1Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS 1Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS
2 2
3TODO: maybe use some overload magic to decode true and false into something 3 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if its the first
4 not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic? 4 pod directive :/.
5TODO: get rid of dynamic arrays to support so-called C compilers 5
6 by fucking microsoft that do not do C. argl, snprintf is also 62.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
7 missing. 7 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
8 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
9 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
10 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
11 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
12 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
13 between YAML and JSON.
14 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
15 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
16 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
17 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
18 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
19
202.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
21 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
22 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
23 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
24 comaptible versions in some later release.
25
262.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
27 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
28 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
29 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
30 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
31 instead.
32 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
33 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
34
351.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
36 - minor doc clarifications.
37 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
38
391.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
40 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
41 parsers :/.
42
431.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
44 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
45 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
46 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
47 the testsuite.
48 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
49 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
50
511.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
52 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
53 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
54 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
55 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
56
571.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
58 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
59 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
60
611.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
62 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
63 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
64
651.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
66 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
67 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
68
691.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
70 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
71 affects convert_blessed only.
72 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
73 one time too often.
74 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
75 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
76 C compilers (windows...).
77
781.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
79 - add convert_blessed setting.
80 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
81 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
82 the allow_blessed setting.
83 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
84 settings that specify a callback to be called when
85 all/specific json objects are encountered.
86 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
87 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
88 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
89 a smaller and faster perl hash.
90 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
91 in decode_json.
92 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
93 of JSON will not have them either.
94 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
95 into a more complex one.
96 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
97 is not an integer.
98 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
99 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
100
1011.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
102 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
103 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
104 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
105 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
106 values.
107 - add a reference to
108 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
109 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
110 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
111 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
112
1131.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
114 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
115 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
116 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
117 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
118 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
119 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
120 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
121
1221.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
123 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
124 - implement a number of ยต-optimisations.
125 - updated benchmarks.
126
1271.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
128 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
129 the required macros.
130 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
131
1321.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
133 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
134
1351.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
136 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
137 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
138 of unicode.
139 - flag trailing garbage as error.
140 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
141 of characters consumed by a decode.
142 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
143 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
144 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
8 145
91.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007 1461.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
10 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help 147 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
11 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there. 148 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
12 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken 149 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
