v0.7.0-preview2

What's Changed

Note: recreating release due to upload bug

This is a big change to the SerdeInfo surface area and usage. The primary change is to move from a single type, SerdeInfo, to an interface, ISerdeInfo. This also expands the set of capabilities for ISerdeInfo and lets it represent more kinds of types. There is some initial work at supporting unions, although unions must still be implemented manually (the source generator doesn't do it automatically).

• Rename TypeInfo to SerdeInfo by @agocke in #180
• Include SerdeInfo for all members by @agocke in #182
• Move over to ISerdeInfo interface by @agocke in #183
• Rename ISerdeInfo methods by @agocke in #184
• Add TypeAttributes to ISerdeInfo by @agocke in #185
• Fix ThroughType attribute named arg by @agocke in #186
• Provide an error if the explicit wrapper is bad by @agocke in #187
• More SerdeInfo renames by @agocke in #190

v0.7.0-preview1

This release continues themes from the previous release, removing support for the old ISerialize interface and moving entirely to ISerialize<T>. It also moves more functionality into TypeInfo, which removes the need for generic virtual methods in some cases.

What's Changed

• Get rid of old ISerialize, non-TypeInfo support by @agocke in #172
• Remove SerializeNotNull by @agocke in #173
• Set serde-dn.sln as the default sln by @agocke in #174
• Move more pieces over to TypeInfo by @agocke in #175
• Refactor code and reduce duplication by @agocke in #176
• Fix ThrowIfMissing to allow making arbitrary fields optional by @agocke in #177
• Add more info to TypeInfo by @agocke in #178

v0.6.0

What's Changed

This is a big release that should be mostly compatible with v0.5.2. There are two large changes:

1. There is a new ISerialize<T> interface which will eventually become the replacement for ISerialize entirely. The idea is to mirror the ISerialize<T> and IDeserialize<T> interfaces and use the same structure for both.
2. There is a new TypeInfo class which is used to drive serialization of pre-defined types. This should improve code quality and performance in the most common scenarios.

The next release will be a breaking change to move off ISerialize to ISerialize<T> entirely. This is a transitional release where both interfaces stay around.

v0.6.0-preview7

What's Changed

Adds a new "Serde.TypeInfo" abstraction. This abstraction addresses a lot of different issues:

• Avoids overuse of generic virtual methods, causing perf and size problems on Native AOT
• Reduces codegen by removing the expensive visitor abstraction
• Provides uniform way of accessing attributes at little to no performance overhead

Right now this abstraction is provided in addition to the old visitors. Once scenarios have been proved out, old abstractions will likely be removed. Some visitor abstraction will likely stick around for scenarios that need maximum flexibility, but they will be less common and more specialized.

v0.6.0-preview6

What's Changed

This version has two important and impactful breaking changes.

1. "Visitors" for deserialization are no longer passed as generic parameters in IDeserializer.Deserialize*. If you implemented IDeserializer, you will need to change all your methods to take IDeserializeVisitor<T> instead.
2. The IDeserialize.Deserialize method now takes an interface instead of a constrained generic parameter.

• Use boxed interface visitors instead of constrained generics by @agocke in #159
• Remove constrained generic from Deserialize by @agocke in #160
• Bump version to preview 6 by @agocke in #161
