| <dt><em>12 July 2002</em>, |
| Expat 1.95.4 released. |
| </dt> |
| <dd> |
| <ul> |
| <li> Added support for VMS, contributed by Craig Berry. See |
| vms/README.vms in the distrubution for more information. </li> |
| <li> Added Mac OS (classic) support, with a makefile for MPW, |
| contributed by Thomas Wegner and Daryle Walker. </li> |
| <li> Added Borland C++ Builder 5 / BCC 5.5 support, contributed |
| by Patrick McConnell (SF patch #538032). </li> |
| <li> Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 441449, 563184, |
| 564342, 566334, 566901, 569461, 570263, 575168, 579196. </li> |
| <li> Made skippedEntityHandler conform to SAX2 (see source |
| comment). </li> |
| <li> Re-implemented WFC: Entity Declared from XML 1.0 spec and |
| added a new error "entity declared in parameter entity": |
| see SF bug report 569461 and SF patch 578161. </li> |
| <li> Re-implemented section 5.1 from XML 1.0 spec: |
| see SF bug report 570263 and SF patch 578161. </li> |
| </ul> |
| Expat 1.95.3 is being withdrawn due to <a href= |
| "http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=566334&group_id=10127&atid=110127" |
| >bug #566334</a>. If you are currently using Expat 1.95.3, please |
| update to 1.95.4. |

| <dt><em>3 June 2002</em>, |
| Expat 1.95.3 released. |
| </dt> |
| <dd> |
| <ul> |
| <li> Changed the name of the Windows DLLs from expat.dll to |
| libexpat.dll; this fixes SF bug #432456. This is a problem |
| only known to affect the Perl XML::Parser::Expat extension, |
| but is very important for that extension.</li> |
| <li> Added a project to the MSVC workspace to create a wchar_t |
| version of the library; the DLLs are named libexpatw.dll. |
| (Note the addition of the "w" character in the file name.) |
| </li> |
| <li> Added the XML_ParserReset() API function. This allows a |
| parser to be re-used, reducing the number of memory |
| allocations needed to set up a parser. This can be a |
| substantial benefit when parsing a large number of small |
| documents. </li> |
| <li> Fixed XML_SetReturnNSTriplet() to work for element names. |
| This is now a usable feature. </li> |
| <li> Made the XML_UNICODE builds usable (thanks, Karl!). </li> |
| <li> Allow xmlwf to read from standard input. </li> |
| <li> Install a man page for xmlwf on Unix systems. </li> |
| <li> Fixed many bugs; see SF bug reports 231864, 461380, 464837, |
| 466885, 469226, 477667, 484419, 487840, 494749, 496505, |
| 547350. Other bugs which we can't test as easily may also |
| have been fixed, especially in the area of build support. </li> |
