3 TODO: pack_keys?
4 TODO: document encode_cbor_sharing?
5 TODO: weaken cyclic structures?
6 TODO: allowed_classes or so?
7
8 - the Math::BigFloat maintainer apparently thinks that changing
9 documented maths function to suddenly yield different results or
10 to fail completely on valid input is cool. Try to work around
11 this madness - if Math::BigFloat changes its API too much,
12 future versions will have to remove support for bignums
13 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
14
15 1.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
16 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
17 Victor Efimov).
18
19 1.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
20 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
21 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
22 This can potentially leak information in the error message
23 or crash the process.
24 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
25 - upgrade libecb.
26
27 1.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
28 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
29 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
30 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
31 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
32 have 64 bit integer support.
33 - upgrade libecb.
34
35 1.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
36 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
37 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
38
39 1.25 Sun Jan 5 15:19:14 CET 2014
40 - map key decoding was pretty much botched due to the recent cleanups.
41 - work around Time::Piece->epoch returning a string value, avoid encoding
42 this as a tag 1 string.
43 - enable more testcases in t/50_rfc.t, now that they work :)
44
45 1.2 Tue Dec 10 22:06:42 CET 2013
46 - implement an incremental decoder.
47
48 1.12 Tue Dec 3 11:23:22 CET 2013
49 - work around broken Time::Piece (in old versions of the module, %z doesn't
50 work as documented, gives different results on different platforms(!)).
51
52 1.11 Sun Dec 1 18:00:00 CET 2013
53 - new setting: validate_utf8, for when you can't trust your cbor data.
54 - do not leak memory on decoding errors, when allow_cycles is enabled.
55 - add default filters for tags 0 and 1, using Time::Piece.
56 - more tests added.
57
58 1.1 Sat Nov 30 19:14:27 CET 2013
59 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: new decoder setting: allow_cyclic, needed to decode
60 cyclic data structures (to avoid memleaks in unsuspecting code).
61 - no longer "share" references that aren't, i.e. true/false/null/error/tagged.
62 - fix stringref w.r.t. indefinite-length strings.
63 - verify indefinite-length string chunk types.
64 - do not allow extremely large arrays - assume an array element
65 requires at least one CBOR byte, to avoid memory exhaustion attacks.
66 - major code overhaul.
67
68 1.0 Thu Nov 28 16:43:31 CET 2013
69 - use the now official tag values for extensions. remove the
70 experimental notice. it's the real thing now, with real bugs.
71 - renamed allow_stringref to pack_strings.
72 - port to perl <= 5.16.
73 - slightly improve the documentation.
74
75 0.09 Fri Nov 22 16:54:18 CET 2013
76 - bignum/bigfloat/decimal support.
77 - uri support.
78 - tag filter functions support for decoding.
79 - do not support reference-to-1/0/undef anymore, you need to use
80 the Types::Serialiser objects now.
81 - experimental sharable extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing).
82 - experimental stringref extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/stringref).
83 - implement indirection tag (http://cbor.schmorp.de/indirection).
84
85 0.08 Wed Oct 30 11:10:43 CET 2013
86 - defused another too fragile test.
87
88 0.07 Tue Oct 29 23:04:07 CET 2013
89 - don't crash in decode when silly values are passed in.
90 - considerably speed up map decoding when map keys
91 are utf-8 or byte strings.
92 - raising an exception in THAW should now work without
93 leaking.
94
95 0.06 Tue Oct 29 16:56:07 CET 2013
96 - do not leak when deserialiasing via THAW.
97 - implement and document CBOR::XS creation/access/mutate
98 methods.
99
100 0.05 Mon Oct 28 22:27:47 CET 2013
101 - do not leak hash keys on decoding.
102
103 0.04 Sun Oct 27 23:47:47 CET 2013
104 - implement TO_CBOR/FREEZE/THAW serialisation protocols.
105 - requested perl-object and generic-object tags from iana.
106 - switched to Types::Serialiser for true, false and error.
107 - disabled some fragile tests (thanks, andk).
108
109 0.03 Sun Oct 27 00:28:41 CEST 2013
110 - improve 32 bit platform compatibility.
111 - take more advantage of ecb.h.
112 - preliminary and bare-bones tagged support.
113 - improved docs.
114
115 0.02 Sat Oct 26 13:08:05 CEST 2013
116 - no aborts left.
117 - add $CBOR::XS::MAGIC.
118 - preliminary tagged decoding to arrayref.
119 - indefinite encoding fixed.
120 - half float decoding implemented.
121 - t/50_rfc.t adds test vectors from the rfc, which
122 are checked as applicable.
123
124 0.01 Fri Oct 25 21:39:56 CEST 2013
125 - original version; cloned from JSON-XS
