9 | 4.0 Fri Nov 16 00:06:54 CET 2018 |
|
|
10 | - 4.0 pre-release, do not use other than for testing. |
|
|
11 | - SECURITY IMPLICATION: this release enables allow_nonref by default |
|
|
12 | for compatibnility with RFC 7159 and newer. See "old" vs. "new" |
|
|
13 | JSON under SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS. |
|
|
14 | - reworked the "old" vs. "new" JSON section. |
|
|
15 | - add ->boolean_values to provide the values to which booleans |
|
|
16 | decode (requested by Aristotle Pagaltzis). |
|
|
17 | - decode would wrongly accept ASCII NUL characters instead of |
|
|
18 | reporting them as trailing garbage. |
|
|
19 | - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions |
|
|
20 | thrown in callbacks. |
|
|
21 | - incremental parser now more or less respects allow_nonref. |
|
|
22 | - json_xs json-pretty now enables canonical mode. |
|
|
23 | - add documentation section about I-JSON. |
|
|
24 | - minor documentation fixes/updates. |
|
|
25 | |
|
|
26 | 3.04 Thu Aug 17 04:30:47 CEST 2017 |
|
|
27 | - change exponential realloc algorithm on encoding and string decoding to be |
|
|
28 | really exponential (this helps slow/debugging allocators such as libumem) |
|
|
29 | (reported by Matthew Horsfall). |
|
|
30 | - string encoding would needlessly overallocate output space |
|
|
31 | (testcase by Matthew Horsfall). |
|
|
32 | - be very paranoid about extending buffer lengths and croak if buffers get too large, |
|
|
33 | which might (or might not) improve security. |
|
|
34 | - add cbor-packed type to json_xs. |
|
|
35 | - switch from YAML to YAML::XS in json_xs, as YAML is way too buggy and outdated. |
|
|
36 | |
|
|
37 | 3.03 Wed Nov 16 20:20:59 CET 2016 |
|
|
38 | - fix a bug introduced by a perl bug workaround that would cause |
|
|
39 | incremental parsing to fail with a sv_chop panic. |
|
|
40 | - json_xs: toformat failure error message fixed. |
|
|
41 | - json_xs: allow cyclic data structures in CBOR. |
|
|
42 | |
|
|
43 | 3.02 Fri Feb 26 22:45:20 CET 2016 |
|
|
44 | - allow_nonref now affects booleans (\1, $Types::Serialiser::Boolean) |
|
|
45 | as well (reported by Alex Efros). |
|
|
46 | - allow literal tabs in strings in relaxed mode (patch by |
|
|
47 | lubo.rintel@gooddata.com). |
|
|
48 | - support "cbor" format in json_xs tool. |
|
|
49 | - support (and fix) calling encode and decode in list context |
|
|
50 | (reported by Вадим Власов). |
|
|
51 | - work around a bug in older perls crashing when presented |
|
|
52 | with shared hash keys (Reini Urban). |
|
|
53 | - use stability canary. |
|
|
54 | |
|
|
55 | 3.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013 |
|
|
56 | - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth). |
|
|
57 | |
|
|
58 | 3.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013 |
|
|
59 | - implemented an object tagging extension (using the |
|
|
60 | Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol). |
|
|
61 | - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation, |
|
|
62 | add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains th |
|
|
63 | whole process. |
|
|
64 | - new setting: allow_tags. |
|
|
65 | - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans. |
|
|
66 | - remove to_json/from_json. |
|
|
67 | - other minor improvements to the documentation. |
|
|
68 | |
|
|
69 | 2.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013 |
|
|
70 | - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100 |
|
|
71 | widely used modules, without a fix in sight because |
|
|
72 | p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore. |
|
|
73 | - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key |
|
|
74 | pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap, |
|
|
75 | to avoid using too much stackspace. |
|
|
76 | - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims). |
|
|
77 | |
|
|
78 | 2.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012 |
|
|
79 | - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack |
|
|
80 | moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs). |
|
|
81 | - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs. |
|
|
82 | - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats. |
|
|
83 | |
|
|
84 | 2.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011 |
|
|
85 | - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation. |
|
|
86 | |
|
|
87 | 2.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011 |
|
|
88 | - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer |
|
|
89 | (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp |
|
|
90 | connection without triggering the max_size limit). |
|
|
91 | - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings |
|
|
92 | (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported |
|
|
93 | and analyzed by Goro Fuji). |
|
|
94 | |
|
|
95 | 2.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010 |
|
|
96 | - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental |
|
|
97 | parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher). |
|
|
98 | - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs. |
|
|
99 | - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump. |
|
|
100 | - added -f eval support to json_xs. |
|
|
101 | |
|
|
102 | 2.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010 |
|
|
103 | - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object |
|
|
104 | or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase |
|
|
105 | by Eric Wilhelm). |
|
|
106 | |
|
|
107 | 2.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010 |
|
|
108 | - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of |
|
|
109 | magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive |
|
|
110 | side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's. |
|
|
111 | (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft). |
|
|
112 | - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit. |
|
|
113 | - update jpsykes csrf article url. |
|
|
114 | - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster! |
|
|
115 | |
|
|
116 | 2.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010 |
|
|
117 | - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser |
|
|
118 | (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka). |
|
|
119 | |
|
|
120 | 2.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009 |
|
|
121 | - big integers could become truncated (based on patch |
|
|
122 | by Strobl Anton). |
6 | - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is |
123 | - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is |
7 | more expected and more true to the documentation. |
124 | more expected and more true to the documentation. |
