31.5 3TODO: maybe detetc and croak on more invalid inputs (e.g. +-inf/nan)

11TODO: Alex Efros, true/false ignore allow_nonref, because internally they are refs
12 - allow literal tabs in strings in relaxed mode (patch by
13 lubo.rintel@gooddata.com).
14 - support "cbor" format in json_xs tool.
15 - support (and fix) calling encode and decode in list context
16 (reported by Вадим Власов).
17
183.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013
19 - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth).
20
213.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013
22 - implemented an object tagging extension (using the
23 Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol).
24 - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation,
25 add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains th
26 whole process.
27 - new setting: allow_tags.
28 - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans.
29 - remove to_json/from_json.
30 - other minor improvements to the documentation.
31
322.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013
33 - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100
34 widely used modules, without a fix in sight because
35 p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore.
36 - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key
37 pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap,
38 to avoid using too much stackspace.
39 - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims).
40
412.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012
42 - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack
43 moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs).
44 - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs.
45 - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats.
46
472.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011
48 - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation.
49
502.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011
51 - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer
52 (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp
53 connection without triggering the max_size limit).
54 - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings
55 (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported
56 and analyzed by Goro Fuji).
57
582.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010
59 - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental
60 parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher).
61 - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs.
62 - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump.
63 - added -f eval support to json_xs.
64
652.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010
66 - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object
67 or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase
68 by Eric Wilhelm).
69
702.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010
71 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
72 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
73 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
74 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
75 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
76 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
77 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
78
792.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
80 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
81 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
82
832.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
84 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
85 by Strobl Anton).
86 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
87 more expected and more true to the documentation.
88
892.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
90 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
91 around the issue.
92 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
93 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
94 - require common sense.
95
962.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
97 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
98 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
99 debugged by Martin Evans).
100 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
101 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
102 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
103
1042.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
105 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
106 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
107 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
108 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
109 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
110
1112.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
112 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
113 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
114 various people).
115 - add t/20_faihu.t.
116
1172.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
118 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
119 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
120 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
121 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
122 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
123
1242.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
125 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
126 char *.
127 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
128
1292.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
130 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
131 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
132 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
133 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
134
1352.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
136 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
137 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.
138
1392.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
140 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
141 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
142 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
143 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
144
1452.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
146 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
147 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
148 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
149 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
150 - add ->incr_reset method.
151
1522.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
153 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
154 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
155 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
156 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
157 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
158 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
159 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
160 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
161 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
162 pod directive :/.
163 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
164 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
165
1662.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
167 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
168 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
169 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
170 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
171 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
172 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
173 between YAML and JSON.
174 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
175 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
176 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
177 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
178 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
179
1802.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
181 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
182 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
183 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
184 comaptible versions in some later release.
185
1862.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
187 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
188 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
189 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
190 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
191 instead.
192 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
193 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
194
1951.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
196 - minor doc clarifications.
197 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
198
1991.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
200 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
201 parsers :/.
202
2031.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
204 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
205 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
206 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
207 the testsuite.
208 - quite a bit of doc updates/extension.
209 - require 5.8.2, as this seems to be the first unicode-stable version.
210
2111.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
