[libxml-devel] Version 2.0.3 Released
Charlie Savage
fix and lots of little fixes that cleanup most of the old issues on
RubyForge and GitHub.
The big fix is supporting the use of libxml-ruby in native background
Ruby threads. Previously, the use of libxml-ruby in background threads
in Ruby 1.9.x and higher would often cause segmentation faults.
And for the little fixes, please see below.
Thanks,
Charlie
------------
* The biggest change in this release is supporting the use of
libxml-ruby in native background Ruby threads. Previously, the use of
libxml-ruby in background threads in Ruby 1.9.x and higher would often
cause segmentation faults. This has now been fixed (Charlie Savage).
* Update Reader#expand so that returned node correctly remembers its
encoding in Ruby 1.9.x (zerebubuth).
* Add check to verify a node has not been deleted. This can happen when
a ruby variable holds a reference to a child node that gets freed
when its parent gets freed. Previously when this happened a
segmentation fault would occur, now an exception is raised (Charlie
Savage, fixes
RubyForge #26839.
* Do not unlink nodes before internal validations have run - avoids
segmentation faults caused by freeing a node twice (Charlie Savage).
* Add support for Document#canonicalization (Victor Lin).
* Fix memory leak in Reader#lookup_namespace (Charlie Savage).
* Fix memory leak in Reader#[] (Nathan Kriege).
* Fix usage of @io instance variable (Jeffrey Taylor)
* Removed old sax error handling code that has been fixed in newer
versions of libxml (Charlie Savage).
* Code cleanup - remove unused variables and commented out code (Charlie
Savage)
* Minor text changes and documentation fixes (Charlie Savage).
* Fix documentation error (fixes RubyForge #26888).
* Update documentation for Document#validation* methods (fixes RubyForge
#24833).
* Update documentation and test (fixes Ruby Forge Issue #28770).
* Updated documentation in README (Anurag Priyam):
1. rake doc does not work; use rake rdoc.
2. gem mislav-hanna does not exist; use hanna.
3. rake rdoc 'depends' on hanna; no need of RDOCOPTS
4. Point to the github issue tracker instead of Ruby Forge
5. Point to the github (gh-pages) site for docs
* Add tc_error to test suite (Charlie Savage).
* Add sax test (Stanislav O.Pogrebnyak).
