Reintroduced the Chunk class, used by the parsers package
0.12.0.0
A new internal representation makes almost all real-world parsers
faster, sometimes by big margins. For example, parsing JSON data
with aeson is now up to 70% faster. These performance improvements
also come with reduced memory consumption and some new capabilities.
The new match combinator gives both the result of a parse and the
input that it matched.
The test suite has doubled in size. This made it possible to switch
to the new internal representation with a decent degree of
confidence that everything was more or less working.
The benchmark suite now contains a small family of benchmarks taken
from real-world uses of attoparsec.
A few types that ought to have been private now are.
A few obsolete modules and functions have been marked as deprecated.
They will be removed from the next major release.
