Changelog for ghc-exactprint-0.4.0.0
2015-09-28 v0.4.0.0
* Rework HasDecls so that there are only instances for which it is
idempotent. Provide functions for managing an LHsBind which is not
idempotent, and performing general transformations on an AST
including FunBinds.
* Manage LHsDecl instances so that the Annotation always attaches
to the wrapped item, so that they can be seamlessly used in a top
level (wrapped) or local (unwrapped) context.
* Tweak transformations based on HaRe integration.
* This release supports the HaRe 8.0 release, which finally works
with GHC 7.10.2
* Rename `exactPrintWithAnns` to `exactPrint`. This will possibly
break earlier client libraries, but is a simple rename.
* Bring in semanticPrintM which allows wrapper functions to be
provided for the generated output, for use when emitting e.g. HTML
marked up source.
2015-08-13 v0.3.1.1
* Add missing test files to sdist, closes #23
2015-08-02 v0.3.1
* Mark LHS at the beginning of HsCase and HsIf expressions
* Mark trailing semi colons on ANN pragmas
* Correctly mark trailing semi colons distinctly from internal semicolons
* setPrecedingLinesDecl applies the setting to both the Decl and
the item wrapped in the Decl.
2015-07-20 v0.3
Substantial rework to manage changes introduced in GHC 7.10.2 rc2
and beyond.
Simplification of the core Annotation data type coupled with
simplification of the various phases, by @mpickering.
Introduction of initial Transform functions, driven by the needs
of HaRe [1] and apply-refact [2] for applying hlint hints. Both of
these are currently works in progress, and this module is likely
to change substantially in future releases.
Support for processing files making use of CPP.

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.
