v3.0.0-alpha.1

Significant improvements of performance:

BenchmarkDotNet performance tests for formatters and ISources now show (depending on different input format strings) the following improvements compared to v2.7.0:

• increase in speed by up to 40%
• decrease of GC pressure (collects are only GC Generation 0, allocated memory reduced by up to 60%)

Formatting measured with a cached parsed Format, and including the result string returned to the caller. Parser was already optimized with PR #187.

v2.7.0.0

• Fixed broken backward compatibilty introduced in v2.6.2 (issues referenced in #148, #147, #143).
• Fixed: Take an erroneous format string like "this is {uncomplete" (missing closing brace). Before v2.7.0 the parser handled {uncomplete as a TextLiteral, not as an erroneous Placeholder.
• Fixed: Since v1.6.1 there was an undiscovered issue: If the Parser encountered a ParsingError.TooManyClosingBraces, this closing brace was simply "swallowed-up". This way, the result with Parser.ErrorAction.MaintainTokens differs from the original format string. From v2.7.0, the redundant closing brace is handled as a TextLiteral.
