Pub version 0.4.4+1 - Apr 8 2013 (integration SDK 0.4.4 r20690)

Pub version 0.4.0 - Feb 27 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• Performance improvements: cache HTML fragments and use .clone in templates
• BREAKING CHANGE: removed deprecated attributes (data-value, data-action, data-bind). Detailed announcement at [e-mail].
• New flags in dwc to specify package root and disable rewrites of urls (for deployment)
• Bug fixes: using @observables in component files with external sources indentation="remove" on template elements to remove any indentation spaces, use indentation="preserve" to switch back to the original behavior.

Pub version 0.3.3+4 - Feb 25 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• Changes to the trim-indentation feature: use indentation="remove" on template elements to remove any indentation spaces, use indentation="preserve" to switch back to the original behavior.

Pub version 0.3.3+3 - Feb 22 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• Backward compatible changes needed to make web-ui run correctly in the newer SDK (0.4.0)

Pub version 0.3.3+2 - Feb 19 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• Minor cleanup

Pub version 0.3.3+1 - Feb 19 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• Bug fixes on observables: tracing dependencies correctly.

Pub version 0.3.3 - Feb 19 2013 (integration SDK 0.3.7+5 r18669)

• New features:
  • Observables: a scalable and efficient replacement for watchers. Watchers dirty checks to see if anything had changed. Observables track modifications directly. They are not on by default, you can switch by adding the @observable annotation on your model fields.
  • Source-maps in Dartium: enable source maps in the debugging options of Dartium, and see the web inspector step through your original code when you debug.
  • One-time final bindings: use '{{ binding | final }}' to initialize a value in your template when it is first rendered. This binding ignores any updates to the model afterwards.
  • Use spaces freely inside a component: indentation spaces (e.g. line breaks after a tag, or a binding) are ignored when adding the attribute 'trim-indentation-spaces' to the <template> tag on an element declaration.
  • experimental css processing (hidden under a flag)
• Bug fix: dwc avoids generating imports that duplicate existing imports from the user
• API changes: updates for the lastest changes in the SDK

Pub version 0.3.2 - Feb 5 2013 (integration SDK r18115)

• bug fix: allow 2 entry points to depend on a common component (we used to write files asynchronously and thus the two parallel compilation processes where corrupting each other's result).
• changes for the new SDK: API in dart:html changed for getComputedStyle (now it is sync)

Pub version 0.3.1+3 - Feb 1 2013 (integration SDK r17657)

• bug fixes in watchers library: watchers were being fired out of order at times (e.g. when template-conditionals are false, watchers of child nodes should not be fired, but they were). Another bug was making watchers being checked 10 times, instead of 1.
• better warnings when missing script type.

Pub version 0.3.1+2 - Jan 30 2013 (integration SDK r17657)

• Fix bug in previous version where it did not work with html5lib 0.3.1+2.

Pub version 0.3.1+1 - Jan 30 2013 (integration SDK r17657)

• Richer 'style' attributes. Deprecate 'data-style', functionality merged into 'style'.
• Support constant attributes when passing data to web components
• load 'dart.js' directly from the browser package (generated code works offline!)
• bug fix: warnings were not being printed.

Pub version 0.3.1 - Jan 28 2013 (integration SDK r17657)

• fixes for new release of the SDK
• bug fix: --full not required when using build.dart on a terminal

Pub version 0.3.0+2 - Jan 24 2013

• support for --full option in build.dart. This is used by the editor, but it broke the command-line use of build.dart, fixed in 0.3.1.
• bug fix: runtime exception in code used to send warnings to the editor.

Pub version 0.3.0+1 - Jan 23 2013

• fixes for changes in core libraries that were added after the pre-release of
• the new libraries.

Pub version 0.3.0 - Jan 22 2013

• Changes to use the new libraries (lib v2)
• More readable output: generated code is more compact and easy to correlate with source templates
• Making some declarations optional:
  • You can omit the script tag in the entry page, we will generate an empty one for you. NOTE: make sure you only put entrypoint html files in 'build.dart'. This change makes the compiler accept any html file (including files that only define components) and treat them as entrypoints. If you include a component's html file in build.dart, the compiler will generate additional files that you don't need.
  • Components with no 'extends' attribute extend from 'span' by default
• bug fixes:
  • remove extra whitespace incorrectly inserted in components
  • issue warning when a component definition can't be found.

Pub version 0.2.11 - Jan 07 2013 (integration SDK r16761)

Pub version 0.2.8+6 - Dec 10 (SDK 15595, integration SDK 15699)

• Bug fix:
  • No longer generates calls to Element constructors that don't exist (affected heading and strong elements, among others)

Pub version 0.2.8+5 - Dec 7 (SDK 15595, integration SDK 15699)

• Rename package to web_ui
• Change TodoMVC to have component with composition
• Bug fix:
  • fix component composition in Firefox (workaround dart:html matchesSelector)

• Upgrades for new trunk release (mainly breaking changes in dart:html)

Pub version 0.2.8+2 - Nov 30 (trunk SDK 15355)

• Bug fix:
  • hosted and sdk dependencies errors due to changes in html5lib.
  • URI attributes are now checked for XSS: use SafeUri if validation is too strict.

  • you can use attribute="{{}}" and bind-attribute="x" to initialize, update, and bind fields of components (exposed as attributes in the HTML tag).

• Conditional templates:

  • Added new experimental syntax <template if="exp">.

• Bug fixes:

  • Make dartium extension use the latest dart.js
  • html fragments: fix issues with text nodes mixed with elements
  • Internally data bindings watch the result of 'toString()', so types implementing toString (like Maps or StringBuffer) can be used directly in templates.
  • Most generated identifiers are now hidden: all identifiers generated for html elements in the template are hidden, except '_root'. Root will be hidden in the future.

Pub version 0.2.7 - Nov 26 (SDK 15355)
