Change Log
==========

4.1.1
-----
- fix RawArray blanket implementation for Array types

4.1.0

- add generic parameter to Array to support reverse string representation
- add Bytes, Bytes4, Bytes20 and Bytes32StrRev type aliases
- add support for no-std to confined collections

4.0.2
-----
- fix for Array serde encoding to support non-standard hex implementations 
  on top
- update dependencies
- pin dependencies to maintain MSRV

4.0.1
-----
- fix FromHex Array implementation bug

3.14.0
------
- New collection confinement module

3.10.0
------
- `FlagVec::is_empty` and `count_flags` methods
- Use of v2.10 derivation crate

3.9.0
-----
- Bumped `derive` dependency version

3.8.2
-----
- Feature `hex` becomes default and independent from `std` in `amplify_num`
- `DivRem` trait implemented for all small integer types

3.8.1
-----
- `Index` and `IndexMut` traits implemented for `Slice32`

3.8.0
-----
- Better no_std support: `std` and `alloc` features for the main crate and
  `amplify_num`
- `amplify_num::he`x now works in no_std mode
- New Slice32 type
- Fixed MSRV broken by serdr_yaml dependency

3.7.0
-----
- Numerics moved into dedicated `amplify_num` crate
- Multiple fixes & improvements to numeric arithmetics
- Numeric API finalization

3.6.0
-----
- Bit-sized precise integers (`u5`, `u6`, `u7`, `u24`)
- Little-endian conversion functions to large numeric types
- Clippy code linting
- MSRV reduced to 1.36.0

3.5.0
-----
- Introducing large unsigned integer types based on `bitcoin` crate original 
  code as `num` mod (`u256`, `u512`, `u1024`)
- Introducing `hex` mod with hexadecimal conversion traits and helpers from
  `bitcoin_hashes`
- Moving feature flag types from `descriptor-wallet` library
- Re-exporting `amplify_derive` derivation macros if `derive` feature is used
- Making `derive` feature default
- Improvements to `IoError` type (better `Debug` implementation)

3.1.0
-----
- Wrapper::copy()

3.0.0
-----
- Internet addresses moved to separate external `inet2_addr` crate in
  <https://github.com/internet2-org/rust-internet2>. This allows to get rid of
  complex dependencies (Tor, Ed25519) and vendored SSL support

2.4.0
-----
- Ordering for Internet types
- Efficient (clonable/copyable) representation of ::std::io::Error with IoError
  type

2.3.0
-----

- Serde helper traits for serialization into YAML, JSON and TOML in display
  derives

2.2.0
-----
- Updating aplify_derive dependency
- Implementation of Hash derive for internet address types

2.1.0
-----
- Internet address-specific error types (#31)

2.0.5
-----
- stringly_conversions are now separate feature

2.0.4
-----
- Including alloc feature from stringly_conversions mod

2.0.3
-----
- Fixing feature set related to stringly conversions and serde helpers

2.0.2
-----
- Fixing serde serialization helpers for `InetSocketAddr` and `InetSocketAddrExt` 
  types

2.0.1
-----
- Fixing serialization for `InetSocketAddr` and `InetSocketAddrExt` types

2.0.0
-----
### New features
- Wrapper derive macro, replacing old declarative macto `wrapper!`, with support 
  for generics and complex internal structure

### Breaking changes
- Adoption of the new `stringly_conversions` and `serde_str_helpers` crates. 
  Crates are re-exported.
- Removal of `Service`, `TryService` and `Exec` traits, which are moved into new 
  `lnpbp_service` crate
- Removal of `async` feature and trait (no needed once service traits got moved)
- New simple `none!()` macro for semantic representation of empty type creation 
  with `Default::default()`

1.2.0
-----
### New features
- Exposing `vendored_openssl` feature introduced in the underlying `torut` crate
  that allows to build with vendored version of OpenSSL library (useful for 
  mobile platforms)
- Inprovements to Internet addresses module

1.1.0
-----
### New features
- Transfer from LNP/BP Core Library:
  * `Service` & `TryService` traits
  * Internet & socket addresses supporting Tor
  * `Bipolar` trait for efficient stream management
### Breaking changes
- Refactored set of features
### CI & docs
- More advanced CI testing all features and dependency builds

1.0.0
-----
### New features
