The optionally named parameter `compression` on the methods
|
||
`WebSocket.connect`, `WebSocket.fromUpgradedSocket`, and
|
||
`WebSocketTransformer.upgrade` and the `WebSocketTransformer`
|
||
constructor can be used to modify or disable compression using the new
|
||
`CompressionOptions` class.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:isolate`
|
||
* Added **_experimental_** support for [Package Resolution Configuration].
|
||
* Added `packageConfig` and `packageRoot` instance getters to `Isolate`.
|
||
* Added a `resolvePackageUri` method to `Isolate`.
|
||
* Added named arguments `packageConfig` and `automaticPackageResolution` to
|
||
the `Isolate.spawnUri` constructor.
|
||
|
||
[Package Resolution Configuration]: https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_enhancement_proposals/blob/master/Accepted/0005%20-%20Package%20Specification/DEP-pkgspec.md
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* `dartfmt`
|
||
|
||
* Better line splitting in a variety of cases.
|
||
|
||
* Other optimizations and bug fixes.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
|
||
* **Breaking:** Pub now eagerly emits an error when a pubspec's "name" field
|
||
is not a valid Dart identifier. Since packages with non-identifier names
|
||
were never allowed to be published, and some of them already caused crashes
|
||
when being written to a `.packages` file, this is unlikely to break many
|
||
people in practice.
|
||
|
||
* **Breaking:** Support for `barback` versions prior to 0.15.0 (released July
|
||
2014) has been dropped. Pub will no longer install these older barback
|
||
versions.
|
||
|
||
* `pub serve` now GZIPs the assets it serves to make load times more similar
|
||
to real-world use-cases.
|
||
|
||
* `pub deps` now supports a `--no-dev` flag, which causes it to emit the
|
||
dependency tree as it would be if no `dev_dependencies` were in use. This
|
||
makes it easier to see your package's dependency footprint as your users
|
||
will experience it.
|
||
|
||
* `pub global run` now detects when a global executable's SDK constraint is no
|
||
longer met and errors out, rather than trying to run the executable anyway.
|
||
|
||
* Pub commands that check whether the lockfile is up-to-date (`pub run`, `pub
|
||
deps`, `pub serve`, and `pub build`) now do additional verification. They
|
||
ensure that any path dependencies' pubspecs haven't been changed, and they
|
||
ensure that the current SDK version is compatible with all dependencies.
|
||
|
||
* Fixed a crashing bug when using `pub global run` on a global script that
|
||
didn't exist.
|
||
|
||
* Fixed a crashing bug when a pubspec contains a dependency without a source
|
||
declared.

|
||
## 1.13.2 - 2016-01-06
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves one issue:
|
||
|
||
* dart2js: Stack traces are not captured correctly (SDK issue [25235]
|
||
(https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/25235))
|
||
|
||
## 1.13.1 - 2015-12-17
|
||
|
||
Patch release, resolves three issues:
|
||
|
||
* VM type propagation fix: Resolves a potential crash in the Dart VM (SDK commit
|
||
[dff13be]
|
||
(https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/dff13bef8de104d33b04820136da2d80f3c835d7))
|
||
|
||
* dart2js crash fix: Resolves a crash in pkg/js and dart2js (SDK issue [24974]
|
||
(https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/24974))
|
||
|
||
* Pub get crash on ARM: Fixes a crash triggered when running 'pub get' on ARM
|
||
processors such as those on a Raspberry Pi (SDK issue [24855]
|
||
(https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/24855))
|
||
|
||
## 1.13.0 - 2015-11-18
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* `StreamController` added getters for `onListen`, `onPause`, and `onResume`
|
||
with the corresponding new `typedef void ControllerCallback()`.
|
||
* `StreamController` added a getter for `onCancel` with the corresponding
|
||
new `typedef ControllerCancelCallback()`;
|
||
* `StreamTransformer` instances created with `fromHandlers` with no
|
||
`handleError` callback now forward stack traces along with errors to the
|
||
resulting streams.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* Added support for Base-64 encoding and decoding.
