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	- remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
4	not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic?	4	- move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
5	TODO: get rid of dynamic arrays to support so-called C compilers	5	when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
6	by fucking microsoft that do not do C. argl, snprintf is also	6
7	missing.	7	2.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
		8	- lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
		9	- make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
		10	the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
		11	- added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
		12	- implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
		13	from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
		14	- implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
		15	- fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
		16	- moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
		17	pod directive :/.
		18	- removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
		19	outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
		20
		21	2.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
		22	- update documentation here and there: add a large section
		23	about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
		24	and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
		25	- medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
		26	- minor speedup in number encoding case.
		27	- extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
		28	between YAML and JSON.
		29	- switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
		30	- add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
		31	- fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
		32	- published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
		33	original url changes so comparison is impossible.
		34
		35	2.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
		36	- INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
		37	renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
		38	The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
		39	comaptible versions in some later release.
		40
		41	2.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
		42	- this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
		43	compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
		44	Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
		45	as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
		46	instead.
		47	- added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
		48	- make JSON::XS subclassable.
		49
		50	1.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
		51	- minor doc clarifications.
		52	- fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
		53
		54	1.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
		55	- remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
		56	parsers :/.
		57
		58	1.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
		59	- encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
		60	- apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
		61	JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
		62	the testsuite.
		63	- quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
		64	- require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
		65
		66	1.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
		67	- add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
		68	Marcus Holland-Moritz.
		69	- implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
		70	accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
		71
		72	1.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
		73	- very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
		74	the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
		75
		76	1.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
		77	- convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
		78	only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
		79
		80	1.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
		81	- fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
		82	(report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
		83
		84	1.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
		85	- fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
		86	affects convert_blessed only.
		87	- fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
		88	one time too often.
		89	- catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
		90	- antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
		91	C compilers (windows...).
		92
		93	1.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
		94	- add convert_blessed setting.
		95	- encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
		96	contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
		97	the allow_blessed setting.
		98	- added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
		99	settings that specify a callback to be called when
		100	all/specific json objects are encountered.
		101	- assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
		102	optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
		103	speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
		104	a smaller and faster perl hash.
		105	- implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
		106	in decode_json.
		107	- remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
		108	of JSON will not have them either.
		109	- bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
		110	into a more complex one.
		111	- work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
		112	is not an integer.
		113	- unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
		114	and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
		115
		116	1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
		117	- make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
		118	and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
		119	(JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
		120	- add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
		121	values.
		122	- add a reference to
		123	http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
		124	- removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
		125	Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
		126	which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
		127
		128	1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
		129	- added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
		130	- get rid of some c99-isms again.
		131	- localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
		132	string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
		133	- increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
		134	usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
		135	when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
		136
		137	1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
		138	- greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
		139	- implement a number of µ-optimisations.
		140	- updated benchmarks.
		141
		142	1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
		143	- require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
		144	the required macros.
		145	- possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
		146
		147	1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
		148	- character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
		149
		150	1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
		151	- decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
		152	- added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
		153	of unicode.
		154	- flag trailing garbage as error.
		155	- new decode_prefix method that returns the number
		156	of characters consumed by a decode.
		157	- max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
		158	as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
		159	- fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
