There was a last-minute typo, detected by MD-SAL unit tests, which necessitated an 8.0.1:
Bug
[YANGTOOLS-1406] - BaseDecimalType is missing boundaries for fraction-digits=18
The poster child of a feature for this release is YANG parser memory footprint improvements, which have been in development for the past 18 months. This amounts in ~5x reduction, depending on model complexity. As an example: retained heap memory for Junos 19.3 is around 87MiB, where yangtools-7.0.0 used 481MiB -- which is a factor 5.3 improvement.
YANG parser now validates whether the components of 'unique' statement argument are valid references and rejects models which have these in disarray.
We also validate import-by-revision compliance as per RFC7950, which specifically forbids:
- mismatch of yang-version between a module and its submodules
- import-by-revision of a YANG 1.1 into a YANG 1 module (or submodule)
Finally, in yang-data-api we are now using dedicated yang.common.Decimal64 type (instead of java.math.BigDecimal). This improves storage of leaves carrying this type (which are few and far between) and, more importantly, enforces correct values with respect to declared 'fraction-digits' statement.
Enjoy,
Robert
