104.02
11 - undo the fix from 4.01, it breaks more things than it fixes.
12
134.01 Sun Feb 24 05:03:30 CET 2019
14 - fix some stack corruption caused mostly when calling methods
15 in list context (tewstcase by Wesley Schwengle).
16
174.0 Fri Nov 16 00:06:54 CET 2018
18 - SECURITY IMPLICATION: this release enables allow_nonref by default
19 for compatibnility with RFC 7159 and newer. See "old" vs. "new"
20 JSON under SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS.
21 - reworked the "old" vs. "new" JSON section.
22 - add ->boolean_values to provide the values to which booleans
23 decode (requested by Aristotle Pagaltzis).
24 - decode would wrongly accept ASCII NUL characters instead of
25 reporting them as trailing garbage.
26 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
27 thrown in callbacks.
28 - incremental parser now more or less respects allow_nonref.
29 - json_xs json-pretty now enables canonical mode.
30 - add documentation section about I-JSON.
31 - minor documentation fixes/updates.
32
333.04 Thu Aug 17 04:30:47 CEST 2017
34 - change exponential realloc algorithm on encoding and string decoding to be
35 really exponential (this helps slow/debugging allocators such as libumem)
36 (reported by Matthew Horsfall).
37 - string encoding would needlessly overallocate output space
38 (testcase by Matthew Horsfall).
39 - be very paranoid about extending buffer lengths and croak if buffers get too large,
40 which might (or might not) improve security.
41 - add cbor-packed type to json_xs.
42 - switch from YAML to YAML::XS in json_xs, as YAML is way too buggy and outdated.
43
443.03 Wed Nov 16 20:20:59 CET 2016
45 - fix a bug introduced by a perl bug workaround that would cause
46 incremental parsing to fail with a sv_chop panic.
47 - json_xs: toformat failure error message fixed.
48 - json_xs: allow cyclic data structures in CBOR.
49
503.02 Fri Feb 26 22:45:20 CET 2016
51 - allow_nonref now affects booleans (\1, $Types::Serialiser::Boolean)
52 as well (reported by Alex Efros).
53 - allow literal tabs in strings in relaxed mode (patch by
54 lubo.rintel@gooddata.com).
55 - support "cbor" format in json_xs tool.
56 - support (and fix) calling encode and decode in list context
57 (reported by Вадим Власов).
58 - work around a bug in older perls crashing when presented
59 with shared hash keys (Reini Urban).
60 - use stability canary.
61
623.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013
63 - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth).
64
653.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013
66 - implemented an object tagging extension (using the
67 Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol).
68 - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation,
69 add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains th
70 whole process.
71 - new setting: allow_tags.
72 - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans.
73 - remove to_json/from_json.
74 - other minor improvements to the documentation.
75
762.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013
77 - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100
78 widely used modules, without a fix in sight because
79 p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore.
80 - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key
81 pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap,
82 to avoid using too much stackspace.
83 - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims).
84
852.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012
86 - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack
87 moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs).
88 - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs.
89 - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats.
90
912.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011
92 - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation.
93
942.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011
95 - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer
96 (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp
97 connection without triggering the max_size limit).
98 - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings
99 (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported
100 and analyzed by Goro Fuji).
101
1022.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010
103 - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental
104 parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher).
105 - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs.
106 - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump.
107 - added -f eval support to json_xs.
108
1092.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010
110 - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object
111 or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase
112 by Eric Wilhelm).
113
1142.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010
115 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
116 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
117 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
118 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
119 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
120 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
121 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
122
1232.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
124 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
125 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
126
1272.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
128 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
129 by Strobl Anton).
130 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
131 more expected and more true to the documentation.
132
1332.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
134 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
135 around the issue.
136 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
137 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
138 - require common sense.
139
1402.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
141 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
142 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
143 debugged by Martin Evans).
144 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
145 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
146 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
147
1482.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
149 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
150 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
151 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
152 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
153 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
154
1552.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
156 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
157 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
158 various people).
159 - add t/20_faihu.t.
160
1612.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
162 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
163 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
164 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
165 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
166 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
167
1682.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
169 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
170 char *.
171 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
172
1732.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
174 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
175 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
176 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
177 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
178
1792.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
180 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
181 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.
182
1832.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
184 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
185 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
186 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
187 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
188
1892.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
190 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
191 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
192 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
193 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
194 - add ->incr_reset method.
195
1962.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
197 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
198 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
199 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
200 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
5 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert 201 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
6 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more. 202 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
203 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
204 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
7 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if its the first 205 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
8 pod directive :/. 206 pod directive :/.
207 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
208 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
