0.17 (future release)
========================================
Deprecated and removed features:
--------------------------------
* ...
New features
------------
* ...
Significant changes and bug fixes
---------------------------------
* When serializing with JSON_C_TO_STRING_PRETTY set, keep the opening and
closing curly or square braces on same line for empty objects or arrays.
* Disable locale handling when targeting a uClibc system due to problems
with its duplocale() function.
* When parsing with JSON_TOKENER_STRICT set, integer overflow/underflow
now result in a json_tokener_error_parse_number. Without that flag
values are capped at INT64_MIN/UINT64_MAX.
0.16 (up to commit 66dcdf5, 2022-04-13)
========================================
Deprecated and removed features:
--------------------------------
* JSON_C_OBJECT_KEY_IS_CONSTANT is deprecated in favor of
JSON_C_OBJECT_ADD_CONSTANT_KEY
* Direct access to lh_table and lh_entry structure members is deprecated.
Use access functions instead, lh_table_head(), lh_entry_next(), etc...
* Drop REFCOUNT_DEBUG code.
New features
------------
* The 0.16 release introduces no new features
Build changes
-------------
* Add a DISABLE_EXTRA_LIBS option to skip using libbsd
* Add a DISABLE_JSON_POINTER option to skip compiling in json_pointer support.
Significant changes and bug fixes
---------------------------------
* Cap string length at INT_MAX to avoid various issues with very long strings.
* json_object_deep_copy: fix deep copy of strings containing '\0'
* Fix read past end of buffer in the "json_parse" command
* Avoid out of memory accesses in the locally provided vasprintf() function
(for those platforms that use it)
* Handle allocation failure in json_tokener_new_ex
* Fix use-after-free in json_tokener_new_ex() in the event of printbuf_new() returning NULL
* printbuf_memset(): set gaps to zero - areas within the print buffer which
have not been initialized by using printbuf_memset
* printbuf: return -1 on invalid arguments (len < 0 or total buffer > INT_MAX)
* sprintbuf(): propagate printbuf_memappend errors back to the caller
Optimizations
--------------
* Speed up parsing by replacing ctype functions with simplified, faster
non-locale-sensitive ones in json_tokener and json_object_to_json_string.
* Neither vertical tab nor formfeed are considered whitespace per the JSON spec
* json_object: speed up creation of objects, calloc() -> malloc() + set fields
* Avoid needless extra strlen() call in json_c_shallow_copy_default() and
json_object_equal() when the object is known to be a json_type_string.
Other changes
-------------
* Validate size arguments in arraylist functions.
* Use getrandom() if available; with GRND_NONBLOCK to allow use of json-c
very early during boot, such as part of cryptsetup.
* Use arc4random() if it's available.
* random_seed: on error, continue to next method instead of exiting the process
* Close file when unable to read from /dev/urandom in get_dev_random_seed()
***
0.15 (up to commit 870965e, 2020/07/26)
========================================
Deprecated and removed features:
--------------------------------
* Deprecate `array_list_new()` in favor of `array_list_new2()`
* Remove the THIS_FUNCTION_IS_DEPRECATED define.
* Remove config.h.win32
New features
------------
* Add a `JSON_TOKENER_ALLOW_TRAILING_CHARS` flag to allow multiple objects
to be parsed even when `JSON_TOKENER_STRICT` is set.
* Add `json_object_new_array_ext(int)` and `array_list_new_2(int)` to allow
arrays to be allocated with the exact size needed, when known.
* Add `json_object_array_shrink()` (and `array_list_shrink()`) and use it in
json_tokener to minimize the amount of memory used.
* Add a json_parse binary, for use in testing changes (not installed, but
available in the apps directory).
Build changes
-------------
* #639/#621 - Add symbol versions to all exported symbols
* #508/#634 - Always enable -fPIC to allow use of the json-c static library in
other libraries
* Build both static and shared libraries at the same time.
* #626 - Restore compatibility with cmake 2.8
* #471 - Always create directories with mode 0755, regardless of umask.
* #606/#604 - Improve support for OSes like AIX and IBM i, as well as for
MINGW32 and old versions of MSVC
* #451/#617 - Add a DISABLE_THREAD_LOCAL_STORAGE cmake option to disable
the use of thread-local storage.
Significant changes and bug fixes
---------------------------------
* Split the internal json_object structure into several sub-types, one for
each json_type (json_object_object, json_object_string, etc...).
This improves memory usage and speed, with the benchmark under
bench/ report 5.8% faster test time and 6%(max RSS)-12%(peak heap)
less memory usage.
