unicode-rs / unicode-xid Goto Github PK

Hello,

In WGSL (WebGPU Shading Language), the spec requires Unicode 14.0 for XID ranges, and it would be great to have a release to be spec-compliant since 14.0 data is already in this repository, just not up in the Crates.

Thank you!

rustc_unicode recently added support for Pattern_White_Space in rust-lang/rust@24578e0. Syntex needs this support somewhere, and @kwantam mentioned that unicode-xid might be the right place for this functionality.

The no_std feature has no effect, because #![no_std] is unconditionally enabled (as it should be, since this crate has no reliance on std). It seems like this became the case in 02cc96c.

It should be removed or deprecated (probably deprecated, to avoid the breaking change), and the docs should reflect that #![no_std] is always enabled.

I am interested in the difference between 0.0.4 and 0.1.0.

The convention in Rust is to not capitalise initialisms beyond the first letter.

Breakage could be mitigated by exporting the trait twice and deprecating the all-caps version.

Hello @Manishearth could you publish version 0.2.5 to crates.io?
Thanks!

Usually, one does not want to check individual characters, but strings as a whole. Since this results in repeating the same boilerplate over and over, how about providing a direct mechanism on &str for this purpose? I'm thinking of three methods: starts_with_xid_start, is_xid_continue, is_xid_ident. I'm fine with them being either standalone methods or trait extensions to str.

No stable version has been released for a long time since 0.1.0, Is there some other feature you are waiting for that is planned for 0.2.0, or can it just be released?

crates.io links to https://unicode-rs.github.io/unicode-xid/unicode_xid/index.html, which suggests adding unicode-xid = "0.0.4" to the Cargo.toml
