Revision history for Perl extension Compress::LZF

3.7  Sun Aug 25 20:12:58 CEST 2013
        - update liblzf to version 3.7 (speedups, no bugfixes).
        - add _best versions that use lzf_c_best.

3.43 Mon Dec 29 09:46:17 CET 2008
        - port to perls that pointlessly have enabled windows process
          emulation on unix (broguht to my attention by Guillaume Rousse).

3.42 Wed Dec 17 01:35:47 CET 2008
        - grr, require_pv doesn't work either, roll our own.
        - name the correct function serialiser function name
          in error messages.

3.41 Tue Sep 23 01:59:02 CEST 2008
        - it would be nice if the fact that load_module eats
          the module name were documented :(, in any case,
          switching to require_pv fixes all the mysterious
          crashes.
        - be more forgiving instead of crashing when the
          serialiser doesn't return a string.

3.4  Fri Sep  5 17:27:10 CEST 2008
        - update to liblzf-3.4.

3.11 Wed Jan  9 22:43:17 CET 2008
        - add PUTBACK/SPAGAIN around need_storable calls, fixing
          a potential stack change problem when loading the serialiser.

3.1  Fri Nov 30 11:35:47 CET 2007
        - update to liblzf-3.1.

2.0  Tue Nov 13 22:49:57 CET 2007
        - update to liblzf-3.0.

1.9  Fri Nov  2 13:34:21 CET 2007
        - require perl 5.008.
        - updated to liblzf version 2.1.

1.8  Wed Apr 18 14:40:20 CEST 2007
        - properly downgrade all scalars to octet form when
          required.
        - strings potentially containing non-latin1 characters
          get frozen via the serialiser.

1.71 Fri Feb 16 23:09:04 CET 2007
        - fix memory leak when feeding illegal data to decompress.
        - allocate hash dynamically - slower, but having 256k of stack
          is not ubiquitiously available.

1.7  Wed Sep 27 17:52:39 CEST 2006
        - fix buffer overflows in decompress header.

1.65 Fri Jul  7 17:42:12 CEST 2006
        - upgrade to liblzf-1.6.

1.6  Sat Oct  1 03:34:11 CEST 2005
        - now really allow non-Storable serialisers.

1.52 Sat Oct  1 03:23:52 CEST 2005
        - changed mstore to net_mstore default.

1.51 Thu Apr 14 18:59:03 CEST 2005
        - upped compress size limit from 64MB to 2GB (reported
          by Jan Sundberg, who actually ran into the limit :).
        - *blush*, changed Zev-Limpel to Lempel-Ziv... funny that
          nobody spotted thta braino.

1.5   Tue Mar  8 21:04:23 CET 2005
        - upgraded to liblzf-1.5 (faster, slightly worse compression).

1.401 Thu Mar  3 18:00:52 CET 2005
        - upgraded to liblzf-1.401.
        - change of contact address.

1.4   Wed Dec 15 08:09:33 CET 2004
        - upgraded to liblzf-1.4.

1.0   Mon May  3 20:25:07 CEST 2004
        - yet another minor reference copying vs. inc bug.

0.1046 Fri Jan 17 08:14:30 CET 2003
        - added debian files, realized that debians package management
          is quite useless.

0.1045 Thu Sep  5 23:54:11 CEST 2002
        - always make a stringified copy of the argument for
          sfreeze, so the assertion "sfreeze makes a string out
          of it's argument" holds even for integers.
        - "simple" objects now include PVIV and PVNV.

0.1044 Thu Sep  5 06:44:13 CEST 2002
        - MINOR: add set_serializer interface.

0.1043 Sat May 18 23:40:01 CEST 2002
        - bugfix when freezing non-SVt_PV-PV's.
        - thanks to all cpan-testers ;)

0.1042 Fri May 17 22:09:08 CEST 2002
        - removed some debugging code that kept sfreeze from properly

0.1041 Wed Apr 10 05:12:47 CEST 2002
        - sthaw now returns a copy of it's argument instead of the argument
          itself in the pass-through case, as this is the required semantics
          for perl.

0.104 Tue Mar 26 18:48:02 CET 2002
        - fix more logic bugs. never wrote functions with such contorted
          logic :( maybe I should just ignore the idea of saving single bytes
          whereever possible to make this module much cleaner...

0.103 Sun Mar  3 05:39:00 CET 2002
        - try to handle magical objects that are no references
          by creating a referebce to them and passing this ref to
          storable.

0.102 Wed Feb 27 21:50:18 CET 2002
        - handle magic in sfreeze.

0.101 Fri Feb 22 01:15:25 CET 2002
        - handle magic in sthaw.

0.1   Thu Sep 27 18:50:11 CEST 2001
        - compress/decompress considered stable.
        - added sfreeze, sfreeze_c and sfreeze_cr.

0.05  Thu Jan 25 12:47:36 CET 2001
        - uncompress leaked memory. doh!

0.04  Tue Jan 16 13:21:14 CET 2001
        - fix silly beginners 32/64 bit mistake.

0.03  Sat Jan 13 19:19:15 CET 2001
        - small testsuite fix (use Compress::LZF instead of LZV1!).

0.02  Thu Jan  4 05:51:26 CET 2001
        - upgraded to liblzf-0.2

0.01
        - improved version of Compress::LZV1, better compression, saner format
          freeer license, faster code...
