| 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. |

| functions to access content as const strings, use them for Python |
| bindings |

| |
| |
| 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 |

| - DTD conditional sections |
| - Validation now correctly handle entities content |
| - change |

| - 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 |

| - adding APIs to parse a well balanced chunk of XML (production [43] content of the |
| XML spec) |

| gnumeric soon |
| |
| |
| 1.8.4: Jan 13 2000: |
| - bug fixes, reintroduced xmlNewGlobalNs(), fixed xmlNewNs() |

| - 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 |

| - 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 |
