# 2.0.0 (in progress)
## Breaking changes
* Removed C++98 support
* Removed legacy reporter support
* Removed legacy generator support
* Generator support will come back later, reworked
* Removed `Catch::toString` support
* The new stringification machinery uses `Catch::StringMaker` specializations first and `operator<<` overloads second.
* Removed legacy `SCOPED_MSG` and `SCOPED_INFO` macros
* Output into debugger is now colourized
* `*_THROWS_AS(expr, exception_type)` now unconditionally appends `const&` to the exception type.
* `CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE` now affects the `CHECK_` family of assertions as well as `REQUIRE_` family of assertions
* This is most noticeable in `CHECK(throws())`, which would previously report failure, properly stringify the exception and continue. Now it will report failure and stop executing current section.
## Improvements
* Reporters and Listeners can be defined in files different from the main file
* The file has to define `CATCH_CONFIG_EXTERNAL_INTERFACES` before including catch.hpp.
* Errors that happen during set up before main are now caught and properly reported once main is entered
* If you are providing your own main, you can access and use these as well.
* New assertion macros, *_THROWS_WITH(expr, exception_type, matcher) are provided
* As the arguments suggest, these allow you to assert that an expression throws desired type of exception and pass the exception to a matcher.
* JUnit reporter no longer has significantly different output for test cases with and without sections
* Most assertions now support expressions containing commas (ie `REQUIRE(foo() == std::vector<int>{1, 2, 3});`)
* Catch now contains experimental micro benchmarking support
* See `projects/SelfTest/Benchmark.tests.cpp` for examples
* The support being experiment means that it can be changed without prior notice
* Catch uses new CLI parsing library (Clara)
* Users can now easily add new command line options to the final executable
* This also leads to some changes in `Catch::Session` interface
## Fixes
## Internal changes
* The development version now uses .cpp files instead of header files containing implementation.
* This makes partial rebuilds much faster during development
* The expression decomposition layer has been rewritten
* The evaluation layer has been rewritten
* New library (TextFlow) is used for formatting text to output
# 1.9.6
