1.1 misho 37: Release 2.0.1 Tue June 5 2007
1.1.1.2 ! misho 38: - Fixed bugs #1515266, #1515600: The character data handler's calling
1.1 misho 39: of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was

42: some character constants to be ASCII encoded.
43: - Minor cleanups of the test harness.
44: - Fixed xmlwf bug #1513566: "out of memory" error on file size zero.
45: - Fixed outline.c bug #1543233: missing a final XML_ParserFree() call.
46: - Fixes and improvements for Windows platform:
1.1.1.2 ! misho 47: bugs #1409451, #1476160, #1548182, #1602769, #1717322.

49: HP-UX, Tru64, Solaris 9: patch #1437840, bug #1196180.
50: All Unix: #1554618 (refreshed config.sub/config.guess).
51: #1490371, #1613457: support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT,
52: without relying on GNU-Make specific features.
53: #1647805: Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler.
54: - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly:
55: bugs #1408143, #1535603, #1536684.
56: - Added Open Watcom support: patch #1523242.
57:
58: Release 2.0.0 Wed Jan 11 2006
59: - We no longer use the "check" library for C unit testing; we
60: always use the (partial) internal implementation of the API.
61: - Report XML_NS setting via XML_GetFeatureList().
62: - Fixed headers for use from C++.
63: - XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber()
64: now return unsigned integers.
65: - Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for
66: byte indexes and line/column numbers.
67: - Updated to use libtool 1.5.22 (the most recent).
68: - Added support for AmigaOS.
1.1.1.2 ! misho 69: - Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: #1006708,
! 70: #1021776, #1023646, #1114960, #1156398, #1221160, #1271642.
1.1 misho 71:
72: Release 1.95.8 Fri Jul 23 2004
73: - Major new feature: suspend/resume. Handlers can now request
74: that a parse be suspended for later resumption or aborted
75: altogether. See "Temporarily Stopping Parsing" in the
76: documentation for more details.
77: - Some mostly minor bug fixes, but compilation should no
78: longer generate warnings on most platforms. SF issues
1.1.1.2 ! misho 79: include: #827319, #840173, #846309, #888329, #896188, #923913,

1.1 misho 81:
82: Release 1.95.7 Mon Oct 20 2003
83: - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many
84: times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy.
85: - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling
86: convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used
87: to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback
88: implementations in code compiled with a calling convention
89: other than the default convention for the host platform.
90: - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated
91: expat_config.h header. This is useful for applications
92: which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.
1.1.1.2 ! misho 93: - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #458907, #609603,

114: - Finally fixed bug where default handler would report DTD
115: events that were already handled by another handler.
116: Initial patch contributed by Darryl Miles.
117: - Removed unnecessary DllMain() function that caused static
118: linking into a DLL to be difficult.

145: version of the library; the DLLs are named libexpatw.dll.
