Changed

• Burst compatibility tests now treat any explicit uses of [BurstCompatible] on private methods as an error (as opposed to silently ignoring) to avoid giving the impression that private methods are being tested.

Security

[0.17.0] - 2021-03-15

Added

• [NotBurstCompatible] attribute to FixedStringN constructors that use a String argument.
• [NotBurstCompatible] attribute to NativeQueue constructor.
• UnsafeList<T>.Create and UnsafeList<T>.Destroy API.
• BurstCompatibilityTests now has a constructor that accepts multiple assembly names to verify Burst compatibility. This allows one test to verify multiple assemblies and can dramatically reduce CI times by avoiding costly setup overhead.
• UnsafePtrList<T> to replace deprecated untyped UnsafePtrList.
• Burst compatibility tests now also write the generated code to the Temp directory in order to make it easier to inspect.
• FixedList*.RemoveRange* with index/count arguments.
• FixedString parsing to type uint

Deprecated

• untyped UnsafePtrList, and added UnsafePtrList<T> as replacement.
• FixedList*.RemoveRange*WithBeginEnd methods with begin/end arguments in favor of FixedList*.RemoveRange* with index/count arguments.

Removed

• Removed single arg FixedString*.Format extension methods, use Clear() followed by Append().
• CollectionsBurstTests has been removed and placed into the Entities test project.

Fixed

• *BitArray.Clear when clearing with very short bit arrays.
• NativeQueue.AsParallelWriter doesn't need to be cached when chaining jobs. Removed unnecessary safety handle that was preventing calling NativeQueue.AsParallelWriter() multiple times when scheduling jobs.

[0.16.0] - 2021-01-26

Deprecated

• Sort methods that return a JobHandle deprecated in favor of new SortJob methods that return a job struct. Less conveniently, the user is responsible for calling Schedule on the struct, but this pattern better accommodates scheduling generic jobs from Bursted code (See https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.entities@latest/index.html?subfolder=/manual/ecs_generic_jobs.html).

Removed

• Removed deprecated FixedListN.IndexOf and SortJob variants

Fixed

• An ENABLE_UNITY_COLLECTIONS_CHECKS define was misspelled. Now Memory is checked for reasonable byte length when enabled.
• Many methods that use IJob were marked as [NotBurstCompatible] to reflect their true Burst compatibility.

Changed

• Updated com.unity.burst to 1.4.4

[0.15.0] - 2020-11-13

Added

• [BurstCompatible] attribute to UnsafeUtilityExtensions.
• [BurstCompatible] attribute to VMRange, Baselib_ErrorState, and VirtualMemoryUtility.
• [BurstCompatible] attribute to xxHash3.

Changed

• Update burst to 1.4.1.

• Update minimum editor version to 2020.1.2f1

Fixed

• Code generation for indexers in structs with [BurstCompatible] attribute.
• *BitArray search for empty bits when number of bits is less than 7 and backing storage is fragmented with 0x81 bit pattern.

• using FixedList.ToNativeArray with collection checks enabled used to throw a null reference exception.

[0.14.0] - 2020-09-24

Added

• *UnsafeBitArray.Find with pos/count search range arguments.

Changed

• UnsafeStream block allocation performance has been improved by ~16% by appending to the start of the per-thread block lists rather than the end.

Removed

• FixedList*.InsertRange, FixedList*.RemoveRangeSwapBack, FixedList*.RemoveRange, NativeString*, NativeList.RemoveRangeSwapBack, NativeList.RemoveRange, UnsafeList.RemoveRangeSwapBack, UnsafeList.RemoveRange, FixedString*.Format, FixedString*.AppendFrom, NativeHashSet.TryAdd, UnsafeHashSet.TryAdd.
• [NativeContainerSupportsDeallocateOnJobCompletion] attribute from NativeReference container. It didn't work properly. Users can use Dispose(JobHandle) method instead.

Fixed

• FixedList<T> Remove and RemoveSwapBack extension methods were modifying copy, fixed by passing this by reference to modify actual container.

[0.13.0] - 2020-08-26

Added

Removed

• Removed: UnsafeUtilityEx, Unity.Collections.Experimental*,FixedString*.UTF8LengthInBytes, and *Stream.ComputeItemCount()

Fixed

• Fixed performance regression of *HashMap.Count() introduced in Collections 0.10.0.

[0.12.0] - 2020-08-04

Added

• Added Sort method with custom comparer to FixedList* and UnsafeList<T>.
• Added IsEmpty property and Clear method to INativeList intefrace.
• Added INativeDisposable interface which provides a mechanism for scheduling release of unmanaged resources.
• Added InsertRangeWithBeginEnd to NativeList, UnsafeList, UnsafeList<T>, and UnsafePtrList.
• Added AddRange and AddRangeNoResize to FixedList*.
• Added properties to BaselibErrorState to check if an operation resulted in success, out of memory, or accessing an invalid address range.
• Added HeapString type, for arbitrary-length (up to 2GB) heap-allocated strings compatible with the FixedString* methods. Allocating a HeapString requires specifying an allocator and disposing appropriately.

