9 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
10 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
11 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
12 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
13 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
14 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
15 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
16 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
17 for both en- and decoding.
18 - implement support for rational numbers (see
19 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
20 en- and decoding.
21 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
22 in a sensible manner.
23 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
24 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
25 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
26 tests.
27 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
28 - use stability canary.
29
30 1.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
31 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
32 Victor Efimov).
33
34 1.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
35 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
36 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
37 This can potentially leak information in the error message
38 or crash the process.
39 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
40 - upgrade libecb.
41
42 1.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
43 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
44 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
45 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
46 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
47 have 64 bit integer support.
48 - upgrade libecb.
49
50 1.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
51 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
52 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
53
54 1.25 Sun Jan 5 15:19:14 CET 2014
55 - map key decoding was pretty much botched due to the recent cleanups.
56 - work around Time::Piece->epoch returning a string value, avoid encoding
57 this as a tag 1 string.
58 - enable more testcases in t/50_rfc.t, now that they work :)
59
60 1.2 Tue Dec 10 22:06:42 CET 2013
61 - implement an incremental decoder.
62
63 1.12 Tue Dec 3 11:23:22 CET 2013
64 - work around broken Time::Piece (in old versions of the module, %z doesn't
65 work as documented, gives different results on different platforms(!)).
66
67 1.11 Sun Dec 1 18:00:00 CET 2013
68 - new setting: validate_utf8, for when you can't trust your cbor data.
69 - do not leak memory on decoding errors, when allow_cycles is enabled.
70 - add default filters for tags 0 and 1, using Time::Piece.
71 - more tests added.
72
73 1.1 Sat Nov 30 19:14:27 CET 2013
74 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: new decoder setting: allow_cyclic, needed to decode
75 cyclic data structures (to avoid memleaks in unsuspecting code).
76 - no longer "share" references that aren't, i.e. true/false/null/error/tagged.
77 - fix stringref w.r.t. indefinite-length strings.
78 - verify indefinite-length string chunk types.
79 - do not allow extremely large arrays - assume an array element
80 requires at least one CBOR byte, to avoid memory exhaustion attacks.
81 - major code overhaul.
82
83 1.0 Thu Nov 28 16:43:31 CET 2013
84 - use the now official tag values for extensions. remove the
85 experimental notice. it's the real thing now, with real bugs.
86 - renamed allow_stringref to pack_strings.
87 - port to perl <= 5.16.
88 - slightly improve the documentation.
89
90 0.09 Fri Nov 22 16:54:18 CET 2013
91 - bignum/bigfloat/decimal support.
92 - uri support.
93 - tag filter functions support for decoding.
94 - do not support reference-to-1/0/undef anymore, you need to use
95 the Types::Serialiser objects now.
96 - experimental sharable extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing).
97 - experimental stringref extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/stringref).
98 - implement indirection tag (http://cbor.schmorp.de/indirection).
99
100 0.08 Wed Oct 30 11:10:43 CET 2013
101 - defused another too fragile test.
102
103 0.07 Tue Oct 29 23:04:07 CET 2013
104 - don't crash in decode when silly values are passed in.
105 - considerably speed up map decoding when map keys
106 are utf-8 or byte strings.
107 - raising an exception in THAW should now work without
108 leaking.
109
110 0.06 Tue Oct 29 16:56:07 CET 2013
111 - do not leak when deserialiasing via THAW.
112 - implement and document CBOR::XS creation/access/mutate
113 methods.
114
115 0.05 Mon Oct 28 22:27:47 CET 2013
116 - do not leak hash keys on decoding.
117
118 0.04 Sun Oct 27 23:47:47 CET 2013
119 - implement TO_CBOR/FREEZE/THAW serialisation protocols.
120 - requested perl-object and generic-object tags from iana.
121 - switched to Types::Serialiser for true, false and error.
122 - disabled some fragile tests (thanks, andk).
123
124 0.03 Sun Oct 27 00:28:41 CEST 2013
125 - improve 32 bit platform compatibility.
126 - take more advantage of ecb.h.

130 0.02 Sat Oct 26 13:08:05 CEST 2013
131 - no aborts left.
132 - add $CBOR::XS::MAGIC.
133 - preliminary tagged decoding to arrayref.
134 - indefinite encoding fixed.
135 - half float decoding implemented.
136 - t/50_rfc.t adds test vectors from the rfc, which
137 are checked as applicable.
