3TODO: maybe detetc and croak on more invalid inputs (e.g. +-inf/nan)
4TODO: maybe avoid the reblessing and better support readonly objects.
5TODO: http://stevehanov.ca/blog/index.php?id=104 compression

7TODO: how to cope with tagged values and standard json decoders
8TODO: work around <=5.16 bugs (Reini Urban)
93.01 Tue Oct 29 16:55:15 CET 2013
10 - backport to perls < 5.18 (reported by Paul Howarth).
11
123.0 Tue Oct 29 01:35:37 CET 2013
13 - implemented an object tagging extension (using the
14 Types::Serialiser serialisation protocol).
15 - reworked the documentation regarding object serialisation,
16 add a new OBJECT SERIALISATION section that explains the
17 whole process.
18 - new setting: allow_tags.
19 - switch to Types::Serialiser booleans.
20 - remove to_json/from_json.
21 - other minor improvements to the documentation.
22
232.34 Thu May 23 11:30:34 CEST 2013
24 - work around bugs in perl 5.18 breaking more than 100
25 widely used modules, without a fix in sight because
26 p5pers don't care about CPAN anymore.
27 - when canonicalising, only allocate up to 64 hash key
28 pointers on the stack. for larger hashes, use the heap,
29 to avoid using too much stackspace.
30 - discuss the problem with setlocale (reported by a few victims).
31
322.33 Wed Aug 1 21:03:52 CEST 2012
33 - internal encode/decode XS wrappers did not expect stack
34 moves caused by callbacks (analyzed and testcase by Jesse Luehrs).
35 - add bencode as to/from option in bin/json_xs.
36 - add -e option to json_xs, and none and string in/out formats.
37
382.32 Thu Aug 11 19:06:38 CEST 2011
39 - fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation.
40
412.31 Wed Jul 27 17:53:05 CEST 2011
42 - don't accumulate initial whitespace in the incremental buffer
43 (this can be useful to allow whitespace-keepalive on a tcp
44 connection without triggering the max_size limit).
45 - properly croak on some invalid inputs that are not strings
46 (e.g. undef) when trying to decode a json text (reported
47 and analyzed by Goro Fuji).
48
492.3 Wed Aug 18 01:26:47 CEST 2010
50 - make sure decoder doesn't change the decoding in the incremental
51 parser (testcase provided by Hendrik Schumacher).
52 - applied patch by DaTa for Data::Dumper support in json_xs.
53 - added -t dump support to json_xs, using Data::Dump.
54 - added -f eval support to json_xs.
55
562.29 Wed Mar 17 02:39:12 CET 2010
57 - fix a memory leak when callbacks set using filter_json_object
58 or filter_json_single_key_object were called (great testcase
59 by Eric Wilhelm).
60
612.28 Thu Mar 11 20:30:46 CET 2010
62 - implement our own atof function - perl's can be orders of
63 magnitudes slower than even the system one. on the positive
64 side, ours seems to be more exact in general than perl's.
65 (testcase provided by Tim Meadowcroft).
66 - clarify floating point conversion issues a bit.
67 - update jpsykes csrf article url.
68 - updated benchmark section - JSON::PP became much faster!
69
702.27 Thu Jan 7 07:35:08 CET 2010
71 - support relaxed option inside the incremental parser
72 (testcase provided by IKEGAMI via Makamaka).
73
742.26 Sat Oct 10 03:26:19 CEST 2009
75 - big integers could become truncated (based on patch
76 by Strobl Anton).
77 - output format change: indent now adds a final newline, which is
78 more expected and more true to the documentation.
79
802.25 Sat Aug 8 12:04:41 CEST 2009
81 - the perl debugger completely breaks lvalue subs - try to work
82 around the issue.
83 - ignore RMAGICAL hashes w.r.t. CANONICAL.
84 - try to work around a possible char signedness issue on aix.
85 - require common sense.
86
872.24 Sat May 30 08:25:45 CEST 2009
88 - the incremental parser did not update its parse offset
89 pointer correctly when parsing utf8-strings (nicely
90 debugged by Martin Evans).