Deprecated

• Deprecated FixedList* method IndexOf with index and index/count arguments.

Removed

• Removed: IJobNativeMultiHashMapMergedSharedKeyIndices JobNativeMultiHashMapUniqueHashExtensions IJobNativeMultiHashMapVisitKeyValue JobNativeMultiHashMapVisitKeyValue IJobNativeMultiHashMapVisitKeyMutableValue JobNativeMultiHashMapVisitKeyMutableValue IJobUnsafeMultiHashMapMergedSharedKeyIndices JobUnsafeMultiHashMapUniqueHashExtensions IJobUnsafeMultiHashMapVisitKeyValue JobUnsafeMultiHashMapVisitKeyValue IJobUnsafeMultiHashMapVisitKeyMutableValue JobUnsafeMultiHashMapVisitKeyMutableValue

Fixed

• Fixed *HashMap.IsEmpty when items are added and removed from *HashMap. IsEmpty previously used allocated count only to report emptiness, but returning not-empty didn't actually meant that *HashMap is not empty.
• Fixed bug where *HashSet.Enumerator.Current would always return the default value instead of the actual value from the set.
• Fixed bug with *HashMap/Set.Enumerator returning wrong index and dereferencing out of bounds memory.

[0.11.0] - 2020-07-10

Added

• Added VirtualMemoryUtility providing low-level virtual memory utility functions backed by baselib.
• *HashMap and *HashSet now implement IEnumerable<>.
• ReadArrayElementBoundsChecked and WriteArrayElementBoundsChecked for ease of debugging ReadArrayElement and WriteArrayElement without sacrificing performance by adding bounds checking directly to those functions.
• Added InsertRangeWithBeginEnd, RemoveRangeSwapBackWithBeginEnd, and RemoveRangeWithBeginEnd to list containers. *WithBeginEnd in name signifies that arguments are begin/end instead of more standard index/count. Once InsertRange, RemoveRangeSwapBack, and RemoveRange are completely deprecated and removed, those methods will be added with correct index/count arguments.
• Added xxHash3 type to expose 64/128bits hashing API using xxHash3 algorithm (corresponding to the C++ version https://github.com/Cyan4973/xxHash/releases/tag/v0.8.0)

Changed

• Updated minimum Unity Editor version to 2020.1.0b15 (40d9420e7de8)
• Bumped burst to 1.3.2 version.
• Changed *HashSet.Add API to return bool when adding element to set.
• UnsafeUtilityExtensions is now public.
• NativeReference methods Equals and GetHashCode will now operate on the value instead of the data pointer.
• FixedString{32,64,128,512,4096} have been reworked.
  • Functionality is shared via generics as much as possible. The API attempts to follow StringBuilder semantics.
  • Append methods now consistently append.
  • Append variant to append a char was added (appends the char, does not resolve to int overload).
  • Format methods that replaced the contents of the target have been deprecated. Use Clear() followed by Append(). Because FixedStrings start out cleared, in most cases just an Append is sufficient.
  • Format that takes a format string has been renamed to AppendFormat. The static FixedString.Format methods still exist for convenience, and return a FixedString128.
  • It is possible for users to extend the Append family of methods to support appending their own types. See FixedStringAppendMethods.cs for examples of how to declare your own extension methods.

Deprecated

• Deprecated *HashSet.TryAdd. *HashSet.Add is equivalent.
• Deprecated NativeString*. The functionality is replaced by FixedString*.
• Deprecated InsertRange, RemoveRangeSwap, and RemoveRange from list containers, and added InsertRangeWithBeginEnd, RemoveRangeSwapBackWithBeginEnd, and RemoveRangeWithBeginEnd. *WithBeginEnd in name signifies that arguments are begin/end instead of more standard index/count. Once InsertRange, RemoveRangeSwapBack, and RemoveRange are completely deprecated and removed, those methods will be added with correct index/count arguments.

Removed

• Removed System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe.dll from package.

Known Issues

• This version is not compatible with 2020.2.0a17. Please update to the forthcoming alpha.

All containers allocated with Allocator.Temp on the same thread use a shared AtomicSafetyHandle instance. This is problematic when using NativeHashMap, NativeMultiHashMap, NativeHashSet and NativeList together in situations where their secondary safety handle is used. This means that operations that invalidate an enumerator for either of these collections (or the NativeArray returned by NativeList.AsArray) will also invalidate all other previously acquired enumerators. For example, this will throw when safety checks are enabled:

var list = new NativeList<int>(Allocator.Temp);
list.Add(1);

// This array uses the secondary safety handle of the list, which is
// shared between all Allocator.Temp allocations.
var array = list.AsArray();

var list2 = new NativeHashSet<int>(Allocator.Temp);

// This invalidates the secondary safety handle, which is also used
// by the list above.
list2.TryAdd(1);

// This throws an InvalidOperationException because the shared safety
// handle was invalidated.
var x = array[0];

This defect will be addressed in a future release.

[0.10.0] - 2020-05-27

Added

• Added Native/UnsafeHashSet containers.
