1 Revision history for Perl extension JSON::XS
2
3 - add JSON_checker tests to testsuite.
4
5 1.5 Tue Aug 28 04:05:38 CEST 2007
6 - add support for tied hashes, based on ideas and testcase by
7 Marcus Holland-Moritz.
8 - implemented relaxed parsing mode where some extensions are being
9 accepted. generation is still JSON-only.
10
11 1.44 Wed Aug 22 01:02:44 CEST 2007
12 - very experimental process-emulation support, slowing everything down.
13 the horribly broken perl threads are still not supported - YMMV.
14
15 1.43 Thu Jul 26 13:26:37 CEST 2007
16 - convert big json numbers exclusively consisting of digits to NV
17 only when there is no loss of precision, otherwise to string.
18
19 1.42 Tue Jul 24 00:51:18 CEST 2007
20 - fix a crash caused by not handling missing array elements
21 (report and testcase by Jay Kuri).
22
23 1.41 Tue Jul 10 18:21:44 CEST 2007
24 - fix compilation with NDEBUG (assert side-effect),
25 affects convert_blessed only.
26 - fix a bug in decode filters calling ENTER; SAVETMPS;
27 one time too often.
28 - catch a typical error in TO_JSON methods.
29 - antique-ised XS.xs again to work with outdated
30 C compilers (windows...).
31
32 1.4 Mon Jul 2 10:06:30 CEST 2007
33 - add convert_blessed setting.
34 - encode did not catch all blessed objects, encoding their
35 contents in most cases. This has been fixed by introducing
36 the allow_blessed setting.
37 - added filter_json_object and filter_json_single_key_object
38 settings that specify a callback to be called when
39 all/specific json objects are encountered.
40 - assume that most object keys are simple ascii words and
41 optimise this case, penalising the general case. This can
42 speed up decoding by 30% in typical cases and gives
43 a smaller and faster perl hash.
44 - implemented simpleminded, optional resource size checking
45 in decode_json.
46 - remove objToJson/jsonToObj aliases, as the next version
47 of JSON will not have them either.
48 - bit the bullet and converted the very simple json object
49 into a more complex one.
50 - work around a bug where perl wrongly claims an integer
51 is not an integer.
52 - unbundle JSON::XS::Boolean into own pm file so Storable
53 and similar modules can resolve the overloading when thawing.
54
55 1.3 Sun Jun 24 01:55:02 CEST 2007
56 - make JSON::XS::true and false special overloaded objects
57 and return those instead of 1 and 0 for those json atoms
58 (JSON::PP compatibility is NOT achieved yet).
59 - add JSON::XS::is_bool predicate to test for those special
60 values.
61 - add a reference to
62 http://jpsykes.com/47/practical-csrf-and-json-security.
63 - removed require 5.8.8 again, it is just not very expert-friendly.
64 Also try to be more compatible with slightly older versions,
65 which are not recommended (because they are buggy).
66
67 1.24 Mon Jun 11 05:40:49 CEST 2007
68 - added informative section on JSON-as-YAML.
69 - get rid of some c99-isms again.
70 - localise dec->cur in decode_str, speeding up
71 string decoding considerably (>15% on my amd64 + gcc).
72 - increased SHORT_STRING_LEN to 16kb: stack space is
73 usually plenty, and this actually saves memory
74 when !shrinking as short strings will fit perfectly.
75
76 1.23 Wed Jun 6 20:13:06 CEST 2007
77 - greatly improved small integer encoding and decoding speed.
78 - implement a number of µ-optimisations.
79 - updated benchmarks.
80
81 1.22 Thu May 24 00:07:25 CEST 2007
82 - require 5.8.8 explicitly as older perls do not seem to offer
83 the required macros.
84 - possibly made it compile on so-called C compilers by microsoft.
85
86 1.21 Wed May 9 18:40:32 CEST 2007
87 - character offset reported for trailing garbage was random.
88
89 1.2 Wed May 9 18:35:01 CEST 2007
90 - decode did not work with magical scalars (doh!).
91 - added latin1 flag to produce JSON texts in the latin1 subset
92 of unicode.
93 - flag trailing garbage as error.
94 - new decode_prefix method that returns the number
95 of characters consumed by a decode.
96 - max octets/char in perls UTF-X is actually 13, not 11,
97 as pointed out by Glenn Linderman.
98 - fixed typoe reported by YAMASHINA Hio.
99
100 1.11 Mon Apr 9 07:05:49 CEST 2007
101 - properly 0-terminate sv's returned by encode to help
102 C libraries that expect that 0 to be there.
103 - partially "port" JSON from C to microsofts fucking broken
104 pseudo-C. They should be burned to the ground for pissing
105 on standards. And I should be stoned for even trying to
106 support this filthy excuse for a c compiler.
