regex v1.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-09-03 // over 4 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ This release adds a plethora of new crate features that permit users of regex to shrink its size considerably, in exchange for giving up either functionality ๐ŸŽ (such as Unicode support) or runtime performance. When all such features are disabled, the dependency tree for regex shrinks to exactly 1 crate (regex-syntax). More information about the new crate features can be ๐Ÿ“„ found in the docs.

    ๐Ÿš€ Note that while this is a new minor version release, the minimum supported Rust version for this crate remains at 1.28.0.

    ๐Ÿ†• New features:

    • FEATURE #474: The use_std feature has been deprecated in favor of the std feature. The use_std feature will be removed in regex 2. Until then, use_std will remain as an alias for the std feature.
    • FEATURE #583: Add a substantial number of crate features shrinking regex.