Memory used just for json_object structures decreased 27%, so use cases
with fewer arrays and/or strings would benefit more.
* Minimize memory usage in array handling in json_tokener by shrinking
arrays to the exact number of elements parsed. On bench/ benchmark:
9% faster test time, 39%(max RSS)-50%(peak heap) less memory usage.
Add json_object_array_shrink() and array_list_shrink() functions.
* #616 - Parsing of surrogate pairs in unicode escapes now properly handles
incremental parsing.
* Fix incremental parsing of numbers, especially those with exponents, e.g.
so parsing "[0", "e+", "-]" now properly returns an error.
Strict mode now rejects missing exponents ("0e").
* Successfully return number objects at the top level even when they are
followed by a "-", "." or "e". This makes parsing things like "123-45"
behave consistently with things like "123xyz".
Other changes
-------------
* #589 - Detect broken RDRAND during initialization; also, fix segfault
in the CPUID check.
* #592 - Fix integer overflows to prevert out of bounds write on large input.
* Protect against division by zero in linkhash, when created with zero size.
* #602 - Fix json_parse_uint64() internal error checking, leaving the retval
untouched in more failure cases.
* #614 - Prevent truncation when custom double formatters insert extra \0's

0.14 (up to commit 9ed00a6, 2020/04/14)
=========================================
Deprecated and removed features:
--------------------------------
* bits.h has been removed
* lh_abort() has been removed
* lh_table_lookup() has been removed, use lh_table_lookup_ex() instead.
* Remove TRUE and FALSE defines, use 1 and 0 instead.
Build changes:
--------------
## Deprecated and removed features:
* bits.h has been removed
* lh_abort() has been removed
* lh_table_lookup() has been removed, use lh_table_lookup_ex() instead.
* Remove TRUE and FALSE defines, use 1 and 0 instead.
* autoconf support, including autogen.sh, has been removed. See details about cmake, below.
* With the addition of json_tokener_get_parse_end(), access to internal fields of json_tokener, as well as use of many other symbols and types in json_tokener.h, is deprecated now.
* The use of Android.configure.mk to build for Android no longer works, and it is unknown how (or if) the new cmake-based build machinery can be used.
* Reports of success, or pull requests to correct issues are welcome.
## Notable improvements and new features
### Builds and documentation
* Build machinery has been switched to CMake. See README.md for details about how to build.
* TL;DR: `mkdir build ; cd build ; cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/some/path ../json-c ; make all test install`
* To ease the transition, there is a `cmake-configure` wrapper that emulates the old autoconf-based configure script.
* This has enabled improvements to the build on Windows system; also all public functions have been fixed to be properly exported. For best results, use Visual Studio 2015 or newer.
* The json-c style guide has been updated to specify the use of clang-format, and all code has been reformatted.
* Since many lines of code have trivial changes now, when using git blame, be sure to specify -w
* Numerous improvements have been made to the documentation including function effects on refcounts, when passing a NULL is safe, and so on.
### json_tokener changes
* Added a json_tokener_get_parse_end() function to replace direct access of tok->char_offset.
* The char_offset field, and the rest of the json_tokener structure remain exposed for now, but expect a future release to hide it like is done with json_object_private.h
* json_tokener_parse_ex() now accepts a new JSON_TOKENER_VALIDATE_UTF8 flag to validate that input is UTF8.
* If validation fails, json_tokener_get_error(tok) will return json_tokener_error_parse_utf8_string (see enum json_tokener_error).
### Other changes and additions
* Add support for unsigned 64-bit integers, uint64_t, to gain one extra bit of magnitude for positive ints.
* json_tokener will now parse values up to UINT64_MAX (18446744073709551615)
* Existing methods returning int32_t or int64_t will cap out-of-range values at INT32_MAX or INT64_MAX, preserving existing behavior.
* The implementation includes the possibility of easily extending this to larger sizes in the future.
* A total of 7 new functions were added:
* json_object_get_uint64 ( struct json_object const* jso )
* json_object_new_uint64 ( uint64_t i )
* json_object_set_uint64 ( struct json_object* jso, uint64_t new_value )
* json_parse_uint64 ( char const* buf, uint64_t* retval )
* See description of uint64 support, above.
* json_tokener_get_parse_end ( struct json_tokener* tok )
* See details under "json_tokener changes", above.
* json_object_from_fd_ex ( int fd, int in_depth )
* Allows the max nesting depth to be specified.
* json_object_new_null ( )
* Simply returns NULL. Its use is not recommended.
* The size of struct json_object has decreased from 96 bytes to 88 bytes.
