Changelog

Nowide 11.3.0 (Boost 1.82)

• Add convert_string overload accepting a string
• Add quoted to output (quoted) paths (std::filesystem or boost::filesystem)

Nowide 11.2.0 (Boost 1.80)

• filebuf: Major performance improvement for Bulk I/O
• filebuf: Fix wrong return value of sync when fflush failed
• filebuf: Fix possible undefined behavior in a corner case when nothing was actually written but buffer is in "write" mode
• filebuf: Limit putback of characters (i.e. pbackfail) only allowing putback of buffered characters (may be only 1 character)
• Add missing define NOWIDE_USE_WCHAR_OVERLOADS (standalone only)

Nowide 11.1.4 (Boost 1.79)

• Fix possible redefinition of _LARGEFILE_SOURCE
• Fix missing include when BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H and WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN are defined.
• Fix compile failures on recent MinGW-w64 compilers
• Add sanity checking of the buffer size passed to the (possibly) 64 bit stat function
• Known issues: Read performance for text files is possibly worse than the std streams. Binary files and writing is unaffected.
• Fix possible use-after-free when reusing a closed filebuf

Nowide 11.1.3 (Boost 1.78)

• Fix missing config file in release
• Fix possible double-free when setting a custom buffer (setbuf) after filebuf already allocated an internal buffer
• Handle some warnings (mostly on MSVC)
• Known issues: Read performance for text files is degraded. Binary files and writing is unaffected.

Nowide 11.1.2 (Boost 1.76)

• Don't define __MSVCRT_VERSION__ version to fix compatibility with ucrt
• Known issues: Read performance for text files is degraded. Binary files and writing is unaffected.

Nowide 11.1.1

• Fix discarding of characters for text file streams when seek or sync functions are used and newlines were converted (e.g. on Windows)
• Fix potential use-after-free bug when reusing (via open) a file stream that has been closed
• Fix potential invalid memory access when using a file stream that has been moved or swapped to where the source had a put-back character or was set to unbuffered mode
• Known issues: Read performance for text files is degraded. Binary files and writing is unaffected.

Nowide 11.1.0

• Add support for string_view to narrow and widen
• Add support for UTF character types such as char16_t

Nowide 11.0.0 (Boost 1.74)

• Require C++11 compatible compiler and stdlib
• LFS: Add support for files > 2 GB where the underlying system supports it
• Generic UTF conversion functions are now available in the boost::nowide::utf namespace
• Add support for stat with UTF-8 paths

Nowide 10.0.2

• boost::nowide::cin now ignores CR (\r) characters and treats CTRL+Z at the beginning of a line as EOF (matching std::cin behavior)
• boost::nowide::cin supports sync by flushing the input and console buffer

Nowide 10.0.1 (Boost 1.73)

• IMPORTANT: C++03 support is deprecated and will be removed in the next Boost release
• Fix -Wctor-dtor-privacy warning in trait

Nowide 10.0.0

• Initial Release