|
||
* Added new classes `Base64Codec`, `Base64Encoder`, and `Base64Decoder`.
|
||
* Added new top-level `const Base64Codec BASE64`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* `Uri` added `removeFragment` method.
|
||
* `String.allMatches` (implementing `Pattern.allMatches`) is now lazy,
|
||
as all `allMatches` implementations are intended to be.
|
||
* `Resource` is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:developer`
|
||
* Added `Timeline` class for interacting with Observatory's timeline feature.
|
||
* Added `ServiceExtensionHandler`, `ServiceExtensionResponse`, and `registerExtension` which enable developers to provide their own VM service protocol extensions.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:html`, `dart:indexed_db`, `dart:svg`, `dart:web_audio`, `dart:web_gl`, `dart:web_sql`
|
||
* The return type of some APIs changed from `double` to `num`. Dartium is now
|
||
using
|
||
JS interop for most operations. JS does not distinguish between numeric
|
||
types, and will return a number as an int if it fits in an int. This will
|
||
mostly cause an error if you assign to something typed `double` in
|
||
checked mode. You may
|
||
need to insert a `toDouble()` call or accept `num`. Examples of APIs that
|
||
are affected include `Element.getBoundingClientRect` and
|
||
`TextMetrics.width`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* **Breaking:** Secure networking has changed, replacing the NSS library
|
||
with the BoringSSL library. `SecureSocket`, `SecureServerSocket`,
|
||
`RawSecureSocket`,`RawSecureServerSocket`, `HttpClient`, and `HttpServer`
|
||
now all use a `SecurityContext` object which contains the certificates
|
||
and keys used for secure TLS (SSL) networking.
|
||
|
||
This is a breaking change for server applications and for some client
|
||
applications. Certificates and keys are loaded into the `SecurityContext`
|
||
from PEM files, instead of from an NSS certificate database. Information
|
||
about how to change applications that use secure networking is at
|
||
https://www.dartlang.org/server/tls-ssl.html
|
||
|
||
* `HttpClient` no longer sends URI fragments in the request. This is not
|
||
allowed by the HTTP protocol.
|
||
The `HttpServer` still gracefully receives fragments, but discards them
|
||
before delivering the request.
|
||
* To allow connections to be accepted on the same port across different
|
||
isolates, set the `shared` argument to `true` when creating server socket
|
||
and `HttpServer` instances.
|
||
* The deprecated `ServerSocketReference` and `RawServerSocketReference`
|
||
classes have been removed.
|
||
* The corresponding `reference` properties on `ServerSocket` and
|
||
`RawServerSocket` have been removed.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:isolate`
|
||
* `spawnUri` added an `environment` named argument.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart2js` and Dartium now support improved Javascript Interoperability via the
|
||
[js package](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/js).
|
||
|
||
* `docgen` and `dartdocgen` no longer ship in the SDK. The `docgen` sources have
|
||
been removed from the repository.
|
||
|
||
* This is the last release to ship the VM's "legacy debug protocol".
|
||
We intend to remove the legacy debug protocol in Dart VM 1.14.
|
||
|
||
* The VM's Service Protocol has been updated to version 3.0 to take care
|
||
of a number of issues uncovered by the first few non-observatory
|
||
clients. This is a potentially breaking change for clients.
|
||
|
||
* Dartium has been substantially changed. Rather than using C++ calls into
|
||
Chromium internals for DOM operations it now uses JS interop.
|
||
The DOM objects in `dart:html` and related libraries now wrap
|
||
a JavaScript object and delegate operations to it. This should be
|
||
mostly transparent to users. However, performance and memory characteristics
|
||
may be different from previous versions. There may be some changes in which
|
||
DOM objects are wrapped as Dart objects. For example, if you get a reference
|
||
to a Window object, even through JS interop, you will always see it as a
|
||
Dart Window, even when used cross-frame. We expect the change to using
|
||
JS interop will make it much simpler to update to new Chrome versions.
