Improvements:

  • Allow incomplete types in allocator_deallocator. (#153)
  • Give allocator_polymorphic_deallocator/deleter a default constructor. (#155)
  • Expose memory_pool::owns. (#174)

0.7-3

CMake improvements:

  • Increase the CMake minimum required version to 3.14 to reflect reality. (#147)
  • Fixes to container node size generation using CMake on MacOS. (#138)
  • Don't regenerate container node sizes when they already exist.

Bugfixes:

  • Fix broken multi-threading configuration. (#142)
  • Check initial block size for memory_pool_collection properly. (#148)
  • Fix bug in memory_block_stack::owns(). (#151)

0.7-2

Deprecate virtual_memory_page_size; use get_virtual_memory_page_size() instead. (#132)

CMake improvements:

  • Generate container node sizes using CMake, which makes cross-compiling easier (#129)
  • Set CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY properly to support shared libraries (#132)

0.7-1

Just bugfixes:

  • CMake: automatically link libatomic on platforms where that is necessary (#95)
  • catch small block sizes of memory_pool (#113)
  • fix buffer overflow in memory_pool_collection's array allocation (#99)
  • fix compatibility with Windows UWP (#102)
  • fix computation of memory_pool::min_block_size (#110)
  • fix debug assertion in free lists (#111)

0.7

BREAKING: Removed the use of the compatibility library to automatically generate macros and workaround for older compilers. The important compatibility workarounds like the __builtin_clz extension are still used, but workarounds for missing C++11 library features have been removed. In particular, the library now requires compiler support for noexcept, constexpr, alignof and thread_local. This means that GCC 4.8 and Visual Studio version 12.0 (both released in 2013), are now longer supported.

Adapter

BREAKING: Remove Mutex support from allocator_reference and consequently from std_allocator, allocator_deleter, ... Embedding the Mutex with the reference was fundamentally broken and unusable to ensure thread safety. Use a reference to a thread_safe_allocator instead, which actually guarantees thread safety.

Allocator

Add ability to query the minimal block size required by a memory_pool or memory_stack that should contain the given memory. Due to internal data structures and debug fences this is more than the naive memory request, so it can be computed now.

Bugfixes

  • more CMake improvements for cross-compiling, among others
  • bugfixes to support UWP (#80), VxWorks (#81) and QNX (#85, #88, among others)
  • better support missing container node size (#59, #72, among others)
  • fix alignment issues in debug mode
  • fix tracking for allocators without block allocators

0.6-2

Various bug fixes, compiler warning workarounds and CMake improvements accumulated over past two years. Most notable changes:

  • cross compilation works now
  • fallback_allocator is default constructible if stateless
  • add unique_base_ptr to support a unique ptr to a base class
  • add allocate_unique overloads that take a custom mutex
  • allocator deleters are default constructible

0.6-1

  • fix CMake configuration error

  • add static_assert() when default constructing a stateful std_allocator
  • fix various compiler warnings
