Initial patch by Sylvain Viollon. - - * LP#1281139: ``.attrib`` value of Comments lost its mutation methods - in 3.3.0. Even though it is empty and immutable, it should still - provide the same interface as that returned for Elements. * Fri Feb 28 2014 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.3.2-1 - 3.3.1 (2014-02-12) - ================== - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1014290: HTML documents parsed with ``parser.feed()`` failed to find - elements during tag iteration. - - * LP#1273709: Building in PyPy failed due to missing support for - ``PyUnicode_Compare()`` and ``PyByteArray_*()`` in PyPy's C-API. - - * LP#1274413: Compilation in MSVC failed due to missing "stdint.h" standard - header file. - - * LP#1274118: iterparse() failed to parse BOM prefixed files. * Mon Jan 27 2014 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.3.0-2 - Update Cython requirement to >= 0.20 * Mon Jan 27 2014 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.3.0-1 - 3.3.0 (2014-01-26) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * The heuristic that distinguishes file paths from URLs was tightened - to produce less false negatives. - - Other changes - ------------- - - - 3.3.0beta5 (2014-01-18) - ======================= - - Features added - -------------- - - * The PEP 393 unicode parsing support gained a fallback for wchar strings - which might still be somewhat common on Windows systems. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * Several error handling problems were fixed throughout the code base that - could previously lead to exceptions being silently swallowed or not - properly reported. - - * The C-API function ``appendChild()`` is now deprecated as it does not - propagate exceptions (its return type is ``void``). The new function - ``appendChildToElement()`` was added as a safe replacement. - - * Passing a string into ``fromstringlist()`` raises an exception instead of - parsing the string character by character. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * Document cleanup code was simplified using the new GC features in - Cython 0.20. - - - 3.3.0beta4 (2014-01-12) - ======================= - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * The (empty) value returned by the ``attrib`` property of Entity and - Comment objects was mutable. - - * Element class lookup wasn't available for the new pull parsers or when - using a custom parser target. - - * Setting Element attributes on instantiation with both the ``attrib`` - argument and keyword arguments could modify the mapping passed as - ``attrib``. - - * LP#1266171: DTDs instantiated from internal/external subsets (i.e. - through the docinfo property) lost their attribute declarations. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * Built with Cython 0.20pre (gitrev 012ae82eb) to prepare support for - Python 3.4. - - - 3.3.0beta3 (2014-01-02) - ======================= - - Features added - -------------- - - * Unicode string parsing was optimised for Python 3.3 (PEP 393). - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * HTML parsing of Unicode strings could misdecode the input on some - platforms. - - * Crash in xmlfile() when closing open elements out of order in an error - case. - - Other changes - ------------- - - - 3.3.0beta2 (2013-12-20) - ======================= - - Features added - -------------- - - * ``iterparse()`` supports the ``recover`` option. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * Crash in ``iterparse()`` for HTML parsing. - - * Crash in target parsing with attributes. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * The safety check in the read-only tree implementation (e.g. used by - ``PythonElementClassLookup``) raises a more appropriate - ``ReferenceError`` for illegal access after tree disposal instead of - an ``AssertionError``. This should only impact test code that - specifically checks the original behaviour. - - - 3.3.0beta1 (2013-12-12) - ======================= - - Features added - -------------- - - * New option ``handle_failures`` in ``make_links_absolute()`` and - ``resolve_base_href()`` (lxml.html) that enables ignoring or - discarding links that fail to parse as URLs. - - * New parser classes ``XMLPullParser`` and ``HTMLPullParser`` for - incremental parsing, as implemented for ElementTree in Python 3.4. - - * ``iterparse()`` enables recovery mode by default for HTML parsing - (``html=True``). - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1255132: crash when trying to run validation over non-Element (e.g. - comment or PI). - - * Error messages in the log and in exception messages that originated - from libxml2 could accidentally be picked up from preceding warnings - instead of the actual error. - - * The ``ElementMaker`` in lxml.objectify did not accept a dict as - argument for adding attributes to the element it's building. This - works as in lxml.builder now. - - * LP#1228881: ``repr(XSLTAccessControl)`` failed in Python 3. - - * Raise ``ValueError`` when trying to append an Element to itself or - to one of its own descendants, instead of running into an infinite - loop. - - * LP#1206077: htmldiff discarded whitespace from the output. - - * Compressed plain-text serialisation to file-like objects was broken. - - * lxml.html.formfill: Fix textarea form filling. - The textarea used to be cleared before the new content was set, - which removed the name attribute. