It isn't possible to convert
UIDPlusDatato useSequenceSetinternally, while still maintaining full backwards compatibility. So two new classes were added (AppendUIDDataandCopyUIDData). The intention is to removeUIDPlusDatainv0.6.0.AppendUIDDataandCopyUIDData:SequenceSetobjects (not arrays of integers)data.sizeto get the uid-set sizeCopyUIDData:uid_mapping => source_uid_to_assigned_uid_hash(This behaves identically to the existing
UIDPlusData#uid_mapping.)copyuid.assigned_uid_for(source_uid) => assigned_uidcopyuid[source_uid] => assigned_uidcopyuid.source_uid_for(assigned_uid) => source_uidcopyuid.each_uid_pair(aliases:each_pair,each)Although they are not perfectly compatible, upgrading from
UIDPlusDatatoCopyUIDDataandAppendUIDDatashould be relatively straightforward.This PR only adds the classes, but they are unused. For backward compatibility, a parser config option is needed in order to replace
UIDPlusDatawith them. That was split into a separate PR (mostly just to simplify the release notes generation):APPENDUID/COPYUID, 🗑️ Deprecate UIDPlusData #401
