|
||||
construction isn't implemented yet.
|
||||
The HTML tokenizer now conforms fully to HTML5. Several non-standard
|
||||
syntax warnings were removed. Note that HTML5 tree construction isn't
|
||||
implemented yet.
|
||||
|
||||
Binary compatibility is restricted to versions 2.14 or newer. On ELF
|
||||
systems, the soname was bumped from libxml2.so.2 to libxml2.so.16.
|
||||
|
||||
The serialization API will now take user-provided or default encodings
|
||||
into account when serializing attribute values, matching the
|
||||
serialization of text and avoiding unnecessary escaping.
|
||||
|
||||
The XML parser won't try to merge consecutive CDATA sections as before
|
||||
to align with web standards. Each CDATA section will create exactly one
|
||||
node or SAX callback.
|
||||
|
||||
Support for RELAX NG can now be disabled with a new configuration
|
||||
option independently of XML Schemas support. It is still enabled by
|
||||
default.

systems, the soname was bumped from libxml2.so.2 to libxml2.so.16.
|
||||
Parts of the xmllint executable were refactored, allowing the
|
||||
combination of more options. OOM errors should be reported reliably now.
|
||||
|
||||
Several improvements were made to the build systems. Meson support is
|
||||
mostly complete.
|

|
||||
Parts of the buffering code were reworked and simplified.
|
||||
|
||||
Overflow checks before reallocations were hardenend.
|
||||
|
||||
Some unprefixed symbols were renamed to avoid namespace pollution.
|

|

### New features
|
||||
|

Input callbacks can now be set on a parser context and an improved API
|

to create parser input is available.

taking a parser input object, were added:

A new API function xmlCtxtParseContent to parse XML content using an

existing parser context was added.
|

- xmlCtxtParseDocument

- xmlCtxtParseContent as replacement for xmlParseBalancedChunkMemory
|

and xmlParseInNodeContext
|

The xmlSave API now has additional options to replace global settings.
