     1 Release 2.0.1 Tue June 5 2007
       
     2         - Fixed bugs #1515266, 1515600: The character data handler's calling
       
     3           of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was
       
     4           stopped and the handler set to NULL, the parser would segfault.
       
     5         - Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed
       
     6           some character constants to be ASCII encoded.
       
     7         - Minor cleanups of the test harness.
       
     8         - Fixed xmlwf bug #1513566: "out of memory" error on file size zero.
       
     9         - Fixed outline.c bug #1543233: missing a final XML_ParserFree() call.
       
    10         - Fixes and improvements for Windows platform:
       
    11           bugs #1409451, #1476160, 1548182, 1602769, 1717322.
       
    12         - Build fixes for various platforms:
       
    13           HP-UX, Tru64, Solaris 9: patch #1437840, bug #1196180.
       
    14           All Unix: #1554618 (refreshed config.sub/config.guess).
       
    15                     #1490371, #1613457: support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT,
       
    16                     without relying on GNU-Make specific features.
       
    17           #1647805: Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler.
       
    18         - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly:
       
    19           bugs #1408143, #1535603, #1536684.
       
    20         - Added Open Watcom support: patch #1523242.
       
    21 
       
    22 Release 2.0.0 Wed Jan 11 2006
       
    23         - We no longer use the "check" library for C unit testing; we
       
    24           always use the (partial) internal implementation of the API.
       
    25         - Report XML_NS setting via XML_GetFeatureList().
       
    26         - Fixed headers for use from C++.
       
    27         - XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and  XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber()
       
    28           now return unsigned integers.
       
    29         - Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for
       
    30           byte indexes and line/column numbers.
       
    31         - Updated to use libtool 1.5.22 (the most recent).
       
    32         - Added support for AmigaOS.
       
    33         - Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: 1006708,
       
    34           1021776, 1023646, 1114960, 1156398, 1221160, 1271642.
       
    35 
       
    36 Release 1.95.8 Fri Jul 23 2004
       
    37         - Major new feature: suspend/resume.  Handlers can now request
       
    38           that a parse be suspended for later resumption or aborted
       
    39           altogether.  See "Temporarily Stopping Parsing" in the
       
    40           documentation for more details.
       
    41         - Some mostly minor bug fixes, but compilation should no
       
    42           longer generate warnings on most platforms.  SF issues
       
    43           include: 827319, 840173, 846309, 888329, 896188, 923913,
       
    44           928113, 961698, 985192.
       
    45 
       
    46 Release 1.95.7 Mon Oct 20 2003
       
    47         - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many
       
    48           times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy.
       
    49         - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling
       
    50           convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used
       
    51           to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback
       
    52           implementations in code compiled with a calling convention
       
    53           other than the default convention for the host platform.
       
    54         - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated
       
    55           expat_config.h header.  This is useful for applications
       
    56           which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.
       
    57         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 458907, 609603,
       
    58           676844, 679754, 692878, 692964, 695401, 699323, 699487,
       
    59           820946.
       
    60         - Improved hash table lookups.
       
    61         - Added more regression tests and improved documentation.
       
    62 
       
    63 Release 1.95.6 Tue Jan 28 2003
       
    64         - Added XML_FreeContentModel().
       
    65         - Added XML_MemMalloc(), XML_MemRealloc(), XML_MemFree().
       
    66         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 615606, 616863,
       
    67           618199, 653180, 673791.
       
    68         - Enhanced the regression test suite.
       
    69         - Man page improvements: includes SF issue 632146.
       
    70 
       
    71 Release 1.95.5 Fri Sep 6 2002
       
    72         - Added XML_UseForeignDTD() for improved SAX2 support.
       
    73         - Added XML_GetFeatureList().
       
    74         - Defined XML_Bool type and the values XML_TRUE and XML_FALSE.
       
    75         - Use an incomplete struct instead of a void* for the parser
       
    76           (may not retain).
       
    77         - Fixed UTF-8 decoding bug that caused legal UTF-8 to be rejected.
       
    78         - Finally fixed bug where default handler would report DTD
       
    79           events that were already handled by another handler.
       
    80           Initial patch contributed by Darryl Miles.
       
    81         - Removed unnecessary DllMain() function that caused static
       
    82           linking into a DLL to be difficult.
       
