Changelog for overloaded-records-0.4.0.0

ChangeLog / ReleaseNotes

Renamed SetField type class to ModifyField, it now contains following methods (breaking change):
- modifyField :: Proxy# l -> (a -> b) -> s -> t
- setField :: Proxy# l -> s -> b -> t
- fieldLens :: Functor f => Proxy# l -> (a -> f b) -> s -> f t
Instances for tuples (i.e. (a, b), (a, b, c), ...) and lists (i.e. [a]). (new)
Definitions from Data.OverloadedRecords.TH were moved to Data.OverloadedRecords.TH.Internal, so that API can be split in to stable and unstable (internal) API. (change)
Aliases HasField' and ModifyField' that enforce s = t and a = b. This is similar to definitions like Lens'. Simplified versions of methods and functions are included using the same naming convention. (new)
Setter and Setter' changed to type aliases for Modifier type. (breaking change)
Introducing Setting type alias for Modifier along with setting, which is an alternative to set operation. (new)
- setting :: Setting a s t b -> Proxy a -> b -> s -> t
Changed order of arguments of functions set and set' (breaking change):
- set :: Setter s t b -> b -> s -> t
- set' :: Setter' s a -> a -> s -> s
Introduced type family R that can be used to define more compact type signatures when mentioning multiple record fields in it. (new)

Fixed defaultMakeFieldName, which actually behaved correctly only in very few cases. (bug fix)
Added missing HAVE_OVERLOADED_LABELS macro, that actually allows us to use GHC's IsLabel on GHC >8. (bug fix)
Exposing previously hidden FromArrow and IsFieldAccessor. (change)
Few simple unit tests. (new)

Function overloadedRecords renamed to overloadedRecord. There is also new overloadedRecords function, that behaves as overloadedRecord, but for multiple types at once. (breaking change)
It is now possible to customize overloadedRecord* family of functions with custom getter and setter implementation. (new)
Types and functions follow, hopefully, better naming conventions. (change)
More low-level template haskell functions for those cases when it is necessary to build your own higher-level ones, or when you need much more control over the result. (new)
