This Month in Mun - May 2021

June 08, 2021, The Mun Team

The core team has been working on new features for Mun v0.4. The biggest feature will be dynamically sized arrays.

Mun v0.4

Mun v0.4 will be the next release of the Mun programming language. This months contributions from the core team include:

  • [RFC] dynamically sized arrays [PR#324]

    The dynamically sized arrays RFC has been merged. This indicates that the core team has reached a consensus on the the language design details. Development of the feature is underway.

  • feat: derive clone for RootedStruct [PR#323]

    The Mun community pointed out that RootedStruct could not be cloned from Rust code. This has been resolved with this MR.

  • bump: rust to 1.51.0 and 1.52.0 [PR#327] & [PR#325]

    The entire Mun codebase has been updated to support the latest lints from Rust 1.51 and 1.52
