Release 2.3.0 Thu March 25 2021
Bug fixes:
#438 When calling XML_ParseBuffer without a prior successful
call to
XML_GetBuffer as a user, no longer trigger undefined
behavior
(by adding an integer to a NULL pointer) but rather
return
XML_STATUS_ERROR and set the error code to (new) code
XML_ERROR_NO_BUFFER. Found by UBSan
(UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer)
of Clang 11 (but not Clang 9).
#444 xmlwf: Exit status 2 was used for both:
- malformed input files (documented) and
- invalid command-line arguments (undocumented).
The case of invalid command-line arguments now
has its own exit status 4, resolving the ambiguity.
Other changes:
#439 xmlwf: Add argument -k to allow continuing after
non-fatal errors
#439 xmlwf: Add section about exit status to the -h help
output
#422 #426 #447 Windows: Drop support for Visual Studio <=14.0/2015
#434 Windows: CMake: Detect unsupported Visual Studio at
configure time (rather than at compile time)
#382 #428 testrunner: Make verbose mode (argument "-v") report
about passed tests, and make default mode report about
failures, as well.
#442 CMake: Call "enable_language(CXX)" prior to tinkering
with CMAKE_CXX_* variables
#448 Document use of libexpat from a CMake-based project
#451 Autotools: Install CMake files as generated by CMake
3.19.6
so that users with "find_package(expat [..] CONFIG
[..])"
are served on distributions that are *not* using the
CMake
build system inside for libexpat packaging
#436 #437 Autotools: Drop obsolescent macro AC_HEADER_STDC
#450 #452 Autotools: Resolve use of obsolete macro
AC_CONFIG_HEADER
#441 Address compiler warnings
#443 Version info bumped from 7:12:6 to 8:0:7
due to addition of error code XML_ERROR_NO_BUFFER
(see https://verbump.de/ for what these numbers do)
Infrastructure:
#435 #446 Replace Travis CI by GitHub Actions
Special thanks to:
