154.0
16 - SECURITY IMPLICATION: this release enables allow_nonref by default
17 for compatibnility with RFC 7159 and newer. See "old" vs. "new"
18 JSON under SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS.
19 - reworked the "old" vs. "new" JSON section.
20 - add ->boolean_values to provide the values to which booleans
21 decode.
22 - decode would wrongly accept ASCII NUL characters instead of
23 reporting them as trailing garbage.
24 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
25 thrown in callbacks.
26 - json_xs json-pretty now enables canonical mode.
27 - minor documentation fixes/updates.
28
293.04 Thu Aug 17 04:30:47 CEST 2017
30 - change exponential realloc algorithm on encoding and string decoding to be
31 really exponential (this helps slow/debugging allocators such as libumem)
32 (reported by Matthew Horsfall).
33 - string encoding would needlessly overallocate output space
34 (testcase by Matthew Horsfall).
35 - be very paranoid about extending buffer lengths and croak if buffers get too large,
36 which might (or might not) improve security.
37 - add cbor-packed type to json_xs.
38 - switch from YAML to YAML::XS in json_xs, as YAML is way too buggy and outdated.
39
403.03 Wed Nov 16 20:20:59 CET 2016
41 - fix a bug introduced by a perl bug workaround that would cause
42 incremental parsing to fail with a sv_chop panic.
43 - json_xs: toformat failure error message fixed.
44 - json_xs: allow cyclic data structures in CBOR.
45
463.02 Fri Feb 26 22:45:20 CET 2016
47 - allow_nonref now affects booleans (\1, $Types::Serialiser::Boolean)
48 as well (reported by Alex Efros).
49 - allow literal tabs in strings in relaxed mode (patch by
50 lubo.rintel@gooddata.com).
51 - support "cbor" format in json_xs tool.
52 - support (and fix) calling encode and decode in list context
53 (reported by Вадим Власов).
54 - work around a bug in older perls crashing when presented
55 with shared hash keys (Reini Urban).
56 - use stability canary.
57
583.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013
59 - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth).
60
613.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013
62 - implemented an object tagging extension (using the
63 Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol).
64 - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation,
65 add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains th
66 whole process.
67 - new setting: allow_tags.
68 - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans.
69 - remove to_json/from_json.
70 - other minor improvements to the documentation.
71
722.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013
73 - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100
74 widely used modules, without a fix in sight because
75 p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore.
76 - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key
77 pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap,
78 to avoid using too much stackspace.
79 - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims).
80
812.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012
82 - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack
83 moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs).
84 - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs.
85 - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats.
86
872.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011
88 - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation.
89
902.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011
91 - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer
92 (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp
93 connection without triggering the max_size limit).
94 - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings
95 (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported
96 and analyzed by Goro Fuji).
97
982.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010
99 - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental
100 parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher).
101 - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs.
102 - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump.
103 - added -f eval support to json_xs.
104
1052.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010
106 - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object
107 or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase
108 by Eric Wilhelm).
109
1102.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010
111 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
112 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
113 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
114 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
115 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
116 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
117 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
118
1192.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
120 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
121 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
122
1232.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
124 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
125 by Strobl Anton).
126 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
127 more expected and more true to the documentation.
128
1292.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
130 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
131 around the issue.
132 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
133 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
134 - require common sense.
135
1362.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
137 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
138 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
139 debugged by Martin Evans).
140 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
141 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
142 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
143
1442.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
145 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
146 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
147 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
148 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
149 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).

11 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would 159 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
