TinyCBOR release 0.6

TinyCBOR 0.6 contains many changes developed over the past four years,
which have been included in Qt releases.

Notable new API:
- Support for encoding and decoding half-precision floating points
  (cbor_encode_float_as_half_float and cbor_value_get_half_float_as_float)
  which convert to and from a single-precision float to the correct 16-bit
  representation.
- Ability to restart parsing (cbor_value_reparse)

And some experimental API:
- Parsing and encoding using delegated functions, not just a buffer
  (cbor_encoder_init_writer and cbor_parser_init_reader)
- Parser support for iterating over string chunks

TinyCBOR release 0.5.0

TinyCBOR 0.5 contains numerous fixes and new API compared to 0.4. The
main feature in this release is the CBOR Validation API, which can be
used to perform a deeper validation of the contents than the simple
syntax correctness that the main parser API provides. In particular, the
API can be used to confirm that a given CBOR data type was encoded using
either the Canonical Format (RFC 7049 section 3.9) and the Strict Mode
(section 3.10). The API can also be used to confirm CBOR Text Strings
carry properly-encoded UTF-8 text, a verification that the main parser
does not perform.

Starting in this release, the TINYCBOR_VERSION macro will be defined to
the current version number.

This release also has the possibility of building TinyCBOR as a shared
library on Unix systems. It is automatically enabled on systems detected
to use the ELF executable format. To disable it, pass BUILD_SHARED=0 to
make; to enable it on other systems, pass BUILD_SHARED=1. To disable the
static library, pass BUILD_STATIC=0 to make. Note that TinyCBOR does not
guarantee binary compatibility across releases.

Other relevant changes include:

 - The list of known tags includes the tags used for CBOR Object Signing
   and Encryption (COSE - RFC 8152).
 - The functions taking FILE* are now conditional on a hosted C
   environment. They are not declared for freestanding C environments.

Note: the zero-copy string functions announced with the 0.5-beta1
release have been removed for further development. A new zery-copy
string access API will be provided in the 0.6 release.

TinyCBOR release 0.5 (beta1)

This is a beta release of TinyCBOR 0.5. Beta releases may have bugs and
the API is still subject to change.

TinyCBOR 0.5 contains numerous fixes and new API compared to 0.4. The
main feature in this release is the CBOR Validation API, which can be
used to perform a deeper validation of the contents than the simple
syntax correctness that the main parser API provides. In particular, the
API can be used to confirm that a given CBOR data type was encoded using

the current version number.

Other relevant changes include:

 - The list of known tags includes the tags used for CBOR Object Signing
   and Encryption (COSE - RFC 8152).
 - A new pair of functions cbor_value_get_{text,byte}_string_chunk can
   be used to obtain a direct pointer to the string data, without any
   memory allocation or memcpy (zero copy).
 - the functions taking FILE* are now conditional on a hosted C
   environment. They are not declared for freestanding C environments.

TinyCBOR release 0.4.2

This is a bugfix release. Important bugs fixed in this release:
 - Fixed builds against a static cJSON
 - Fixed MSVC builds
 - Fixed builds on freestanding C implementation (no FILE* API)
 - Fixed the return value of cbor_encoder_close_container when a previous OOM
   condition had been detected
 - Fixed the build in strict C89 mode (no C99 extensions)

TinyCBOR release 0.4.1

This is a bug-fix release. There is no new functionality on top of
v0.4.

Bugs fixed:
 - #54 Failure to build with newest cJSON upstream
 - Stack corruption when memcpy doesn't use the same calling convention
 - Warnings with GCC -pedantic in cbor.h
 - a number of buildsystem bugs

TinyCBOR release 0.4

This is a feature release of TinyCBOR. New API in this release:
 - cbor_encoder_get_buffer_size
 - cbor_encoder_get_extra_bytes_needed
 - cbor_value_is_half_float
 - cbor_value_is_float
 - cbor_value_is_double

This release contains numerous bugfixes and simple fixes for warnings
generated with some compilers, under certain conditions. The public API
headers should now produce no warnings with Microsoft's compiler, even at
level 4 warnings.