107
108 1.1 Wed Apr 4 01:45:00 CEST 2007
109 - clarify documentation (pointed out by Quinn Weaver).
110 - decode_utf8 sometimes did not correctly flag errors,
111 leading to segfaults.
112 - further reduced default nesting depth to 512 due to the test
113 failure by that anonymous "chris" whose e-mail address seems
114 to be impossible to get. Tests on other freebsd systems indicate
115 that this is likely a problem in his/her configuration and not this
116 module.
117 - renamed json => JSON in error messages.
118 - corrected the character offset in some error messages.
119
120 1.01 Sat Mar 31 16:15:40 CEST 2007
121 - do not segfault when from_json/decode gets passed
122 a non-string object (reported by Florian Ragwitz).
123 This has no effect on normal operation.
124
125 1.0 Thu Mar 29 04:43:34 CEST 2007
126 - the long awaited (by me) 1.0 version.
127 - add \0 (JSON::XS::false) and \1 (JSON::XS::true) mappings to JSON
128 true and false.
129 - add some more notes to shrink, as suggested by Alex Efros.
130 - improve testsuite.
131 - halve the default nesting depth limit, to hopefully make it
132 work on Freebsd (unfortunately, the cpan tester did not
133 send me his report, so I cannot ask about the stack limit on fbsd).
134
135 0.8 Mon Mar 26 00:10:48 CEST 2007
136 - fix a memleak when decoding hashes.
137 - export jsonToBj and objToJson as aliases
138 to to_json and from_json, to reduce incompatibilities
139 between JSON/JSON::PC and JSON::XS. (experimental).
140 - implement a maximum nesting depth for both en- and de-coding.
141 - added a security considerations sections.
142
143 0.7 Sun Mar 25 01:46:30 CET 2007
144 - code cleanup.
145 - fix a memory overflow bug when indenting.
146 - pretty-printing now up to 15% faster.
147 - improve decoding speed of strings by
148 up to 50% by specialcasing short strings.
149 - further decoding speedups for strings using
150 lots of \u escapes.
151 - improve utf8 decoding speed for U+80 .. U+7FF.
152
153 0.5 Sat Mar 24 20:41:51 CET 2007
154 - added the UTF-16 encoding example hinted at in previous
155 versions.
156 - minor documentation fixes.
157 - fix a bug in and optimise canonicalising fastpath
158 (reported by Craig Manley).
159 - remove a subtest that breaks with bleadperl (reported
160 by Andreas König).
161
162 0.31 Sat Mar 24 02:14:34 CET 2007
163 - documentation updates.
164 - do some casting to hopefully fix Andreas' problem.
165 - nuke bogus json rpc stuff.
166
167 0.3 Fri Mar 23 19:33:21 CET 2007
168 - remove spurious PApp::Util reference (John McNamara).
169 - adapted lots of tests from other json modules
170 (idea by Chris Carline).
171 - documented mapping from json to perl and vice versa.
172 - improved the documentation by adding more examples.
173 - added short escaping forms, reducing the created
174 json texts a bit.
175 - added shrink flag.
176 - when flag methods are called without enable argument
177 they will by default enable their flag.
178 - considerably improved string encoding speed (at least
179 with gcc 4).
180 - added a test that covers lots of different characters.
181 - clarified some error messages.
182 - error messages now use correct character offset
183 with F_UTF8.
184 - improve the "no bytes" and "no warnings" hacks in
185 case the called functions do... stuff.
186 - croak when encoding to ascii and an out-of-range
187 (non-unicode) codepoint is encountered.
188
189 0.2 Fri Mar 23 00:23:34 CET 2007
190 - the "could not sleep without debuggign release".
191 it should basically work now, with many bugs as
192 no production tests have been run yet.
193 - added more testcases.
194 - the expected shitload of bugfixes.
195 - handle utf8 flag correctly in decode.
196 - fix segfault in decoder.
197 - utf8n_to_uvuni sets retlen to -1, but retlen is an
198 unsigned types (argh).
199 - fix decoding of utf-8 strings.
200 - improved error diagnostics.
201 - fix decoding of 'null'.
202 - fix parsing of empty array/hashes
203 - silence warnings when we prepare the croak message.
204
205 0.1 Thu Mar 22 22:13:43 CET 2007
206 - first release, very untested, basically just to claim
207 the namespace.
208
209 0.01 Thu Mar 22 06:08:12 CET 2007
210 - original version; cloned from Convert-Scalar
211
