2 2
3TODO: document conversion algorithm 31.51
4 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
5 - apperently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
6 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
7 the testsuite.
8 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
9 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
4 10
50.3 111.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
12 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
13 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
14 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
15 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
16
171.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
18 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
19 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
20
211.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
22 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
23 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
24
251.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
26 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
27 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
28
291.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
30 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
31 affects convert_blessed only.
32 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
33 one time too often.
34 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
35 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
36 C compilers (windows...).
37
381.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
39 - add convert_blessed setting.
40 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
41 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
42 the allow_blessed setting.
43 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
44 settings that specify a callback to be called when
45 all/specific json objects are encountered.
46 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
47 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
48 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
49 a smaller and faster perl hash.
50 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
51 in decode_json.
52 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
53 of JSON will not have them either.
54 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
55 into a more complex one.
56 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
57 is not an integer.
58 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
59 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
60
611.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
62 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
63 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
64 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
65 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
66 values.
67 - add a reference to
68 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
69 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
70 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
71 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
72
731.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
74 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
75 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
76 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
77 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
78 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
79 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
80 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
81
821.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
83 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
84 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
85 - updated benchmarks.
86
871.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
88 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
89 the required macros.
90 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
91
921.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
93 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
94
951.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
96 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
97 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
98 of unicode.
99 - flag trailing garbage as error.
100 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
101 of characters consumed by a decode.
102 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
103 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
104 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
105
1061.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
107 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
108 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
109 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
110 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
111 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
112 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
113
1141.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
115 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
116 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
117 leading to segfaults.
118 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
119 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
120 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
121 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
122 module.
123 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
124 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
125
1261.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
127 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
128 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
129 This has no effect on normal operation.
130
1311.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
132 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
133 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
134 true and false.
135 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
136 - improve testsuite.
137 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
138 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
139 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
140
1410.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
142 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
143 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
144 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
145 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
146 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
147 - added a security considerations sections.
148
1490.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
150 - code cleanup.
151 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
152 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
153 - improve decoding speed of strings by
154 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
155 - further decoding speedups for strings using
156 lots of \u escapes.
157 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
158
1590.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
160 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
161 versions.
162 - minor documentation fixes.
163 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
164 (reported by Craig Manley).
165 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
166 by Andreas König).
167
1680.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
169 - documentation updates.
170 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
171 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.

7 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules 175 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
8 (idea by Chris Carline). 176 (idea by Chris Carline).
177 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
178 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
9 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created 179 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
10 json texts a bit. 180 json texts a bit.
11 - added shrink flag. 181 - added shrink flag.

13 they will by default enable their flag. 183 they will by default enable their flag.

16 - added a test that covers lots of different characters. 186 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
17 - clarified some error messages. 187 - clarified some error messages.

190 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
191 case the called functions do... stuff.
192 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
193 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