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * Some basic API classes use freelists internally for faster - instantiation. This can speed up some ``iterparse()`` scenarios, - for example. - - * ``iterparse()`` was rewritten to use the new ``*PullParser`` - classes internally instead of being a parser itself. * Mon Nov 11 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.2.4-1 - 3.2.4 (2013-11-07) - ================== - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * Memory leak when creating an XPath evaluator in a thread. - - * LP#1228881: ``repr(XSLTAccessControl)`` failed in Python 3. - - * Raise ``ValueError`` when trying to append an Element to itself or - to one of its own descendants. - - * LP#1206077: htmldiff discarded whitespace from the output. - - * Compressed plain-text serialisation to file-like objects was broken. * Wed Sep 18 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.2.3-2 - Add requirement for on python-cssselect for the python2 version * Sun Jul 28 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.2.3-1 - and here's a version 3.2.3. The last release accidentally lost the ability - to work on Python 2.4. There are no other changes over 3.2.2. - - 3.2.2 (2013-07-28) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1185701: spurious XMLSyntaxError after finishing iterparse(). - - * Crash in lxml.objectify during xsi annotation. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * Return values of user provided element class lookup methods are now - validated against the type of the XML node they represent to prevent - API class mismatches. * Sun May 12 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.2.1-1 - 3.2.1 (2013-05-11) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * The methods ``apply_templates()`` and ``process_children()`` of XSLT - extension elements have gained two new boolean options ``elements_only`` - and ``remove_blank_text`` that discard either all strings or - whitespace-only strings from the result list. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * When moving Elements to another tree, the namespace cleanup mechanism - no longer drops namespace prefixes from attributes for which it finds - a default namespace declaration, to prevent them from appearing as - unnamespaced attributes after serialisation. - - * Returning non-type objects from a custom class lookup method could lead - to a crash. - - * Instantiating and using subtypes of Comments and ProcessingInstructions - crashed. * Fri May 10 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.2.0-1 - 3.2.0 (2013-04-28) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#690319: Leading whitespace could change the behaviour of the string - parsing functions in ``lxml.html``. - - * LP#599318: The string parsing functions in ``lxml.html`` are more robust - in the face of uncommon HTML content like framesets or missing body tags. - Patch by Stefan Seelmann. - - * LP#712941: I/O errors while trying to access files with paths that - contain non-ASCII characters could raise ``UnicodeDecodeError`` instead - of properly reporting the ``IOError``. - - * LP#673205: Parsing from in-memory strings disabled network access in the - default parser and made subsequent attempts to parse from a URL fail. - - * LP#971754: lxml.html.clean appends 'nofollow' to 'rel' attributes instead - of overwriting the current value. - - * LP#715687: lxml.html.clean no longer discards scripts that are explicitly - allowed by the user provided whitelist. Patch by Christine Koppelt. - - 3.1.2 (2013-04-12) - ================== - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1136509: Passing attributes through the namespace-unaware API of - the sax bridge (i.e. the ``handler.startElement()`` method) failed - with a ``TypeError``. Patch by Mike Bayer. - - * LP#1123074: Fix serialisation error in XSLT output when converting - the result tree to a Unicode string. - - * GH#105: Replace illegal usage of ``xmlBufLength()`` in libxml2 2.9.0 - by properly exported API function ``xmlBufUse()``. - - 3.1.1 (2013-03-29) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1160386: Write access to ``lxml.html.FormElement.fields`` raised - an AttributeError in Py3. - - * Illegal memory access during cleanup in incremental xmlfile writer. