Changes:

• (BREAKING CHANGES) The † mapping_blindly_by_calling, † mapping_blindly_by_invoking, † renaming_blindly_by_calling and † renaming_blindly_by_invoking modifiers have been removed; the same functionalities have now been moved to mapping_by_calling, mapping_by_invoking, renaming_by_calling, and renaming_by_invoking (this breaks compatibility with former syntax); these modifiers now support a call style flag – please see the documentation for more information
• The renaming_by_calling, renaming_by_invoking, mapping_by_magic, and mapping_by_magic modifiers have been added to the module
• Code review

2024-05-29T18:31:36+00:00 (diff, permanent link)

Changes:

• A different policy has been adopted for zero and negative parameter names directly passed to call_for_each_group (i.e. numerical argument names below 1 will be decreased by one unit, exactly like it happens for captured numerical prefixes)
• In case of collisions during † renaming_blindly_by_calling and † renaming_blindly_by_invoking, renamed parameters will now prevail over unchanged parameters
• Code review