### Testing
* Many updates were made to test cases, increasing code coverage.
* There is now a quick way (JSONC_TEST_TRACE=1) to turn on shell tracing in tests.
* To run tests, use `make test`; the old "check" target no longer exists.
## Significant bug fixes
For the full list of issues and pull requests since the previous release, please see issues_closed_for_0.14.md
* [Issue #389](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/389): Add an assert to explicitly crash when _ref_count is corrupted, instead of a later "double free" error.
* [Issue #407](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/407): fix incorrect casts in calls to ctype functions (isdigit and isspace) so we don't crash when asserts are enabled on certain platforms and characters > 128 are parsed.
* [Issue #418](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/418): Fix docs for json_util_from_fd and json_util_from_file to say that they return NULL on failures.
* [Issue #422](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/422): json_object.c:set errno in json_object_get_double() when called on a json_type_string object with bad content.
* [Issue #453](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/453): Fixed misalignment in JSON serialization when JSON_C_TO_STRING_SPACED and JSON_C_TO_STRING_PRETTY are used together.
* [Issue #463](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/463): fix newlocale() call to use LC_NUMERIC_MASK instead of LC_NUMERIC, and remove incorrect comment.
* [Issue #486](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/486): append a missing ".0" to negative double values to ensure they are serialized as floating point numbers.
* [Issue #488](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/488): use JSON_EXPORT on functions so they are properly exported on Windows.
* [Issue #539](https://github.com/json-c/json-c/issues/539): use an internal-only serializer function in json_object_new_double_s() to avoid potential conflicts with user code that uses the json_object_userdata_to_json_string serializer.
***
0.13.1 (up to commit 0f814e5, 2018/03/04)
=========================================
* Bump the major version of the .so library generated up to 4.0 to avoid
conflicts because some downstream packagers of json-c had already done
their own bump to ".so.3" for a much older 0.12 release.
* Add const size_t json_c_object_sizeof()
* Avoid invalid free (and thus a segfault) when ref_count gets < 0
* PR#394: fix handling of custom double formats that include a ".0"
* Avoid uninitialized variable warnings in json_object_object_foreach
* Issue #396: fix build for certain uClibc based systems.
* Add a top level fuzz directory for fuzzers run by OSS-Fuzz
0.13 (up to commit 5dae561, 2017/11/29)
=================================
This release, being three and a half years after the 0.12 branch (f84d9c),
has quite a number of changes included. The following is a sampling of
the most significant ones.
Since the 0.12 release, 250 issues and pull requests have been closed.
See issues_closed_for_0.13.md for a complete list.
Deprecated and removed features:
--------------------------------
* All internal use of bits.h has been eliminated. The file will be removed.
Do not use: hexdigit(), error_ptr(), error_descrition() and it_error()
* lh_abort() is deprecated. It will be removed.
Behavior changes:
-----------------
* Tighten the number parsing algorithm to raise errors instead of truncating
the results. For example 12.3.4 or 2015-01-15, which now return null.
See commit 99d8fc
* Use size_t for array length and size. Platforms where sizeof(size_t) != sizeof(int) may not be backwards compatible
See commits 45c56b, 92e9a5 and others.
* Check for failure when allocating memory, returning NULL and errno=ENOMEM.
See commit 2149a04.
* Change json_object_object_add() return type from void to int, and will return -1 on failures, instead of exiting. (Note: this is not an ABI change)
New features:
-------------
* We're aiming to follow RFC 7159 now.
* Add a couple of additional option to json_object_to_json_string_ext:
JSON_C_TO_STRING_PRETTY_TAB
JSON_C_TO_STRING_NOSLASHESCAPE
* Add a json_object_object_add_ex() function to allow for performance
improvements when certain constraints are known to be true.
* Make serialization format of doubles configurable, in two different ways:
Call json_object_set_serializer with json_object_double_to_json_string and a custom
format on each double object, or
Call json_c_set_serialization_double_format() to set a global or thread-wide format.
* Add utility function for comparing json_objects - json_object_equal()
* Add a way to copy entire object trees: json_object_deep_copy()
* Add json_object_set_<type> function to modify the value of existing json_object's
without the need to recreate them. Also add a json_object_int_inc function to
adjust an int's value.
* Add support for JSON pointer, RFC 6901. See json_pointer.h
* Add a json_util_get_last_err() function to retrieve the string describing the
cause of errors, instead of printing to stderr.
* Add perllike hash function for strings, and json_global_set_string_hash() 8f8d03d
* Add a json_c_visit() function to provide a way to iterate over a tree of json-c objects.
