Changes

Revision history for libBF-hs

0.6.8 – 2024.06.05

  • Fix a bug that would cause (>) and (>=) (in the Ord BigFloat instance) to return incorrect answers when one of the arguments is NaN.
  • Fix a bug which could cause incorrect behavior (e.g., infinite loops) on 32-bit architectures.

0.6.7 – 2023.11.28

  • Add Data instances for BigFloat, Sign, BFRep, and BFNum.

0.6.6 – 2023.07.17

  • Update the vendored version of libbf to include the changes from the 2021-03-27 version of libbf included in quickjs. This includes a bugfix that prevents the bfIsSubnormal function from infinitely looping on AArch64 (and other non-x86 64-bit architectures) on certain inputs.

0.6.5.1 – 2022.08.29

  • Fix a build error on non-Windows OSes accidentally introduced in version 0.6.5.

0.6.5 – 2022.08.29

  • Force static linking against gcc_s on Windows to avoid portability issues.

0.6.4 – 2022.08.11

  • Fix the build on Windows with GHC 9.4, which bundles a Clang-based C toolchain instead of a GCC-based one.

0.6.3 – 2021-10-14

  • Fix an additional compile issue on 32-bit systems. Previously the argument to fmul2Exp was incorrectly specified as an Int64.

0.6.2 – 2021-02-19

  • Fix a bug related to incorrect marshalling of String to C in setString and bfFromString.

0.6.1 – 2021-02-16

  • Fix a linker issue on Windows when loading via the GHC dynamic linker.

0.6 – 2021-01-29

  • Fix a bug with frint and bfRoundInt that was causing incorrect rounding modes to be selected.

  • Implement additional operations on BigFloat values, including some missing predicates, conversions to and from binary form and fused-multiply-add.

  • Fix a compile issue on 32-bit systems.

0.5.2 – 2021-01-12

  • Use install-includes over c-sources for header files to avoid linker issues.

0.5.1 – 2020-07-13

  • Add header files to c-sources field to include them in sdist.

0.5.0 – 2020-07-01

  • First version. Released on an unsuspecting world.
