CliFx v1.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-03-16 // about 4 years ago
    • ⚡️ Changed IConsole interface (and as a result, SystemConsole and VirtualConsole) to support writing binary data. Instead of TextReader/TextWriter instances, the streams are now exposed as StreamReader/StreamWriter which provide the BaseStream property that allows raw access. Existing usages inside commands should remain the same because StreamReader/StreamWriter are compatible with their base classes TextReader/TextWriter, but if you were using VirtualConsole in tests, you may have to update it to the new API. Refer to the readme for more info.
    • 🔄 Changed argument binding behavior so that an error is produced if the user provides an argument that doesn't match with any parameter or option. This is done in order to improve user experience, as otherwise the user may make a typo without knowing that their input wasn't taken into account.
    • 🔄 Changed argument binding behavior so that options can be set to multiple argument values while specifying them with mixed naming. For example, --option value1 -o value2 --option value3 would result in the option being set to corresponding three values, assuming --option and -o match with the same option.
