3TODO: blessed object tests + maxsize 3 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
4TODO: object filtering (decode_filtered?) 4 - require common sense.

61.4 62.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
7 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
8 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
9 debugged by Martin Evans).
10 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
11 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
12 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
13
142.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
15 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
16 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
17 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
18 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
19 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
20
212.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
22 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
23 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
24 various people).
25 - add t/20_faihu.t.
26
272.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
28 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
29 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
30 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
31 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
32 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
33
342.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
35 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
36 char *.
37 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
38
392.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
40 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
41 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
42 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
43 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
44
452.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
46 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
47 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.
48
492.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
50 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
51 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
52 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
53 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
54
552.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
56 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
57 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
58 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
59 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
60 - add ->incr_reset method.
61
622.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
63 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
64 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
65 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
66 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
67 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
68 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
69 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
70 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
71 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
72 pod directive :/.
73 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
74 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
75
762.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
77 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
78 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
79 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
80 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
81 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
82 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
83 between YAML and JSON.
84 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
85 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
86 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
87 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
88 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
89
902.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
91 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
92 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
93 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
94 comaptible versions in some later release.
95
962.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
97 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
98 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
99 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
100 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
101 instead.
102 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
103 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
104
1051.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
106 - minor doc clarifications.
107 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
108
1091.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
110 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
111 parsers :/.
112
1131.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
114 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
115 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
116 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
117 the testsuite.
118 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
119 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
120
1211.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
122 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
123 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
124 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
125 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
126
1271.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
128 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
129 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
130
1311.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
132 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
133 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
134
1351.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
136 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
137 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
138
1391.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
140 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
141 affects convert_blessed only.
142 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
143 one time too often.
144 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
145 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
146 C compilers (windows...).
147
1481.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
7 - add convert_blessed option. 149 - add convert_blessed setting.
8 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their 150 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
9 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing 151 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
10 the allow_blessed setting. 152 the allow_blessed setting.
153 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
154 settings that specify a callback to be called when
155 all/specific json objects are encountered.
11 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and 156 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
12 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can 157 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
13 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives 158 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
14 a smaller and faster perl hash. 159 a smaller and faster perl hash.
15 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking 160 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
16 in decode_json. 161 in decode_json.
17 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version 162 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
18 of JSON will not have them either. 163 of JSON will not have them either.
164 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
165 into a more complex one.
166 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
167 is not an integer.
168 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
169 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.

201.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007 1711.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
21 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects 172 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
22 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms 173 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
23 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet). 174 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).

150 case the called functions do... stuff. 301 case the called functions do... stuff.
151 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range 302 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range

155 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release". 306 - the "could not sleep without debugging release".
156 it should basically work now, with many bugs as 307 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
157 no production tests have been run yet. 308 no production tests have been run yet.
158 - added more testcases. 309 - added more testcases.
159 - the expected shitload of bugfixes. 310 - the expected shitload of bugfixes.