    83         - Added VC++ projects for building static libraries.
       
    84         - Reduced line-length for all source code and headers to be
       
    85           no longer than 80 characters, to help with AS/400 support.
       
    86         - Reduced memory copying during parsing (SF patch #600964).
       
    87         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 580793, 434664,
       
    88           483514, 580503, 581069, 584041, 584183, 584832, 585537,
       
    89           596555, 596678, 598352, 598944, 599715, 600479, 600971.

    98         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 441449, 563184,
       
    99           564342, 566334, 566901, 569461, 570263, 575168, 579196.
       
   100         - Made skippedEntityHandler conform to SAX2 (see source comment)
       
   101         - Re-implemented WFC: Entity Declared from XML 1.0 spec and
       
   102           added a new error "entity declared in parameter entity":
       
   103           see SF bug report 569461 and SF patch 578161
       
   104         - Re-implemented section 5.1 from XML 1.0 spec:
       
   105           see SF bug report 570263 and SF patch 578161

   107 Release 1.95.3 Mon Jun 3 2002
       
   108         - Added a project to the MSVC workspace to create a wchar_t
       
   109           version of the library; the DLLs are named libexpatw.dll.
       
   110         - Changed the name of the Windows DLLs from expat.dll to
       
   111           libexpat.dll; this fixes SF bug #432456.
       
   112         - Added the XML_ParserReset() API function.
       
   113         - Fixed XML_SetReturnNSTriplet() to work for element names.
       
   114         - Made the XML_UNICODE builds usable (thanks, Karl!).
       
   115         - Allow xmlwf to read from standard input.
       
   116         - Install a man page for xmlwf on Unix systems.
       
   117         - Fixed many bugs; see SF bug reports 231864, 461380, 464837,
       
   118           466885, 469226, 477667, 484419, 487840, 494749, 496505,
       
   119           547350.  Other bugs which we can't test as easily may also
       
   120           have been fixed, especially in the area of build support.
       
   121 
       
   122 Release 1.95.2 Fri Jul 27 2001
       
   123         - More changes to make MSVC happy with the build; add a single
       
   124           workspace to support both the library and xmlwf application.
       
   125         - Added a Windows installer for Windows users; includes
       
   126           xmlwf.exe.
       
   127         - Added compile-time constants that can be used to determine the
       
   128           Expat version
       
   129         - Removed a lot of GNU-specific dependencies to aide portability
       
   130           among the various Unix flavors.
       
   131         - Fix the UTF-8 BOM bug.

   139           abort.
       
   140         - Defined XML_SetEndNamespaceDeclHandler. Thanks to Darryl Miles for
       
   141           finding this oversight.
       
   142         - Changed default patterns in lib/Makefile.in to fit non-GNU makes
       
   143           Thanks to robin@unrated.net for reporting and providing an
       
   144           account to test on.
       
   145         - The reference had the wrong label for XML_SetStartNamespaceDecl.
       
   146           Reported by an anonymous user.
       
   147 
       
   148 Release 1.95.0 Fri Sep 29 2000
       
   149         - XML_ParserCreate_MM
       
   150                 Allows you to set a memory management suite to replace the
       
   151                 standard malloc,realloc, and free.
       
   152         - XML_SetReturnNSTriplet
       
   153                 If you turn this feature on when namespace processing is in
       
   154                 effect, then qualified, prefixed element and attribute names
       
   155                 are returned as "uri|name|prefix" where '|' is whatever
       
   156                 separator character is used in namespace processing.
       
   157         - Merged in features from perl-expat
       
   158                 o XML_SetElementDeclHandler
       
   159                 o XML_SetAttlistDeclHandler
       
   160                 o XML_SetXmlDeclHandler
       
   161                 o XML_SetEntityDeclHandler
       
   162                 o StartDoctypeDeclHandler takes 3 additional parameters:
       
   163                         sysid, pubid, has_internal_subset
       
   164                 o Many paired handler setters (like XML_SetElementHandler)
       
   165                   now have corresponding individual handler setters
       
   166                 o XML_GetInputContext for getting the input context of
       
   167                   the current parse position.
       
   168         - Added reference material
       
   169         - Packaged into a distribution that builds a sharable library
