2 2
3TODO: maybe use some overload magic to decode true and false into something 3work around perl bug
4 not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic? 4 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
5TODO: get rid of dynamic arrays to support so-called C compilers 5 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
6 by fucking microsoft that do not do C. argl, snprintf is also 6 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
7 missing. 7 - add ->incr_reset method.

92.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
10 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
11 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
12 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
13 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
14 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
15 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
16 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
17 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
18 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
19 pod directive :/.
20 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
21 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
22
232.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
24 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
25 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
26 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
27 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
28 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
29 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
30 between YAML and JSON.
31 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
32 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
33 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
34 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
35 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
36
372.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
38 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
39 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
40 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
41 comaptible versions in some later release.
42
432.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
44 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
45 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
46 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
47 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
48 instead.
49 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
50 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
51
521.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
53 - minor doc clarifications.
54 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
55
561.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
57 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
58 parsers :/.
59
601.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
61 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
62 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
63 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
64 the testsuite.
65 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
66 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
67
681.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
69 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
70 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
71 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
72 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
73
741.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
75 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
76 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
77
781.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
79 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
80 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
81
821.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
83 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
84 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
85
861.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
87 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
88 affects convert_blessed only.
89 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
90 one time too often.
91 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
92 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
93 C compilers (windows...).
94
951.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
96 - add convert_blessed setting.
97 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
98 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
99 the allow_blessed setting.
100 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
101 settings that specify a callback to be called when
102 all/specific json objects are encountered.
103 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
104 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
105 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
106 a smaller and faster perl hash.
107 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
108 in decode_json.
109 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
110 of JSON will not have them either.
111 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
112 into a more complex one.
113 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
114 is not an integer.
115 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
116 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
117
1181.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
119 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
120 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
121 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
122 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
123 values.
124 - add a reference to
125 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
126 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
127 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
128 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
129
1301.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
131 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
132 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
133 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
134 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
135 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
136 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
137 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
138
1391.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
140 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
141 - implement a number of ยต-optimisations.
142 - updated benchmarks.
143
1441.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
145 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
146 the required macros.
147 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
148
1491.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
150 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
151
1521.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
153 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
154 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
155 of unicode.
156 - flag trailing garbage as error.
157 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
158 of characters consumed by a decode.
159 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
160 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
161 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.

91.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007 1631.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007

101 no production tests have been run yet. 255 no production tests have been run yet.
