567f612d 2024-08-19 17:43:32 build: Check for declaration of glob() function Don't rely on presence of glob.h.
5c608609 2024-08-16 22:35:54 Eliminate false positive -Warray-bounds on some compilers This affects GCC 7.3, MinGW 7.3, and LCC 1.25 and 1.26. In some sense it reverts ad93f087.
e1291059 2024-07-22 22:22:48 build: Don't check for pthread.h The Autotools build still checks for pthread.h (and zlib.h and lzma.h) but the result isn't needed in config.h.
cc03c069 2024-07-22 22:15:09 build: Don't check for standard POSIX headers These headers should be available since early POSIX days and are required no matter what.
d7dc2eaf 2024-07-22 21:39:54 build: Don't check for dlfcn.h and dl.h It's enough to check for symbols.
0172ffa9 2024-07-22 15:21:36 build: Only check for required headers
3ef66611 2024-07-22 14:58:16 build: Rework mmap checks Switch to AC_CHECK_DECLS/check_symbol_exists. Don't check for sys/mman.h separately. Don't check for munmap.
e1657f3f 2024-07-22 14:33:14 build: Use AC_CHECK_DECLS/check_symbol_exists for getentropy This assumes that getentropy is declared in sys/random.h. Should fix issues on iOS. See #774.
e2a49afe 2024-07-03 20:18:24 build: Read version number from VERSION file
c3731347 2024-07-03 18:20:17 build: Introduce LIBXML_MINOR_COMPAT This is set to 0 for now but could be used to avoid ABI stability issues.
1167c334 2024-06-28 21:51:21 encoding: Don't include iconv.h from libxml/encoding.h
64685e98 2024-06-28 22:04:50 autotools: Remove NON_PC_LIBS Improves modularization.
c195f06f 2024-06-25 22:14:47 autotools: Use AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE from autoconf archives
1afaa371 2024-06-25 22:06:36 build: Move definition of ATTRIBUTE_DESTRUCTOR to libxml.h
ec47add4 2024-06-24 01:06:08 configure.ac: fix bashisms '==' is a bashism, so use the POSIX '=' instead.
0a279e2f 2024-06-22 04:00:33 tests: Remove old timing tests
84a4f84c 2024-06-22 02:11:24 build: Don't check for required headers and functions Unless we are on Windows, the following POSIX headers are required. They're part of the earliest POSIX specs and it doesn't make sense to check for them. - fcntl.h - unistd.h - sys/stat.h - sys/time.h On Windows, io.h, fcntl.h and sys/stat.h are always available.
dc6f55cf 2024-06-22 00:35:14 build: Remove check for IPv6 Only check for availability of netdb.h.
02326d72 2024-06-21 23:54:35 build: Remove socklen_t checks socklen_t has been mandated by POSIX for ages. Always use "socklen_t" or "int" on Win32.
7ba6c8fe 2024-06-21 04:59:11 autotools: Remove libxml-2.0-uninstalled.pc
c106455c 2024-06-21 04:18:04 build: Set Cflags.private on Windows
fc4bd04b 2024-06-21 03:32:30 autotools: Remove unused variable
4c1b8851 2024-06-21 03:26:54 autotools: Move MODULE_PLATFORM_LIBS into NON_PC_LIBS
29bf09ec 2024-06-21 03:16:44 autotools: Remove XML_LIBTOOLLIBS
02f519e6 2024-06-21 02:07:17 autotools: Use pkg-config to check for libreadline This handles static linking properly and avoids overlinking. Change the --with-readline default to no as it was before and raise an error if libreadline couldn't be found. Do the same for libhistory.
2b0c4abb 2024-06-16 21:52:12 threads: Remove pthread weak symbol hack On Linux, we tried to detect the presence of libpthread to disable things like locks. This questionable hack doesn't work since glibc 2.34 which merged libpthread into libc.
38488027 2024-06-16 21:16:43 xmllint: Support libreadline without history
b0fc67aa 2024-06-15 22:53:55 build: Remove --with-tree configuration option This option would allow for a smaller, but mostly useless minimal build. But it complicates the symbol availability logic in an insane way and requires specialized tools like our custom C parser in doc/apibuild.py. See #717.
7cf7a54a 2024-06-15 22:27:40 build: Only enable linker version script in legacy mode The version script is deprecated but required for backward compatibility.
