Changelog for ghc-exactprint-0.2
2015-03-24 v0.2
This release contains a major rewrite of all internal modules.
The external interface has also changed significantly. A description is
omitted.
# Top-level changes
The most notable change is that the common structor of the modules known as
`ExactPrint` and `Annotate` has been factored out into a common module
(`Annotate`). The aforementioned modules are now known as `Delta` and
`Print` and contain functions to interpret this common structure.
The top level module `ExactPrint` now just reexports a consistent interface
from the base modules.
Introduced a new module `Lookup` which contains a mapping from AnnKeywordId
to their String representation.
# Internal Changes
`Annotate` contains all the information about which annotations appear on
each AST element. This is achieved by building up a syntax tree (using a
free monad) which can then be interpreted by programs requiring access to
this information.
# Layout compensation
The method which compensates for layout rules has been clarified.
1. When the Layout Flag is activated in `Annotate`, we mark
the current column as the start of the layout block.
2. This is important when we move to a new line. We take the offset at
that current point to be the baseline and calculate the correct next
position based on this.
3. This method is very general as one can think of a entire source file as
obeying layout rules where the offset is equal to zero.
