Features/Changes

• Compiler: add mechanism to deprecate runtime promitives
• Runtime: re-introduce caml_new_string, marked as deprecated

5.9.0

CHANGES:

Features/Changes

• Misc: update testsuite to OCaml 5.2
• Misc: CI uses opam.2.2 and no longer use sunset repo
• Misc: yojson is no longer optional
• Misc: reduce the diff with the wasm_of_ocaml fork
• Misc: finalize support for OCaml 5.3
• Compiler: speedup global_flow/global_deadcode pass on large bytecode
• Compiler: improved global dead code elimination (#2206)
• Compiler: speedup json parsing, relying on Yojson.Raw (#1640)
• Compiler: Decode sourcemap mappings only when necessary (#1664)
• Compiler: mark [TextEncoder] as reserved
• Compiler: add support for the Wasm backend in parts of the pipeline, in
  prevision for the merge of wasm_of_ocaml
• Compiler: introduce a Targetint module
  that follows the semantic of the backend (js or wasm)

• Compiler: fix variable renaming for property binding and assignment target (part 2)

5.8.1

CHANGES:

Features/Changes

• Library: new Typed_array.Bytes module.

Bug fixes

• Compiler: fix #1509

5.8.0

CHANGES:

Features/Changes

• Compiler: es6 now generate consise body
