2 2
3TODO: maybe use some overload magic to decode true and false into something 3 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
4 not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic? 4 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
5 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if its the first
6 pod directive :/.
7
82.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
9 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
10 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
11 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
12 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
13 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
14 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
15 between YAML and JSON.
16 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
17 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
18 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
19 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
20 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
21
222.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
23 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
24 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
25 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
26 comaptible versions in some later release.
27
282.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
29 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
30 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
31 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
32 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
33 instead.
34 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
35 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
36
371.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
38 - minor doc clarifications.
39 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
40
411.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
42 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
43 parsers :/.
44
451.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
46 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
47 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
48 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
49 the testsuite.
50 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
51 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
52
531.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
54 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
55 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
56 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
57 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
58
591.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
60 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
61 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
62
631.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
64 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
65 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
66
671.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
68 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
69 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
70
711.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
72 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
73 affects convert_blessed only.
74 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
75 one time too often.
76 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
77 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
78 C compilers (windows...).
79
801.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
81 - add convert_blessed setting.
82 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
83 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
84 the allow_blessed setting.
85 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
86 settings that specify a callback to be called when
87 all/specific json objects are encountered.
88 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
89 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
90 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
91 a smaller and faster perl hash.
92 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
93 in decode_json.
94 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
95 of JSON will not have them either.
96 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
97 into a more complex one.
98 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
99 is not an integer.
100 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
101 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
102
1031.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
104 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
105 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
106 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
107 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
108 values.
109 - add a reference to
110 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
111 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
112 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
113 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
114
1151.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
116 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
117 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
118 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
119 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
120 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
121 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
122 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
123
1241.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
125 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
126 - implement a number of ยต-optimisations.
127 - updated benchmarks.
128
1291.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
130 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
131 the required macros.
132 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
133
1341.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
135 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
136
1371.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
138 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
139 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
140 of unicode.
141 - flag trailing garbage as error.
142 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
143 of characters consumed by a decode.
144 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
145 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
146 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
147
1481.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
149 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
150 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
151 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
152 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
153 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
154 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
155
1561.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
157 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
158 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
159 leading to segfaults.
160 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
161 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
162 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
163 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
164 module.
165 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
166 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
167
1681.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
169 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
170 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
171 This has no effect on normal operation.

61.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007 1731.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
7 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version. 174 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
8 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON 175 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
9 true and false. 176 true and false.
10 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros. 177 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
11 - improve testsuite. 178 - improve testsuite.
12 - half the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it 179 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
13 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not 180 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
14 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd). 181 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).

160.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007 1830.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
17 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes. 184 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
