This release fixes a security issue in the Decodable implementation of FilePath.

What's Fixed

• This release fixes FilePath decoding. Internal invariants of FilePath are now enforced in the initializer used by the Decodable protocol, FilePath.init(from:).

• @stephentyrone made their first contribution in https://github.com/apple/swift-system/pull/189, cherry-picked here.

This release addresses build issues

What's Fixed

• String.init(platformString:) is now a disfavored overload, in order to work around a Swift language issue.
• Exclude CMakeLists.txt files from consideration by the Swift package manager.

1.3.0 release

This release primarily addresses a number of platform support issues.

What's New

• Support for visionOS
• Support for musl libc

What's Changed

• swift-system now requires Swift 5.8
• The Collection conformance of the SystemString has been improved. This makes it compatible with the Swift 6.0 standard library, in which Array's replaceSubrange() has become stricter about the correctness of the Collection types it handles.
• The cmake configuration now understands more spellings for Arm64, improving compatibility with Windows compilers.
• Adapted two syscall wrappers to support unusual nullability annotations in Android's NDK 26. The package needs this to build against recent NDKs.

Official 1.0 release!

System is already source and binary stable (at least on Darwin), so in practice this doesn't change much about System's development or guarantees (1.0.0 is effectively the same as 0.0.3). But, it does formalize the source stability guarantee for clients of the package.

Contains bug fixes for Windows, and minor fixes for SystemChar.

• FilePath Syntactic Operations
  • decompose a path, analyze a path, components view, mutate a path, etc
• Standard file descriptors
  • static FileDescriptor.standardInput, FileDescriptor.standardOutput, FileDescriptor.standardError
• dup/dup2
  • FileDescriptor.duplicate, with optional as target.
