3156</ul><h3>2.1.0 and 1.8.8: June 29 2000</h3><ul>
3157  <li>1.8.8 is mostly a commodity package for upgrading to libxml2 according
3158    to <a href="upgrade.html">new instructions</a>. It fixes a nasty problem
3159    about &amp;#38; charref parsing</li>
3160  <li>2.1.0 also ease the upgrade from libxml v1 to the recent version. it
3161    also contains numerous fixes and enhancements:
3162    <ul>
3163      <li>added xmlStopParser() to stop parsing</li>
3164      <li>improved a lot parsing speed when there is large CDATA blocks</li>
3165      <li>includes XPath patches provided by Picdar Technology</li>

3169      <li>lot of various fixes</li>
3170    </ul>
3171  </li>
3172</ul><h3>2.0.0: Apr 12 2000</h3><ul>
3173  <li>First public release of libxml2. If you are using libxml, it's a good
3174    idea to check the 1.x to 2.x upgrade instructions. NOTE: while initially
3175    scheduled for Apr 3 the release occurred only on Apr 12 due to massive
3176    workload.</li>
3177  <li>The include are now located under $prefix/include/libxml (instead of
3178    $prefix/include/gnome-xml), they also are referenced by
3179    <pre>#include &lt;libxml/xxx.h&gt;</pre>
3180    <p>instead of</p>
3181    <pre>#include "xxx.h"</pre>
3182  </li>
3183  <li>a new URI module for parsing URIs and following strictly RFC 2396</li>
3184  <li>the memory allocation routines used by libxml can now be overloaded
3185    dynamically by using xmlMemSetup()</li>
3186  <li>The previously CVS only tool tester has been renamed
3187    <strong>xmllint</strong> and is now installed as part of the libxml2
3188    package</li>
3189  <li>The I/O interface has been revamped. There is now ways to plug in
3190    specific I/O modules, either at the URI scheme detection level using
3191    xmlRegisterInputCallbacks()  or by passing I/O functions when creating a
3192    parser context using xmlCreateIOParserCtxt()</li>
3193  <li>there is a C preprocessor macro LIBXML_VERSION providing the version
3194    number of the libxml module in use</li>
3195  <li>a number of optional features of libxml can now be excluded at
3196    configure time (FTP/HTTP/HTML/XPath/Debug)</li>
3197</ul><h3>2.0.0beta: Mar 14 2000</h3><ul>
3198  <li>This is a first Beta release of libxml version 2</li>
3199  <li>It's available only from<a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">xmlsoft.org
3200    FTP</a>, it's packaged as libxml2-2.0.0beta and available as tar and
3201  RPMs</li>
3202  <li>This version is now the head in the Gnome CVS base, the old one is
3203    available under the tag LIB_XML_1_X</li>
3204  <li>This includes a very large set of changes. From a  programmatic point
3205    of view applications should not have to be modified too much, check the
3206    <a href="upgrade.html">upgrade page</a></li>
3207  <li>Some interfaces may changes (especially a bit about encoding).</li>
3208  <li>the updates includes:
3209    <ul>
3210      <li>fix I18N support. ISO-Latin-x/UTF-8/UTF-16 (nearly) seems correctly
3211        handled now</li>
3212      <li>Better handling of entities, especially well-formedness checking
3213        and proper PEref extensions in external subsets</li>
3214      <li>DTD conditional sections</li>
3215      <li>Validation now correctly handle entities content</li>
3216      <li><a href="http://rpmfind.net/tools/gdome/messages/0039.html">change
3217        structures to accommodate DOM</a></li>
3218    </ul>
3219  </li>
3220  <li>Serious progress were made toward compliance, <a href="conf/result.html">here are the result of the test</a> against the
3221    OASIS testsuite (except the Japanese tests since I don't support that
3222    encoding yet). This URL is rebuilt every couple of hours using the CVS
3223    head version.</li>
3224</ul><h3>1.8.7: Mar 6 2000</h3><ul>
3225  <li>This is a bug fix release:</li>
3226  <li>It is possible to disable the ignorable blanks heuristic used by
3227    libxml-1.x, a new function  xmlKeepBlanksDefault(0) will allow this. Note
3228    that for adherence to XML spec, this behaviour will be disabled by
3229    default in 2.x . The same function will allow to keep compatibility for
3230    old code.</li>
3231  <li>Blanks in &lt;a&gt;  &lt;/a&gt; constructs are not ignored anymore,
3232    avoiding heuristic is really the Right Way :-\</li>
3233  <li>The unchecked use of snprintf which was breaking libxml-1.8.6
3234    compilation on some platforms has been fixed</li>
3235  <li>nanoftp.c nanohttp.c: Fixed '#' and '?' stripping when processing
3236  URIs</li>
3237</ul><h3>1.8.6: Jan 31 2000</h3><ul>
3238  <li>added a nanoFTP transport module, debugged until the new version of <a href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/rpmfind.html">rpmfind</a> can use
3239    it without troubles</li>
3240</ul><h3>1.8.5: Jan 21 2000</h3><ul>
3241  <li>adding APIs to parse a well balanced chunk of XML (production <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#NT-content">[43] content</a> of the
3242    XML spec)</li>
3243  <li>fixed a hideous bug in xmlGetProp pointed by Rune.Djurhuus@fast.no</li>
3244  <li>Jody Goldberg &lt;jgoldberg@home.com&gt; provided another patch trying
3245    to solve the zlib checks problems</li>
3246  <li>The current state in gnome CVS base is expected to ship as 1.8.5 with
3247    gnumeric soon</li>
3248</ul><h3>1.8.4: Jan 13 2000</h3><ul>
3249  <li>bug fixes, reintroduced xmlNewGlobalNs(), fixed xmlNewNs()</li>
3250  <li>all exit() call should have been removed from libxml</li>

