This isn't really the proper thing to do as if we add symbols in later versions (with the same abi) they will get the same symbols version, but our .symbols file will protect us from the problems arising from this as it will ensure that a package acutally depends on a version of the abi high enough to include the symbol. 2015-08-10T15:27:59Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-08-09T18:26:37Z urn:sha1:628e7405052dd5b758ad1480a103971b3ea34c4b cxx11abi transition happens, we changed a bunch of methods and all that stuff which is really good™ for an abi. Lets just slowly start to stop changing more and a first step is to document the current so changes aren't hidding in a big wall of change anymore.

The "hard" part is keeping the abi for the inlined methods so that they don't break – at least not more than before as much of the point beside a speedup is support for more than 256 fields in a single section. 2014-11-08T13:29:25Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-11-07T17:18:14Z urn:sha1:fa5404ab01bdf06eaf147d9f133139e6c89b906a Adding a new parameter (with a default) is an ABI break, but you can overload a method, which is "just" an API break for everyone doing references to this method (aka: nobody).

Marking them as hidden to not export them any longer is a big API break in theory, but in practice nobody is using them – as if they would its a bug. 2014-11-08T13:26:00Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-11-06T11:53:59Z urn:sha1:f105aaba433f5a8b9c4326dd0d704501bf07d1e5 We can't add a new virtual method without breaking the ABI, but we can freely add new methods, so for older ABIs we just implement this method with a dynamic_cast, so that clients can be more ignorant about the API here and especially don't need to pull a very dirty trick by assuming internal knowledge (like apt-get did here). 2014-11-06T08:42:18Z Michael Vogt mvo@ubuntu.com 2014-11-06T08:42:18Z urn:sha1:73a3c4983d1ea75a9204aeb53ffcd6a6e5c1f367 Git-Dch: ignore 2014-11-05T16:55:01Z Michael Vogt mvo@ubuntu.com 2014-11-05T16:55:01Z urn:sha1:23e1a70b47329088a8f83bd94f5e774954c4c56a