|
||
|
||
## 1.12.2 - 2015-10-21
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
|
||
* A memory leak in creation of Process objects is fixed.
|
||
|
||
## 1.12.1 - 2015-09-08
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
|
||
* Pub will now respect `.gitignore` when validating a package before it's
|
||
published. For example, if a `LICENSE` file exists but is ignored, that is
|
||
now an error.
|
||
|
||
* If the package is in a subdirectory of a Git repository and the entire
|
||
subdirectory is ignored with `.gitignore`, pub will act as though nothing
|
||
was ignored instead of uploading an empty package.
|
||
|
||
* The heuristics for determining when `pub get` needs to be run before various
|
||
commands have been improved. There should no longer be false positives when
|
||
non-dependency sections of the pubspec have been modified.
|
||
|
||
## 1.12.0 - 2015-08-31
|
||
|
||
### Language changes
|
||
|
||
* Null-aware operators
|
||
* `??`: if null operator. `expr1 ?? expr2` evaluates to `expr1` if
|
||
not `null`, otherwise `expr2`.
|
||
* `??=`: null-aware assignment. `v ??= expr` causes `v` to be assigned
|
||
`expr` only if `v` is `null`.
|
||
* `x?.p`: null-aware access. `x?.p` evaluates to `x.p` if `x` is not
|
||
`null`, otherwise evaluates to `null`.
|
||
* `x?.m()`: null-aware method invocation. `x?.m()` invokes `m` only
|
||
if `x` is not `null`.
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:async`
|
||
* `StreamController` added setters for the `onListen`, `onPause`, `onResume`
|
||
and `onCancel` callbacks.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:convert`
|
||
* `LineSplitter` added a `split` static method returning an `Iterable`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* `Uri` class now perform path normalization when a URI is created.
|
||
This removes most `..` and `.` sequences from the URI path.
|
||
Purely relative paths (no scheme or authority) are allowed to retain
|
||
some leading "dot" segments.
|
||
Also added `hasAbsolutePath`, `hasEmptyPath`, and `hasScheme` properties.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:developer`
|
||
* New `log` function to transmit logging events to Observatory.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:html`
|
||
* `NodeTreeSanitizer` added the `const trusted` field. It can be used
|
||
instead of defining a `NullTreeSanitizer` class when calling
|
||
`setInnerHtml` or other methods that create DOM from text. It is
|
||
also more efficient, skipping the creation of a `DocumentFragment`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* Added two new file modes, `WRITE_ONLY` and `WRITE_ONLY_APPEND` for
|
||
opening a file write only.
|
||
[eaeecf2](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/eaeecf2ed13ba6c7fbfd653c3c592974a7120960)
|
||
* Change stdout/stderr to binary mode on Windows.
|
||
[4205b29](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/4205b2997e01f2cea8e2f44c6f46ed6259ab7277)
|
||
|
||
* `dart:isolate`
|
||
* Added `onError`, `onExit` and `errorsAreFatal` parameters to
|
||
`Isolate.spawnUri`.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:mirrors`
|
||
* `InstanceMirror.delegate` moved up to `ObjectMirror`.
|
||
* Fix InstanceMirror.getField optimization when the selector is an operator.
|
||
* Fix reflective NoSuchMethodErrors to match their non-reflective
|
||
counterparts when due to argument mismatches. (VM only)
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Documentation tools
|
||
|
||
* `dartdoc` is now the default tool to generate static HTML for API docs.
|
||
[Learn more](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/dartdoc).
|
||
|
||
* `docgen` and `dartdocgen` have been deprecated. Currently plan is to remove
|
||
them in 1.13.
|
||
|
||
* Formatter (`dartfmt`)
|
||
|
||
* Over 50 bugs fixed.
