Revision history for Perl extension Compress::LZF
3.8 Tue Jun 30 01:50:27 CEST 2015
- update liblzf to version 3.8 (no bugfixes).
- support perl multicore specification (http://perlmulticore.schmorp.de/)
for compression and decompression.
- dynamically allocate space for best compression, instead of allocating
it on the stack.
3.7 Sun Aug 25 20:12:58 CEST 2013
- update liblzf to version 3.7 (speedups, no bugfixes).
- add _best versions that use lzf_c_best.
3.43 Mon Dec 29 09:46:17 CET 2008
- port to perls that pointlessly have enabled windows process
emulation on unix (broguht to my attention by Guillaume Rousse).
3.42 Wed Dec 17 01:35:47 CET 2008
- grr, require_pv doesn't work either, roll our own.
- name the correct function serialiser function name
in error messages.
3.41 Tue Sep 23 01:59:02 CEST 2008
- it would be nice if the fact that load_module eats
the module name were documented :(, in any case,
switching to require_pv fixes all the mysterious
crashes.
- be more forgiving instead of crashing when the
serialiser doesn't return a string.
3.4 Fri Sep 5 17:27:10 CEST 2008
- update to liblzf-3.4.
3.11 Wed Jan 9 22:43:17 CET 2008
- add PUTBACK/SPAGAIN around need_storable calls, fixing
a potential stack change problem when loading the serialiser.
3.1 Fri Nov 30 11:35:47 CET 2007
- update to liblzf-3.1.
2.0 Tue Nov 13 22:49:57 CET 2007

1.8 Wed Apr 18 14:40:20 CEST 2007
- properly downgrade all scalars to octet form when
required.
- strings potentially containing non-latin1 characters
get frozen via the serialiser.
1.71 Fri Feb 16 23:09:04 CET 2007
- fix memory leak when feeding illegal data to decompress.
- allocate hash dynamically - slower, but having 256k of stack
is not ubiquitiously available.

- fix buffer overflows in decompress header.
1.65 Fri Jul 7 17:42:12 CEST 2006

- changed mstore to net_mstore default.
1.51 Thu Apr 14 18:59:03 CEST 2005
- upped compress size limit from 64MB to 2GB (reported
by Jan Sundberg, who actually ran into the limit :).

nobody spotted thta braino.
1.5 Tue Mar 8 21:04:23 CET 2005

- yet another minor reference copying vs. inc bug.
0.1046 Fri Jan 17 08:14:30 CET 2003
- added debian files, realized that debians package management
is quite useless.
0.1045 Thu Sep 5 23:54:11 CEST 2002
- always make a stringified copy of the argument for
sfreeze, so the assertion "sfreeze makes a string out
of it's argument" holds even for integers.
- "simple" objects now include PVIV and PVNV.
0.1044 Thu Sep 5 06:44:13 CEST 2002
- MINOR: add set_serializer interface.
0.1043 Sat May 18 23:40:01 CEST 2002
- bugfix when freezing non-SVt_PV-PV's.
- thanks to all cpan-testers ;)
0.1042 Fri May 17 22:09:08 CEST 2002
- removed some debugging code that kept sfreeze from properly
0.1041 Wed Apr 10 05:12:47 CEST 2002
- sthaw now returns a copy of it's argument instead of the argument
itself in the pass-through case, as this is the required semantics
for perl.
0.104 Tue Mar 26 18:48:02 CET 2002
- fix more logic bugs. never wrote functions with such contorted
logic :( maybe I should just ignore the idea of saving single bytes
whereever possible to make this module much cleaner...
0.103 Sun Mar 3 05:39:00 CET 2002
- try to handle magical objects that are no references
by creating a referebce to them and passing this ref to
storable.
0.102 Wed Feb 27 21:50:18 CET 2002
- handle magic in sfreeze.
0.101 Fri Feb 22 01:15:25 CET 2002

0.03 Sat Jan 13 19:19:15 CET 2001

0.01
