Changes: + +* Compact mode: + . Introduced a new tree storage mode that takes significantly less memory (2-5x smaller DOM) at some performance cost. + . The mode can be enabled using `PUGIXML_COMPACT` define. + +* New integer parsing/formatting implementation: + . Functions that convert from and to integers (e.g. `as_int`/`set_value`) do not rely on CRT any more. + . New implementation is 3-5x faster and is always correct wrt overflow or underflow. This is a behavior change - where previously `as_uint()` would return UINT_MAX on a value "-1", it now returns 0. + +* New features: + . XPath objects (`xpath_query`, `xpath_node_set`, `xpath_variable_set`) are now movable if your compiler supports C++11. Additionally, `xpath_variable_set` is copyable. + . Added `format_indent_attributes` that makes the resulting XML friendlier to line diff/merge tools. + . Added a variant of `xml_node::attribute` function with a hint that can improve lookup performance. + . Custom allocation functions are now allowed (but not required) to throw instead of returning a null pointer. + +* Bug fixes: + . Fix Clang 3.7 crashes in out-of-memory cases (C++ DR 1748) + . Fix XPath crashes on SPARC64 (and other 32-bit architectures where doubles have to be aligned to 8 bytes) + . Fix xpath_node_set assignment to provide strong exception guarantee + . Fix saving for custom xml_writer implementations that can throw from write() + [[v1.6]] === v1.6 ^10.04.2015^ |
