Here's how it works now: + + * isInt, isInt64, isUInt, and isUInt64 return true if and only if the + value can be exactly represented as that type. In particular, a value + constructed with a double like 17.0 will now return true for all of + these methods. + + * isDouble and isFloat now return true for all numeric values, since all + numeric values can be converted to a double or float without + truncation. Note however that the conversion may not be exact -- for + example, doubles cannot exactly represent all integers above 2^53 + 1. + + * isBool, isNull, isString, isArray, and isObject now return true if and + only if the value is of that type. + + * isConvertibleTo(fooValue) indicates that it is safe to call asFoo. + (For each type foo, isFoo always implies isConvertibleTo(fooValue).) + asFoo returns an approximate or exact representation as appropriate. + For example, a double value may be truncated when asInt is called. + + * For backwards compatibility with old code, isConvertibleTo(intValue) + may return false even if type() == intValue. This is because the value + may have been constructed with a 64-bit integer larger than maxInt, + and calling asInt() would cause an exception. If you're writing new + code, use isInt64 to find out whether the value is exactly + representable using an Int64, or asDouble() combined with minInt64 and + maxInt64 to figure out whether it is approximately representable. + +* Value + - Patch #10: BOOST_FOREACH compatibility. Made Json::iterator more + standard compliant, added missing iterator_category and value_type + typedefs (contribued by Robert A. Iannucci). + +* Compilation + + - New CMake based build system. Based in part on contribution from + Igor Okulist and Damien Buhl (Patch #14). + + - New header json/version.h now contains version number macros + (JSONCPP_VERSION_MAJOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_MINOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_PATCH + and JSONCPP_VERSION_HEXA). + + - Patch #11: added missing JSON_API on some classes causing link issues + when building as a dynamic library on Windows + (contributed by Francis Bolduc). + + - Visual Studio DLL: suppressed warning "C4251: <data member>: <type> + needs to have dll-interface to be used by..." via pragma push/pop + in json-cpp headers. + + - Added Travis CI intregration: https://travis-ci.org/blep/jsoncpp-mirror + +* Bug fixes + - Patch #15: Copy constructor does not initialize allocated_ for stringValue + (contributed by rmongia). + + - Patch #16: Missing field copy in Json::Value::iterator causing infinite + loop when using experimental internal map (#define JSON_VALUE_USE_INTERNAL_MAP) + (contributed by Ming-Lin Kao). + + + New in JsonCpp 0.6.0: + --------------------- + +* Compilation + + - LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH environment variables are now + propagated to the build environment as this is required for some + compiler installation. + + - Added support for Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (bug #2930462): + The platform "msvc90" has been added. + + Notes: you need to setup the environment by running vcvars32.bat + (e.g. MSVC 2008 command prompt in start menu) before running scons. + + - Added support for amalgamated source and header generation (a la sqlite). + Refer to README.md section "Generating amalgamated source and header" + for detail. + +* Value + + - Removed experimental ValueAllocator, it caused static + initialization/destruction order issues (bug #2934500). + The DefaultValueAllocator has been inlined in code. + + - Added support for 64 bits integer: + + Types Json::Int64 and Json::UInt64 have been added. They are aliased + to 64 bits integers on system that support them (based on __int64 on + Microsoft Visual Studio platform, and long long on other platforms). + + Types Json::LargestInt and Json::LargestUInt have been added. They are + aliased to the largest integer type supported: + either Json::Int/Json::UInt or Json::Int64/Json::UInt64 respectively. + + Json::Value::asInt() and Json::Value::asUInt() still returns plain + "int" based types, but asserts if an attempt is made to retrieve + a 64 bits value that can not represented as the return type. + + Json::Value::asInt64() and Json::Value::asUInt64() have been added + to obtain the 64 bits integer value. + + Json::Value::asLargestInt() and Json::Value::asLargestUInt() returns + the integer as a LargestInt/LargestUInt respectively. Those functions + functions are typically used when implementing writer. + + The reader attempts to read number as 64 bits integer, and fall back + to reading a double if the number is not in the range of 64 bits + integer. + + Warning: Json::Value::asInt() and Json::Value::asUInt() now returns + long long. This changes break code that was passing the return value + to *printf() function. + + Support for 64 bits integer can be disabled by defining the macro + JSON_NO_INT64 (uncomment it in json/config.h for example), though + it should have no impact on existing usage. + + - The type Json::ArrayIndex is used for indexes of a JSON value array. It + is an unsigned int (typically 32 bits). + + - Array index can be passed as int to operator[], allowing use of literal: + Json::Value array; + array.append( 1234 ); + int value = array[0].asInt(); // did not compile previously + + - Added float Json::Value::asFloat() to obtain a floating point value as a + float (avoid lost of precision warning caused by used of asDouble() + to initialize a float). + +* Reader + + - Renamed Reader::getFormatedErrorMessages() to getFormattedErrorMessages. + Bug #3023708 (Formatted has 2 't'). The old member function is deprecated + but still present for backward compatibility. + +* Tests + + - Added test to ensure that the escape sequence "\/" is corrected handled + by the parser. + +* Bug fixes + + - Bug #3139677: JSON [1 2 3] was incorrectly parsed as [1, 3]. Error is now + correctly detected. + + - Bug #3139678: stack buffer overflow when parsing a double with a + length of 32 characters. + + - Fixed Value::operator <= implementation (had the semantic of operator >=). + Found when adding unit tests for comparison operators. + + - Value::compare() is now const and has an actual implementation with + unit tests. + + - Bug #2407932: strpbrk() can fail for NULL pointer. + + - Bug #3306345: Fixed minor typo in Path::resolve(). + + - Bug #3314841/#3306896: errors in amalgamate.py + + - Fixed some Coverity warnings and line-endings. + +* License + + - See file LICENSE for details. Basically JsonCpp is now licensed under + MIT license, or public domain if desired and recognized in your jurisdiction. + Thanks to Stephan G. Beal [http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/]) who + helped figuring out the solution to the public domain issue. |
