1.0.1 (2021-11-13)
* Fix a buffer overflow error in XZ::Stream (PR Quintus#17 by genail)
* Fix an issue with transcode_options that was introduced by Ruby 3 (PR
win93#1 by Alex Gittemeier)
* Update project README, gemspec, and other metadata to reflect a change in
maintainership. All prior releases were released by Marvin Gülker.
== 1.0.0 (2018-05-20)
* *BreakingChange* The XZ module's methods now take any parameters
beyond the IO object as real Ruby keyword arguments rather than
a long argument list.
* *BreakingChange* XZ.decompress_stream now honours Ruby's
external and internal encoding concept instead of just
returning BINARY-tagged strings.
* *BreakingChange* Remove deprecated API on stream reader/writer
class and instead sync the API with Ruby's zlib library
(Ticket #12 by me).
* *BreakingChange* StreamWriter.new and StreamReader.new do not accept
a block anymore. This is part of syncing with Ruby's zlib API.
* *BreakingChange* StreamReader.open and StreamWriter.open always
return the new instance, even if a block is given to the method
(previous behaviour was to return the return value of the block).
This is part of the syncing with Ruby's zlib API.
* *BreakingChange* StreamReader.new and StreamWriter.new as well as
the ::open variants take additional arguments as real Ruby keyword
arguments now instead of a long parameter list plus options hash.
This is different from Ruby's own zlib API as that one takes both
a long parameter list and a hash of additional options. ruby-xz
is meant to follow zlib's semantics mostly, but not as a drop-in
replacement, so this divergence from zlib's API is okay (also
given that it isn't possible to replicate all possible options
1:1 anyway, since liblzma simply accepts different options as
libz). If you've never used these methods' optional arguments,
you should be fine.
* *BreakingChange* Stream#close now returns nil instead of the
number of bytes written. This syncs Stream#close with Ruby's
own IO#close, which also returns nil.
* *BreakingChange* Remove Stream#pos=, Stream#seek, Stream#stat. These
methods irritated the minitar gem, which doesn't expect them to
raise NotImplementedError, but directly to be missing if the object
does not support seeking.
* *BreakingChange* StreamReader and StreamWriter now honour Ruby's
encoding system instead of returning only BINARY-tagged strings.
* *Dependency* Remove dependency on ffi. ruby-xz now uses fiddle from
the stdlib instead.
* *Dependency* Remove dependency on io-like. ruby-xz now implements
all the IO mechanics itself. (Ticket #10 by me)
* *Dependency* Bump required Ruby version to 2.3.0.
* *Fix* libzlma.dylib not being found on OS X (Ticket #15 by
s0nspark).
== 0.2.3 (2015-12-29)
* *Fix* documentation of XZ module (a :nodoc: was causing havoc
in the XZ module so it appeared to have no methods).
* No other changes this release.
== 0.2.2 (2015-12-27)
* *Add* XZ.disable_deprecation_notices
* *Deprecate* use of XZ::StreamReader.open with an IO argument
* *Deprecate* use of XZ::StreamReader.new with a filename argument
* *Deprecate* use of XZ::StreamWriter.open with an IO argument
* *Deprecate* use of XZ::StreamWriter.new with a filename argument
* *Deprecate* nonautomatic IO close in XZ::StreamReader#close
* *Deprecate* nonautomatic IO close in XZ::StreamWriter#close
* *Fix* incompatibility with Resolv.getaddress() in Ruby 2.2 (Ticket #13
by Ken Simon)
* Goal of these deprecations is to sync the API with Ruby’s own
Zlib::GzipWriter and Zlib::GzipReader mostly.
* Add required versions to gemspec.
* Comment format cleanup, results in better docs.
* Internal code cleanup
* Add more tests.
The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.
Problems found with existing distfile for eagle:
distfiles/bicom101.zip

No changes made to these distinfo files.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
0.2.1 (2014-02-08)
* Build the gem properly on Ruby 2.0+ (PR #8 by Nana Sakisaka (saki7))
* Release the GIL when interfacing with liblzma (PR #7 by Lars Christensen
* (larsch))
0.2.0 (2013-06-23)
* Fix#6 (errors on JRuby) by Ben Nagy
* Remove 1.8 compatibility
== 0.1.0
* <b>Add XZ::StreamReader and XZ::StreamWriter for io-like behaviour.</b>
* New dependency on the +io-like+ gem.
* <b>Add Ruby 1.8 compatibility.</b> Thanks to Christoph Plank.
* We now have proper unit tests.
ruby-xz is a basic binding for liblzma that allows you to create and
extract XZ-compressed archives. It can cope with big files as well as
small ones, but doesn't offer much of the possibilities liblzma itself
has.
