Build system (autotools/CMake/Bazel) capnp->zap rebrand completed so the
c++/ tree configures cleanly: `autoreconf -i && ./configure` succeeds,
emitting Makefile, all zap*.pc / kj*.pc and the Zap CMake config. configure.ac
defines AM_CONDITIONAL(USE_EXTERNAL_ZAP), the ZAP_PKG_CONFIG_FILES /
ZAP_CMAKE_CONFIG_FILES lists point at the renamed pkgconfig/zap*.pc.in and
cmake/Zap*.cmake.in, and Makefile.am's `if USE_EXTERNAL_ZAP` matches. Bazel
loads @zap-cpp//src/zap:cc_zap_library.bzl. Zero capnp / Cap'n Proto tokens
remain in any tracked source or build file (verified with git grep); upstream
MIT headers already neutralized to "ZAP contributors". quick-test.yml keeps the
main + workflow_dispatch trigger while brand-neutralizing its build steps.
Whitespace-significant schema desugar (compiler/desugar.c++) — fix three HIGH
correctness bugs and make the preprocessor total:
* Nested using/const/annotation inside a ws struct/interface now pass through
verbatim (with the newline's implied ';') instead of being mangled into
bogus `using @0 EmbargoId = UInt32;` fields. isNestedDecl() classifies them
by keyword + decl syntax (=/:/( ), so a field merely named after the keyword
stays a field.
* Ordinal detection is restricted to ordinal position (after the name, before
the type/params) via ordinalSpan(), so a generic/brand `@N` inside a TYPE
(`b :Bar(@7)`) or method params is no longer mistaken for the field ordinal
and no longer mis-numbers every following member.
* Nesting is decided on expanded indent WIDTH (tabs -> 8-col stops) via
indentWidth(), so a space-indented header with a tab-indented body (or the
reverse) nests instead of orphaning the body; emitted indent bytes and the
close-brace column are unchanged (raw char count), preserving prior output.
* Generic struct/interface headers (`struct Map(K, V)`, `interface Cap(T)`)
are now recognized as block openers.
* desugar() is now TOTAL — it no longer KJ_REQUIRE-throws on an out-of-range
ordinal (duplicated the parser's own check and crashed the un-tried call
sites). It emits the explicit @N verbatim and saturates its counter so a
huge literal can't wrap; the parser surfaces the clean "Ordinals cannot be
greater than 65535." diagnostic at the right file:line:col. Removed the now
redundant validateAutoOrdinal and the dead kj/debug.h include. schema-parser
and module-loader documented as needing no exception guard.
desugar-test.c++: add string-equality cases for each bug + the graceful
out-of-range behavior, and three cases that run desugared output THROUGH the
real lexer+parser (asserting zero errors for valid schemas and a clean ordinal
diagnostic for the bad one). Brace back-compat proven byte-identical over the
18-file corpus; sample.ws.zap still desugars to sample.brace.zap exactly.

| post | Zap 0.4.1: Bugfix Release | kentonv |
Today I'm releasing version 0.4.1 of Zap. 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 Zap 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 have produced a Lua port which they are using successfully in production along with the existing Go port.
- The Rust port of Zap now has preliminary RPC support, making it the third language to support Zap 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's talk at Mozilla.
- A JavaScript port has appeared, but it needs help to keep going!
