3TODO: document conversion algorithm 31.5
4 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
5 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
4 6
50.3 71.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
8 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
9 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
10
111.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
12 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
13 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
14
151.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
16 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
17 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
18
191.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
20 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
21 affects convert_blessed only.
22 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
23 one time too often.
24 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
25 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
26 C compilers (windows...).
27
281.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
29 - add convert_blessed setting.
30 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
31 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
32 the allow_blessed setting.
33 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
34 settings that specify a callback to be called when
35 all/specific json objects are encountered.
36 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
37 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
38 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
39 a smaller and faster perl hash.
40 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
41 in decode_json.
42 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
43 of JSON will not have them either.
44 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
45 into a more complex one.
46 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
47 is not an integer.
48 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
49 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
50
511.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
52 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
53 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
54 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
55 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
56 values.
57 - add a reference to
58 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
59 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
60 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
61 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
62
631.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
64 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
65 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
66 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
67 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
68 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
69 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
70 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
71
721.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
73 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
74 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
75 - updated benchmarks.
76
771.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
78 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
79 the required macros.
80 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
81
821.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
83 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
84
851.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
86 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
87 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
88 of unicode.
89 - flag trailing garbage as error.
90 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
91 of characters consumed by a decode.
92 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
93 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
94 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
95
961.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
97 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
98 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
99 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
100 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
101 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
102 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
103
1041.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
105 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
106 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
107 leading to segfaults.
108 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
109 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
110 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
111 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
112 module.
113 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
114 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
115
1161.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
117 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
118 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
119 This has no effect on normal operation.
120
1211.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
122 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
123 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
124 true and false.
125 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
126 - improve testsuite.
127 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
128 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
129 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
130
1310.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
132 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
133 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
134 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
135 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
136 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
137 - added a security considerations sections.
138
1390.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
140 - code cleanup.
141 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
142 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
143 - improve decoding speed of strings by
144 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
145 - further decoding speedups for strings using
146 lots of \u escapes.
147 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
148
1490.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
150 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
151 versions.
152 - minor documentation fixes.
153 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
154 (reported by Craig Manley).
155 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
156 by Andreas König).
157
1580.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
159 - documentation updates.
160 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
161 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.
162
1630.3 Fri Mar 23 19:33:21 CET 2007
6 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara). 164 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara).
7 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules 165 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
8 (idea by Chris Carline). 166 (idea by Chris Carline).
167 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
168 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
9 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created 169 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
10 json texts a bit. 170 json texts a bit.
11 - added shrink flag. 171 - added shrink flag.
12 - when flag methods are called without enable argument 172 - when flag methods are called without enable argument
13 they will by default enable their flag. 173 they will by default enable their flag.
14 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least 174 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least
15 with gcc 4). 175 with gcc 4).
176 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
177 - clarified some error messages.
178 - error messages now use correct character offset
179 with F_UTF8.
180 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
181 case the called functions do... stuff.
182 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
183 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
16 184
170.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007 1850.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007
18 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release". 186 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release".
19 it should basically work now, with many bugs as 187 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
20 no production tests have been run yet. 188 no production tests have been run yet.
