Zserio v2.4.0-pre1
Pre-release
The main goal of this pre-release is to publish the following brand new features:
Rules provide a way how to organize semantic restrictions for the schema which cannot be easily defined using constraints.
Packed arrays compress all integer types, enumeration types and bitmask types using delta compression.
Please note that packed arrays are implemented in this pre-release only by Python extension. C++ and Java extensions still do not support packed arrays and they currently just ignore packed keyword (with warning) and treats packed arrays as unpacked. Thus, packed arrays written by Python API cannot be parsed by C++ or Java API.
This pre-release contains as well several bug fixes.
