//[changes_last_version```
[clog 1.07.2010 - version 0.9]
Major release, featuring extended and improved Unicode support, miscellaneous performance improvements, bug fixes and more.
* Major Unicode improvements:
# Introduced encoding support (automatic/manual encoding detection on load, manual encoding selection on save, conversion from/to UTF8, UTF16 LE/BE, UTF32 LE/BE)
# Introduced wchar_t mode (you can set PUGIXML_WCHAR_MODE define to switch pugixml internal encoding from UTF8 to wchar_t; all functions are switched to their Unicode variants)
# Load/save functions now support wide streams
* Bug fixes:
# Fixed document corruption on failed parsing bug
# XPath string <-> number conversion improvements (increased precision, fixed crash for huge numbers)
# Improved DOCTYPE parsing: now parser recognizes all well-formed DOCTYPE declarations
# Fixed xml_attribute::as_uint() for large numbers (i.e. 2^32-1)
* Specification changes:
# parse() API changed to load_buffer/load_buffer_inplace/load_buffer_inplace_own; load_buffer APIs do not require zero-terminated strings.
# Renamed as_utf16 to as_wide
# Changed xml_node::offset_debug return type and xml_parse_result::offset type to ptrdiff_t
# Nodes/attributes with empty names are now printed as :anonymous
* Performance improvements:
# Optimized document parsing and saving
# Changed internal memory management: internal allocator is used for both metadata and name/value data; allocated pages are deleted if all allocations from them are deleted
# Optimized memory consumption: sizeof(xml_node_struct) reduced from 40 bytes to 32 bytes on x86
# Optimized debug mode parsing/saving by order of magnitude
* Miscellaneous:
# All STL includes except <exception> in pugixml.hpp are replaced with forward declarations
* Compatibility:
# parse() and as_utf16 are left for compatibility (these functions are deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0)
# Wildcard functions, document_order/precompute_document_order functions, format_write_bom_utf8 and parse_wnorm_attribute flags are deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0
# xpath_type_t enumeration was renamed to xpath_value_type; xpath_type_t is deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0
```//]
[clog 8.11.2009 - version 0.5]
Major bugfix release. Changes:
* XPath bugfixes:
# Fixed translate(), lang() and concat() functions (infinite loops/crashes)
# Fixed compilation of queries with empty literal strings ("")
# Fixed axis tests: they never add empty nodes/attributes to the resulting node set now
# Fixed string-value evaluation for node-set (the result excluded some text descendants)
# Fixed self:: axis (it behaved like ancestor-or-self::)
# Fixed following:: and preceding:: axes (they included descendent and ancestor nodes, respectively)
# Minor fix for namespace-uri() function (namespace declaration scope includes the parent element of namespace declaration attribute)
# Some incorrect queries are no longer parsed now (i.e. foo: *)
# Fixed text()/etc. node test parsing bug (i.e. foo[text()] failed to compile)
# Fixed root step (/) - it now selects empty node set if query is evaluated on empty node
# Fixed string to number conversion ("123 " converted to NaN, "123 .456" converted to 123.456 - now the results are 123 and NaN, respectively)
# Node set copying now preserves sorted type; leads to better performance on some queries
* Miscellaneous bugfixes:
# Fixed xml_node::offset_debug for PI nodes
# Added empty attribute checks to xml_node::remove_attribute
# Fixed node_pi and node_declaration copying
# Const-correctness fixes
* Specification changes:
# xpath_node::select_nodes() and related functions now throw exception if expression return type is not node set (instead of assertion)
# xml_node::traverse() now sets depth to -1 for both begin() and end() callbacks (was 0 at begin() and -1 at end())
# In case of non-raw node printing a newline is output after PCDATA inside nodes if the PCDATA has siblings
# UTF8 -> wchar_t conversion now considers 5-byte UTF8-like sequences as invalid
* New features:
# Added xpath_node_set::operator[] for index-based iteration
# Added xpath_query::return_type()
# Added getter accessors for memory-management functions
[clog 17.09.2009 - version 0.42]
Maintenance release. Changes:
* Bug fixes:
# Fixed deallocation in case of custom allocation functions or if delete[] / free are incompatible
# XPath parser fixed for incorrect queries (i.e. incorrect XPath queries should now always fail to compile)
# Const-correctness fixes for find_child_by_attribute
# Improved compatibility (miscellaneous warning fixes, fixed cstring include dependency for GCC)
# Fixed iterator begin/end and print function to work correctly for empty nodes
* New features:
# Added PUGIXML_API/PUGIXML_CLASS/PUGIXML_FUNCTION configuration macros to control class/function attributes
# Added xml_attribute::set_value overloads for different types
8.02.2009 - v0.41
Maintenance release. Changes:
* Bug fixes:
# Fixed bug with node printing (occasionally some content was not written to output stream)
[clog 18.01.2009 - version 0.4]
Changes:
* Bug fixes:
# Documentation fix in samples for parse() with manual lifetime control
# Fixed document order sorting in XPath (it caused wrong order of nodes after xpath_node_set::sort and wrong results of some XPath queries)
* Node printing changes:
# Single quotes are no longer escaped when printing nodes
# Symbols in second half of ASCII table are no longer escaped when printing nodes; because of this, format_utf8 flag is deleted as it's no longer needed and format_write_bom is renamed to format_write_bom_utf8.
# Reworked node printing - now it works via xml_writer interface; implementations for FILE* and std::ostream are available. As a side-effect, xml_document::save_file now works without STL.
* New features:
# Added unsigned integer support for attributes (xml_attribute::as_uint, xml_attribute::operator=)
# Now document declaration (<?xml ...?>) is parsed as node with type node_declaration when parse_declaration flag is specified (access to encoding/version is performed as if they were attributes, i.e. doc.child("xml").attribute("version").as_float()); corresponding flags for node printing were also added
# Added support for custom memory management (see set_memory_management_functions for details)
# Implemented node/attribute copying (see xml_node::insert_copy_* and xml_node::append_copy for details)
# Added find_child_by_attribute and find_child_by_attribute_w to simplify parsing code in some cases (i.e. COLLADA files)
# Added file offset information querying for debugging purposes (now you're able to determine exact location of any xml_node in parsed file, see xml_node::offset_debug for details)
# Improved error handling for parsing - now load(), load_file() and parse() return xml_parse_result, which contains error code and last parsed offset; this does not break old interface as xml_parse_result can be implicitly casted to bool.
[clog 31.10.2007 - version 0.34]
Maintenance release. Changes:
* Bug fixes:
# Fixed bug with loading from text-mode iostreams
# Fixed leak when transfer_ownership is true and parsing is failing
# Fixed bug in saving (\r and \n are now escaped in attribute values)
# Renamed free() to destroy() - some macro conflicts were reported
* New features:
# Improved compatibility (supported Digital Mars C++, MSVC 6, CodeWarrior 8, PGI C++, Comeau, supported PS3 and XBox360)
# PUGIXML_NO_EXCEPTION flag for platforms without exception handling

# Added transfer ownership parsing mode

# Refactored and sped up parsing core
# Improved standard compliancy
# Added XPath implementation
# Fixed several bugs