Notable bug fixes and other improvements:
-----------------------------------------
* Make reference increment and decrement atomic to allow passing json objects between threads.
* Fix json_object_object_foreach to avoid uninitialized variable warnings.
* Improve performance by removing unneeded data items from hashtable code and reducing duplicate hash computation.
* Improve performance by storing small strings inside json_object
* Improve performance of json_object_to_json_string by removing variadic printf. commit 9ff0f49
* Issue #371: fix parsing of "-Infinity", and avoid needlessly copying the input when doing so.

Build changes:
--------------
* Add Appveyor and Travis build support
* Switch to using CMake when building on Windows with Visual Studio.
A dynamic .dll is generated instead of a .lib
config.h is now generated, config.h.win32 should no longer be manually copied
* Add support for MacOS through CMake too.
* Enable silent build by default
* Link against libm when needed
* Add support for building with AddressSanitizer
* Add support for building with Clang
* Add a --enable-threading configure option, and only use the (slower) __sync_add_and_fetch()/__sync_sub_and_fetch() function when it is specified.

0.12.1
======
* Minimal changes to address compile issues.
0.12
====
* Address security issues:
* CVE-2013-6371: hash collision denial of service
* CVE-2013-6370: buffer overflow if size_t is larger than int
* Avoid potential overflow in json_object_get_double
* Eliminate the mc_abort() function and MC_ABORT macro.
* Make the json_tokener_errors array local. It has been deprecated for
a while, and json_tokener_error_desc() should be used instead.
* change the floating point output format to %.17g so values with
more than 6 digits show up in the output.
* Remove the old libjson.so name compatibility support. The library is
only created as libjson-c.so now and headers are only installed
into the ${prefix}/json-c directory.
* When supported by the linker, add the -Bsymbolic-functions flag.
* Various changes to fix the build on MSVC.
* Make strict mode more strict:
* number must not start with 0
* no single-quote strings
* no comments
* trailing char not allowed
* only allow lowercase literals
* Added a json_object_new_double_s() convenience function to allow
an exact string representation of a double to be specified when
creating the object and use it in json_tokener_parse_ex() so
a re-serialized object more exactly matches the input.
* Add support NaN and Infinity
0.11
====
* IMPORTANT: the name of the library has changed to libjson-c.so and
the header files are now in include/json-c.
The pkgconfig name has also changed from json to json-c.
You should change your build to use appropriate -I and -l options.
A compatibility shim is in place so builds using the old name will
continue to work, but that will be removed in the next release.
* Maximum recursion depth is now a runtime option.
json_tokener_new() is provided for compatibility.
json_tokener_new_ex(depth)
* Include json_object_iterator.h in the installed headers.
* Add support for building on Android.
* Rewrite json_object_object_add to replace just the value if the key already exists so keys remain valid.
* Make it safe to delete keys while iterating with the json_object_object_foreach macro.
* Add a json_set_serializer() function to allow the string output of a json_object to be customized.
* Make float parsing locale independent.
* Add a json_tokener_set_flags() function and a JSON_TOKENER_STRICT flag.
* Enable -Werror when building.
* speed improvements to parsing 64-bit integers on systems with working sscanf
* Add a json_object_object_length function.
* Fix a bug (buffer overrun) when expanding arrays to more than 64 entries.
0.10
====
* Add a json_object_to_json_string_ext() function to allow output to be
formatted in a more human readable form.
* Add json_object_object_get_ex(), a NULL-safe get object method, to be able
to distinguish between a key not present and the value being NULL.
* Add an alternative iterator implementation, see json_object_iterator.h
* Make json_object_iter public to enable external use of the
json_object_object_foreachC macro.
* Add a printbuf_memset() function to provide an efficient way to set and
append things like whitespace indentation.
* Adjust json_object_is_type and json_object_get_type so they return
json_type_null for NULL objects and handle NULL passed to
json_objct_object_get().
* Rename boolean type to json_bool.
* Fix various compile issues for Visual Studio and MinGW.
* Allow json_tokener_parse_ex() to be re-used to parse multiple object.
Also, fix some parsing issues with capitalized hexadecimal numbers and
number in E notation.
* Add json_tokener_get_error() and json_tokener_error_desc() to better
encapsulate the process of retrieving errors while parsing.
* Various improvements to the documentation of many functions.
* Add new json_object_array_sort() function.
* Fix a bug in json_object_get_int(), which would incorrectly return 0
when called on a string type object.
Eric Haszlakiewicz
* Add a json_type_to_name() function.
Eric Haszlakiewicz
* Add a json_tokener_parse_verbose() function.
