1.1.1 — Japan

I will be away in Japan for a few weeks, which means that it is probably a good time for a bugfix release. No new exciting feature in this release, but several small improvements here and there.

Bug fixes

• Work around a Clang bug to fix the implicit deduction guide of counting_adapter in C++17
• Add missing constructor to stable_adapter<self_sort_adapter> to make implicit deduction guides work in C++17
• Fix warning about class/struct difference between declaration and definition of hybrid_adapter

Tiny improvements

• Make the constructors of sorter adapters taking one or more sorters explicit
• probe::rem now performs a single pass over the sequence even when passed non-random-access iterators, which might make it slightly more performant in this case
• Code using std::result_of now uses std::invoke_result when available, making it more robust against type system subtleties
• More noexcept here and there
• Tiny attempts to improve the build times and produced binary size here and there, but it unfortunately shouldn't make any noticeable difference

1.1.0 — New job

This release doesn't bring many new things into cpp-sort, but has a few worthwhile bug & consistency fixes. I got a new job, hence the release name, and wanted to push everything that was ready because I might not be as active on the project for some time.

There were a few global efforts to reduce unneeded template instantiations, reduce the produced binary size and improve compile times a bit, but these changes are anecdotal at best, and probably don't make a noticeable difference.

New features

• New measure of presortedness: probe::mono, after the equivalent Mono described in Sort Race by Zhang, Meng and Liang

Bug fixes

• Fix compiler error in hybrid_adapter when too many sorters of the same category are passed
• Make sure all adapted sorters can also be converted to function pointers
• Fix probe::runs: it only took increasing sequences into account and didn't behave properly with non-increasing ones (where several elements in an increasing sequence compare equivalent)
• Properly perfect-forward iterable parameters in hybrid_adapter
• Actually provide container_aware_adapter when including <cpp-sort/adapters.h>
• Apply utility::as_function to the comparison and projection functions passed to self_sort_adapter, fixing a few errors when it is used with pointers to class members

Tiny improvements

• Don't copy instances of locale in case_insensitive_less
• Actually create a minimal number of poplars in poplar_sorter, even in corner cases
• Tiny optimization in indirect_adapter
• Don't wrap adapters in sorter_facade when they don't need to, slightly reducing the template "stack traces" when there are errors
• Small changes here and there to reduce the binary size a bit

Tooling

• Set up code coverage via codecov.io (#120)
• Globally document exception guarantees for the library (#105)
• Enable ccache for clang++ with the Linux CI
• Simpler and more consistent .travis.yml where possible

1.0.0

This release is merely a point in time where the project starts being versioned. A changelog would be meaningless since there is nothing to compare it against.
