- Only check for missing Module::Install related modules in Makefile.PL
0.61 2017-04-10
- Avoid relying on current working directory being in @INC
- Documentation typo fixes by Andreas Guldstrand (COFFEE)
0.60 2013-09-24
- added valid_utf8()
- skip copy-on-write tests on Perl 5.19
0.59 2013-03-28
- No functional changes in this release
- 5.17.7 introduced a new copy-on-write mechanism which was disabled in
5.17.10 due too many rough edges. Skip one test if running on these Perl
versions.
0.58 2012-12-15
- decode_utf8()/encode_utf8() now tries to avoid copying values returned
from a subroutine, ARRAY functions (delete, pop, shift, splice) and HASH
functions (delete).
Following examples is zero-copy if the returned value is a string:
- decode_utf8(function());
- decode_utf8(delete $hash{Key});
- deocde_utf8(shift @array);
- Optimized decoding of upgraded octets.
- Removed suffix "in UTF-8 encoding form" from warnings messages
0.57 2012-11-05
- Permit isolated usage of sub-categories non_unicode, nonchar and surrogate
on Perl 5.14 or greater.
0.56 2012-11-04
- Added a third argument to $fallback, the position of octet/character at
which the error occurred.
0.55 2011-12-22
- Fixed an assertion failure that was triggered by Perl_sv_catpvn_flags()
when perl was compiled with DEBUGGING.
0.54 2011-12-21
- Fixed a bug where GET magic would be triggered twice in decode_utf8 if the
provided $octets scalar had the SvUTF8 flag turned on.
- Clarified $fallback return values.
0.53 2011-11-23
- Previous release introduced a bug in utf8_skip(), fixed the bug and
increased test coverage.
0.52 2011-11-22
- There are no functional changes introduced by this release.
- Prefixed internal function names to avoid potential future name clashes.
- Minor refactor of internal function utf8_skip().
- Added a CONFORMANCE section to POD.
- Moved Encode.pm comparison to it's own section COMPARISON.
0.51 2011-11-10
- Implemented support for the nonchar, surrogate and non_unicode
sub-categories of utf8 warning on Perl 5.14 or greater.
0.50 2011-11-04
- First stable release. API is declared as stable. Warning messages might
undergo a few changes before 1.00 release.
0.01_11 2011-11-03
- Only use XSTARG on well-formed UTF-8 strings
0.01_10 2011-11-03
- Corrected POD commands and typos in documentation.
0.01_09 2011-11-03
- Implemented support for error-handling mechanism
0.01_08 2011-10-18
- Refactored internal function utf8_check() for better performance
0.01_07 2011-10-11
- Fixed detection of non-shortest form UTF-X on perl versions <= 5.8.6
- Fixed utf8_length() invocation, don't pass the interpreter context
- Shortened the Encode.pm comparison
0.01_06 2011-09-24
- Report character position in encode_utf8() warning messages
- Added a comparison with Encode.pm
0.01_05 2011-09-20
- Correct maximal subpart implementation
An initial subsequence of a ill-formed sequence is not maximal subpart.
<C0 80> -> <FFFD FFFD>
<ED A0 80> -> <FFFD FFFD FFFD>
<EF BF BF> -> <FFFD>
<F4 80 80> -> <FFFD>
<F4 90 80 80> -> <FFFD FFFD FFFD FFFD>
Unicode v6.0:
D93b Maximal subpart of an ill-formed subsequence: The longest code unit
subsequence starting at an unconvertible offset that is either:
a. the initial subsequence of a well-formed code unit sequence, or
b. a subsequence of length one.
0.01_04 2011-09-17
- croak if Perl's internal representation of wide characters is ill-formed.
- Fixed a bug in replacement handling.
- Added a test for replacement handling.
0.01_03 2011-09-16
- Removed the "Can't represent restricted code point" error, code points
above U+10FFFF is reported as "Can't represent super code point".
- Instead of just croaking use the 'utf8' warnings category and
leave the choise of error reporting to the user.
- Maximal subpart of an ill-formed subsequence is replaced with U+FFFD as
recomended by Unicode.
0.01_02 2011-09-13
- Changed wording in encoding exception messages from "Can't map \w+ code point"
to "Can't represent \w+ code point",
- Added a taint test.
- Added a leaks test.
0.01_01 2011-09-12
- Initial CPAN release.