898e5a14 2024-06-15 20:17:18 build: Remove compiler TLS warning
f070acc5 2024-06-14 23:51:31 autotools: Abort if external libraries couldn't be found This makes the configuration process more robust and deterministic. Before, we would silently disable options.
669bd349 2024-06-12 18:20:01 xpointer: Remove support for XPointer locations The latest spec for what it essentially an XPath extension seems to be this working draft from 2002: https://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xpointer/ The xpointer() scheme is listed as "being reviewed" in the XPointer registry since at least 2006. libxml2 seems to be the only modern software that tries to implement this spec, but the code has many bugs and quality issues. If you configure --with-legacy, old symbols are retained for ABI compatibility.
dba1ed85 2024-06-12 18:19:55 ftp: Remove FTP support Remove the built-in FTP client. If you configure --with-legacy, old symbols are retained for ABI compatibility.
b46decdf 2024-06-12 15:58:36 Bump version
ec09909d 2024-05-29 13:47:37 autotools: Fix pthread detection on FreeBSD pthread_join is defined by libc, so check for pthread_create instead. Should fix #725.
e349709a 2024-05-21 21:07:16 build: Remove --with-fexceptions configuration option
f524993e 2024-05-21 20:56:55 build: Clean up configuration options Remove run-debug from meson. Fix documentation.

54629e0f 2024-05-21 20:25:23 autotools: Remove --with-coverage configuration option
e80f27fc 2024-05-21 18:37:57 build: Don't check for inttypes.h This header isn't used.
dda69626 2024-05-21 18:31:37 autotools: Only check for networking headers if required
3018842c 2024-05-20 23:51:01 build: Disable HTTP support by default
609d2666 2024-05-01 23:46:46 Stop defining _REENTRANT This macro is obsolete, see `man feature_test_macros`.
d381e5de 2024-04-28 21:14:32 doc: Move doc/examples to example
1cdfece1 2024-04-28 18:33:40 memory: Remove memory debugging This is useless compared to sanitizers or valgrind and has a considerable performance impact if enabled accidentally.
f7f14537 2024-04-02 12:56:11 build: Disable support for compression libraries by default libxml2 has limited support for reading and writing compressed data with the help of zlib and liblzma which used to be enabled by default. This only works for files read from the file system and never worked with memory buffers. My guess is that this feature is virtually unused. In light of the recently discovered xz backdoor, it's a good time to disable these features by default to reduce attack surface and prepare for eventual removal. If --with-legacy is passed to the Autotools build, compression will be enabled by default as before.
e97b4d84 2024-02-13 11:37:05 autotools: Remove useless substitution Fixes #689.
24059ae9 2024-01-10 18:02:20 autotools: Readd --with-xptr-locs configuration option The option was removed accidentally in 4e4c89a4.
d7d300ba 2024-01-04 17:50:11 parser: Remove remnants of runtime debugging feature Apparently, this feature was remove long ago. Fixes #651.
2e9e758d 2023-12-24 14:27:46 dict: Get random seed from system PRNG
be558647 2023-12-05 21:25:09 autotools: Fix option description
cf6e58d6 2023-12-05 20:40:20 build: Disable compiler TLS by default The global struct is quite large (~700 bytes on 64-bit systems which will be allocated for each thread whether it uses libxml2 or not) and already close to the total size limit on some platforms. Disable compiler TLS by default.
5cffba83 2023-11-28 15:34:28 Rework va_copy fallback va_copy is a macro, so it can be detected without a feature test. Fallback to __va_copy or memcpy.
7d6969d9 2023-11-23 15:48:52 Remove Trio Trio is a rather old cross-platform printf library which was bundled with libxml2. It was needed for ancient pre-C99 systems without snprintf and should be safe to remove these days.
f3c24112 2023-11-22 02:00:00 autotools: Stop checking for snprintf This works around a bug when cross-compiling to 32-bit MinGW: https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/bugs/935/ This means that we don't fall back to the bundled Trio library if snprintf couldn't be detected. Trio support is completely untested, most likely broken and will be removed soon. Fixes #625.
3669316a 2023-11-16 13:34:03 Bump version
19161bab 2023-09-25 14:00:48 dict: Internal API to look up hash values
de4b270a 2023-09-21 14:31:31 autotools: Make --with-minimum disable lzma support Fix an oversight when handling the --with-minimum option.
e7f0d88b 2023-09-21 01:38:26 build: Remove some GCC warnings -Wnested-externs produces spurious warnings after implicit declaration of functions. -Winline is useless since we don't use inlines. -Wredundant-decls was already removed for autotools.
