104.0_00 Fri Nov 16 00:06:54 CET 2018
11 - 4.0 pre-release, do not use other than for testing.
12 - SECURITY IMPLICATION: this release enables allow_nonref by default
13 for compatibnility with RFC 7159 and newer. See "old" vs. "new"
14 JSON under SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS.
15 - reworked the "old" vs. "new" JSON section.
16 - add ->boolean_values to provide the values to which booleans
17 decode (requested by Aristotle Pagaltzis).
18 - decode would wrongly accept ASCII NUL characters instead of
19 reporting them as trailing garbage.
20 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
21 thrown in callbacks.
22 - incremental parser now more or less respects allow_nonref.
23 - json_xs json-pretty now enables canonical mode.
24 - add documentation section about I-JSON.
25 - minor documentation fixes/updates.
26
273.04 Thu Aug 17 04:30:47 CEST 2017
28 - change exponential realloc algorithm on encoding and string decoding to be
29 really exponential (this helps slow/debugging allocators such as libumem)
30 (reported by Matthew Horsfall).
31 - string encoding would needlessly overallocate output space
32 (testcase by Matthew Horsfall).
33 - be very paranoid about extending buffer lengths and croak if buffers get too large,
34 which might (or might not) improve security.
35 - add cbor-packed type to json_xs.
36 - switch from YAML to YAML::XS in json_xs, as YAML is way too buggy and outdated.
37
383.03 Wed Nov 16 20:20:59 CET 2016
39 - fix a bug introduced by a perl bug workaround that would cause
40 incremental parsing to fail with a sv_chop panic.
41 - json_xs: toformat failure error message fixed.
42 - json_xs: allow cyclic data structures in CBOR.
43
443.02 Fri Feb 26 22:45:20 CET 2016
45 - allow_nonref now affects booleans (\1, $Types::Serialiser::Boolean)
46 as well (reported by Alex Efros).
47 - allow literal tabs in strings in relaxed mode (patch by
48 lubo.rintel@gooddata.com).
49 - support "cbor" format in json_xs tool.
50 - support (and fix) calling encode and decode in list context
51 (reported by Вадим Власов).
52 - work around a bug in older perls crashing when presented
53 with shared hash keys (Reini Urban).
54 - use stability canary.
55
563.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013
57 - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth).
58
593.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013
60 - implemented an object tagging extension (using the
61 Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol).
62 - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation,
63 add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains th
64 whole process.
65 - new setting: allow_tags.
66 - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans.
67 - remove to_json/from_json.
68 - other minor improvements to the documentation.
69
702.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013
71 - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100
72 widely used modules, without a fix in sight because
73 p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore.
74 - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key
75 pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap,
76 to avoid using too much stackspace.
77 - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims).
78
792.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012
80 - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack
81 moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs).
82 - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs.
83 - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats.
84
852.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011
86 - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation.
87
882.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011
89 - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer
90 (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp
91 connection without triggering the max_size limit).
92 - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings
93 (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported
94 and analyzed by Goro Fuji).
95
962.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010
97 - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental
98 parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher).
99 - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs.
100 - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump.
101 - added -f eval support to json_xs.
102
1032.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010
104 - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object
105 or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase
106 by Eric Wilhelm).
107
1082.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010
109 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
110 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
111 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
112 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
113 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
114 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
115 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
116
1172.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
118 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
119 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
120
1212.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
122 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
123 by Strobl Anton).
124 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
125 more expected and more true to the documentation.
126
1272.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
128 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
129 around the issue.
130 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
131 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
132 - require common sense.
133
1342.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
135 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
136 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
137 debugged by Martin Evans).
138 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
139 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
140 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
141
1422.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
143 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
144 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
145 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
146 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
147 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
148
1492.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
150 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
151 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
152 various people).
153 - add t/20_faihu.t.
154
1552.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
156 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
157 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
158 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
159 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
160 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
161
1622.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
163 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
164 char *.
165 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
166
1672.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
168 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
169 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
170 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
171 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
172
1732.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
174 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
175 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.

32.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008 1772.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
4 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser. 178 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
5 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser 179 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
6 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman). 180 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