91 - appending a non-utf8-string to the incremental parser
92 in utf8 mode failed to upgrade the string.
93 - wording of parse error messages has been improved.
94
952.232 Sun Feb 22 11:12:25 CET 2009
96 - use an exponential algorithm to extend strings, to
97 help platforms with bad or abysmal==windows memory
98 allocater performance, at the expense of some memory
99 wastage (use shrink to recover this extra memory).
100 (nicely analysed by Dmitry Karasik).
101
1022.2311 Thu Feb 19 02:12:54 CET 2009
103 - add a section "JSON and ECMAscript" to explain some
104 incompatibilities between the two (problem was noted by
105 various people).
106 - add t/20_faihu.t.
107
1082.231 Thu Nov 20 04:59:08 CET 2008
109 - work around 5.10.0 magic bugs where manipulating magic values
110 (such as $1) would permanently damage them as perl would
111 ignore the magicalness, by making a full copy of the string,
112 reported by Dmitry Karasik.
113 - work around spurious warnings under older perl 5.8's.
114
1152.23 Mon Sep 29 05:08:29 CEST 2008
116 - fix a compilation problem when perl is not using char * as, well,
117 char *.
118 - use PL_hexdigit in favour of rolling our own.
119
1202.2222 Sun Jul 20 18:49:00 CEST 2008
121 - same game again, broken 5.10 finds yet another assertion
122 failure, and the workaround causes additional runtime warnings.
123 Work around the next assertion AND the warning. 5.10 seriously
124 needs to adjust it's attitude against working code.
125
1262.222 Sat Jul 19 06:15:34 CEST 2008
127 - you work around one -DDEBUGGING assertion bug in perl 5.10
128 just to hit the next one. work around this one, too.
129
1302.22 Tue Jul 15 13:26:51 CEST 2008
131 - allow higher nesting levels in incremental parser.
132 - error out earlier in some cases in the incremental parser
133 (as suggested by Yuval Kogman).
134 - improve incr-parser test (Yuval Kogman).
135
1362.21 Tue Jun 3 08:43:23 CEST 2008
137 - (hopefully) work around a perl 5.10 bug with -DDEBUGGING.
138 - remove the experimental status of the incremental parser interface.
139 - move =encoding around again, to avoid bugs with search.cpan.org.
140 when can we finally have utf-8 in pod???
141 - add ->incr_reset method.
142
1432.2 Wed Apr 16 20:37:25 CEST 2008
144 - lifted the log2 rounding restriction of max_depth and max_size.
145 - make booleans mutable by creating a copy instead of handing out
146 the same scalar (reported by pasha sadri).
147 - added support for incremental json parsing (still EXPERIMENTAL).
148 - implemented and added a json_xs command line utility that can convert
149 from/to a number of serialisation formats - tell me if you need more.
150 - implement allow_unknown/get_allow_unknown methods.
151 - fixed documentation of max_depth w.r.t. higher and equal.
152 - moved down =encoding directive a bit, too much breaks if it's the first
153 pod directive :/.
154 - removed documentation section on other modules, it became somewhat
155 outdated and is nowadays mostly of historical interest.
156
1572.1 Wed Mar 19 23:23:18 CET 2008
3 - update documentation here and there, add a large section 158 - update documentation here and there: add a large section
4 about utf/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration. 159 about utf8/latin1/ascii flags, add a security consideration
160 and extend and clarify the JSON and YAML section.
5 - minor speed enhancements when encoding non-ascii data. 161 - medium speed enhancements when encoding/decoding non-ascii chars.
162 - minor speedup in number encoding case.
6 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities 163 - extend and clarify the section on incompatibilities
7 between YAML and JSON. 164 between YAML and JSON.
8 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc. 165 - switch to static inline from just inline when using gcc.
9 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it. 166 - add =encoding utf-8 to the manpage, now that perl 5.10 supports it.
167 - fix some issues with UV to JSON conversion of unknown impact.
168 - published the yahoo locals search result used in benchmarks as the
169 original url changes so comparison is impossible.
