- Update to version 8.0.0
* Enabled compile-time format string check by default.
* Added compile-time formatting.
* Optimized handling of format specifiers during format string
compilation.
* Added the ``_cf`` user-defined literal to represent a
compiled format string. It can be used instead of the
``FMT_COMPILE`` macro.
* Format string compilation now requires ``format`` functions
of ``formatter`` specializations for user-defined types to
be ``const``.
* Added UDL-based named argument support to format string
compilation.
* Added format string compilation support to ``fmt::print``.
* Added initial support for compiling {fmt} as a C++20 module.
* Made symbols private by default reducing shared library size
* Optimized includes making the result of preprocessing
``fmt/format.h``.
* Added support of ranges with non-const ``begin`` / ``end``
* Added support of ``std::byte`` and other formattable types
to ``fmt::join``.
* Implemented the default format for
``std::chrono::system_clock``.
* Made more chrono specifiers locale independent by default.
Use the ``'L'`` specifier to get localized formatting.
* Improved locale handling in chrono formatting.
* Deprecated ``fmt/locale.h`` moving the formatting functions
that take a locale to ``fmt/format.h`` (``char``) and
``fmt/xchar`` (other overloads). This doesn't introduce a
dependency on ``<locale>`` so there is virtually no compile
time effect.
* Made parameter order in ``vformat_to`` consistent with
``format_to``.
* Added support for time points with arbitrary durations.
* Formatting floating-point numbers no longer produces
trailing zeros by default.
for consistency with ``std::format``.
* Dropped a limit on the number of elements in a range and
replaced ``{}`` with ``[]`` as range delimiters for
consistency with Python's ``str.format``.
* The ``'L'`` specifier for locale-specific numeric formatting
can now be combined with presentation specifiers as in
``std::format``.
* Made the ``0`` specifier ignored for infinity and NaN.
* Made the hexfloat formatting use the right alignment by
default.
* Removed the deprecated numeric alignment (``'='``). Use the
``'0'`` specifier instead.
* Removed the deprecated ``fmt/posix.h`` header that has been
replaced with ``fmt/os.h``.
* Removed the deprecated ``format_to_n_context``,
``format_to_n_args`` and ``make_format_to_n_args``. They
have been replaced with ``format_context``, ``format_args`
and ``make_format_args`` respectively.
* Moved ``wchar_t``-specific functions and types to
``fmt/wchar.h``. You can define
``FMT_DEPRECATED_INCLUDE_WCHAR`` to automatically include
``fmt/wchar.h`` from ``fmt/format.h`` but this will be
disabled in the next major release.
* Fixed handling of the ``'+'`` specifier in localized
formatting.
* Added support for the ``'s'`` format specifier that gives
textual representation of ``bool``.
* Made ``fmt::ptr`` work with function pointers.
* Fixed ``fmt::formatted_size`` with format string compilation
* Fixed handling of empty format strings during format string
compilation.
* Fixed handling of enums in ``fmt::to_string``.
* Improved width computation.
* The experimental fast output stream (``fmt::ostream``) is
now truncated by default for consistency with ``fopen``.
* Fixed moving of ``fmt::ostream`` that holds buffered data
* Replaced the ``fmt::system_error`` exception with a function
of the same name that constructs ``std::system_error``.
* Replaced the ``fmt::windows_error`` exception with a
function of the same name that constructs
``std::system_error`` with the category returned by
``fmt::system_category()``.
* Replaced ``fmt::error_code`` with ``std::error_code`` and
made it formattable.
* Added speech synthesis support.
* Made ``format_to`` work with a memory buffer that has a
custom allocator.
* Added ``Allocator::max_size`` support to
``basic_memory_buffer``.
* Added wide string support to ``fmt::join``
* Made iterators passed to ``formatter`` specializations via a
format context satisfy C++20 ``std::output_iterator``
requirements.
* Optimized the ``printf`` implementation.
* Improved detection of ``constexpr`` ``char_traits``.
* Fixed exception propagation from iterators.
* Improved ``strftime`` error handling.
* Stopped using deprecated GCC UDL template extension.
* Added ``fmt/args.h`` to the install target.
* Error messages are now passed to assert when exceptions are
disabled.
* Added the ``FMT_MASTER_PROJECT`` CMake option to control
build and install targets when {fmt} is included via
``add_subdirectory``.
* Improved build configuration.
* Fixed various warnings and compilation issues.
* Improved documentation.
* Continuous integration and test improvements.
