In Amount, aismultiplier is a boolean flag that will always be False,
except for in TMPostingRules, where it indicates whether the posting
rule is a multiplier. It is therefore unnecessary in the vast majority
of cases. This posting pulls this flag out of Amount and puts it into
TMPostingRule, so it is only kept around when necessary.
This changes the parsing of journals somewhat. Previously you could
include an * before an amount anywhere in a Journal, and it would
happily parse and set the aismultiplier flag true. This will now fail
with a parse error: * is now only acceptable before an amount within an
auto posting rule.
Any usage of the library in which the aismultiplier field is read or set
should be removed. If you truly need its functionality, you should
switch to using TMPostingRule.
This changes the JSON output of Amount, as it will no longer include
aismultiplier.
transactions are balanced possibly using explicit prices, but without
inferring any prices. This is included in --strict mode.

instead of a list of Amounts. No longer export Mixed constructor, to
keep API clean (if you really need it, you can import it directly from
Hledger.Data.Types). We also ensure the JSON representation of
MixedAmount doesn't change: it is stored as a normalised list of
Amounts.
This commit improves performance. Here are some indicative results.

If you never directly use the constructor Mixed or pattern match against
it then you don't need to make any changes. If you do, then do the
following:
- If you really care about the individual Amounts and never normalise
your MixedAmount (for example, just storing `Mixed amts` and then
extracting `amts` as a pattern match, then use should switch to using
[Amount]. This should just involve removing the `Mixed` constructor.
- If you ever call `mixed`, `normaliseMixedAmount`, or do any sort of
amount arithmetic (+), (-), then you should replace the constructor
`Mixed` with the function `mixed`. To extract the list of Amounts, use
the function `amounts`.
- If you ever call `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`, you can
replace that with `mixedAmountStripPrices`. (N.B. this does something
slightly different from `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`,
but I don't think there's any use case for squashing prices and then
keeping the first of the squashed prices around. If you disagree let
me know.)
- Any remaining calls to `normaliseMixedAmount` can be removed, as that
is now the identity function.
Exceptions are for dealing with the pamount field, which is really just
dealing with an unnormalised list of amounts.
This creates an API for dealing with MixedAmount, so we never have to
access the internals outside of Hledger.Data.Amount.
Also remove a comment, since it looks like #1207 has been resolved.
aquantity.
Journal entries still require a positive @@ price, but now the sign is
set after parsing, rather than when converting in amountToCost.
The reason for this change is that, if we're going to perform arithmetic
on Amount with TotalCost, then the presence of aquantity=0 means that
amountToCost would render the total cost as 0, because signum 0 == 0.
This makes journal entries like the following impossible to balance:
2000-01-01
a 0 @@ 10 A
b -10 A
Error messages for these four are now a bit fancier and more
consistent. But not yet optimised for machine readability.
Cf #1436.
Added to hledger-lib: chomp1, linesPrepend[2].
Command-line account aliases now also affect transactions read
from these formats (not just journal format).
lib: journalApplyAliases, transactionApplyAliases, postingApplyAliases
helpers have been added.
Journal keeps a new piece of parsing state, a decimal mark character,
which can optionally be set to force the number format expected by all
amount parsers.
We now accept (but still ignore) a fixed or nonfixed ({=} or {}) lot
price following a posting amount, and it may appear before or after a
transaction price (@ or @@). And it may no longer appear after a
balance assertion.
Also: fixedlotpricep renamed to lotpricep, now also parses non-fixed
lot prices. A bit of amount parsers cleanup.
