v9.0.0

· One min read

This version of Wasmbox upgrades to Wasmtime v9.0.1.

The new IVirtualSocket interface introduced in Wasmbox adds support for the Wasi-Socket proposal. The only implementation currently included in Wasmbox (NonFunctionalSocket) does not provide network connectivity, instead it always acts as if it is not connected to a network. This can be useful when a large compiled WASM program imports sockets, but you do not actually need networking connectivity for your use case.

Wasmbox is very new, so it is likely you will encounter bugs, awkward APIs or missing features. Please direct feedback to Discord or the Issue Tracker.

Features 🚀​

  • Wasmtime v9.0.1
  • Wasmtime-dotnet v9.0.1
    • Added Store.SetLimits which adds hard limits on the amount of memory that can be consumed by WASM.
  • Added a IVirtualSocket, representing WASI socket support.
  • Added NonFunctionalSocket, an implementation of IVirtualSocket which acts as if it is not connected to a network.
  • Modified WASI interfaces to use ref,out and Span<T> parameters where possible instead of Pointer<T> and Buffer<T>. This significantly improves the user experience when interacting with these interfaces from non WASM code.
