3TODO: maybe use some overload magic to decode true and false into something 32.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
4 not 0 or 1 in perl. or use attached magic? 4 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
5 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
6 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
7 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
8
92.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
10 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
11 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
12 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
13 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
14 - add ->incr_reset method.
15
162.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
17 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
18 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
19 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
20 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
21 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
22 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
23 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
24 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
25 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
26 pod directive :/.
27 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
28 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
29
302.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
31 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
32 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
33 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
34 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
35 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
36 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
37 between YAML and JSON.
38 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
39 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
40 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
41 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
42 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
43
442.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
45 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
46 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
47 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
48 comaptible versions in some later release.
49
502.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
51 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
52 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
53 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
54 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
55 instead.
56 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
57 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
58
591.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
60 - minor doc clarifications.
61 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
62
631.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
64 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
65 parsers :/.
66
671.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
68 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
69 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
70 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
71 the testsuite.
72 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
73 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
74
751.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
76 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
77 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
78 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
79 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
80
811.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
82 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
83 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
84
851.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
86 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
87 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
88
891.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
90 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
91 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
92
931.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
94 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
95 affects convert_blessed only.
96 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
97 one time too often.
98 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
99 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
100 C compilers (windows...).
101
1021.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
103 - add convert_blessed setting.
104 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
105 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
106 the allow_blessed setting.
107 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
108 settings that specify a callback to be called when
109 all/specific json objects are encountered.
110 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
111 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
112 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
113 a smaller and faster perl hash.
114 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
115 in decode_json.
116 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
117 of JSON will not have them either.
118 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
119 into a more complex one.
120 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
121 is not an integer.
122 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
123 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
124
1251.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
126 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
127 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
128 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
129 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
130 values.
131 - add a reference to
132 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
133 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
134 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
135 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
136
1371.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
138 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
139 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
140 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
141 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
142 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
143 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
144 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
145
1461.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
147 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
148 - implement a number of ยต-optimisations.
149 - updated benchmarks.
