Bumps altcover from 8.2.825 to 8.2.833.

Release notes

Sourced from altcover's releases.

Habu series release 10

8.2.833

• [BUGFIX] Work-round more (problems with ill-formed debug data)[https://github-redirect.dependabot.com/System.IndexOutOfRangeException resolving local scopes in Cecil 0.11.4 jbevain/cecil#816] (issue #135)
• [BUGFIX] An infinite loop while instrumenting when faced with an inner function that is also a closure (also issue #135)
• [BUGFIX] Address issue #71 by pre-allocating storage for each instrumented assembly; rather than allocating on demand, with any timing related issues not adequately dealt with subject to catch-and-ignore
• For instrumented assemblies, write embedded debug symbols, independent of the input choice.
• Improved release note formatting
• Some overhaul and updating of neglected parts of the build and test script
• Reduce to a minimum the differences in the source between the net20 and net46-for-async versions of the recorder; then just rewrite the net20 version with the delta on demand.
• Some minor improvements to the data collector for dotnet test use, with example of how to employ explicitly in AltCover "classic" mode in the "UnitTestWithAltCoverCore" fake build target

Habu series release 9

8.2.831

• [BUGFIX] Make the static-linked parts of the recorder assembly internal, so only the AltCover instrumentation API is exposed -- removes type duplications from the environment that may confuse run-time assembly creation e.g. by Marten (issue #133)
• For CallContext, add async-aware tracking for all methods returning Task or Task<T> not just ones with the C# async shape. This includes functions returning the new F#6 task{} computation expression.
  • Note there is a support gap : running this under .net Framework less than v4.6 (i.e. a test machine with a pre-2015-JUL-20 environment) will not work, even though Task is a .net 4.0 feature, as the tracking support relies on .net 4.6 async features.
• Emit (a warning)[https://stevegilham.github.io/altcover/AltCover.Engine/AltCover/AltCover.LoggingOptions/Warn-apidoc] if any of the files input to the instrumentations have previously been instrumented, leaving those files untouched (apart from any Recorder assembly, which will still be overwritten). For dotnet test this is an MSBuild warning, for powershell, it is delivered via Cmdlet.WriteWarning.
  • This behaviour is subject to change in future releases
• Rework of the build process to keep artifacts out of the tracked directories

Habu series release 8

8.2.828

• Absorb .net 6 release into build tooling (awaiting a non-preview updated release of (fake.build)[https://fake.build/] to be able to upgrade to FSharp.Core 6.x -- still have to target the v5.x library even if the build uses the F#6 compiler)
• Where the debug symbols used in the instrumentation contain embedded source (e.g. from source generators), represent that within the generated report --
  • for OpenCover format, as an altcover.embed attribute added to the File element
  • for NCover classic, altcover.file elements are added after the method records in a module, with attributes document and embed
  • and for the extended coverlet JSON format, as a type «AltCover.embed» with an empty method with name being the embedded text.
• [VISUALIZER] Support the extended formats for display, using the embedded source in preference to the file system whenever present
• Support these extensions in conversions between formats -- conversion to Lcov and Cobertura currently lose this information
• Other fixes/enhancements to these conversions, esp. in the cases of partial classes and inlined code
• Compute summary data correctly in the output from Json to OpenCover
• Carry both recorder versions (net20 and net46) as resources to simplify self-test behaviour
• Move baseline Cake support to v1.1.0 and Fake to v5.20.4
