Version 1.8.0

Changed

• Switched to C++14 as minimum requirement. Modernised the code accordingly.
• Only the tests need the Protobuf library when building.
• Improve compatibility with various STL flavors.
• Change license formatting to get recognized by license scanning tools.
• Add lots of const in places where we can. Also fix some other issues reported by clang-tidy.
• Various other code cleanups.
• Modernize documentation config, CMake config and CI workflows.

Fixed

• basic_pbf_builder constructor can not be noexcept.

Version 1.7.1

Changed

• Don't build tests if the standard CMake BUILD_TESTING variable is set to off.
• Now needs CMake 3.5.0 or greater.
• Update included catch2 framework to current version v2.13.8.
• Only enable clang-tidy make target if protobuf was found.
• Allow setting C++ version to compile with in CMake config.

Fixed

• Fixes undefined behaviour in float and double byteswap.
• Add missing includes of "config.hpp".
• Avoid narrowing conversion by doing an explicit static_cast.

Version 1.7.0

Added

• Support for buffer types other that std::string. pbf_writer is now just a typedef for basic_pbf_writer<std::string>. Other buffer types can be used with basic_pbf_writer. See doc/advanced.md for details.

Changed

• Switched to catch2 for testing.
• Some minor tweaks.

Fixed

• Removed some undefined behaviour.

Version 1.6.8

Changed

• Various code cleanups due to clang-tidy warnings.

Fixed

• Made data_view::compare noexcept.

Version 1.6.7

Fixed

• Signed-unsigned comparison on 32 bit systems.

Version 1.6.6

Fixed

• Fixed several place with possible undefined behaviour.

Version 1.6.5

Fixed

• Avoid UB: Do not calculate pointer outside array bounds.
• Specify proto2 syntax in .proto files to appease protoc.

Version 1.6.4

Added

• Add function data() to get the not yet read data from a pbf_reader.
• New add_packed_fixed() template function for pbf_writer.
• New length_of_varint() helper function calculates how long a varint would be for a specified value.

Changed

• More consistent implementation of operators as free friend functions.

Fixed

• Fixed some zigzag encoding tests on MSVC.
• Add extra cast so we do an xor with unsigned ints.
• No more bitwise operations on signed integers in varint decoder.
• No more bitwise operations on signed integers in zigzag encoder/decoder.

Version 1.6.3

Changed

• Moved byteswap_inplace functions from detail into protozero namespace. They can be useful outsize protozero.
• More asserts and unit tests and small cleanups.

Version 1.6.2

Changed

• Update included catch.hpp to v1.12.0.
• Move basic unit tests into their own directory (test/unit).
• Improved clang-tidy config and fixed some code producing warnings.

Fixed

• Buffer overflow in pbf-decoder tool.
