| 2.6.0: Oct 20 2003: | |
| - Major revision release: should be API and ABI compatible but got a lot | |
| of change | |
| - Increased the library modularity, far more options can be stripped out, | |
| a --with-minimum configuration will weight around 160KBytes | |
| - Use per parser and per document dictionnary, allocate names and small | |
| text nodes from the dictionnary | |
| - Switch to a SAX2 like parser rewrote most of the XML parser core, | |
| provides namespace resolution and defaulted attributes, minimize memory | |
| allocations and copies, namespace checking and specific error handling, | |
| immutable buffers, make predefined entities static structures, etc... | |
| - rewrote all the error handling in the library, all errors can be | |
| intercepted at a structured level, with precise information | |
| available. | |
| - New simpler and more generic XML and HTML parser APIs, allowing to | |
| easilly modify the parsing options and reuse parser context for multiple | |
| consecutive documents. | |
| - Similar new APIs for the xmlReader, for options and reuse, provided new | |
| functions to access content as const strings, use them for Python | |
| bindings | |
| - a lot of other smaller API improvements: xmlStrPrintf (Aleksey Sanin), | |

| - output to a given encoding has been added/tested | |
| - lot of various fixes | |
| 2.0.0: Apr 12 2000: | |
| - First public release of libxml2. If you are using libxml, it's a good | |
| idea to check the 1.x to 2.x upgrade instructions. NOTE: while initially | |
| scheduled for Apr 3 the release occurred only on Apr 12 due to massive | |
| workload. | |
| - The include are now located under $prefix/include/libxml (instead of | |
| $prefix/include/gnome-xml), they also are referenced by | |
| #include <libxml/xxx.h> | |
| instead of | |
| #include "xxx.h" | |
| - a new URI module for parsing URIs and following strictly RFC 2396 | |
| - the memory allocation routines used by libxml can now be overloaded | |
| dynamically by using xmlMemSetup() | |
| - The previously CVS only tool tester has been renamed | |
| xmllint and is now installed as part of the libxml2 | |
| package | |
| - The I/O interface has been revamped. There is now ways to plug in | |
| specific I/O modules, either at the URI scheme detection level using | |
| xmlRegisterInputCallbacks() or by passing I/O functions when creating a | |
| parser context using xmlCreateIOParserCtxt() | |
| - there is a C preprocessor macro LIBXML_VERSION providing the version | |
| number of the libxml module in use | |
| - a number of optional features of libxml can now be excluded at | |
| configure time (FTP/HTTP/HTML/XPath/Debug) | |
| 2.0.0beta: Mar 14 2000: | |
| - This is a first Beta release of libxml version 2 | |
| - It's available only fromxmlsoft.org | |
| FTP, it's packaged as libxml2-2.0.0beta and available as tar and | |
| RPMs | |
| - This version is now the head in the Gnome CVS base, the old one is | |
| available under the tag LIB_XML_1_X | |
| - This includes a very large set of changes. From a programmatic point | |
| of view applications should not have to be modified too much, check the | |
| upgrade page | |
| - Some interfaces may changes (especially a bit about encoding). | |
| - the updates includes: | |
| fix I18N support. ISO-Latin-x/UTF-8/UTF-16 (nearly) seems correctly | |
| handled now | |
| Better handling of entities, especially well-formedness checking | |
| and proper PEref extensions in external subsets | |
| DTD conditional sections | |
| Validation now correctly handle entities content | |
| change | |
| structures to accommodate DOM | |

