To use, pass --disable-reflection to the configure script. This produces a smaller runtime library. However, using it for this purpose is not recommended. The main purpose of lite mode is to define a subset of Cap'n Proto which might plausibly compile under MSVC. MSVC still lacks full support for constexpr and expression SFINAE; luckily, most of our use of these things relates to reflection, and not all users need reflection. Cap'n Proto lite mode inherits its name from Protocol Buffers' lite mode. However, there are some key differences: - Protobuf generated code included global constructors related to registering descriptors and extensions. For many people, this was the main reason to use lite mode: to get rid of these global constructors and achieve faster startup times. Cap'n Proto, on the other hand, never had global constructors in the first place. - Schemas are actually still available in lite mode, though only in their raw (Cap'n Proto structure) form. Only the schema API (which wraps the raw schemas in a more convenient interface) and reflection API (which offers a convenient way to use the schemas) are unavailable. - Lite mode is enabled in an application by defining CAPNP_LITE rather than by specifying an annotation in the schema file. This better-reflects real-world usage patterns, where you typically want to enable lite mode application-wide anyway. - We do not build the lite mode library by default. You must request it by passing --disable-reflection to the configure script. Before you can do that, you must have a prebuilt Cap'n Proto compiler binary available, since the compiler can't be built without reflection. - Relatedly, the lite mode library is built with the same name as the full library. This library is not intended to be installed. If anything it should be statically linked. But, mostly the option only exists on non-MSVC platform to give us a way to test that we haven't broken lite mode.

For portions currently copyright by Kenton (most of it), transfer copyright to Sandstorm Development Group, Inc. (Kenton's company). The license change is practically meaningless, as MIT and BSD 2-clause are legally equivalent. However, the BSD 2-clause license is sometimes confused for its ugly siblings, BSD 3-clause and BSD 4-clause. The MIT license is more immediately recognizeable for what it is. Rémy Blank and Jason Choy (the two non-trivial contributors) are on record as approving this change: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/capnproto/xXDd2HUOCcc/gbe_COIuXKYJ

Make it possible for a message builder to incorporate a byte array not owned by it without copying. Useful for injecting large data blobs into a message without copying their contents. Access this functionality through the Orphanage interface.

Eliminate the concept of imbuing messages in favor of the simpler concept of setting a cap table directly on MessageReader / getting one from MessageBuilder. This eliminates capability-context entirely. This was made possible by the earlier change which moved capabilities to a separate table rather than storing CapDescriptors inline, but I didn't realize it at the time.

Hack to make it safe to read capabilities from default values (returning broken caps) without introducing a dependency from libcapnp on libcapnp-rpc.

Change capability pointers to be indexes into a separate cap list so that CapDescriptors can be interpreted on receipt rather than delaying until the application actually traverses the message. This massively simplifies a lot of things.

Eliminate the ability to have multiple threads working on building the same message -- performance penalty is too large, and applies even to single-threaded users.

Revamp concurrency model, part 1: EventLoop no longer allows cross-thread event queuing, simplifying many things. Capability clients are no longer thread-safe, so they don't have to be so const. In the future, explicit ways to communicate between threads will be re-added, but threads will be treated more like separate vats that just happen to have a particularly fat pipe. Upcoming: Remove mutexes.

Spin off libraries kj-async and capnp-rpc, so that people who don't want them can avoid their large footprint.

Refactor capability code using fork. Still too much refcounting, though. Maybe this calls for a different design for pipelining...

Interface code generation. Also update method grammar to allow multiple returns, and allow specifying request/response structs instead of parameter lists.

Mark every destructor "noexcept(false)" unless it is very clearly noexcept. The change in C++11 making destructors default-noexcept was a mistake.

totalSizeInWords() method on generated struct readers/builders returns total size of the struct, not counting far pointer overhead. Useful for allocating space for a flat copy. Also a couple misc tweaks.
