changelog:
1.2.1.3
* Bug fix: As it turns out, moving the literal rewrite rules to simplifier
phase 2 does not prevent competition with the `unpack` rule, which is
also active in this phase. Unfortunately this was hidden due to a silly
test environment mistake. Moving literal rules back to phase 1 finally
fixes GHC Trac #10528 correctly.
1.2.1.2
* Bug fix: Run literal rewrite rules in simplifier phase 2.
The behavior of the simplifier changed in GHC 7.10.2,
causing these rules to fail to fire, leading to poor code generation
and long compilation times. See
[GHC Trac #10528](https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10528).
changelog:
1.2.1.1
* Expose unpackCString#, which you should never use.
1.2.1.0
* Added Binary instances for both Text types. (If you have previously
been using the text-binary package to get a Binary instance, it is
now obsolete.)
1.2.0.6
* Fixed a space leak in UTF-8 decoding
1.2.0.5
* Feature parity: repeat, cycle, iterate are now implemented for lazy
Text, and the Data instance is more complete
* Build speed: an inliner space explosion has been fixed with toCaseFold
* Bug fix: encoding Int to a Builder would infinite-loop if the
integer-simple package was used
* Deprecation: OnEncodeError and EncodeError are deprecated, as they
are never used
* Internals: some types that are used internally in fusion-related
functions have moved around, been renamed, or been deleted (we don't
bump the major version if .Internal modules change)
* Spec compliance: toCaseFold now follows the Unicode 7.0 spec
(updated from 6.3)
1.2.0.4
* Fixed an incompatibility with base < 4.5
changelog:
1.2.0.2
* Bumped lower bound on deepseq to 1.4 for compatibility with the
upcoming GHC 7.10
1.2.0.1
* Fixed a buffer overflow in rendering of large Integers
(https://github.com/bos/text/issues/99)
changelog:
1.2.0.0
* Fixed an integer overflow in the replace function
(https://github.com/bos/text/issues/81)
* Fixed a hang in lazy decodeUtf8With
(https://github.com/bos/text/issues/87)
* Reduced codegen bloat caused by use of empty and single-character
literals
* Added an instance of IsList for GHC 7.8 and above
packaged for wip by pho.
An efficient packed, immutable Unicode text type (both strict and
lazy), with a powerful loop fusion optimization framework.
The Text type represents Unicode character strings, in a time and
space-efficient manner. This package provides text processing
capabilities that are optimized for performance critical use, both in
terms of large data quantities and high speed.
The Text type provides character-encoding, type-safe case conversion
via whole-string case conversion functions. It also provides a range
of functions for converting Text values to and from ByteStrings, using
several standard encodings.
Efficient locale-sensitive support for text IO is also supported.
These modules are intended to be imported qualified, to avoid name
clashes with Prelude functions, e.g.
import qualified Data.Text as T
To use an extended and very rich family of functions for working with
Unicode text (including normalization, regular expressions,
non-standard encodings, text breaking, and locales), see the text-icu
package: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-icu
