This change is make things clearer for + people new to the library. + + * Add new `.from_short_name()` library method for fast keyword lookups. + * DEVELOPERS: Internal code cleanup and better comments. + * DEVELOPERS: Add benchmark suite for comparing method implementation time + across versions of this library. + ## 0.1.0 (3 May 2014) * Add support for Unicode variant encodings, used by MacOSX 10.9 / iOS 7. - For more info: http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2011/11438-emoji-var.pdf - - By default, `EmojiChar.to_s()` and `.char()` will now use the variant encoding. - * With adding support for variants, the speed of `find_by_str` regressed by approximately 20% (because there are more codepoints to match against). To counter this, we switched to a Regex based scan than improves performance of the method by over 250x(!). A complete sorted search against 1000 strings now takes ~2ms where before it would take around a half second. + - By default, `EmojiChar.to_s()` and `.char()` will now use the variant + encoding. + * With adding support for variants, the speed of `find_by_str` regressed by + approximately 20% (because there are more codepoints to match against).

I'll look at nested hashmaps for those if there is a pressing performance need later. + This is only for lookup by unified ID for now, since the other `find_by_*()` + methods are actually searches that can return multiple values.
