0.1.2 2021-05-13
[MAJOR CHANGES]
- In this release, network serialization has been completely switched over
from JSON to CBOR (via CBOR::Simple and Cro::CBOR). This allows a much
richer data model on the wire, more accurate round-tripping, and much
faster handling for floating point and packed binary data.
HOWEVER: This also means that some data will be coming through in native
(or in the case of enums, numeric) format, rather than converted to strings
as with JSON. You may be assuming receipt of string data in some places;
expect to undo any workarounds you may have added.
ALSO: In order to provide easier-to-read debugging output, some debug code
outputs messages in prettified JSON format, which as mentioned above can't
represent the full richness of CBOR data. The following JSON::Fast PR will
at least prevent debug output failures; if you're having debug issues,
apply the JSON::Fast PR, reinstall it, and try again:
