9 1.51
10 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
11 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
12 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length > 2**31.
13
14 1.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
15 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
16 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
17 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
18 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
19 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
20 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
21 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
22 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
23 for both en- and decoding.
24 - implement support for rational numbers (see
25 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
26 en- and decoding.
27 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
28 in a sensible manner.
29 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
30 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
31 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
32 tests.
33 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
34 - use stability canary.
35
36 1.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
37 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
38 Victor Efimov).
39
40 1.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
41 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
42 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
43 This can potentially leak information in the error message
44 or crash the process.
45 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
46 - upgrade libecb.
47
48 1.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
49 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
50 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
51 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
52 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
53 have 64 bit integer support.
54 - upgrade libecb.
55
56 1.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
57 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
58 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
59
60 1.25 Sun Jan 5 15:19:14 CET 2014
61 - map key decoding was pretty much botched due to the recent cleanups.
62 - work around Time::Piece->epoch returning a string value, avoid encoding
63 this as a tag 1 string.
64 - enable more testcases in t/50_rfc.t, now that they work :)
65
66 1.2 Tue Dec 10 22:06:42 CET 2013
67 - implement an incremental decoder.
68
69 1.12 Tue Dec 3 11:23:22 CET 2013
70 - work around broken Time::Piece (in old versions of the module, %z doesn't
71 work as documented, gives different results on different platforms(!)).
72
73 1.11 Sun Dec 1 18:00:00 CET 2013
74 - new setting: validate_utf8, for when you can't trust your cbor data.
75 - do not leak memory on decoding errors, when allow_cycles is enabled.
76 - add default filters for tags 0 and 1, using Time::Piece.
77 - more tests added.
78
79 1.1 Sat Nov 30 19:14:27 CET 2013
80 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: new decoder setting: allow_cyclic, needed to decode
81 cyclic data structures (to avoid memleaks in unsuspecting code).
82 - no longer "share" references that aren't, i.e. true/false/null/error/tagged.
83 - fix stringref w.r.t. indefinite-length strings.
84 - verify indefinite-length string chunk types.
85 - do not allow extremely large arrays - assume an array element
86 requires at least one CBOR byte, to avoid memory exhaustion attacks.
87 - major code overhaul.
88
89 1.0 Thu Nov 28 16:43:31 CET 2013
90 - use the now official tag values for extensions. remove the
91 experimental notice. it's the real thing now, with real bugs.
92 - renamed allow_stringref to pack_strings.
93 - port to perl <= 5.16.
94 - slightly improve the documentation.
95
96 0.09 Fri Nov 22 16:54:18 CET 2013
97 - bignum/bigfloat/decimal support.
98 - uri support.
99 - tag filter functions support for decoding.
100 - do not support reference-to-1/0/undef anymore, you need to use
101 the Types::Serialiser objects now.
102 - experimental sharable extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing).
103 - experimental stringref extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/stringref).
104 - implement indirection tag (http://cbor.schmorp.de/indirection).
105
106 0.08 Wed Oct 30 11:10:43 CET 2013
107 - defused another too fragile test.
108
109 0.07 Tue Oct 29 23:04:07 CET 2013
110 - don't crash in decode when silly values are passed in.
111 - considerably speed up map decoding when map keys
112 are utf-8 or byte strings.
113 - raising an exception in THAW should now work without
114 leaking.
115
116 0.06 Tue Oct 29 16:56:07 CET 2013
117 - do not leak when deserialiasing via THAW.
118 - implement and document CBOR::XS creation/access/mutate
119 methods.
120
121 0.05 Mon Oct 28 22:27:47 CET 2013
122 - do not leak hash keys on decoding.
123
124 0.04 Sun Oct 27 23:47:47 CET 2013
125 - implement TO_CBOR/FREEZE/THAW serialisation protocols.
126 - requested perl-object and generic-object tags from iana.
127 - switched to Types::Serialiser for true, false and error.
128 - disabled some fragile tests (thanks, andk).
129
130 0.03 Sun Oct 27 00:28:41 CEST 2013
131 - improve 32 bit platform compatibility.
132 - take more advantage of ecb.h.

135
136 0.02 Sat Oct 26 13:08:05 CEST 2013
137 - no aborts left.
138 - add $CBOR::XS::MAGIC.
139 - preliminary tagged decoding to arrayref.
140 - indefinite encoding fixed.
141 - half float decoding implemented.
142 - t/50_rfc.t adds test vectors from the rfc, which
143 are checked as applicable.
144
