| <li>2.1.0 also ease the upgrade from libxml v1 to the recent version. |
| italso contains numerous fixes and enhancements: |
| <ul><li>added xmlStopParser() to stop parsing</li> |
| <li>improved a lot parsing speed when there is large CDATA blocs</li> |

| </ul><h3>2.0.0: Apr 12 2000</h3><ul><li>First public release of libxml2. If you are using libxml, it's a |
| goodidea to check the 1.x to 2.x upgrade instructions. NOTE: while |
| initiallyscheduled for Apr 3 the release occurred only on Apr 12 due to |
| massiveworkload.</li> |
| <li>The include are now located under $prefix/include/libxml (instead |
| of$prefix/include/gnome-xml), they also are referenced by |
| <pre>#include <libxml/xxx.h></pre> |
| <p>instead of</p> |
| <pre>#include "xxx.h"</pre> |
| </li> |
| <li>a new URI module for parsing URIs and following strictly RFC 2396</li> |

| overloadeddynamically by using xmlMemSetup()</li> |
| <li>The previously CVS only tool tester has been |
| renamed<strong>xmllint</strong>and is now installed as part of the |
| libxml2package</li> |
| <li>The I/O interface has been revamped. There is now ways to plug |
| inspecific I/O modules, either at the URI scheme detection level |
| usingxmlRegisterInputCallbacks() or by passing I/O functions when |
| creating aparser context using xmlCreateIOParserCtxt()</li> |
| <li>there is a C preprocessor macro LIBXML_VERSION providing the |
| versionnumber of the libxml module in use</li> |
| <li>a number of optional features of libxml can now be excluded atconfigure |
| time (FTP/HTTP/HTML/XPath/Debug)</li> |
| </ul><h3>2.0.0beta: Mar 14 2000</h3><ul><li>This is a first Beta release of libxml version 2</li> |
| <li>It's available only from<a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">xmlsoft.orgFTP</a>, it's packaged as |
| libxml2-2.0.0beta and available as tar andRPMs</li> |
| <li>This version is now the head in the Gnome CVS base, the old one |
| isavailable under the tag LIB_XML_1_X</li> |
| <li>This includes a very large set of changes. From a programmatic pointof |
| view applications should not have to be modified too much, check the<a href="upgrade.html">upgrade page</a></li> |
| <li>Some interfaces may changes (especially a bit about encoding).</li> |
| <li>the updates includes: |
| <ul><li>fix I18N support. ISO-Latin-x/UTF-8/UTF-16 (nearly) seems |
| correctlyhandled now</li> |
| <li>Better handling of entities, especially well-formedness checkingand |
| proper PEref extensions in external subsets</li> |
| <li>DTD conditional sections</li> |
| <li>Validation now correctly handle entities content</li> |
| <li><a href="http://rpmfind.net/tools/gdome/messages/0039.html">changestructures |
| to accommodate DOM</a></li> |
| </ul></li> |
| <li>Serious progress were made toward compliance, <a href="conf/result.html">here are the result of the test</a>against |
| theOASIS testsuite (except the Japanese tests since I don't support |

| CVShead version.</li> |
| </ul><h3>1.8.7: Mar 6 2000</h3><ul><li>This is a bug fix release:</li> |
| <li>It is possible to disable the ignorable blanks heuristic used |
| bylibxml-1.x, a new function xmlKeepBlanksDefault(0) will allow this. |
| Notethat for adherence to XML spec, this behaviour will be disabled |
| bydefault in 2.x . The same function will allow to keep compatibility |
| forold code.</li> |
| <li>Blanks in <a> </a> constructs are not ignored |
| anymore,avoiding heuristic is really the Right Way :-\</li> |
| <li>The unchecked use of snprintf which was breaking |
| libxml-1.8.6compilation on some platforms has been fixed</li> |
| <li>nanoftp.c nanohttp.c: Fixed '#' and '?' stripping when |
