3TODO: document conversion algorithm 31.44
4 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
5 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
4 6
50.3 71.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
8 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
9 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
10
111.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
12 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
13 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
14
151.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
16 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
17 affects convert_blessed only.
18 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
19 one time too often.
20 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
21 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
22 C compilers (windows...).
23
241.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
25 - add convert_blessed setting.
26 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
27 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
28 the allow_blessed setting.
29 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
30 settings that specify a callback to be called when
31 all/specific json objects are encountered.
32 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
33 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
34 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
35 a smaller and faster perl hash.
36 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
37 in decode_json.
38 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
39 of JSON will not have them either.
40 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
41 into a more complex one.
42 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
43 is not an integer.
44 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
45 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
46
471.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
48 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
49 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
50 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
51 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
52 values.
53 - add a reference to
54 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
55 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
56 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
57 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
58
591.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
60 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
61 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
62 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
63 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
64 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
65 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
66 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
67
681.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
69 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
70 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
71 - updated benchmarks.
72
731.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
74 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
75 the required macros.
76 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
77
781.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
79 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
80
811.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
82 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
83 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
84 of unicode.
85 - flag trailing garbage as error.
86 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
87 of characters consumed by a decode.
88 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
89 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
90 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
91
921.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
93 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
94 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
95 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
96 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
97 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
98 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
99
1001.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
101 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
102 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
103 leading to segfaults.
104 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
105 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
106 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
107 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
108 module.
109 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
110 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
111
1121.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
113 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
114 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
115 This has no effect on normal operation.
116
1171.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
118 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
119 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
120 true and false.
121 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
122 - improve testsuite.
123 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
124 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
125 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
126
1270.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
128 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
129 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
130 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
131 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
132 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
133 - added a security considerations sections.
134
1350.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
136 - code cleanup.
137 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
138 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
139 - improve decoding speed of strings by
140 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
141 - further decoding speedups for strings using
142 lots of \u escapes.
143 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
144
1450.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
146 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
147 versions.
148 - minor documentation fixes.
149 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
150 (reported by Craig Manley).
151 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
152 by Andreas König).
153
1540.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
155 - documentation updates.
156 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
157 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.
158
1590.3 Fri Mar 23 19:33:21 CET 2007
6 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara). 160 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara).
7 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules 161 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
8 (idea by Chris Carline). 162 (idea by Chris Carline).
163 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
164 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
9 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created 165 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
10 json texts a bit. 166 json texts a bit.
11 - added shrink flag. 167 - added shrink flag.
12 - when flag methods are called without enable argument 168 - when flag methods are called without enable argument
13 they will by default enable their flag. 169 they will by default enable their flag.
14 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least 170 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least
15 with gcc 4). 171 with gcc 4).
172 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
173 - clarified some error messages.
174 - error messages now use correct character offset
175 with F_UTF8.
176 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
177 case the called functions do... stuff.
178 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
179 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
16 180
170.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007 1810.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007
18 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release". 182 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release".
19 it should basically work now, with many bugs as 183 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
20 no production tests have been run yet. 184 no production tests have been run yet.
