Cabal>=1.20 allows control over parallelism when compiling grammars from
Setup.hs and WebSetup.hs.
base>=4.6 allows conditional compilation with CPP to be eliminated from
a few modules.
base-4.6 corresponds to GHC 7.6.3, which is what you get in
Debian 8 (aka jessie, aka oldstable) from 2015.
+ The PGF service now reads and caches dependency label configuration files.
+ The grammar info returned by command=grammar has a new boolean field
'hasDependencyLabels' to indicate if dependency labels were found for
the grammar. Also, command=deptree will now fail if no labels are present.
+ The minibar only shows word dependency trees if labels are present.
+ Also changed the type of getDepLabels from [String] -> Labels to
String -> Labels, since all uses were in the form "getDepLabels . lines".
This was done by introducing an intermediate representation for the LaTeX
pictures produced by the LaTeX renderer and providing a new backend that
outputs SVG instead of LaTeX.
They seemed very difficult to use without the documentation, since their
types are not particularly self documenting.
Also documented what the (Bool,Bool) argument to PGF.graphvizAbstractTree
is for.
Becacuse of the new special tokens added to the Symbol type, .gfo and .pgf
files produced with the current version of GF can not always be used with
older versions of GF and the PGF run-time system.
The PGF version number was increased from (2,0) to (2,1). GF can still
read version (2,0) and (1,0), so old PGF files continue to work.
The GFO version was increased from "GF03" to "GF04".
The parse/translate/c-parse/c-translate commands now recognize the option
jsontree=true to augment the returned JSON structure with a field called
"jsontree" next to the field "tree", or "jsontrees" next to "trees",
containing the the returned syntax tree in JSON format (the same format
returned by the abstrjson command, similar to the format returned in the
"brackets" field).
2 modules: Name clashes caused by Applicative-Monad change in Prelude
2 modules: Ambiguities caused by Foldable/Traversable in Prelude
2 modules: Backwards incompatible changes in time-1.5 for defaultTimeLocale
9 modules: {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleContexts #-} (because GHC checks inferred types
now, in addition to explicitly given type signatures)
Also silenced warnings about tab characters in source files.
By adding the flag -haskell=variants to the command line, GF will now generate
linearization functions in Haskell that support variants. Variants are
represented as lists in Haskell.
Variants inside pre { ... } expressions are still ignored.
TODO: apply some monad laws to generate more compact code (using an
intermediate representation of the generated Haskell code, instead of
pretty printing directly from the GF code).
Move the Haskell representation of the common linearization type {s:T} to the
shared module PGF.Haskell, so that the same overloaded projection function
proj_s can be used for all concrete syntaxes.
Common code has been lifted out from the generated Haskell modules to
an auxiliary module PGF.Haskell, which is currently included in the
regular PGF library, although it is independent of it and probably belongs
in a separate library.
The type Str used by linearization functions is now based on a token
type Tok, which is defined in PGF.Haskell.
PGF.Haskell.Tok is similar to the type GF.Data.Str.Tok, but it has
constructors for the special tokens BIND, SOFT_BIND and CAPIT, and there is
a function
fromStr :: Str -> String
that computes the effects of these special tokens.