Important: the anonymous union member of struct CborEncoder is no longer
anonymous, to fix compatibility with C89 compilers. Code that accessed the
members in that structure directly should instead use the API added for that
purpose (cbor_encoder_get_buffer_size and cbor_encoder_get_extra_bytes_needed).

TinyCBOR release v0.3.2

This is a bug-fix release. There is no new functionality on top of
v0.3 or v0.3.1. This release fixes a build incompatibility with old GNU
Make (< 0.4) and finally fixes stdint.h macros with Arduino.

Bugs fixed:
 - #36: libtinycbor.a created as a directory on some buildsystem

-- 
Changes:
Fabrice Fontaine (1):
      Give a name to unnamed union in CborEncoder

Thiago Macieira (1):
      Fix "make distcheck" when TMPDIR isn't set

TinyCBOR release v0.3.1

This is a bug-fix release. There is no new functionality on top of
v0.3. This release is meant to fix the build when using a Bourne shell
that isn't Bash.

Bugs fixed:
 - #32: Build fails due to fd > 9 in shell redirection
 - #34: Use of non-POSIX "echo -e" shell

--
Changes:
Fabrice Fontaine (1):
      Fix compilation error due to file descriptor

Thiago Macieira (1):
      Use printf instead of echo -e in Makefile.configure

Retroactively releasing TinyCBOR 0.2.1

This is an intermediate release of TinyCBOR v0.2 without the buildsystem
updates that entered 0.3.

TinyCBOR release 0.3

The major feature in version 0.3 is the completion of the TinyCBOR
documentation. To generate it, run
    make docs
The documentation is available online at
    https://01org.github.io/tinycbor/0.3

This release contains compile fixes for builds on Windows with Microsoft
Visual Studio's compiler. It also moved the code calling malloc() to
outside cborparser.c, so that file can be compiled on C Freestanding
environments that do not have malloc() and free().

This release also completes the API that was declared in cbor.h but never
implemented. New APIs in this release are:
 - cbor_encoder_get_buffer_size
 - cbor_encoder_get_extra_bytes_needed
 - cbor_value_calculate_string_length
 - cbor_value_get_int64_checked
 - cbor_value_get_int_checked

Changes:
David Antler (1):
      Add reference to header file for Windows.

Mike Colagrosso (1):
      parser: Set the length to 0 on error in extract_length()

Otavio Pontes (3):
      Fix compilation for systems without math.h header
      Remove from cborparser.c file the dependency on stdlib header
      Fix _BSD_SOURCE is deprecated warning

Thiago Macieira (17):

      Convert C++/C99 style comments to C89
      Update qmake build files
      Finish TinyCBOR documentation
      Add cbor_encoder_get_buffer_size and get_extra_bytes_needed
      Parsing: Add cbor_value_get_next_byte()
      CborValue: add missing convenience FP cbor_value_is_xxxx functions
      CborValue: fix mis-named cbor_value_is_{null,undefined}
      Parsing: implement the missing cbor_value_get_int{,64}_checked functions

TinyCBOR release 0.2

The major feature in this release is the CBOR-to-JSON and JSON-to-CBOR
conversion tools. Conversion from CBOR to JSON is done by passing the -j
option to the existing cbordump tool, while the reverse conversion is
done by the new json2cbor tool. Both tools accept the -M switch to
annotate the JSON output and parse it so the orignal CBOR types are
restored. This is specially useful for tagged objects and CBOR Byte
Strings.

A minor feature was the implementation of IEEE 754 half-float
support. Another is the ability to check whether the number of items
added to arrays and maps when encoding to CBOR was the expected value.

And TinyCBOR got a buildsystem. So now you can simply type make && make
install.

New APIs in this release:
 - cbor_encode_negative_int
 - cbor_encode_text_stringz
 - cbor_encoder_close_container_checked
 - cbor_value_get_raw_integer
 - cbor_value_to_json_advance
 - cbor_value_to_json
