## 4.0.1
- Updated SIMD C code for Windows compatibility
- Removed include of `unistd.h` in `simd_c/reedsolomon.c`
- Removed GCC `nonnull` attribute in `simd_c/reedsolomon.h`
- See PR #63 #64 for details
- Replaced use of `libc::uint8_t` in `src/galois_8.rs` with `u8`
## 4.0.0
- Major API restructure: removed `Shard` type in favor of generic functions
- The logic of this crate is now generic over choice of finite field
- The SIMD acceleration feature for GF(2^8) is now activated with the `simd-accel` Cargo feature. Pure-rust behavior is default.
- Ran rustfmt
- Adds a GF(2^16) implementation
## 3.1.2 (not published)
- Doc fix
- Added space before parantheses in code comments and documentation
- Disabled SIMD C code for Android and iOS targets entirely
## 3.1.1
- Fixed `Matrix::augment`
- The error checking code was incorrect
- Since this method is used in internal code only, and the only use case is a correct use case, the error did not lead to any bugs
- Fixed benchmark data
- Previously used MB=10^6 bytes while I should have used MB=2^20 bytes
- Table in README has been updated accordingly
- The `>= 2.1.0` data is obtained by measuring again with the corrected `rse-benchmark` code
- The `2.0.X` and `1.X.X` data are simply adjusted by mutiplying `10^6` then dividing by `2^20`
- Dependencies update
- Updated `rand` from `0.4` to `0.5.4`
- Added special handling in `build.rs` for CC options on Android and iOS
- `-march=native` is not available for GCC on Android, see issue #23
## 3.1.0
- Impl'd `std::error::Error` for `reed_solomon_erasure::Error` and `reed_solomon_erasure::SBSError`
- See issue [#17](https://github.com/darrenldl/reed-solomon-erasure/issues/17), suggested by [DrPeterVanNostrand](https://github.com/DrPeterVanNostrand)
- Added fuzzing suite
- No code changes due to this as no bugs were found
- Upgraded InversionTree QuickCheck test
- No code changes due to this as no bugs were found
- Upgraded test suite for main codec methods (e.g. encode, reconstruct)
- A lot of heavy QuickCheck tests were added
- No code changes due to this as no bugs were found
- Upgraded test suite for ShardByShard methods
- A lot of heavy QuickCheck tests were added
- No code changes due to this as no bugs were found
- Minor code refactoring in `reconstruct_internal` method
- This means `reconstruct` and related methods are slightly more optimized
## 3.0.3
- Added QuickCheck tests to the test suite
- InversionTree is heavily tested now
- No code changes as no bugs were found
- Deps update
- Updated rayon from 0.9 to 1.0
## 3.0.2
- Same as 3.0.1, but 3.0.1 had unapplied changes
## 3.0.1 (yanked)
- Updated doc for `with_buffer` variants of verifying methods
- Stated explicitly that the buffer contains the correct parity shards after a successful call
- Added tests for the above statement
## 3.0.0
- Added `with_buffer` variants for verifying methods
- This gives user the option of reducing heap allocation(s)
- Core code clean up, improvements, and review, added more AUDIT comments
- Improved shard utils
- Added code to remove leftover parity shards in `reconstruct_data_shards`
- This means one fewer gotcha of using the methods
- `ShardByShard` code review and overhaul
- `InversionTree` code review and improvements
## 2.4.0
- Added more flexibility for `convert_2D_slices` macro
- Now accepts expressions rather than just identifiers
- The change requires change of syntax
## 2.3.3
- Replaced all slice splitting functions in `misc_utils` with std lib ones or rayon ones
- This means there are fewer heap allocations in general
## 2.3.2
- Made `==`(`eq`) for `ReedSolomon` more reasonable
- Previously `==` would compare
- data shard count
- parity shard count
- total shard count
- internal encoding matrix
- internal `ParallelParam`
- Now it only compares
- data shard count
- parity shard count
## 2.3.1
- Added info on encoding behaviour to doc
## 2.3.0
- Made Reed-Solomon codec creation methods return error instead of panic when shard numbers are not correct
## 2.2.0
- Fixed SBS error checking code
- Documentation fixes and polishing
- Renamed `Error::InvalidShardsIndicator` to `Error::InvalidShardFlags`
- Added more details to documentation on error handling
- Error handling code overhaul and checks for all method variants
- Dead commented out code cleanup and indent fix
## 2.1.0
- Added Nicolas's SIMD C code files, gaining major speedup on supported CPUs
- Added support for "shard by shard" encoding, allowing easier streamed encoding
- Added functions for shard by shard encoding
## 2.0.0
- Complete rewrite of most code following Klaus Post's design
- Added optimsations (parallelism, loop unrolling)
- 4-5x faster than `1.X.X`
## 1.1.1
- Documentation polish
- Added documentation badge to README
- Optimised internal matrix related operations
- This largely means `decode_missing` is faster
## 1.1.0
- Added more helper functions
- Added more tests
## 1.0.1
- Added more tests
- Fixed decode_missing
- Previously may reconstruct the missing shards with incorrect length
## 1.0.0
- Added more tests
- Added integration with Codecov (via kcov)
- Code refactoring
- Added integration with Coveralls (via kcov)
## 0.9.1
- Code restructuring
- Added documentation
## 0.9.0
- Base version
