Binary lost functionality #1

Closed davean closed 11 years ago

davean commented 11 years ago

Version >= 0.6 lack both uncheckedSkip and lookAheadE.

ekmett commented 11 years ago

I spoke with Lennart Kolmodin, and he indicated a willingness to reintroduce lookAheadE. (I neglected to mention uncheckedSkip)

In the meantime I've released a version without this functionality and a raised upper bound.

bgamari commented 11 years ago

lookAheadE is once again present in binary 0.7.1. I don't believe the same thing can be said about uncheckedSkip

ekmett commented 11 years ago

I can live with the loss of uncheckedSkip, I suppose. Now it is just a matter of reverting (part of) the commit that lobotomized bytes to remove lookAheadM and lookAheadE.

ekmett commented 11 years ago

This should work now, insofar as binary has restored some functionality. Closing.
