Add a new configuration flag that controls whether the outdated support
for XPointer locations (ranges and points) is enabled.
--with-xptr-locs # Autotools
LIBXML2_WITH_XPTR_LOCS # CMake
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.
The flag defaults to "off" and support for this extensions has to be
requested explicitly. The relevant API functions are deprecated.
* elfgcchack.h doc/elfgcchack.xsl libxml.h: hack based on Arjan van de
Ven suggestion to reduce ELF footprint and generated code. Based on
aliasing of libraries function to generate direct call instead of
indirect ones
* doc/libxml2-api.xml doc/Makefile.am doc/apibuild.py: added automatic
generation of elfgcchack.h based on the API description, extended
the API description to show the conditionals configuration flags
required for symbols.
* nanohttp.c parser.c xmlsave.c include/libxml/*.h: lot of cleanup
* doc/*: regenerated the docs.
Daniel
* python/generator.py, python/libxml2class.txt: fixed problem
pointed out by Stphane Bidoul on the list.
* xinclude.c, xpointer.c, xpath.c, include/libxml/xpointer.h:
completed modifications required to fix Bug 129967 (at last!).
Now wait to see how long before further trouble...
* parser.c, xmlmemory.c, include/libxml/xmlmemory.h: Fixed
memory leak reported by Dave Beckett
* xmlschemas.c: Removed spurious comment reported on the mailing
list
* xinclude.c, xpath.c, xpointer.c, libxml/include/xpointer.h:
Further work on Bug 129967 concerning xpointer range handling
and range-to function; much better, but still not complete
* include/libxml/*.h include/libxml/*.h.in: modified the file
header to add more informations, painful...
* genChRanges.py genUnicode.py: updated to generate said changes
in headers
* doc/apibuild.py: extract headers, add them to libxml2-api.xml
* *.html *.xsl *.xml: updated the stylesheets to flag geprecated
APIs modules. Updated the stylesheets, some cleanups, regenerated
* doc/html/*.html: regenerated added back book1 and libxml-lib.html
Daniel
* AUTHORS: added William and Bjorn
* include/libxml/*.h *.c README doc/*.html etc.: changed old email to
daniel@veillard.com hopefully I won't have to do this again
* doc/Makefile.am doc/html/*.html: cleanup makefile, checked that
docs can be rebuilt cleanly now
* include/libxml/xml*version.h*: removed include/libxml/xmlversion.h
from CVs it's generated, added include/libxml/xmlwin32version.h
also generated but which should change far less frequently.
* catalog.c nanoftp.c: made sure to include libxml.h not
libxml/xmlversion.h directly
* include/libxml/*.h: include xmlwin32version.h instead of xmlversion.h
when compiling on WIN32 and MSC

stuff like libxslt right now:
- Makefile.am: detect XPath memleaks in regreson tests
- error.c: fixed and error w.r.t. error reporting still using
stderr
- hash.c: added new line at end of file
- tree.h: minor cleanup
- xpath.[ch] xpointer.[ch]: Major changes ! Separated XPath
expression parsing from evaluation, resulted in a number of
changes internally, and in XPointer. Likely to break stuff
using xpathInternals.h but should remain binary compatible,
new interfaces will be added.

* *.c *.h libxml files: moved to libxml directory - this allow
simplify automake/autoconf. Now isn't neccessary hack on
am/ac level for make and remove libxml symlink (modified for this
also configure.in and main Makefile.am). Now automake abilities
are used in best way (like in many other projects with libraries).
* include/win32config.h: moved to libxml directory (now include
directory isn't neccessary).
* Makefile.am, examples/Makefile.am, libxml/Makefile.am:
added empty DEFS and in INCLUDES rest only -I$(top_builddir) -
this allow minimize parameters count passed to libtool script
(now compilation is also slyghtly more quiet).
* configure.in: simplifies libzdetestion - prepare separated
variables for keep libz name and path to libz header files isn't
realy neccessary (if someone have libz installed in non standard
prefix path to header files ald library can be passed as:
$ CFALGS="-I</libz.h/path>" LDFLAGS="-L</libz/path>" ./configure
* autogen.sh: check now for libxml/entities.h.
After above building libxml pass correctly and also pass
"make install DESTDIR=</install/prefix>" from tar ball generated by
"make dist". Seems ac/am reorganization is finished. This changes
not touches any other things on *.{c,h} files level.
- HTMLparser.c: some fixes on auto-open of html/head/body
- encoding.c: fixed a compilation error on some gcc env
- xpath.c xpointer.[ch] xpathInternals.h: improved the
XPointer implementation
- test/XPath/xptr/strpoint test/XPath/xptr/strrange3: added
related XPointer tests and associated results
Daniel
- nanohttp.[ch]: applied Wayne Davison patches to access
the WWW-Authorization header.
- parser.c: Closed Bug#30847: Problems when switching encoding
in short files by applying Simon Berg's patch.
- valid.c: fixed a validation problem
- hash.c parser.h parserInternals.h testHTML.c testSAX.c tree.h
xmlerror.h xmlmemory.h xmlversion.h.in: applied a DLL patch from
Wayne Davison
- xpointer.[ch]: added first version of xmlXPtrBuildNodeList()
need to be extended to non full nodes selections.
- xinclude.c: starts to work decently
