Description Anton Kochkov 2020-03-25 03:11:02 UTC

Latest stable version in 1.x series is 1.4.0 now:

https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/releases/tag/v1.4.0

New language features

    Structs with all isbits and isbitsunion fields are now stored inline in arrays (#32448).
    import now allows quoted symbols, e.g. import Base.:+ (#33158).
    a[begin] can now be used to address the first element of an integer-indexed collection a. The index is computed by firstindex(a) (#33946).

Language changes

    The syntax (;), which used to parse as an empty block expression, is deprecated. In the future it will indicate an empty named tuple (#30115).

Multi-threading changes

    Values can now be interpolated into @async and @spawn via $, which copies the value directly into the constructed underlying closure (#33119).

Build system changes

    Windows build installer has switched to Inno Setup. Installer command line parameters have thus changed. For example, to extract the installer to a specific directory, the command line parameter is now /DIR=x:\dirname. Use julia-installer.exe /? to list all new command line parameters.
