- Correction d'un nouveau bug de undo de CoqIDE ("Admitted" et "Proof t"
n'étaient pas gérés, merci à Julien). - Correction pb blocage CoqIDE quand le browser n'est pas déja lancé (utilisation pour cela de Sys.command au lieu de Unix.open_process_full). - MAJ CHANGES et COMPATIBILITY. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/coq/trunk@11022 85f007b7-540e-0410-9357-904b9bb8a0f7

Tactics
-- Some bug fixes may lead to incompatibilities. This is e.g. the case
- of inversion on Type which failed to rewrite some hypotheses as it
- did on Prop/Set.
-
-- Add Morphism for the Prop/iff setoid now requires a proof of
- biimplication instead of a proof of implication.
-
-- The order of arguments in compatibility morphisms changed: the
- premises and the parameters are now interleaved while the whole
- bunch of parameters used to come first.
-
-- The previous implementation of the ring and field tactics are
- maintained but their name changed : require modules "LegacyRing" or
- "LegacyField" and globally replace calls to "ring" and "field" by
- calls to "legacy ring" and "legacy field".
-
-- Users ready to benefit of the power of the new implemetations have
- to know that
-
- - most of the time, ring solves goals similarly and often faster;
- - if not, it may be because the old ring did some automatic unfold;
- they now have to be done separately (by hand or using ltac);
- - most of the time, field solvesp goals similarly but much faster but
- there are usually less side conditions to prove;
- - to simplify expressions, use now ring_simplify and field_simplify;
- - simplifications are most of the time different: the new results are
- more natural but they may require some adaptation of proof scripts;
- - the Ring library no longer imports the Bool library (you may have
- to explicitly request a "Require Import Bool");
- - to declare new rings and fields, see the documentation.
+- The apply tactic now unfolds the constants if needed to succeed. As
+ a consequence, use of "try apply" or "repeat apply" or "apply" in
+ other Ltac potentially backtracking code may behave differently. Use
+ "simple apply" instead.
+
+- Add Relation and Add Morphism on polymorphic relations should now be
+ declared with Add Parametric Relation and Add Parametric Morphism.
+
+- Some bug fixes may lead to incompatibilities.

+- Some changes in the library (as mentioned in the CHANGES file) may

-- Occurrence numbering order for unfold, pattern, etc changed for the
- match construction: occurrences in the return clause now come after
- the occurrences in the term matched; this was the opposite before.
