Unreleased

0.1.1 - 2025-07-23

Semi-incompatible behavior changes

• Fail on invalid numeric values instead of relying on the unspecified behavior of the atoi() function from the standard C library that, in most cases, treats them as 0

Fixes

• Add two #include directives to make mapec.c compile in a POSIX environment
• Report errors to the standard error stream, not the standard output one
• Correctly report the name of the program in an error message
• Add a missing exit in an error-handling path
• Fix a check for the number of the command-line arguments

Additions

• Add SPDX copyright and license tags
• Add a Makefile build infrastructure
• Add a simple TAP-based test suite
• Add a single supported command-line option, --features
• Add a simple Rust implementation of mapec
• Add some basic MkDocs-based documentation

Other changes

• Mark the two internal functions as static
• Since the C source already used C99 features, also simplify some code paths by using single-assignment variables marked as const
• Use waitpid() instead of wait(), add error checking
