1 Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS

3 TODO: blessed object tests + maxsize
4 1.4
5 - add convert_blessed option.
6 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
7 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
8 the allow_blessed setting.
9 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
10 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
11 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
12 a smaller and faster perl hash.
13 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
14 in decode_json.
15
16 1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
17 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
18 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
19 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
20 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
21 values.
22 - add a reference to
23 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
24 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it just not very expert-friendly,
25 and try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
26 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
27
28 1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
29 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
30 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
31 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
32 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
33 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
34 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
35 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
36
37 1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
38 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
39 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
40 - updated benchmarks.
41
42 1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
43 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
44 the required macros.
45 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
46
47 1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
48 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
49
50 1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
51 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
52 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
53 of unicode.
54 - flag trailing garbage as error.
55 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
56 of characters consumed by a decode.
57 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
58 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
59 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
60
61 1.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
62 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
63 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
64 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
65 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
66 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
67 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
68
69 1.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
70 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
71 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
72 leading to segfaults.
73 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
74 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
75 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
76 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
77 module.
78 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
79 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
80
81 1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
82 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
83 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
84 This has no effect on normal operation.
85
86 1.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
87 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
88 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
89 true and false.
90 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
91 - improve testsuite.
92 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
93 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
94 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
95
96 0.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
97 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
98 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
99 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
100 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
101 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
102 - added a security considerations sections.
103
104 0.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
105 - code cleanup.
106 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
107 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
108 - improve decoding speed of strings by
109 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
110 - further decoding speedups for strings using
111 lots of \u escapes.
112 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
113
114 0.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
115 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
116 versions.
117 - minor documentation fixes.
118 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
119 (reported by Craig Manley).
120 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
121 by Andreas König).
122
123 0.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
124 - documentation updates.
125 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
126 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.
127
128 0.3 Fri Mar 23 19:33:21 CET 2007
129 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara).
130 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
131 (idea by Chris Carline).
132 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
133 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
134 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
135 json texts a bit.
136 - added shrink flag.
137 - when flag methods are called without enable argument
138 they will by default enable their flag.
139 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least
140 with gcc 4).
141 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
142 - clarified some error messages.
143 - error messages now use correct character offset
144 with F_UTF8.
145 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
146 case the called functions do... stuff.
147 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
148 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
149
150 0.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007
151 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release".
152 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
153 no production tests have been run yet.
154 - added more testcases.
155 - the expected shitload of bugfixes.
156 - handle utf8 flag correctly in decode.
157 - fix segfault in decoder.
158 - utf8n_to_uvuni sets retlen to -1, but retlen is an
159 unsigned types (argh).
160 - fix decoding of utf-8 strings.
161 - improved error diagnostics.
162 - fix decoding of 'null'.
163 - fix parsing of empty array/hashes
164 - silence warnings when we prepare the croak message.
165
166 0.1 Thu Mar 22 22:13:43 CET 2007
167 - first release, very untested, basically just to claim
168 the namespace.
169
170 0.01 Thu Mar 22 06:08:12 CET 2007
171 - original version; cloned from Convert-Scalar
