# Changelog for [`filepath` package](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/filepath) _Note: below all `FilePath` values are unquoted, so `\\` really means two backslashes._ ## 2.0.0.0 ???? Implementation of the [Abstract FilePath Proposal](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/proposal/abstract-file-path) in user-space as a separate type. ## 1.4.2.2 *Dec 2021* This release is purely a documentation release, fixing the broken haddock links. ### Affected users This release affects users who apply downstream patches to `System.FilePath.Internal`, since `System.FilePath.Posix` and `System.FilePath.Windows` are now generated via `make cpp` during development. To make your patch apply, either apply it to `System.FilePath.Posix` and `System.FilePath.Windows` instead or run `make cpp` after applying your patch. ### Changes * Document relation between `joinPath` and `()` wrt [#82](https://github.com/haskell/filepath/issues/82), [#82](https://github.com/haskell/filepath/issues/86) * Clarify that `normalise` does not remove `..` wrt [#86](https://github.com/haskell/filepath/issues/86) * Make clear that `equalFilePath` does not expand `..` wrt [#87](https://github.com/haskell/filepath/issues/87) * Fix haddock source links by manually cpping wrt [#81](https://github.com/haskell/filepath/issues/81) * Make export list in `System.FilePath` explicit to get haddocks on the landing module ## 1.4.2.1 *Jul 2018* * Bundled with GHC 8.6.1 ## 1.4.2 *Jan 2018* * Bundled with GHC 8.4.1 * Add `isExtensionOf` function. ## 1.4.1.2 *Feb 2017* * Bundled with GHC 8.2.1 ## 1.4.1.1 *Nov 2016* * Bundled with GHC 8.0.2 * Documentation improvements ## 1.4.1.0 *Dec 2015* * Bundled with GHC 8.0.1 * Add `replaceExtensions` and `stripExtension` functions. * Make `isValid` detect more invalid Windows paths, e.g. `nul .txt` and `foo\nbar`. * Improve the documentation. * Bug fix: `isValid "\0"` now returns `False`, instead of `True` ## 1.4.0.0 *Mar 2015* * Bundled with GHC 7.10.1 * New function: Add `-<.>` as an alias for `replaceExtension`. * Semantic change: `joinDrive /foo bar` now returns `/foo/bar`, instead of `/foobar` * Semantic change: on Windows, `splitSearchPath File1;\"File 2\"` now returns `[File1,File2]` instead of `[File1,\"File2\"]` * Bug fix: on Posix systems, `normalise //home` now returns `/home`, instead of `//home` * Bug fix: `normalise /./` now returns `/` on Posix and `\` on Windows, instead of `//` and `\\` * Bug fix: `isDrive ""` now returns `False`, instead of `True` * Bug fix: on Windows, `dropTrailingPathSeparator /` now returns `/` unchanged, instead of the normalised `\` * Bug fix: on Windows, `equalFilePath C:\ C:` now returns `False`, instead of `True` * Bug fix: on Windows, `isValid \\\foo` now returns `False`, instead of `True` * Bug fix: on Windows, `isValid \\?\D:file` now returns `False`, instead of `True` * Bug fix: on Windows, `normalise \` now returns `\` unchanged, instead of `\\` * Bug fix: on Windows, `normalise C:.\` now returns `C:`, instead of `C:\\` * Bug fix: on Windows, `normalise //server/test` now returns `\\server\test`, instead of `//server/test` unchanged * Bug fix: on Windows, `makeRelative / //` now returns `//`, instead of `""` ## 1.3.0.2 *Mar 2014* * Bundled with GHC 7.8.1 * Update to Cabal 1.10 format * Minor Haddock cleanups ## 1.3.0.1 *Sep 2012* * Bundled with GHC 7.6.1 * No changes ## 1.3.0.0 *Feb 2012* * Bundled with GHC 7.4.1 * Add support for SafeHaskell * Bug fix: `normalise /` now returns `/`, instead of `/.`
