Changelog for ghcitui-0.4.1.1

Revision history for ghcitui

Fixed dependency error with fsnotify failing to build due to text show conflict.

Interruptable expressions! This was a huge rework of the code. You can now press Ctrl+c and expression evaluation will be interrupted! Very handy for avoiding hanging. See GitHub Issue #49 for details.

Large overhaul in general, as GHCiTUI has moved to an async daemon scheduling model.

Ghcitui.Brick
- Introduction of the new CustomAppEvent to handle new event handling.
- The brickApp now specifies a CustomAppEvent.
- Moved event utils to EventUtils.hs
- Separated out Events.hs into InterpWindowEvents.hs and SourceWindowEvents.hs.
- Introduced the callback functions handleSourceWindowPostCb and interpWindowPostCb.
Ghcitui.Core
- Removed the run command as it was misleading in an asynchronous context. Replaced with threadUnsafeRun.
- Added the schedule and scheduleWithCb functions, which mostly replace the intent of run, but work with async.
- Added interruptDaemon to call the interrupt signal.
- emptyInterpreterState now must be run under IO, as it must set up the lock.
- Added readyToExec to check if the ghci handle lock is taken.

In general, lots of doc fixes.

Fixed a bug where the module display wouldn't reveal the source in the Source Window. when there was only one module. See GitHub Issue #48 for details.

Ghcitui.Brick
- Large rework of SourceWindow's end calculation.
  - Removed updateSrcWindowEnd, replaced with updateVerticalSpace.
  - Added srcWindowLineDiffCount.

Can now parse functions with apostraphes in names. (Issue #38)
Switching between files when updating contexts now snaps to the stopped line (Issue #41)

Ghcitui.Brick
- Added functions to support tab completion.
Ghcitui.Core
- Added Ghcitui.Ghcid.ParseTabCompletions module.
- Added Ghcitui.Ghcid.Daemon.tabComplete.
- Moved ParseError to its own module (Ghcitui.Ghcid.ParseError).
- Removed lazy data fields in records in
  - Ghcitui.Ghcid.Daemon.BreakpointArg
  - Ghcitui.Ghcid.Daemon.InterpState
  - Possibly a few more
Other
- Update version for vty.

Can't parse functions with apostrophes in names. (Issue #38) (fixed in 0.3.0.0)
Switching between files when updating contexts does not snap to the stopped line (Issue #41) (fixed in 0.3.0.0)
Unable to interrupt expressions (fixed in 0.4.0.0)
Inability to suspend operation through Ctrl+z.

First release! This is a "public beta" release, which we try to get feedback for higher priority features.

Occasionally we get a SEGV on start up. Uncertain why. Very infrequent--likely a race condition in Vty or GHCiD?
String variables which contain quotes are not parsed correctly.
Unable to interrupt expressions (fixed in 0.4.0.0)
Currently no remapping of keybindings or colours.
CRLF line endings don't work (fixed in 0.2.0.0)
Inability to suspend operation through Ctrl+z.
