Today I'm releasing [version 0.4.1 of Cap'n Proto](https://capnproto.org/capnproto-c++-0.4.1.tar.gz).
|
||
|
|
As hinted by the version number, this is a bugfix and tweak release, with no big new features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You may be wondering: If there are no big new features, what has been happening over the
|
||
|
|
last three months? Most of my time lately has been spent laying the groundwork for an
|
||
|
|
interesting project built on Cap'n Proto which should launch by the end of this month.
|
||
|
|
Stay tuned! And don't worry -- this new project is going to need many of the upcoming
|
||
|
|
features on [the roadmap]({{ site.baseurl }}roadmap.html), so work on version 0.5 will be
|
||
|
|
proceeding soon.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the meantime, though, there have been some major updates from the community:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The folks at [CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/) have produced a
|
||
|
|
[Lua port](https://github.com/cloudflare/lua-capnproto) which they are
|
||
|
|
[using successfully in production](http://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-lua-capnproto-better-serialization-in-lua)
|
||
|
|
along with the existing [Go port](https://github.com/jmckaskill/go-capnproto).
|
||
|
|
* [The Rust port of Cap'n Proto](https://github.com/dwrensha/capnproto-rust) now has
|
||
|
|
preliminary RPC support, making it the third language to support Cap'n Proto RPC (after
|
||
|
|
C++ and Python), and the second language to implement it from the ground up (Python just
|
||
|
|
wraps the C++ implementation). Check out author [David Renshaw](https://github.com/dwrensha)'s
|
||
|
|
[talk at Mozilla](https://air.mozilla.org/rust-meetup-february-2014/).
|
||
|
|
* A [Javascript port](https://github.com/jscheid/capnproto-js) has appeared, but it needs help
|
||
|
|
to keep going!
