can update by running:
hg pull
hg update weekly
This weekly snapshot includes changes to the image, path/filepath, and time
packages. Code that uses these packages may need to be updated.
The image package's NewX functions (NewRGBA, NewNRGBA, etc) have been changed
to take a Rectangle argument instead of a width and height.
Gofix can make these changes automatically.
The path/filepath package's Walk function has been changed to take a WalkFunc
function value instead of a Visitor interface value. WalkFunc is like the
Visitor's VisitDir and VisitFile methods except it handles both files and
directories:
func(path string, info *os.FileInfo, err os.Error) os.Error
To skip walking a directory (like returning false from VisitDir) the WalkFunc
must return SkipDir.
The time package's Time struct's Weekday field has been changed to a method.
The value is calculated on demand, avoiding the need to re-parse
programmatically-constructed Time values to find the correct weekday.
There are no gofixes for the filepath or time API changes, but instances of the
old APIs will be caught by the compiler. The Weekday one is easy to update by
hand. The Walk one may take more consideration, but will have fewer instances
to fix.
