4 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
5 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
6 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
7 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
8 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
9 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
10 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
11
122.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
13 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
14 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
15
162.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
17 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
18 by Strobl Anton).
19 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
20 more expected and more true to the documentation.
21
222.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
23 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
24 around the issue.
25 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
26 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
27 - require common sense.
28
292.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
30 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
31 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
32 debugged by Martin Evans).
33 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
34 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
35 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
36
372.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
38 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
39 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
40 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
41 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
42 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
43
442.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
45 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
46 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
47 various people).
48 - add t/20_faihu.t.
49
502.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
51 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
52 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
53 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
54 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
55 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
56
572.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
58 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
59 char *.
60 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
61
622.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
63 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
64 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
65 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
66 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
67
682.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
69 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
70 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.
71
722.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
73 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
74 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
75 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
76 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
77
782.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
79 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
80 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
81 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
82 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
83 - add ->incr_reset method.
84
852.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
86 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
87 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
88 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
89 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
90 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
91 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
92 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
93 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
94 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
95 pod directive :/.
96 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
97 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
98
992.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
100 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
101 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
102 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
103 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
104 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
105 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
106 between YAML and JSON.
107 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
108 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
109 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
110 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
111 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
112
1132.01 Wed Dec 5 11:40:28 CET 2007
114 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: to_json and from_json have been
115 renamed to encode_json/decode_json for JSON.pm compatibility.
116 The old functions croak and might be replaced by JSON.pm
117 comaptible versions in some later release.
118
1192.0 Tue Dec 4 11:30:46 CET 2007
120 - this is supposed to be the first version of JSON::XS
121 compatible with version 2.0+ of the JSON module.
122 Using the JSON module as frontend to JSON::XS should be
123 as fast as using JSON::XS directly, so consider using it
124 instead.
125 - added get_* methods for all "simple" options.
126 - make JSON::XS subclassable.
127
1281.53 Tue Nov 13 23:58:33 CET 2007
129 - minor doc clarifications.
130 - fixed many doc typos (patch by Thomas L. Shinnick).
131
1321.52 Mon Oct 15 03:22:06 CEST 2007
133 - remove =encoding pod directive again, it confuses too many pod
134 parsers :/.
135
1361.51 Sat Oct 13 03:55:56 CEST 2007
4 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled. 137 - encode empty arrays/hashes in a compact way when pretty is enabled.
5 - apperently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the 138 - apparently JSON::XS was used to find some bugs in the
6 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to 139 JSON_checker testsuite, so add (the corrected) JSON_checker tests to
7 the testsuite. 140 the testsuite.
