The main goal of this release is to publish modernized C++ generator together with C++ runtime library which supports C++11 standard.

The following are main new features in C++11 generated code:

  • Scoped strongly typed enumerations
  • Field constructors using perfect forwarding
  • Move constructors
  • Move assignment operators
  • Zserio arrays mapped directly to STL vector
  • Zserio optional members mapped to zserio::OptionalHolder

For more information about generated C++11 code, please check Zserio C++ Quick Start Tutorial.

The old C++ generator is still supported and can be invoked using command line argument '-cppStandard c++98'. However, it's deprecated and can be removed anytime in the future.

The second goal of this release is to upgrade the grammar compiler ANTLR from version 2 to the newest version 4 which required a huge zserio core redesign.

The release contains several fixes as well.
