- The t_string type is now a schema built-in type and no longer attempts a regex match.
- You can also specify that non-t_string types may be optionally-translatable; this case supports a regex match on the string (but note that the translation mark is not part of the match).
- Error messages involving keys with very large values ( > 128 characters) will now truncate the value.
- To account for occasional cases where the schema is intentionally violated, the --validate command-line option now automatically defines the SCHEMA_VALIDATION preprocessor define.
A key validates as type t_string if one of the following is true:
- The key is not present
- The key has at least one segment with a translation mark
- The key is blank (an empty string)
Any type other than t_string is not allowed to be translatable by default, unless you specify allow_translatable=yes in the [type] tag.
An optionally-translatable string could also be defined as a union of t_string and some other type.
Currently this is disabled by default
Use --validate command-line argument to enable
The following new features were added in the schema format:
* Union, intersection, and list types
* Keys can specify a union of known types on-the-fly
* Key and tag names can include wildcards (* and ?, glob-style)
* Tags support any_key=yes, which means unrecognized subtags will be ignored
* Tags and keys support deprecated=yes (unimplemented)
* Specify max=infinite instead of max=-1
