Does this include the new --gc:arc option? I guess not?

I think it's headed for the 1.1 release. Patch releases never get new features.

I think it's headed for the 1.1 release.

Minor fix: Current devel is already v1.1.1, the next officially released feature release will be 1.2.0.

I don’t understand why the next version will be 1.2 whereas the version 1.1.1 hasn’t been published officially.

devel is never published as an stable version by definition.

I don’t understand why the next version will be 1.2 whereas the version 1.1.1 hasn’t been published officially.

Do you understand why the current release is 1.0.6 (the previous was 1.0.4), "whereas the version 1.0.5 hasn’t been published officially"?

For ARC you can download a nightly build here: https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases/tag/2020-01-27-devel-a716543

Is there no windows nightly build?

kaushalmodi (orginal) [2020-01-28T12:42:47+01:00] view original

Windows builds are also done. Try this few days older nightly build which has windows too: https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases/tag/2020-01-23-version-1-0-89b39ee

didlybom (orginal) [2020-01-28T17:15:14+01:00] view original

Thanks. That one did not have a Windows build either, but an older one did.

kaushalmodi (orginal) [2020-01-28T17:37:17+01:00] view original

Oops! In hurry, I pointed to a 1.0.6 nightly build.

AMoura (orginal) [2020-01-28T22:30:10+01:00] view original

Yes explain me why patches version are incremented every time by 2, there is certainly a logic behind this. And the minor version are incremented by 1 (0.19.6 -> 0.20.0) or it has changed since v1.0.0 ?

Here's a thread on the version numbering: https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/5606

Thank for the link. I didn’t know this version process and I’m not the only.

To be honest I'm now confused about 1.1 being skipped. We've always only skipped odd numbers in the "patch" number (i.e. last number in the version). Wasn't the weird 1.0.99 thing used for the in-development 1.1 version?

AMoura (orginal) [2020-01-29T20:19:36+01:00] view original

Yes me too, the next version with minor change published should be normaly 1.1.0 or 1.1.2 now that the 1.1.1 version already exists.

It was.

But Araq didn't like it, and it wouldn't play nice with the .since pragma and devel.

the next version with minor change published should be normaly 1.1.0 or 1.1.2 now that the 1.1.1 version already exists.

What difference does it make to you personally if the next stable version is called 1.1 or 1.2?
