3TODO: document conversion algorithm 31.5
4 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
5 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
6 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
7 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
8 - decoding speed was slightly improved.
4 9
50.3 101.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
11 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
12 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
13
141.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
15 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
16 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
17
181.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
19 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
20 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
21
221.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
23 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
24 affects convert_blessed only.
25 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
26 one time too often.
27 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
28 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
29 C compilers (windows...).
30
311.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
32 - add convert_blessed setting.
33 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
34 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
35 the allow_blessed setting.
36 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
37 settings that specify a callback to be called when
38 all/specific json objects are encountered.
39 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
40 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
41 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
42 a smaller and faster perl hash.
43 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
44 in decode_json.
45 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
46 of JSON will not have them either.
47 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
48 into a more complex one.
49 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
50 is not an integer.
51 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
52 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
53
541.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
55 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
56 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
57 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
58 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
59 values.
60 - add a reference to
61 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
62 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
63 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
64 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
65
661.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
67 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
68 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
69 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
70 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
71 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
72 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
73 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
74
751.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
76 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
77 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
78 - updated benchmarks.
79
801.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
81 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
82 the required macros.
83 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
84
851.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
86 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
87
881.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
89 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
90 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
91 of unicode.
92 - flag trailing garbage as error.
93 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
94 of characters consumed by a decode.
95 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
96 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
97 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
98
991.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
100 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
101 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
102 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
103 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
104 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
105 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
106
1071.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
108 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
109 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
110 leading to segfaults.
111 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
112 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
113 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
114 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
115 module.
116 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
117 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
118
1191.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
120 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
121 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
122 This has no effect on normal operation.
123
1241.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
125 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
126 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
127 true and false.
128 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
129 - improve testsuite.
130 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
131 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
132 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
133
1340.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
135 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
136 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
137 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
138 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
139 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
140 - added a security considerations sections.
141
1420.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
143 - code cleanup.
144 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
145 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
146 - improve decoding speed of strings by
147 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
148 - further decoding speedups for strings using
149 lots of \u escapes.
150 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
151
1520.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
153 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
154 versions.
155 - minor documentation fixes.
156 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
157 (reported by Craig Manley).
158 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
159 by Andreas König).
160
1610.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
162 - documentation updates.
163 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
164 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.

170 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
171 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
9 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created 172 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created

16 - added a test that covers lots of different characters. 179 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
17 - clarified some error messages. 180 - clarified some error messages.

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