1	Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS	1	Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS
2		2
3	TODO: maybe use some overload magic to decode true and false into something	3	- added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
4	not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic?	4	- implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
		5	from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
		6	- moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if its the first
		7	pod directive :/.
		8
		9	2.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
		10	- update documentation here and there: add a large section
		11	about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
		12	and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
		13	- medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
		14	- minor speedup in number encoding case.
		15	- extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
		16	between YAML and JSON.
		17	- switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
		18	- add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
		19	- fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
		20	- published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
		21	original url changes so comparison is impossible.
		22
		23	2.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
		24	- INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
		25	renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
		26	The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
		27	comaptible versions in some later release.
		28
		29	2.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
		30	- this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
		31	compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
		32	Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
		33	as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
		34	instead.
		35	- added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
		36	- make JSON::XS subclassable.
		37
		38	1.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
		39	- minor doc clarifications.
		40	- fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
		41
		42	1.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
		43	- remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
		44	parsers :/.
		45
		46	1.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
		47	- encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
		48	- apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
		49	JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
		50	the testsuite.
		51	- quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
		52	- require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
		53
		54	1.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
		55	- add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
		56	Marcus Holland-Moritz.
		57	- implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
		58	accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
		59
		60	1.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
		61	- very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
		62	the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
		63
		64	1.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
		65	- convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
		66	only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
		67
		68	1.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
		69	- fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
		70	(report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
		71
		72	1.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
		73	- fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
		74	affects convert_blessed only.
		75	- fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
		76	one time too often.
		77	- catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
		78	- antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
		79	C compilers (windows...).
		80
		81	1.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
		82	- add convert_blessed setting.
		83	- encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
		84	contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
		85	the allow_blessed setting.
		86	- added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
		87	settings that specify a callback to be called when
		88	all/specific json objects are encountered.
		89	- assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
		90	optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
		91	speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
		92	a smaller and faster perl hash.
		93	- implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
		94	in decode_json.
		95	- remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
		96	of JSON will not have them either.
		97	- bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
		98	into a more complex one.
		99	- work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
		100	is not an integer.
		101	- unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
		102	and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
		103
		104	1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
		105	- make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
		106	and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
		107	(JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
		108	- add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
		109	values.
		110	- add a reference to
		111	http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
		112	- removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
		113	Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
		114	which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
		115
		116	1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
		117	- added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
		118	- get rid of some c99-isms again.
		119	- localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
		120	string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
		121	- increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
		122	usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
		123	when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
		124
		125	1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
		126	- greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
		127	- implement a number of µ-optimisations.
		128	- updated benchmarks.
		129
		130	1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
		131	- require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
		132	the required macros.
		133	- possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
		134
		135	1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
		136	- character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
		137
		138	1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
		139	- decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
		140	- added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
		141	of unicode.
		142	- flag trailing garbage as error.
		143	- new decode_prefix method that returns the number
		144	of characters consumed by a decode.
		145	- max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
		146	as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
		147	- fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
		148
		149	1.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
		150	- properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
		151	C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
		152	- partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
		153	pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
		154	on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
		155	support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
		156
		157	1.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
		158	- clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
		159	- decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
		160	leading to segfaults.
		161	- further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
		162	failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
		163	to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
		164	that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
		165	module.
		166	- renamed json => JSON in error messages.
		167	- corrected the character offset in some error messages.
5		168
6	1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007	169	1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
7	- do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed	170	- do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
8	a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).	171	a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
9	This has no effect on normal operation.	172	This has no effect on normal operation.