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * The externally useless class ``lxml.etree._BaseParser`` was removed - from the module dict. * Fri Mar 8 2013 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.1.0-1 - 3.1.0 (2013-02-10) - ================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * GH#89: lxml.html.clean allows overriding the set of attributes that it - considers 'safe'. Patch by Francis Devereux. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * LP#1104370: ``copy.copy(el.attrib)`` raised an exception. It now returns - a copy of the attributes as a plain Python dict. - - * GH#95: When used with namespace prefixes, the ``el.find*()`` methods - always used the first namespace mapping that was provided for each - path expression instead of using the one that was actually passed - in for the current run. - - * LP#1092521, GH#91: Fix undefined C symbol in Python runtimes compiled - without threading support. Patch by Ulrich Seidl. - - Other changes - ------------- - - - 3.1beta1 (2012-12-21) - ===================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * New build-time option ``--with-unicode-strings`` for Python 2 that - makes the API always return Unicode strings for names and text - instead of byte strings for plain ASCII content. - - * New incremental XML file writing API ``etree.xmlfile()``. - - * E factory in lxml.objectify is callable to simplify the creation of - tags with non-identifier names without having to resort to getattr(). - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * When starting from a non-namespaced element in lxml.objectify, searching - for a child without explicitly specifying a namespace incorrectly found - namespaced elements with the requested local name, instead of restricting - the search to non-namespaced children. - - * GH#85: Deprecation warnings were fixed for Python 3.x. - - * GH#33: lxml.html.fromstring() failed to accept bytes input in Py3. - - * LP#1080792: Static build of libxml2 2.9.0 failed due to missing file. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * The externally useless class ``_ObjectifyElementMakerCaller`` was - removed from the module API of lxml.objectify. - - * LP#1075622: lxml.builder is faster for adding text to elements with - many children. Patch by Anders Hammarquist. * Thu Feb 14 2013 Fedora Release Engineering - 3.0.1-2 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_19_Mass_Rebuild * Mon Oct 15 2012 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.0.1-1 - 3.0.1 (2012-10-14) - Bugs fixed - - * LP#1065924: Element proxies could disappear during garbage collection - in PyPy without proper cleanup. - * GH#71: Failure to work with libxml2 2.6.x. - * LP#1065139: static MacOS-X build failed in Py3. * Wed Oct 10 2012 Jeffrey Ollie - 3.0-1 - 3.0 (2012-10-08) - ================ - - Features added - -------------- - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * End-of-file handling was incorrect in iterparse() when reading from - a low-level C file stream and failed in libxml2 2.9.0 due to its - improved consistency checks. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * The build no longer uses Cython by default unless the generated C files - are missing. To use Cython, pass the option "--with-cython". To ignore - the fatal build error when Cython is required but not available (e.g. to - run special setup.py commands that do not actually run a build), pass - "--without-cython". - - - 3.0beta1 (2012-09-26) - ===================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * Python level access to (optional) libxml2 memory debugging features - to simplify debugging of memory leaks etc. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * Fix a memory leak in XPath by switching to Cython 0.17.1. - - * Some tests were adapted to work with PyPy. - - Other changes - ------------- - - * The code was adapted to work with the upcoming libxml2 2.9.0 release. - - - 3.0alpha2 (2012-08-23) - ====================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * The .iter() method of elements now accepts tag arguments like "{*}name" - to search for elements with a given local name in any namespace. With - this addition, all combinations of wildcards now work as expected: - "{ns}name", "{}name", "{*}name", "{ns}*", "{}*" and "{*}*". Note that - "name" is equivalent to "{}name", but "*" is "{*}*". The same change - applies to the .getiterator(), .itersiblings(), .iterancestors(), - .iterdescendants(), .iterchildren() and .itertext() methods, the - strip_attributes(), strip_elements() and strip_tags() functions as well - as the iterparse() function. - - * C14N allows specifying the inclusive prefixes to be promoted to - top-level during exclusive serialisation. