0.17 breaking changes #1064

Closed mkitti closed 11 months ago

mkitti commented 1 year ago

This is an issue to document planned breaking changes for 0.17

mkitti commented 1 year ago

See https://github.com/JuliaIO/HDF5.jl/milestone/2

mkitti commented 1 year ago

0.17 will drop support for Julia 1.3 and older, moving to Julia 1.6 compat.

ranocha commented 1 year ago

Any plans for this release?

mkitti commented 1 year ago

I'm letting the dust settle from the 0.16.15 release and the 1.14.0 HDF5_jll release. I'll probably start merging in the pull requests this week though.

mkitti commented 1 year ago

@ranocha , what kind of timeline would you like to see?

ranocha commented 1 year ago

The JLL overhaul was planned to happen before we continue working on the PRs linked above. As far as I know, the new JLLs should be in use now, aren't they? Is there anything else you would like to do before we can continue working on the two PRs and merge them to prepare the breaking release?

mkitti commented 1 year ago

I am ready to start breaking things.

@simonbyrne @musm anything else need to be done before moving to 0.17?

simonbyrne commented 1 year ago

Nothing from me. Lets do it.

mkitti commented 1 year ago

For v0.16 branch, I think we should keep using Requires.jl only. For v0.17 should go all in on package extensions.

ranocha commented 1 year ago

So you would restrict v0.17 to Julia v1.9 and newer, excluding the LTS?

mkitti commented 1 year ago

I'm considering it, but let's see how difficult it is to backfill with Requires.jl. We also need to consider how to handle the filter packages such as H5Zstd.jl.

sloede commented 1 year ago

Is there an updated timeframe for v0.17? We are working on a C ↔️ Julia interaction project, and the Preferences-based custom library selection of #1061 would really help with that.

mkitti commented 1 year ago

Does the current master branch work for you?

ranocha commented 1 year ago

Does the current master branch work for you?

@sloede?

mkitti commented 1 year ago

I would like to get some more things in with the breaking change. My target is a week after JuliaCon

sloede commented 1 year ago

Does the current master branch work for you?

I am sorry, but I have been completely swamped and not gotten around to testing it properly. A first smoke test was positive, but it is nothing that I would consider a real-world test, and I likely won't get around to it before August either :-/

simonbyrne commented 1 year ago

Do you think we can make a new release soon?

mkitti commented 1 year ago

Yea, it's on my to do list. I actually just flew into Columbus, Ohio for the HDF User Group meeting so this is the perfect place to work on this.

JoshuaLampert commented 1 year ago

From our side everything works with master and v1.17 can be released.

mkitti commented 11 months ago

@musm @simonbyrne anything else to do for 0.17?

mkitti commented 11 months ago

I think we are about ready to release 0.17.

mkitti commented 11 months ago

0.17 has been registered.

Thing to kick over to 0.18:
