CHANGES.md

0.4.5

• The "compile" CLI command has a new option; --pretty which formats the generated code in a human-readable manner. If --optimization-level is 0 (zero), this flag is always enabled thus it only makes sense to pass this when --optimization-level is higher than 0 (zero).
• The "compile" CLI command has a new option; --no-sort. Source files are sorted by filename by default before compiled unless this (--no-sort) option is specified.
• Changed: When passing a non-function argument to Object.prototype.forEach, throw a TypeError instead of failing later
• Changed: "build-weblib" CLI command: Produce move-VERSION*.js files as well as move*.js files. This makes it easier for people to use a specific version of the library knowing it will not be changed. This change is effective on the website movelang.org starting with 0.4.4 (e.g. http://movelang.org/move-0.4.4.js exists but http://movelang.org/move-0.4.3.js does not).
• Fixed: The dprint runtime function is only imported when the source is wrapped as a module or scoped.

0.4.4

• The "import" expression now supports relative imports (e.g. import .foo, ...bar/baz is equivalent to foo = require './foo', baz = require '../../bar/baz').
• The EHTML preprocessor now supports implicit view constructor createView
• The global variable __move has been deprecated. Use the global variable Move instead.
• Added a new runtime function "dprint" which is similar to "print" but should be used for debugging and is prefixed by the calling module's id (e.g. dprint message is equivalent to print '['+module.id']', message).
• Changed Object.prototype.forEach to by default iterate over all properties, not just the object's own properties. The extend runtime function has also changed because of this -- by default the extend function now reads all properties (traverses the complete prototype chain) from the source object.
• EHTML separated into two components (preprocessor and runtime library), making it available from the move-rt library.
• The "compile" CLI command has changed:
  • Changed -b short option as alias for --bundle-standalone to alias for --bundle
  • Renamed -C short option as alias for --basedir to -d
  • Added option --auto, -a which when set keeps the program running and automatically re-compiles when any source file changes.
  • Added option --silent to disable outputting of informational messages
  • Changed behavior: When passing --basedir but no input files, all move files found in the base directory are used as input. This enables things like move compile -abd client/src -o public/bundle.js to automatically compile all move files in a directory when they change and produce a bundle.
• The "create" runtime function no longer supports passing a constructor function. Whatever object is passed -- function type or not -- the resulting object will have the passed object as its prototype.
• The "extend" runtime function no longer supports passing a modifier function. Whatever object is passed -- function type or not -- the resulting object will receive a copy of the passed object's values.
• NPM installation improvements
