Changes for version 2.19 - 1999-01-03

  • When the recognized string is long enough, expat uses multiple calls to reportDefault. Fixed recString handler in Expat.xs to deal with this properly.
  • Added original_string method to Expat. This returns the untranslated string (i.e. original encoding) that caused current event.
  • Alberto Accomazzi <alberto@cfa0.harvard.edu> sent in more patches for perl5.005_54 incompatibilities.
  • Alberto also fingered a nasty memory bug in Expat.xs that arose sometimes when you registered a declaration handler but no default handler. It would give you a "Not a CODE reference" error in a place that wasn't using any CODE references.
  • <schinder@pobox.com> reported a problem with compiling expat on a Sun 4 due to non-exsitance of memmove on that OS. Provided a workaround in Makefile.PL
  • Now using expat Version 19981231 from James Clark's test directory.
  • Made patch to this version in order to support original_string (see Expat/expat.patches.)
  • Added CdataStart and CdataEnd handlers to expat.