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * Passing long Unicode strings into the feed() parser interface failed to - read the entire string. - - Other changes - ------------- - - - 3.0alpha1 (2012-07-31) - ====================== - - Features added - -------------- - - * Initial support for building in PyPy (through cpyext). - - * DTD objects gained an API that allows read access to their - declarations. - - * xpathgrep.py gained support for parsing line-by-line (e.g. - from grep output) and for surrounding the output with a new root - tag. - - * E-factory in lxml.builder accepts subtypes of known data - types (such as string subtypes) when building elements around them. - - * Tree iteration and iterparse() with a selective tag - argument supports passing a set of tags. Tree nodes will be - returned by the iterators if they match any of the tags. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * The .find*() methods in lxml.objectify no longer use XPath - internally, which makes them faster in many cases (especially when - short circuiting after a single or couple of elements) and fixes - some behavioural differences compared to lxml.etree. Note that - this means that they no longer support arbitrary XPath expressions - but only the subset that the ElementPath language supports. - The previous implementation was also redundant with the normal - XPath support, which can be used as a replacement. - - * el.find('*') could accidentally return a comment or processing - instruction that happened to be in the wrong spot. (Same for the - other .find*() methods.) - - * The error logging is less intrusive and avoids a global setup where - possible. - - * Fixed undefined names in html5lib parser. - - * xpathgrep.py did not work in Python 3. - - * Element.attrib.update() did not accept an attrib of - another Element as parameter. - - * For subtypes of ElementBase that make the .text or .tail - properties immutable (as in objectify, for example), inserting text - when creating Elements through the E-Factory feature of the class - constructor would fail with an exception, stating that the text - cannot be modified. - - Other changes - -------------- - - * The code base was overhauled to properly use 'const' where the API - of libxml2 and libxslt requests it. This also has an impact on the - public C-API of lxml itself, as defined in etreepublic.pxd, as - well as the provided declarations in the lxml/includes/ directory. - Code that uses these declarations may have to be adapted. On the - plus side, this fixes several C compiler warnings, also for user - code, thus making it easier to spot real problems again. - - * The functionality of "lxml.cssselect" was moved into a separate PyPI - package called "cssselect". To continue using it, you must install - that package separately. The "lxml.cssselect" module is still - available and provides the same interface, provided the "cssselect" - package can be imported at runtime. - - * Element attributes passed in as an attrib dict or as keyword - arguments are now sorted by (namespaced) name before being created - to make their order predictable for serialisation and iteration. - Note that adding or deleting attributes afterwards does not take - that order into account, i.e. setting a new attribute appends it - after the existing ones. - - * Several classes that are for internal use only were removed - from the lxml.etree module dict: - _InputDocument, _ResolverRegistry, _ResolverContext, _BaseContext, - _ExsltRegExp, _IterparseContext, _TempStore, _ExceptionContext, - __ContentOnlyElement, _AttribIterator, _NamespaceRegistry, - _ClassNamespaceRegistry, _FunctionNamespaceRegistry, - _XPathFunctionNamespaceRegistry, _ParserDictionaryContext, - _FileReaderContext, _ParserContext, _PythonSaxParserTarget, - _TargetParserContext, _ReadOnlyProxy, _ReadOnlyPIProxy, - _ReadOnlyEntityProxy, _ReadOnlyElementProxy, _OpaqueNodeWrapper, - _OpaqueDocumentWrapper, _ModifyContentOnlyProxy, - _ModifyContentOnlyPIProxy, _ModifyContentOnlyEntityProxy, - _AppendOnlyElementProxy, _SaxParserContext, _FilelikeWriter, - _ParserSchemaValidationContext, _XPathContext, - _XSLTResolverContext, _XSLTContext, _XSLTQuotedStringParam - - * Several internal classes can no longer be inherited from: - _InputDocument, _ResolverRegistry, _ExsltRegExp, _ElementUnicodeResult, - _IterparseContext, _TempStore, _AttribIterator, _ClassNamespaceRegistry, - _XPathFunctionNamespaceRegistry, _ParserDictionaryContext, - _FileReaderContext, _PythonSaxParserTarget, _TargetParserContext, - _ReadOnlyPIProxy, _ReadOnlyEntityProxy, _OpaqueDocumentWrapper, - _ModifyContentOnlyPIProxy, _ModifyContentOnlyEntityProxy, - _AppendOnlyElementProxy, _FilelikeWriter, _ParserSchemaValidationContext, - _XPathContext, _XSLTResolverContext, _XSLTContext, - _XSLTQuotedStringParam, _XSLTResultTree, _XSLTProcessingInstruction * Thu Sep 27 2012 Jeffrey Ollie - 2.3.5-1 - Bugs fixed - - * Crash when merging text nodes in element.remove(). - * Crash in sax/target parser when reporting empty doctype. * Thu Sep 27 2012 Jeffrey Ollie - 2.3.4-1 - Bugs fixed - - * Crash when building an nsmap (Element property) with empty namespace - URIs. - * Crash due to race condition when errors (or user messages) occur during - threaded XSLT processing (or compilation). - * XSLT stylesheet compilation could ignore compilation errors. * Sat Aug 04 2012 David Malcolm - 2.3.3-4 - rebuild for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Python_3.3 * Fri Aug 3 2012 David Malcolm - 2.3.3-3 - remove rhel logic from with_python3 conditional * Sat Jul 21 2012 Fedora Release Engineering - 2.3.3-2 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Mass_Rebuild * Thu Jan 5 2012 Jeffrey C. Ollie - 2.3.3-1 - 2.3.3 (2012-01-04) - Features added - - * lxml.html.tostring() gained new serialisation options with_tail and - doctype. - - Bugs fixed - - * Fixed a crash when using iterparse() for HTML parsing and requesting - start events. - * Fixed parsing of more selectors in cssselect. Whitespace before pseudo- - elements and pseudo-classes is significant as it is a descendant - combinator. "E :pseudo" should parse the same as "E *:pseudo", not - "E:pseudo". Patch by Simon Sapin. - * lxml.html.diff no longer raises an exception when hitting 'img' tags - without 'src' attribute. * Mon Nov 14 2011 Jeffrey C. Ollie - 2.3.2-1 - 2.3.2 (2011-11-11) - Features added - - * lxml.objectify.deannotate() has a new boolean option - cleanup_namespaces to remove the objectify namespace declarations - (and generally clean up the namespace declarations) after removing - the type annotations. - * lxml.objectify gained its own SubElement() function as a copy of - etree.SubElement to avoid an otherwise redundant import of - lxml.etree on the user side. - - Bugs fixed - - * Fixed the "descendant" bug in cssselect a second time (after a first - fix in lxml 2.3.1). The previous change resulted in a serious - performance regression for the XPath based evaluation of the - translated expression. Note that this breaks the usage of some - of the generated XPath expressions as XSLT location paths that - previously worked in 2.3.1. - * Fixed parsing of some selectors in cssselect. Whitespace after - combinators ">", "+" and "~" is now correctly ignored. Previously - it was parsed as a descendant combinator. For example, "div> .foo" - was parsed the same as "div>* .foo" instead of "div>.foo". Patch by - Simon Sapin. * Sun Sep 25 2011 Jeffrey C. Ollie - 2.3.1-1 - Features added - -------------- - - * New option kill_tags in lxml.html.clean to remove specific - tags and their content (i.e. their whole subtree). - - * pi.get() and pi.attrib on processing instructions to parse - pseudo-attributes from the text content of processing instructions. - - * lxml.get_include() returns a list of include paths that can be - used to compile external C code against lxml.etree. This is - specifically required for statically linked lxml builds when code - needs to compile against the exact same header file versions as lxml - itself. - - * Resolver.resolve_file() takes an additional option - close_file that configures if the file(-like) object will be - closed after reading or not. By default, the file will be closed, - as the user is not expected to keep a reference to it. - - Bugs fixed - ---------- - - * HTML cleaning didn't remove 'data:' links. - - * The html5lib parser integration now uses the 'official' - implementation in html5lib itself, which makes it work with newer - releases of the library. - - * In lxml.sax, endElementNS() could incorrectly reject a plain - tag name when the corresponding start event inferred the same plain - tag name to be in the default namespace. - - * When an open file-like object is passed into parse() or - iterparse(), the parser will no longer close it after use. This - reverts a change in lxml 2.3 where all files would be closed. It is - the users responsibility to properly close the file(-like) object, - also in error cases. - - * Assertion error in lxml.html.cleaner when discarding top-level elements. - - * In lxml.cssselect, use the xpath 'A//B' (short for - 'A/descendant-or-self::node()/B') instead of 'A/descendant::B' for the - css descendant selector ('A B'). This makes a few edge cases to be - consistent with the selector behavior in WebKit and Firefox, and makes - more css expressions valid location paths (for use in xsl:template - match). - - * In lxml.html, non-selected
