1 Revision history for JSON-MaybeXS
4 - fix test that fails when JSON::XS is installed, but below version 3.0
8 - document when is_bool became available
9 - now favouring Cpanel::JSON::XS over JSON::XS in more situations (the former
10 is always added to prereqs when a compiler is available, although JSON::XS
11 is still used at runtime if new enough and Cpanel::JSON::XS is not
12 installed). This makes boolean handling more predictable and consistent.
15 - added true and false subs so they can be used via JSON::MaybeXS rather than
16 only JSON() exported sub.
19 - use bundled ExtUtils::HasCompiler rather than ExtUtils::CBuilder to detect
20 compiler availability.
21 - clarify exported JSON in documentation
24 - fix tests to no longer rely on . being in @INC (RT#120404)
27 - added an INSTALLATION section to documentation, to clarify the use of
28 dynamic prerequisites in Makefile.PL
29 - minimize prereqs listed in META.json to avoid giving the appearance of XS
30 prerequisites, and confusing static inspection tools such as metacpan.org.
33 - no changes since 1.003006_001
35 1.003006_001 - 2016-06-28
36 - bump prereq on JSON::PP, to ensure we get the fix for parsing utf8-encoded
37 values (in JSON::PP 2.27300)
38 - we now always upgrade JSON::XS if it is installed and below version 3.0,
39 due to changes in handling booleans
40 - remove test dependency on Test::Without::Module (RT#115394)
43 - fix x_contributors metadata that was killing metacpan (see
44 https://github.com/CPAN-API/cpan-api/issues/401)
47 - caveat added to documentation about type checking the object returned by
48 new() (John SJ Anderson, RT#102733)
51 - ensure an old Cpanel::JSON::XS is upgraded if it is too old, as it will
52 always be used in preference to JSON::XS
53 - avoid "JSON::XS::Boolean::* redefined" warnings caused by an old JSON::XS
54 loaded at the same time as a newer Cpanel::JSON::XS
57 - correctly fix boolean interoperability with older Cpanel::JSON::MaybeXS
60 - fix boolean interoperability with older Cpanel::JSON::MaybeXS
62 1.003_000 - 2014-10-30
63 - add :legacy tag to support legacy apps
66 - add some additional test diagnostics, to help find bad version combinations
70 - fix "can I haz XS?" logic precedence in Makefile.PL
71 - added the ':all' export tag
72 - removed dependency on Safe::Isa
73 - repository moved to git://git.shadowcat.co.uk/p5sagit/JSON-MaybeXS.git
76 - support use of PUREPERL_ONLY in Makefile.PL to avoid adding an XS
78 - new is_bool() interface
81 - document how to use booleans
84 - more metadata fiddling, to remove the Cpanel::JSON::XS dependency visible
85 to static analyzers (the prequisites at install time remain unchanged)
88 - fix installation on older perls with an older ExtUtils::MakeMaker
92 - Now also supports JSON::XS, when available: Cpanel::JSON::XS will only be
93 installed when there is no XS backend already installed; Cpanel::JSON::XS
94 will be used over JSON::XS when both are installed.
97 - Add a constructor for people who want to forget how silly the JSON API is
100 - Released on an unsuspecting world.
