TODO fmt: empty slices now print nothing with %x (bug fix) (https://golang.org/cl/8864)
|
||||
In the <a href="/pkg/fmt/"><code>fmt</code></a> package,
|
||||
empty slices now produce no output with the <code>%x</code> verb
|
||||
even when width is applied. For slices the modifiers apply elementwise but in 1.4 if the
|
||||
slice was empty, they applied globally, an inconsistency.
|
||||
For instance, in Go 1.4 an empty byte slice prints '0000' with verb "%04x"; in 1.5 it prints nothing.

adds a <a href="/pkg/io/#CopyBuffer"><code>CopyBuffer</code></a> function

The <a href="/pkg/log/"><code>log</code></a> package

has a new <a href="/pkg/log/#LUTC"><code>LUTC</code></a> flag
|

that causes time stamps to be printed in the UTC time zone.

It also adds a <a href="/pkg/log/#SetOutput"><code>SetOutput</code></a> function

In Go 1.4, <a href="/pkg/math/#Max"><code>Max</code></a> was not detecting all possible NaN bit patterns.

This is fixed in Go 1.5, so programs that use <code>math.Max</code> on data including NaNs may behave differently,

the Linux <code>SysProcAttr</code> struct now has a

by security changes in Linux 3.19.

On all Unix systems, the struct also has new <code>Foreground</code> and <code>Pgid</code> fields

handled when indexing a map.
