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>

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>
