1 Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS
2
3 1.5
4 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
5 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
6
7 1.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
8 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
9 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
10
11 1.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
12 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
13 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
14
15 1.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
16 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
17 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
18
19 1.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
20 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
21 affects convert_blessed only.
22 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
23 one time too often.
24 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
25 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
26 C compilers (windows...).
27
28 1.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
29 - add convert_blessed setting.
30 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
31 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
32 the allow_blessed setting.
33 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
34 settings that specify a callback to be called when
35 all/specific json objects are encountered.
36 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
37 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
38 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
39 a smaller and faster perl hash.
40 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
41 in decode_json.
42 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
43 of JSON will not have them either.
44 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
45 into a more complex one.
46 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
47 is not an integer.
48 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
49 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
50
51 1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
52 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
53 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
54 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
55 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
56 values.
57 - add a reference to
58 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
59 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
60 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
61 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
62
63 1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
64 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
65 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
66 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
67 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
68 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
69 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
70 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
71
72 1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
73 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
74 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
75 - updated benchmarks.
76
77 1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
78 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
79 the required macros.
80 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
81
82 1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
83 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
84
85 1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
86 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
87 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
88 of unicode.
89 - flag trailing garbage as error.
90 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
91 of characters consumed by a decode.
92 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
93 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
94 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
95
96 1.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
97 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
98 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
99 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
100 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
101 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
102 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
103
104 1.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
105 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
106 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
107 leading to segfaults.
108 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
109 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
110 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
111 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
112 module.
113 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
114 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
115
116 1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
117 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
118 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
119 This has no effect on normal operation.
120
121 1.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
122 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
123 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
124 true and false.
125 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
126 - improve testsuite.
127 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
128 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
129 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
130
131 0.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
132 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
133 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
134 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
135 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
136 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
137 - added a security considerations sections.
138
139 0.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
140 - code cleanup.
141 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
142 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
143 - improve decoding speed of strings by
144 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
145 - further decoding speedups for strings using
146 lots of \u escapes.
147 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
148
149 0.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
150 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
151 versions.
152 - minor documentation fixes.
153 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
154 (reported by Craig Manley).
155 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
156 by Andreas König).
157
158 0.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
159 - documentation updates.
160 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
161 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.
162
163 0.3 Fri Mar 23 19:33:21 CET 2007
164 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara).
165 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
166 (idea by Chris Carline).
167 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
168 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
169 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
170 json texts a bit.
171 - added shrink flag.
172 - when flag methods are called without enable argument
173 they will by default enable their flag.
174 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least
175 with gcc 4).
176 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
177 - clarified some error messages.
178 - error messages now use correct character offset
179 with F_UTF8.
180 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
181 case the called functions do... stuff.
182 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
183 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
184
185 0.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007
186 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release".
187 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
188 no production tests have been run yet.
189 - added more testcases.
190 - the expected shitload of bugfixes.
191 - handle utf8 flag correctly in decode.
192 - fix segfault in decoder.
193 - utf8n_to_uvuni sets retlen to -1, but retlen is an
194 unsigned types (argh).
195 - fix decoding of utf-8 strings.
196 - improved error diagnostics.
197 - fix decoding of 'null'.
198 - fix parsing of empty array/hashes
199 - silence warnings when we prepare the croak message.
200
201 0.1 Thu Mar 22 22:13:43 CET 2007
202 - first release, very untested, basically just to claim
203 the namespace.
204
205 0.01 Thu Mar 22 06:08:12 CET 2007
206 - original version; cloned from Convert-Scalar
207