5a18c505 2023-09-04 09:30:38 autoconf: Include non-pkg-config dependency flags in the pkg-config file These were present before, but I accidentally dropped them in my recent build improvements.
6864d92f 2023-09-04 09:25:44 autoconf: Don't bake build time CFLAGS into pkg-config file Having slept on it, I've realised that baking the dependency CFLAGS into the pkg-config file is pointless when it is only used to link against them. It may even cause problems.
93e8bb2a 2023-09-02 17:12:58 build: Generate better pkg-config files for static-only builds pkg-config supports `Requires.private` and `Libs.private` fields for static linking. However, if you're building a dynamic binary, then pkg-config will use the non-private fields, even if just the static libxml2 is available. This will result in libxml2 being underlinked, causing the build to fail. The solution is to fold the private fields into the non-private fields when the shared libxml2 is not being built. This works for Autotools and CMake. Meson also knows how to handle this when it automatically generates pkg-config files.
4640ccac 2023-09-02 16:18:30 build: Generate better pkg-config file for SYSROOT builds The -I and -L flags you use to build should not necessarily be the same ones you bake into installed files. If you are building with dependencies located under a SYSROOT then the installed files should have no knowledge of that SYSROOT. For example, if the build requires `-L/path/to/sysroot/usr/lib/foo` then only `-L/usr/lib/foo` should be baked into the installed files. pkg-config is SYSROOT-aware, so this issue can be sidestepped by using the `Requires` field rather than the `Libs` and `Cflags` fields. This is easily resolved if you rely solely on pkg-config, but this project falls back to standard Autoconf checks, so a little more effort is required. Unfortunately, this issue cannot feasibly be resolved for CMake. `find_package` is used rather than `pkg_check_modules`, so we cannot tell whether a pkg-config file for each dependency is present or not, even if `find_package` uses pkg-config behind the scenes. The CMake build does not record any dependency -I or -L flags into the pkg-config file anyway. This is a problem in itself, although these dependencies are most likely installed to standard locations. Meson is very much better at handling this, as it generates the pkg-config file automatically using the correct logic.
54a0b19a 2023-09-01 14:52:14 autoconf: Allow custom --with-icu configure option
c5989473 2023-09-01 14:52:11 dict: Use thread-local storage for PRNG state
57cfd221 2023-09-01 14:52:04 dict: Use xoroshiro64** as PRNG Stop using rand_r. This enables hash randomization on all platforms.

cb8ccb10 2023-05-25 03:07:57 testapi: Don't set http_proxy environment variable We already disable network access, so this has no effect.
9fd57df8 2023-05-25 02:37:57 autotools: Improve iconv check Use a custom test program which includes iconv.h, so we can check whether the possibly redefined symbols in this header file match the symbols in the iconv library. Should fix #547.
bdb5667a 2023-05-10 18:13:47 autotools: Fix ICU detection Fixes #540.
34630630 2023-05-05 17:34:57 autoconf: fix iconv library paths and pass cflags when building executables See 0f77167f for prior related work
a8fe4900 2023-04-29 20:17:38 autoconf: Only use --undefined-version with version scripts
d8f6e760 2023-04-29 19:12:23 Link with --undefined-version lld 16 defaults to --no-undefined-version but the version script can contain symbols disabled by configuration options. See #473.
e07f765f 2023-04-28 14:51:06 Bump version to 2.12.0
2df2562e 2023-04-26 21:17:21 autoconf: Add AC_LANG_SOURCE to fix warning

e2bae1bc 2022-09-20 14:34:20 autotools: Don't use version script on Windows A feature test would be better, but blacklisting Windows platforms seems good enough for now.
f597eff8 2022-09-07 18:18:06 autotools: Fix winsock detection Hardcode the required library on MinGW because winsock uses non-standard calling conventions on 32-bit Windows which makes AC_SEARCH_LIBS fail. Should fix #406.
16d3e8b2 2022-09-07 18:10:03 autotools: Only add network libraries if HTTP/FTP enabled

adcf399b 2022-09-05 15:36:13 autotools: Try to fix bug with multiline arguments Only happens with older autoconf?
30c8d9bb 2022-09-05 02:02:54 http: Simplify IPv6 checks This should also enable IPv6 support on Windows. Untested and mostly useless anyway, since we don't support HTTPS.
