Zolang v0.1.18 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-12-31 // almost 6 years ago
  • Minor compilation speed improvements


Previous changes from v0.1.17

  • 0.1.17

    ๐Ÿ‘‰ Users can now use the metaprogramming features raw and only

    raw

    raw {'Any text here'}
    

    This will tell the compiler to skip the code generation process for "Any text here" and forward it as is to the compilers output

    only

    only "<flag1>", "<flag2>",... { <code> }

    ๐Ÿ— Using only we can tell the compiler to ignore code for buildSettings not included in a comma separated list of flags

    only "python2.7", "swift" {
      print("text")
    }
    

    Putting it all Together

    ๐ŸŒฒ Using these two features (raw & only) we could create a facade for logging to the console:

    describe Sys {
      static log return from (txt as text) {
        only "python2.7", "swift" {
          raw {'print(txt)'}
        }
        only "kotlin" {
          raw {'println(txt)'}
        }
      }
    }
    
    Sys.log("Hello World!")
