package distributed

0.6.0 (2019-11-24)

• move from jbuilder to dune

• move from topkg to to dune-release

• Lwt 5.0.0 compatibility see #6.

0.5.0 (2018-03-25)

• Remove dependency on lwt_log use logs_lwt instead to ensure compatibility with >= lwt 3.1.0 see #2.

• Remove usage of Lwt.ignore_result see #3.

• Ensure that on node start up if using a remote config then any remote nodes are connected to first before proceeding. Failure to connected to any remote node in the config will cause the node to not start.

• Move to using Jbuilder (using topkg jbuilder integration as well) instead of Oasis. The library will now appear as two packages on opam : distributed (the concurrent I/O agnostic core) and distributed-lwt the lwt based implementation.

• Moved to using odoc to generate documentation.

• Stopped using oUnit for unit tests.

• Ensure compatibility with lwt >= 4.0.0 (safe semantics) #3.

• Ensure pids are unique across functor invocations.

• Simplify library : remove heartbeat functionality, can be duplicated at application level using receive time-outs and spawning corresponding process on remote node.

• Update case/receive API so that calling receive/receive_loop with a list of empty matchers is a compile time error. New APIs are val case : (message_type -> (unit -> 'a t) option) -> 'a matcher_list, termination_case : (monitor_reason -> 'a t) -> 'a matcher_list, val (|.) : 'a matcher_list -> 'a matcher_list -> 'a matcher_list, val receive : ?timeout_duration:float -> 'a matcher_list -> 'a option t, val receive_loop : ?timeout_duration:float -> bool matcher_list -> unit t.

• Added appveyor CI support.

• Added uwt support.

0.4.0 (2017-01-18)

• Distributed 0.4.0 is Lwt 3.0.0 compatible see #1.

• Changed the signature of case function from val case : (message_type -> bool) -> (message_type -> 'a t) -> 'a matcher to val case : (message_type -> (unit -> 'a t) option) -> 'a matcher to remove unnecessary asserts.

• Added more unit tests to increase code coverage, integrated with coveralls in build process to get automatic coverage reports.

• bug fixes related to heart beat monitoring.

0.3.0 (2016-11-06)

• Removed dependency on batteries to allow compatibility with more versions of ocaml.

• Added receive_loop auxiliary function.

• Added optional monitor remote node function to run_node.

• Modified signature of spawn and run node slightly to take a function (unit -> unit t) instead of unit t.

• Made add_remote_node idempotent when adding a node that already exists.

• Added more examples.

• Added online docs.

• Fix bug related to not cleaning up mailbox in case of exception in user provider message handler or recursive call in user provided handler.

• Fix bug related heart beat processing.

0.2.0 (2016-10-25)

• No functional changes over the previous release, just changes related to opam packaging.

0.1.0 (2016-10-23)

• Initial release.
