3.5.0 (2015-11-13) ================== Bugs fixed ---------- * Unicode string results failed XPath queries in PyPy. * LP#1497051: HTML target parser failed to terminate on exceptions and continued parsing instead. * Deprecated API usage in doctestcompare. 3.5.0b1 (2015-09-18) ==================== Features added -------------- * ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``keep_ns_prefixes`` that does not remove definitions of the provided prefix-namespace mapping from the tree. * ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``top_nsmap`` that moves definitions of the provided prefix-namespace mapping to the top of the tree. * LP#1490451: ``Element`` objects gained a ``cssselect()`` method as known from ``lxml.html``. Patch by Simon Sapin. * API functions and methods behave and look more like Python functions, which allows introspection on them etc. One side effect to be aware of is that the functions now bind as methods when assigned to a class variable. A quick fix is to wrap them in ``staticmethod()`` (as for normal Python functions). * ISO-Schematron support gained an option ``error_finder`` that allows passing a filter function for picking validation errors from reports. * LP#1243600: Elements in ``lxml.html`` gained a ``classes`` property that provides a set-like interface to the ``class`` attribute. Original patch by masklinn. * LP#1341964: The soupparser now handles DOCTYPE declarations, comments and processing instructions outside of the root element. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * LP#1421512: The ``docinfo`` of a tree was made editable to allow setting and removing the public ID and system ID of the DOCTYPE. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * LP#1442427: More work-arounds for quirks and bugs in pypy and pypy3. * ``lxml.html.soupparser`` now uses BeautifulSoup version 4 instead of version 3 if available. Bugs fixed ---------- * Memory errors that occur during tree adaptations (e.g. moving subtrees to foreign documents) could leave the tree in a crash prone state. * Calling ``process_children()`` in an XSLT extension element without an ``output_parent`` argument failed with a ``TypeError``. Fix by Jens Tröger. * GH#162: Image data in HTML ``data`` URLs is considered safe and no longer removed by ``lxml.html.clean`` JavaScript cleaner. * GH#166: Static build could link libraries in wrong order. * GH#172: Rely a bit more on libxml2 for encoding detection rather than rolling our own in some cases. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * GH#159: Validity checks for names and string content were tightened to detect the use of illegal characters early. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * LP#1421921: Comments/PIs before the DOCTYPE declaration were not serialised. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * LP#659367: Some HTML DOCTYPE declarations were not serialised. Patch by Olli Pottonen. * LP#1238503: lxml.doctestcompare is now consistent with stdlib's doctest in how it uses ``+`` and ``-`` to refer to unexpected and missing output. * Empty prefixes are explicitly rejected when a namespace mapping is used with ElementPath to avoid hiding bugs in user code. * Several problems with PyPy were fixed by switching to Cython 0.23. |
