Package Flags

Use the -f option with cabal commands to enable flags

    developer (off by default)

    operate in developer mode

    simdutf (on by default)

    use simdutf library, causes Data.Text.Internal.Validate.Simd to be exposed

    pure-haskell (off by default)

    Don't use text's standard C routines NB: This feature is not fully implemented. Several C routines are still in use. When this flag is true, text will use pure Haskell variants of the routines. This is not recommended except for use with GHC's JavaScript backend. This flag also disables simdutf.

    extendedbenchmarks (off by default)

    Runs extra benchmarks which can be very slow.

Authors

The base code for this library was originally written by Tom Harper, based on the stream fusion framework developed by Roman Leshchinskiy, Duncan Coutts, and Don Stewart.

The core library was fleshed out, debugged, and tested by Bryan O'Sullivan. Transition from UTF-16 to UTF-8 is by Andrew Lelechenko.
