Breaking Changes:

  • The encoding library has been replaced with encoding_rs. If you use the trap of YamlDecoder, this change will make your code not compile. An additional enum YamlDecoderTrap has been added to abstract the underlying library and avoid breaking changes in the future. This additionally lifts the encoding dependency on your project if you were using that feature.
    • The signature of the function for YamlDecoderTrap::Call has changed:
    • The encoding::types::DecoderTrap has been replaced with YamlDecoderTrap. 
      #![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
// Before, with `encoding::types::DecoderTrap::Call`
fn(_: &mut encoding::RawDecoder, _: &[u8], _: &mut encoding::StringWriter) -> bool;
// Now, with `YamlDecoderTrap::Call`
fn(_: u8, _: u8, _: &[u8], _: &mut String) -> ControlFlow<Cow<'static str>>;
}
      Please refer to the YamlDecoderTrapFn documentation for more details.
