If you use crypto/block, you’ll need +to switch to crypto/cipher once it is complete. + +Package smtp’s StartTLS now takes a *tls.Config argument. + +Package reflect’s ArrayCopy has been renamed to Copy. There are new functions +Append and AppendSlice. + +The print/println bootstrapping functions now write to standard error. +To write to standard output, use fmt.Print[ln]. + +A new tool, govet, has been added to the Go distribution. Govet is a static +checker for Go programs. At the moment, and for the forseeable future, +it only checks arguments to print calls. + +The cgo tool for writing Go bindings for C code has changed so that it no +longer uses stub .so files (like cgo_stdio.so). Cgo-based packages using the +standard Makefiles should build without any changes. Any alternate build +mechanisms will need to be updated. + +The C and Go compilers (6g, 6c, 8g, 8c, 5g, 5c) now align structs according to +the maximum alignment of the fields they contain; previously they aligned +structs to word boundaries. This may break non-cgo-based code that attempts to +mix C and Go. + +NaCl support has been removed. The recent linker changes broke NaCl support +a month ago, and there are no known users of it. +If necessary, the NaCl code can be recovered from the repository history. + +* 5g/8g, 8l, ld, prof: fix output of 32-bit values (thanks Eoghan Sherry). +* [68]l and runtime: GDB support for interfaces and goroutines. +* 6l, 8l: support for linking ELF and Mach-O .o files. +* all: simplify two-variable ranges with unused second variable (thanks Ryan Hitchman). +* arm: updated soft float support. +* codereview: keep quiet when not in use (thanks Eoghan Sherry). +* compress/flate: implement Flush, equivalent to zlib's Z_SYNC_FLUSH. +* crypto/tls: use rand.Reader in cert generation example (thanks Anthony Martin). +* dashboard: fix project tag filter. +* debug/elf, debug/macho: add ImportedLibraries, ImportedSymbols. +* doc/go_mem: goroutine exit is not special. +* event.go: another print glitch from gocheck. +* gc: bug fixes, + syntax error for incomplete chan type (thanks Ryan Hitchman). +* go/ast: fix ast.Walk. +* gob: document the byte count used in the encoding of values, + fix bug sending zero-length top-level slices and maps, + Register should use the original type, not the indirected one. +* godashboard: support submitting projects with non-ascii names (thanks Ryan Hitchman) +* godefs: guard against structs with pad fields +* godoc: added textual search, to enable use -fulltext flag. +* gofmt: simplify "x, _ = range y" to "x = range y". +* gopack: allow ELF/Mach-O objects in .a files without clearing allobj. +* go/token,scanner: fix comments so godoc aligns properly. +* govet: on error continue to the next file (thanks Christopher Wedgwood). +* html: improved parsing. +* http: ServeFile handles Range header for partial requests. +* json: check for invalid UTF-8. +* ld: allow .o files with no symbols, + reading of ELF object files, + reading of Mach-O object files. +* math: change float64 bias constant from 1022 to 1023 (thanks Eoghan Sherry), + rename the MinFloat constant to SmallestNonzeroFloat. +* nm: silently ignore .o files in .a files. +* os: fix test of RemoveAll. +* os/inotify: new package (thanks Balazs Lecz). +* os: make MkdirAll work with symlinks (thanks Ryan Hitchman). +* regexp: simplify code for brackets, speed up by about 30%. +* runtime/linux/386: set FPU to 64-bit precision. +* runtime: remove paranoid mapping at 0. +* suffixarray: add Bytes function. +* syscall: add network interface constants for linux/386, linux/amd64 (thanks Mikio Hara). +* syscall/windows: restrict access rights param of OpenProcess(), + remove \r and \n from error messages (thanks Alex Brainman). +* test/bench: fixes to timing.sh (thanks Anthony Martin). +* time: fix bug in Ticker: shutdown using channel rather than memory. +* token/position: provide FileSet.File, provide files iterator. +* xml: disallow invalid Unicode code points (thanks Nigel Kerr). +</pre> + <h3 id="2010-12-08">2010-12-08</h3> <pre> |
