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 - update documentation here and there, add a large section
4 not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic? 4 about utf/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration.
5TODO: get rid of dynamic arrays to support so-called C compilers 5 - minor speed enhancements when encoding non-ascii data.
6 by fucking microsoft that do not do C. argl, snprintf is also 6 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
7 missing. 7 between YAML and JSON.
8 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
9 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.

112.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
12 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
13 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
14 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
15 comaptible versions in some later release.
16
172.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
18 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
19 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
20 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
21 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
22 instead.
23 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
24 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
25
261.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
27 - minor doc clarifications.
28 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
29
301.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
31 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
32 parsers :/.
33
341.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
35 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
36 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
37 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
38 the testsuite.
39 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
40 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
41
421.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
43 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
44 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
45 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
46 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
47
481.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
49 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
50 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
51
521.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
53 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
54 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
55
561.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
57 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
58 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
59
601.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
61 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
62 affects convert_blessed only.
63 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
64 one time too often.
65 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
66 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
67 C compilers (windows...).
68
691.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
70 - add convert_blessed setting.
71 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
72 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
73 the allow_blessed setting.
74 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
75 settings that specify a callback to be called when
76 all/specific json objects are encountered.
77 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
78 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
79 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
80 a smaller and faster perl hash.
81 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
82 in decode_json.
83 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
84 of JSON will not have them either.
85 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
86 into a more complex one.
87 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
88 is not an integer.
89 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
90 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
91
921.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
93 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
94 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
95 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
96 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
97 values.
98 - add a reference to
99 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
100 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
101 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
102 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
103
1041.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
105 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
106 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
107 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
108 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
109 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
110 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
111 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
112
1131.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
114 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
115 - implement a number of ยต-optimisations.
116 - updated benchmarks.
117
1181.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
119 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
120 the required macros.
121 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
8 122
91.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007 1231.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
10 - character offset reported for trailing garbage is random. 124 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.

121.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007 1261.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
13 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!). 127 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
14 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset 128 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
15 of unicode. 129 of unicode.
