  37. Release 2.0.1 Tue June 5 2007
  38.         - Fixed bugs #1515266, #1515600: The character data handler's calling
  39.           of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was
  40.           stopped and the handler set to NULL, the parser would segfault.
  41.         - Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed
  42.           some character constants to be ASCII encoded.
  43.         - Minor cleanups of the test harness.

  45.         - Fixed outline.c bug #1543233: missing a final XML_ParserFree() call.
  46.         - Fixes and improvements for Windows platform:
  47.           bugs #1409451, #1476160, #1548182, #1602769, #1717322.

  50.           All Unix: #1554618 (refreshed config.sub/config.guess).
  51.                     #1490371, #1613457: support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT,
  52.                     without relying on GNU-Make specific features.
  53.           #1647805: Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler.
  54.         - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly:
  55.           bugs #1408143, #1535603, #1536684.
  56.         - Added Open Watcom support: patch #1523242.
  57.  
  58. Release 2.0.0 Wed Jan 11 2006
  59.         - We no longer use the "check" library for C unit testing; we
  60.           always use the (partial) internal implementation of the API.
  61.         - Report XML_NS setting via XML_GetFeatureList().
  62.         - Fixed headers for use from C++.
  63.         - XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and  XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber()
  64.           now return unsigned integers.
  65.         - Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for
  66.           byte indexes and line/column numbers.
  67.         - Updated to use libtool 1.5.22 (the most recent).
  68.         - Added support for AmigaOS.
  69.         - Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: #1006708,
  70.           #1021776, #1023646, #1114960, #1156398, #1221160, #1271642.
  71.  
  72. Release 1.95.8 Fri Jul 23 2004
  73.         - Major new feature: suspend/resume.  Handlers can now request
  74.           that a parse be suspended for later resumption or aborted
  75.           altogether.  See "Temporarily Stopping Parsing" in the
  76.           documentation for more details.
  77.         - Some mostly minor bug fixes, but compilation should no
  78.           longer generate warnings on most platforms.  SF issues
  79.           include: #827319, #840173, #846309, #888329, #896188, #923913,

  81.  
  82. Release 1.95.7 Mon Oct 20 2003
  83.         - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many
  84.           times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy.
  85.         - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling
  86.           convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used
  87.           to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback
  88.           implementations in code compiled with a calling convention
  89.           other than the default convention for the host platform.
  90.         - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated
  91.           expat_config.h header.  This is useful for applications
  92.           which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.
  93.         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #458907, #609603,
  94.           #676844, #679754, #692878, #692964, #695401, #699323, #699487,
  95.           #820946.
  96.         - Improved hash table lookups.
  97.         - Added more regression tests and improved documentation.
  98.  
  99. Release 1.95.6 Tue Jan 28 2003
  100.         - Added XML_FreeContentModel().
  101.         - Added XML_MemMalloc(), XML_MemRealloc(), XML_MemFree().
  102.         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #615606, #616863,
  103.           #618199, #653180, #673791.
  104.         - Enhanced the regression test suite.
  105.         - Man page improvements: includes SF issue #632146.
  106.  
  107. Release 1.95.5 Fri Sep 6 2002
  108.         - Added XML_UseForeignDTD() for improved SAX2 support.
  109.         - Added XML_GetFeatureList().
  110.         - Defined XML_Bool type and the values XML_TRUE and XML_FALSE.
  111.         - Use an incomplete struct instead of a void* for the parser
  112.           (may not retain).
  113.         - Fixed UTF-8 decoding bug that caused legal UTF-8 to be rejected.
  114.         - Finally fixed bug where default handler would report DTD
  115.           events that were already handled by another handler.
  116.           Initial patch contributed by Darryl Miles.
  117.         - Removed unnecessary DllMain() function that caused static
  118.           linking into a DLL to be difficult.
  119.         - Added VC++ projects for building static libraries.
  120.         - Reduced line-length for all source code and headers to be
  121.           no longer than 80 characters, to help with AS/400 support.
  122.         - Reduced memory copying during parsing (SF patch #600964).
  123.         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #580793, #434664,
  124.           #483514, #580503, #581069, #584041, #584183, #584832, #585537,
  125.           #596555, #596678, #598352, #598944, #599715, #600479, #600971.
  126.  
  127. Release 1.95.4 Fri Jul 12 2002
  128.         - Added support for VMS, contributed by Craig Berry.  See
  129.           vms/README.vms for more information.
  130.         - Added Mac OS (classic) support, with a makefile for MPW,
  131.           contributed by Thomas Wegner and Daryle Walker.
  132.         - Added Borland C++ Builder 5 / BCC 5.5 support, contributed
  133.           by Patrick McConnell (SF patch #538032).
  134.         - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #441449, #563184,
  135.           #564342, #566334, #566901, #569461, #570263, #575168, #579196.
  136.         - Made skippedEntityHandler conform to SAX2 (see source comment)
  137.         - Re-implemented WFC: Entity Declared from XML 1.0 spec and
  138.           added a new error "entity declared in parameter entity":
  139.           see SF bug report #569461 and SF patch #578161
  140.         - Re-implemented section 5.1 from XML 1.0 spec:
  141.           see SF bug report #570263 and SF patch #578161
  142.  
  143. Release 1.95.3 Mon Jun 3 2002
  144.         - Added a project to the MSVC workspace to create a wchar_t
  145.           version of the library; the DLLs are named libexpatw.dll.
  146.         - Changed the name of the Windows DLLs from expat.dll to

  155.           #547350.  Other bugs which we can't test as easily may also
  156.           have been fixed, especially in the area of build support.
  157.  
  158. Release 1.95.2 Fri Jul 27 2001
  159.         - More changes to make MSVC happy with the build; add a single
  160.           workspace to support both the library and xmlwf application.
  161.         - Added a Windows installer for Windows users; includes
  162.           xmlwf.exe.
  163.         - Added compile-time constants that can be used to determine the

  181.         - The reference had the wrong label for XML_SetStartNamespaceDecl.
  182.           Reported by an anonymous user.
  183.  
  184. Release 1.95.0 Fri Sep 29 2000
  185.         - XML_ParserCreate_MM
  186.                 Allows you to set a memory management suite to replace the
  187.                 standard malloc,realloc, and free.
  188.         - XML_SetReturnNSTriplet
  189.                 If you turn this feature on when namespace processing is in
  190.                 effect, then qualified, prefixed element and attribute names
  191.                 are returned as "uri|name|prefix" where '|' is whatever
  192.                 separator character is used in namespace processing.
  193.         - Merged in features from perl-expat
  194.                 o XML_SetElementDeclHandler

  199.                         sysid, pubid, has_internal_subset
  200.                 o Many paired handler setters (like XML_SetElementHandler)
  201.                   now have corresponding individual handler setters
  202.                 o XML_GetInputContext for getting the input context of
  203.                   the current parse position.
  204.         - Added reference material