|
||
|
||
* Optimized line splitter is much faster and produces better output on
|
||
complex code.
|
||
|
||
* Observatory
|
||
* Allocation profiling.
|
||
|
||
* New feature to display output from logging.
|
||
|
||
* Heap snapshot analysis works for 64-bit VMs.
|
||
|
||
* Improved ability to inspect typed data, regex and compiled code.
|
||
|
||
* Ability to break on all or uncaught exceptions from Observatory's debugger.
|
||
|
||
* Ability to set closure-specific breakpoints.
|
||
|
||
* 'anext' - step past await/yield.
|
||
|
||
* Preserve when a variable has been expanded/unexpanded in the debugger.
|
||
|
||
* Keep focus on debugger input box whenever possible.
|
||
|
||
* Echo stdout/stderr in the Observatory debugger. Standalone-only so far.
|
||
|
||
* Minor fixes to service protocol documentation.
|
||
|
||
* Pub
|
||
|
||
* **Breaking:** various commands that previously ran `pub get` implicitly no
|
||
longer do so. Instead, they merely check to make sure the ".packages" file
|
||
is newer than the pubspec and the lock file, and fail if it's not.
|
||
|
||
* Added support for `--verbosity=error` and `--verbosity=warning`.
|
||
|
||
* `pub serve` now collapses multiple GET requests into a single line of
|
||
output. For full output, use `--verbose`.
|
||
|
||
* `pub deps` has improved formatting for circular dependencies on the
|
||
entrypoint package.
|
||
|
||
* `pub run` and `pub global run`
|
||
|
||
* **Breaking:** to match the behavior of the Dart VM, executables no longer
|
||
run in checked mode by default. A `--checked` flag has been added to run
|
||
them in checked mode manually.
|
||
|
||
* Faster start time for executables that don't import transformed code.
|
||
|
||
* Binstubs for globally-activated executables are now written in the system
|
||
encoding, rather than always in `UTF-8`. To update existing executables,
|
||
run `pub cache repair`.
|
||
|
||
* `pub get` and `pub upgrade`
|
||
|
||
* Pub will now generate a ".packages" file in addition to the "packages"
|
||
directory when running `pub get` or similar operations, per the
|
||
[package spec proposal][]. Pub now has a `--no-package-symlinks` flag that
|
||
will stop "packages" directories from being generated at all.
|
||
|
||
* An issue where HTTP requests were sometimes made even though `--offline`
|
||
was passed has been fixed.
|
||
|
||
* A bug with `--offline` that caused an unhelpful error message has been
|
||
fixed.
|
||
|
||
* Pub will no longer time out when a package takes a long time to download.
|
||
|
||
* `pub publish`
|
||
|
||
* Pub will emit a non-zero exit code when it finds a violation while
|
||
publishing.
|
||
|
||
* `.gitignore` files will be respected even if the package isn't at the top
|
||
level of the Git repository.
|
||
|
||
* Barback integration
|
||
|
||
* A crashing bug involving transformers that only apply to non-public code
|
||
has been fixed.
|
||
|
||
* A deadlock caused by declaring transformer followed by a lazy transformer
|
||
(such as the built-in `$dart2js` transformer) has been fixed.
|
||
|
||
* A stack overflow caused by a transformer being run multiple times on the
|
||
package that defines it has been fixed.
|
||
|
||
* A transformer that tries to read a non-existent asset in another package
|
||
will now be re-run if that asset is later created.
|
||
|
||
[package spec proposal]: https://github.com/lrhn/dep-pkgspec
|
||
|
||
### VM Service Protocol Changes
|
||
|
||
* **BREAKING** The service protocol now sends JSON-RPC 2.0-compatible
|
||
server-to-client events. To reflect this, the service protocol version is
|
||
now 2.0.
|
||
|
||
* The service protocol now includes a `"jsonrpc"` property in its responses, as
|
||
opposed to `"json-rpc"`.
