2025-07-07	std.fmt: breaking API changes	Andrew Kelley
	added adapter to AnyWriter and GenericWriter to help bridge the gap between old and new API make std.testing.expectFmt work at compile-time std.fmt no longer has a dependency on std.unicode. Formatted printing was never properly unicode-aware. Now it no longer pretends to be. Breakage/deprecations: * std.fs.File.reader -> std.fs.File.deprecatedReader * std.fs.File.writer -> std.fs.File.deprecatedWriter * std.io.GenericReader -> std.io.Reader * std.io.GenericWriter -> std.io.Writer * std.io.AnyReader -> std.io.Reader * std.io.AnyWriter -> std.io.Writer * std.fmt.format -> std.fmt.deprecatedFormat * std.fmt.fmtSliceEscapeLower -> std.ascii.hexEscape * std.fmt.fmtSliceEscapeUpper -> std.ascii.hexEscape * std.fmt.fmtSliceHexLower -> {x} * std.fmt.fmtSliceHexUpper -> {X} * std.fmt.fmtIntSizeDec -> {B} * std.fmt.fmtIntSizeBin -> {Bi} * std.fmt.fmtDuration -> {D} * std.fmt.fmtDurationSigned -> {D} * {} -> {f} when there is a format method * format method signature - anytype -> std.io.Writer - inferred error set -> error{WriteFailed} - options -> (deleted) std.fmt.Formatted - now takes context type explicitly - no fmt string

2024-02-28	make aro-based translate-c lazily built from source	Andrew Kelley
	Part of #19063. Primarily, this moves Aro from deps/ to lib/compiler/ so that it can be lazily compiled from source. src/aro_translate_c.zig is moved to lib/compiler/aro_translate_c.zig and some of Zig CLI logic moved to a main() function there. aro_translate_c.zig becomes the "common" import for clang-based translate-c. Not all of the compiler was able to be detangled from Aro, however, so it still, for now, remains being compiled with the main compiler sources due to the clang-based translate-c depending on it. Once aro-based translate-c achieves feature parity with the clang-based translate-c implementation, the clang-based one can be removed from Zig. Aro made it unnecessarily difficult to depend on with these .def files and all these Zig module requirements. I looked at the .def files and made these observations: - The canonical source is llvm .def files. - Therefore there is an update process to sync with llvm that involves regenerating the .def files in Aro. - Therefore you might as well just regenerate the .zig files directly and check those into Aro. - Also with a small amount of tinkering, the file size on disk of these generated .zig files can be made many times smaller, without compromising type safety in the usage of the data. This would make things much easier on Zig as downstream project, particularly we could remove those pesky stubs when bootstrapping. I have gone ahead with these changes since they unblock me and I will have a chat with Vexu to see what he thinks.