3258  <li>added xmlRemoveProp(), xmlRemoveID() and xmlRemoveRef()</li>
3259  <li>Fixed bugs in xmlNewNs()</li>
3260  <li>External entity loading code has been revamped, now it uses
3261    xmlLoadExternalEntity(), some fix on entities processing were added</li>
3262  <li>cleaned up WIN32 includes of socket stuff</li>
3263</ul><h3>1.8.2: Dec 21 1999</h3><ul>
3264  <li>I got another problem with includes and C++, I hope this issue is fixed
3265    for good this time</li>
3266  <li>Added a few tree modification functions: xmlReplaceNode,
3267    xmlAddPrevSibling, xmlAddNextSibling, xmlNodeSetName and
3268    xmlDocSetRootElement</li>
3269  <li>Tried to improve the HTML output with help from <a href="mailto:clahey@umich.edu">Chris Lahey</a></li>
3270</ul><h3>1.8.1: Dec 18 1999</h3><ul>
3271  <li>various patches to avoid troubles when using libxml with C++ compilers
3272    the "namespace" keyword and C escaping in include files</li>
3273  <li>a problem in one of the core macros IS_CHAR was corrected</li>
3274  <li>fixed a bug introduced in 1.8.0 breaking default namespace processing,
3275    and more specifically the Dia application</li>
3276  <li>fixed a posteriori validation (validation after parsing, or by using a
3277    Dtd not specified in the original document)</li>
3278  <li>fixed a bug in</li>
3279</ul><h3>1.8.0: Dec 12 1999</h3><ul>
3280  <li>cleanup, especially memory wise</li>
3281  <li>the parser should be more reliable, especially the HTML one, it should
3282    not crash, whatever the input !</li>
3283  <li>Integrated various patches, especially a speedup improvement for large
3284    dataset from <a href="mailto:cnygard@bellatlantic.net">Carl Nygard</a>,
3285    configure with --with-buffers to enable them.</li>
3286  <li>attribute normalization, oops should have been added long ago !</li>
3287  <li>attributes defaulted from DTDs should be available, xmlSetProp() now
3288    does entities escaping by default.</li>
3289</ul><h3>1.7.4: Oct 25 1999</h3><ul>
3290  <li>Lots of HTML improvement</li>
3291  <li>Fixed some errors when saving both XML and HTML</li>
3292  <li>More examples, the regression tests should now look clean</li>

3297    were it's not available, fixed</li>
3298</ul><h3>1.7.1: Sep 24 1999</h3><ul>
3299  <li>The basic type for strings manipulated by libxml has been renamed in
3300    1.7.1 from <strong>CHAR</strong> to <strong>xmlChar</strong>. The reason
3301    is that CHAR was conflicting with a predefined type on Windows. However
3302    on non WIN32 environment, compatibility is provided by the way of  a
3303    <strong>#define </strong>.</li>
3304  <li>Changed another error : the use of a structure field called errno, and
3305    leading to troubles on platforms where it's a macro</li>
3306</ul><h3>1.7.0: Sep 23 1999</h3><ul>
3307  <li>Added the ability to fetch remote DTD or parsed entities, see the <a href="html/libxml-nanohttp.html">nanohttp</a> module.</li>
3308  <li>Added an errno to report errors by another mean than a simple printf
3309    like callback</li>
3310  <li>Finished ID/IDREF support and checking when validation</li>
3311  <li>Serious memory leaks fixed (there is now a <a href="html/libxml-xmlmemory.html">memory wrapper</a> module)</li>
3312  <li>Improvement of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XPath</a>
3313    implementation</li>
3314  <li>Added an HTML parser front-end</li>