|
||
|
||
* The service protocol now properly handles requests with non-string ids.
|
||
Numeric ids are no longer converted to strings, and null ids now don't produce
|
||
a response.
|
||
|
||
* Some RPCs that didn't include a `"jsonrpc"` property in their responses now
|
||
include one.
|
||
|
||
## 1.11.2 - 2015-08-03
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* Fix a bug where `WebSocket.close()` would crash if called after
|
||
`WebSocket.cancel()`.
|
||
|
||
## 1.11.1 - 2015-07-02
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* Pub will always load Dart SDK assets from the SDK whose `pub` executable was
|
||
run, even if a `DART_SDK` environment variable is set.
|
||
|
||
## 1.11.0 - 2015-06-25
|
||
|
||
### Core library changes
|
||
|
||
* `dart:core`
|
||
* `Iterable` added an `empty` constructor.
|
||

|
||
* `Iterable` can now be extended directly. An alternative to extending
|
||
`IterableBase` from `dart:collection`.
|
||
* `List` added an `unmodifiable` constructor.
|
||
[r45334](https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=45334)

||
* `Uri` added a `directory` constructor.
|
||
[d8dbb4a](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/d8dbb4a60f5e8a7f874c2a4fbf59eaf1a39f4776)
|
||
* List iterators may not throw `ConcurrentModificationError` as eagerly in
|
||
release mode. In checked mode, the modification check is still as eager
|
||
as possible.
|
||
[r45198](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/5a79c03)
|
||
|
||
* `dart:developer` - **NEW**
|
||
* Replaces the deprecated `dart:profiler` library.
|
||
* Adds new functions `debugger` and `inspect`.
|
||
[6e42aec](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/blob/6e42aec4f64cf356dde7bad9426e07e0ea5b58d5/sdk/lib/developer/developer.dart)
|
||
|
||
* `dart:io`
|
||
* `FileSystemEntity` added a `uri` property.
|
||
[8cf32dc](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/8cf32dc1a1664b516e57f804524e46e55fae88b2)
|
||
* `Platform` added a `static resolvedExecutable` property.
|
||
[c05c8c6](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/c05c8c66069db91cc2fd48691dfc406c818d411d)
|
||
|
||
* `dart:html`
|
||
* `Element` methods, `appendHtml` and `insertAdjacentHtml` now take `nodeValidator`
|
||
and `treeSanitizer` parameters, and the inputs are consistently
|
||
sanitized.
|
||
[r45818 announcement](https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/forum/#!topic/announce/GVO7EAcPi6A)
|
||
|
||
* `dart:isolate`
|
||
* **BREAKING** The positional `priority` parameter of `Isolate.ping` and `Isolate.kill` is
|
||
now a named parameter named `priority`.
|
||
* **BREAKING** Removed the `Isolate.AS_EVENT` priority.
|
||
* `Isolate` methods `ping` and `addOnExitListener` now have a named parameter
|
||
`response`.
|
||
[r45092](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/1b208bd)
|
||
* `Isolate.spawnUri` added a named argument `checked`.
|
||
* Remove the experimental state of the API.
|
||
|
||
* `dart:profiler` - **DEPRECATED**
|
||
* This library will be removed in 1.12. Use `dart:developer` instead.
|
||
|
||
### Tool changes
|
||
|
||
* This is the first release that does not include the Eclipse-based
|
||
**Dart Editor**.
|
||
See [dartlang.org/tools](https://www.dartlang.org/tools/) for alternatives.
|
||
* This is the last release that ships the (unsupported)
|
||
dart2dart (aka `dart2js --output-type=dart`) utility as part
|
||
of dart2js
|
||
|
||
## 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://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/8b8223d),
|
||
[r45153](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/8a5d049),
|
||
[r45189](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/commit/3c39ad2)
|
||
|
||
* `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.

## 1.9.1 – 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.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 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.

||
|
||
## 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.
