Its parameters now + match the parameters of ``strutils.indent``. See issue [#4037](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4037) + for more details. +- The ``matchers`` module has been deprecated. See issue [#2446](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/2446) + for more details. +- The ``json.[]`` no longer returns ``nil`` when a key is not found. Instead it + raises a ``KeyError`` exception. You can compile with the ``-d:nimJsonGet`` + flag to get a list of usages of ``[]``, as well as to restore the operator's + previous behaviour. - When using ``useMalloc``, an additional header containing the size of the allocation will be allocated, to support zeroing memory on realloc as expected by the language. With this change, ``alloc`` and ``dealloc`` are no longer aliases for ``malloc`` and ``free`` - use ``c_malloc`` and ``c_free`` if you need that. + Library Additions ----------------- |
