299 - Now a thread/process by default is not deleted when the task submitted take more time than maxInactiveTime configured (issue #70).
300
301 ### Breaking Changes
302
303 - `FullPool` event is now renamed to `busy`.
304 - `maxInactiveTime` on `ThreadWorker` default behavior is now changed, if you want to keep the old behavior set `killBehavior` to `KillBehaviors.HARD`.
305 _Find more details on our JSDoc._
306
307 - `maxTasks` option on `FixedThreadPool` and `DynamicThreadPool` is now removed since is no more needed.
308
309 - We changed some internal structures, but you shouldn't be too affected by them as these are internal changes.
310
311 ### Pool options types declaration merge
312
313 `FixedThreadPoolOptions` and `DynamicThreadPoolOptions` type declarations have been merged to `PoolOptions<Worker>`.
314
315 #### New `export` strategy
316
317 ```js
318 // Before
319 const DynamicThreadPool = require('poolifier/lib/dynamic')
320 // After
321 const { DynamicThreadPool } = require('poolifier/lib/dynamic')
322 ```
323
324 But you should always prefer just using
325
326 ```js
327 const { DynamicThreadPool } = require('poolifier')
328 ```
329
330 #### New type definitions for input data and response
331
332 For cluster worker and worker-thread pools, you can now only send and receive serializable data.
333 _This is not a limitation by poolifier but NodeJS._
334
335 #### Public property replacements
336
337 `numWorkers` property is now `numberOfWorkers`
338
339 #### Internal (protected) properties and methods renaming
340
341 These properties are not intended for end users
342
343 - `id` => `nextMessageId`
344
345 These methods are not intended for end users
346
347 - `_chooseWorker` => `chooseWorker`
348 - `_newWorker` => `createWorker`
349 - `_execute` => `internalExecute`
350 - `_chooseWorker` => `chooseWorker`
351 - `_checkAlive` => `checkAlive`
352 - `_run` => `run`
353 - `_runAsync` => `runAsync`
354
355 ## [1.1.0] - 2020-05-21
356
357 ### Added
358
359 - ThreadWorker support async functions as option
360 - Various external library patches
361
362 ## [1.0.0] - 2020-01-24
363
364 ### Added
365
366 - FixedThreadPool implementation
367 - DynamicThreadPool implementation
368 - WorkerThread implementation to improve developer experience
