Port most changes made to the xmlBuf code in f3807d76, except that
"size" still includes the terminating NULL byte.
Make xmlSetBufferAllocationScheme, xmlBufferAllocScheme and
xmlDefaultBufferSize no-ops.
Deprecate a few functions.
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.
There are dozens of downstream projects that only include tree.h but use
declarations from parser.h. This broke after the recent cleanup of
circular dependencies.
Make tree.h include parser.h again. This is a hack but doesn't change
the include directory struture.
This commit only made it into the 2.12 branch but wasn't applied to
master, so the issue turned up in 2.13.0 again.
Should fix#734.
Fix many places where malloc failures aren't reported.
Make some API function return an error code. Changing the return type
from void to int is technically an ABI break but should be safe on most
platforms.
- xmlNodeSetContent
- xmlNodeSetContentLen
- xmlNodeAddContent
- xmlNodeAddContentLen
- xmlNodeSetBase
Introduce new API functions that return a separate error code if a
memory allocation fails.
- xmlNodeGetAttrValue
- xmlNodeGetBaseSafe
- xmlGetNsListSafe
Introduce private functions xmlTreeEnsureXMLDecl and xmlSplitQName4.
Don't report low-level errors to the global error handler.
Fix tree
Introduce xmlGetNsListSafe
Fix tree
Introduce a new API function xmlAddIDSafe that returns a separate error
code if a memory allocation fails.
Store a pointer to the ID struct in xmlAttr so attributes can be
freed without allocating memory. It's impossible to report malloc
failures in deallocation code.
Introduce XML_INPUT_HAS_ENCODING flag for xmlParserInput which is set
when xmlSwitchEncoding is called. The parser can use the flag to
reliably detect whether an encoding was already set via user override,
BOM or other auto-detection. In this case, the encoding declaration
won't be used to switch the encoding.
Before, an inscrutable mix of ctxt->charset, ctxt->input->encoding
and ctxt->input->buf->encoder was used.
Introduce private helper functions to switch encodings used by both the
XML and HTML parser:
- xmlDetectEncoding which skips over the BOM, allowing to remove the
BOM checks from other encoding functions.
- xmlSetDeclaredEncoding, replacing htmlCheckEncodingDirect, which warns
about encoding mismatches.
If users override the encoding, store the declared instead of the actual
encoding in xmlDoc. In this case, the actual encoding is known and the
raw value from the doc is more useful.
Also use the input flags to store the ISO-8859-1 fallback state.
Restrict the fallback to cases where no encoding was specified. (The
fallback is only useful in recovery mode and these days broken UTF-8 is
probably more likely than ISO-8859-1, so it might eventually be removed
completely.)
The 'charset' member of xmlParserCtxt is now unused. The 'encoding'
member of xmlParserInput is now unused.
The 'standalone' member of xmlParserInput is renamed to 'flags'.
A new parser state XML_PARSER_XML_DECL is added for the push parser.
This code has been broken and deprecated since version 2.6.0, released
in 2003. Because of a bug in commit 961b535c, DOCBparser.c was never
compiled since 2012. I couldn't find a Debian package using any of its
symbols, so it seems safe to remove this module.
One of the operation on the reader could resolve entities
leading to the classic expansion issue. Make sure the
buffer used for xmlreader operation is bounded.
Introduce a new allocation type for the buffers for this effect.

It seems there are functions that do use the const qualifier for some of the
arguments, but it seems that there are a lot of functions that don't use it and
probably should.
So I created a patch against 2.9.0 that makes as much as possible const in
tree.h, and changed other files as needed.
There were a lot of cases like "const xmlNodePtr node". This doesn't actually
do anything, there the *pointer* is constant not the object it points to. So I
changed those to "const xmlNode *node".
I also removed some consts, mostly in the Copy functions, because those
functions can actually modify the doc or node they copy from
Building 2.9.0 on MSVC7.1 was failing
This is because HAVE_CONFIG_H is not #defined
The patch addresses the above, adds testrecurse.exe and the
standard "make check" suite of tests to the MSVC makefile, and also
fixes the following (MSVC7.1) warnings:
buf.c(674) : warning C4028: formal parameter 1 different from
declaration
libxml2\timsort.h(71) : warning C4028: formal parameter 1 different from
declaration
As suggested by Andrew W. Nosenko:
Proposal: expose the new xmlBufShrink() to the "public" API for
compatibility with xmlBufUse().
Reason: the following scenario:
1. Read something into xmlParserInputBuffer (e.g. using
xmlParserInputBufferRead())
2. Extract content through xmlBufContent()
3. Extract content length through xmlBufUse(). Result have type
'size_t'.
4. Use this content
5. Now, you need to shrink the buffer. How to do it? Doing that
through legacy xmlBufferShrink() is unsafe because it uses 'unsigned
int' and the whole point of introducing the new API was handling the
cases, when 'unsigned int' is not enough. Therefore, need to use the
new xmlBufShrink(). But it is "private".
Therefore, I propose to expose the new xmlBufShrink() in the same way,
as xmlBufContent() and xmlBufUse() are exposed.
Various cleanups
* configure.in: force regeneration of APIs in my environment
* buf.c buf.h enc.h encoding.c include/libxml/tree.h
include/libxml/xmlerror.h save.h tree.c: various comment cleanups
pointed by apibuild
* doc/apibuild.py: added the 3 new internal headers in the excludes
* doc/libxml2-api.xml doc/libxml2-refs.xml: regenerated the API
* doc/symbols.xml: listing new entry points for 2.9.0
* doc/devhelp/*: regenerated
Now tree.h exports LIBXML2_NEW_BUFFER macro indicating that the
API uses the new buffers, important to keep code working with
both versions.
* tree.h buf.h: also export xmlBufContent(), xmlBufEnd(), and xmlBufUse()
to help port the old code
* buf.c: make sure the compatibility counters are updated on
buffer usage, to keep proper working of application compiled
against the old structures, but take care of int overflow
* include/libxml/tree.h: adds xmlBufGetNodeContent and xmlBufNodeDump
as xmlBuf based equivalents of xmlNodeGetContent and xmlNodeDump
* tree.c: implements one new routine and converts xmlNodeBufGetContent
to use the xmlBuf equivalent. It should behave better as a result
in case of data larger than 2GB.
This also add converter functions between xmlBuf and xmlBuffer
* buf.c buf.h: the old xmlBuffer routines but modified for size_t
and using xmlBuf instead of xmlBuffer
* Makefile.am: add the 2 new files
* include/libxml/xmlerror.h: add an entry for the new module
* include/libxml/tree.h: expose the xmlBufPtr type but not the
structure which stay private
