3	TODO: allow a configurable recursion limit and/or or other forms of resource limiting (string size, memory usage...)	3	2.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
4	TODO: maybe simply use \0 and \1 as true/false when encoding (and overloaded/blessed versions thereof on	4	- (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
5	decoding?)	5	- remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
		6	- move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
		7	when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
		8	- add ->incr_reset method.
6		9
		10	2.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
		11	- lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
		12	- make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
		13	the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
		14	- added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
		15	- implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
		16	from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
		17	- implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
		18	- fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
		19	- moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
		20	pod directive :/.
		21	- removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
		22	outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
		23
		24	2.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
		25	- update documentation here and there: add a large section
		26	about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
		27	and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
		28	- medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
		29	- minor speedup in number encoding case.
		30	- extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
		31	between YAML and JSON.
		32	- switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
		33	- add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
		34	- fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
		35	- published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
		36	original url changes so comparison is impossible.
		37
		38	2.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
		39	- INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
		40	renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
		41	The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
		42	comaptible versions in some later release.
		43
		44	2.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
		45	- this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
		46	compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
		47	Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
		48	as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
		49	instead.
		50	- added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
		51	- make JSON::XS subclassable.
		52
		53	1.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
		54	- minor doc clarifications.
		55	- fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
		56
		57	1.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
		58	- remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
		59	parsers :/.
		60
		61	1.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
		62	- encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
		63	- apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
		64	JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
		65	the testsuite.
		66	- quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
		67	- require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
		68
		69	1.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
		70	- add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
		71	Marcus Holland-Moritz.
		72	- implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
		73	accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
		74
		75	1.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
		76	- very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
		77	the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
		78
		79	1.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
		80	- convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
		81	only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
		82
		83	1.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
		84	- fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
		85	(report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
		86
		87	1.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
		88	- fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
		89	affects convert_blessed only.
		90	- fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
		91	one time too often.
		92	- catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
		93	- antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
		94	C compilers (windows...).
		95
		96	1.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
		97	- add convert_blessed setting.
		98	- encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
		99	contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
		100	the allow_blessed setting.
		101	- added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
		102	settings that specify a callback to be called when
		103	all/specific json objects are encountered.
		104	- assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
		105	optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
		106	speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
		107	a smaller and faster perl hash.
		108	- implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
		109	in decode_json.
		110	- remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
		111	of JSON will not have them either.
		112	- bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
		113	into a more complex one.
		114	- work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
		115	is not an integer.
		116	- unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
		117	and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
		118
		119	1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
		120	- make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
		121	and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
		122	(JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
		123	- add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
		124	values.
		125	- add a reference to
		126	http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
		127	- removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
		128	Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
		129	which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
		130
		131	1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
		132	- added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
		133	- get rid of some c99-isms again.
		134	- localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
		135	string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
		136	- increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
		137	usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
		138	when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
		139
		140	1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
		141	- greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
		142	- implement a number of µ-optimisations.
		143	- updated benchmarks.
		144
		145	1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
		146	- require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
		147	the required macros.
		148	- possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
		149
		150	1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
		151	- character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
		152
		153	1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
		154	- decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
		155	- added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
		156	of unicode.
		157	- flag trailing garbage as error.
		158	- new decode_prefix method that returns the number
		159	of characters consumed by a decode.
		160	- max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
		161	as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
		162	- fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
		163
		164	1.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
		165	- properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
		166	C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
		167	- partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
		168	pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
		169	on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
		170	support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
		171
		172	1.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
		173	- clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
		174	- decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
		175	leading to segfaults.
		176	- further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
		177	failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
		178	to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
		179	that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
		180	module.
		181	- renamed json => JSON in error messages.
		182	- corrected the character offset in some error messages.
		183
		184	1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
		185	- do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
		186	a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
		187	This has no effect on normal operation.
		188
		189	1.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
		190	- the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
		191	- add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
		192	true and false.
		193	- add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
		194	- improve testsuite.
		195	- halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
		196	work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
		197	send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
		198
		199	0.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
		200	- fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
		201	- export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
		202	to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
		203	between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
		204	- implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
		205	- added a security considerations sections.