| - Serious progress were made toward compliance, here are the result of the test against the | |
| OASIS testsuite (except the Japanese tests since I don't support that | |
| encoding yet). This URL is rebuilt every couple of hours using the CVS | |
| head version. | |
| 1.8.7: Mar 6 2000: | |
| - This is a bug fix release: | |
| - It is possible to disable the ignorable blanks heuristic used by | |
| libxml-1.x, a new function xmlKeepBlanksDefault(0) will allow this. Note | |
| that for adherence to XML spec, this behaviour will be disabled by | |
| default in 2.x . The same function will allow to keep compatibility for | |
| old code. | |
| - Blanks in <a> </a> constructs are not ignored anymore, | |
| avoiding heuristic is really the Right Way :-\ | |
| - The unchecked use of snprintf which was breaking libxml-1.8.6 | |
| compilation on some platforms has been fixed | |
| - nanoftp.c nanohttp.c: Fixed '#' and '?' stripping when processing | |
| URIs | |
| 1.8.6: Jan 31 2000: | |
| - added a nanoFTP transport module, debugged until the new version of rpmfind can use | |
| it without troubles | |
| 1.8.5: Jan 21 2000: | |
| - adding APIs to parse a well balanced chunk of XML (production [43] content of the | |
| XML spec) | |
| - fixed a hideous bug in xmlGetProp pointed by Rune.Djurhuus@fast.no | |
| - Jody Goldberg <jgoldberg@home.com> provided another patch trying | |
| to solve the zlib checks problems | |
| - The current state in gnome CVS base is expected to ship as 1.8.5 with | |
| gnumeric soon | |
| 1.8.4: Jan 13 2000: | |
| - bug fixes, reintroduced xmlNewGlobalNs(), fixed xmlNewNs() | |
| - all exit() call should have been removed from libxml | |
| - fixed a problem with INCLUDE_WINSOCK on WIN32 platform | |
| - added newDocFragment() | |
| 1.8.3: Jan 5 2000: | |

| - fixed the DTD parsing code to work with the xhtml DTD | |
| - added xmlRemoveProp(), xmlRemoveID() and xmlRemoveRef() | |
| - Fixed bugs in xmlNewNs() | |
| - External entity loading code has been revamped, now it uses | |
| xmlLoadExternalEntity(), some fix on entities processing were added | |
| - cleaned up WIN32 includes of socket stuff | |
| 1.8.2: Dec 21 1999: | |
| - I got another problem with includes and C++, I hope this issue is fixed | |
| for good this time | |
| - Added a few tree modification functions: xmlReplaceNode, | |
| xmlAddPrevSibling, xmlAddNextSibling, xmlNodeSetName and | |
| xmlDocSetRootElement | |
| - Tried to improve the HTML output with help from Chris Lahey | |
| 1.8.1: Dec 18 1999: | |
| - various patches to avoid troubles when using libxml with C++ compilers | |
| the "namespace" keyword and C escaping in include files | |
| - a problem in one of the core macros IS_CHAR was corrected | |
| - fixed a bug introduced in 1.8.0 breaking default namespace processing, | |
| and more specifically the Dia application | |
| - fixed a posteriori validation (validation after parsing, or by using a | |
| Dtd not specified in the original document) | |
| - fixed a bug in | |
| 1.8.0: Dec 12 1999: | |
| - cleanup, especially memory wise | |
| - the parser should be more reliable, especially the HTML one, it should | |
| not crash, whatever the input ! | |
| - Integrated various patches, especially a speedup improvement for large | |
| dataset from Carl Nygard, | |
| configure with --with-buffers to enable them. | |
| - attribute normalization, oops should have been added long ago ! | |
| - attributes defaulted from DTDs should be available, xmlSetProp() now | |
| does entities escaping by default. | |
| 1.7.4: Oct 25 1999: | |
| - Lots of HTML improvement | |
| - Fixed some errors when saving both XML and HTML | |
| - More examples, the regression tests should now look clean | |

| 1.7.3: Sep 29 1999: | |
| - portability problems fixed | |
| - snprintf was used unconditionally, leading to link problems on system | |
| were it's not available, fixed | |
| 1.7.1: Sep 24 1999: | |
| - The basic type for strings manipulated by libxml has been renamed in | |
| 1.7.1 from CHAR to xmlChar. The reason | |
| is that CHAR was conflicting with a predefined type on Windows. However | |
| on non WIN32 environment, compatibility is provided by the way of a | |
| #define . | |
| - Changed another error : the use of a structure field called errno, and | |
| leading to troubles on platforms where it's a macro | |
| 1.7.0: Sep 23 1999: | |
| - Added the ability to fetch remote DTD or parsed entities, see the nanohttp module. | |
| - Added an errno to report errors by another mean than a simple printf | |
| like callback | |
| - Finished ID/IDREF support and checking when validation | |
| - Serious memory leaks fixed (there is now a memory wrapper module) | |
| - Improvement of XPath | |
| implementation | |
| - Added an HTML parser front-end | |
