Daniel Veillard1177ca42003-04-26 22:29:54 +00001909 <li>Tried to improve the HTML output with help from <a href="mailto:clahey@umich.edu">Chris Lahey</a></li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001910</ul><h3>1.8.1: Dec 18 1999</h3><ul><li>various patches to avoid troubles when using libxml with C++ compilers
1911 the "namespace" keyword and C escaping in include files</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001912 <li>a problem in one of the core macros IS_CHAR was corrected</li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001913 <li>fixed a bug introduced in 1.8.0 breaking default namespace processing,
1914 and more specifically the Dia application</li>
1915 <li>fixed a posteriori validation (validation after parsing, or by using a
1916 Dtd not specified in the original document)</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001917 <li>fixed a bug in</li>
Daniel Veillard0bcc7f62005-09-04 21:39:03 +00001918</ul><h3>1.8.0: Dec 12 1999</h3><ul><li>cleanup, especially memory wise</li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001919 <li>the parser should be more reliable, especially the HTML one, it should
1920 not crash, whatever the input !</li>
1921 <li>Integrated various patches, especially a speedup improvement for large
1922 dataset from <a href="mailto:cnygard@bellatlantic.net">Carl Nygard</a>,
1923 configure with --with-buffers to enable them.</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001924 <li>attribute normalization, oops should have been added long ago !</li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001925 <li>attributes defaulted from DTDs should be available, xmlSetProp() now
1926 does entities escaping by default.</li>
Daniel Veillard0bcc7f62005-09-04 21:39:03 +00001927</ul><h3>1.7.4: Oct 25 1999</h3><ul><li>Lots of HTML improvement</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001928 <li>Fixed some errors when saving both XML and HTML</li>
1929 <li>More examples, the regression tests should now look clean</li>
1930 <li>Fixed a bug with contiguous charref</li>
Daniel Veillard0bcc7f62005-09-04 21:39:03 +00001931</ul><h3>1.7.3: Sep 29 1999</h3><ul><li>portability problems fixed</li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001932 <li>snprintf was used unconditionally, leading to link problems on system
1933 were it's not available, fixed</li>
1934</ul><h3>1.7.1: Sep 24 1999</h3><ul><li>The basic type for strings manipulated by libxml has been renamed in
1935 1.7.1 from <strong>CHAR</strong> to <strong>xmlChar</strong>. The reason
1936 is that CHAR was conflicting with a predefined type on Windows. However
1937 on non WIN32 environment, compatibility is provided by the way of a
1938 <strong>#define </strong>.</li>
1939 <li>Changed another error : the use of a structure field called errno, and
1940 leading to troubles on platforms where it's a macro</li>
1941</ul><h3>1.7.0: Sep 23 1999</h3><ul><li>Added the ability to fetch remote DTD or parsed entities, see the <a href="html/libxml-nanohttp.html">nanohttp</a> module.</li>
1942 <li>Added an errno to report errors by another mean than a simple printf
1943 like callback</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001944 <li>Finished ID/IDREF support and checking when validation</li>
Daniel Veillardf781dba2006-06-09 13:34:49 +00001945 <li>Serious memory leaks fixed (there is now a <a href="html/libxml-xmlmemory.html">memory wrapper</a> module)</li>
1946 <li>Improvement of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XPath</a>
1947 implementation</li>
Daniel Veillard0b28e882002-07-24 23:47:05 +00001948 <li>Added an HTML parser front-end</li>
