Previously, we'd output a couple of new lines between the start and end
of the object, whereas the stdlib doesn't bother with whitespace if
they're empty.
In my testing, the only difference in indented serialization now is
float representation.
To fix issues with floating-point precision we've made use of Google's
double-conversion lib to handle conversions of doubles to and from strings.
In addition to fixing our precision problems this will improve double
encoding by 4-5x. Decoding is however slightly slower according to the
benchmarks - but accurate at least.
This change removes the double_precision encoding option and the
precise_float decoding option.
- Fixed segfault when using sort_keys=True on dict with unorderable keys (GH247)
- Fixed refcount becoming negative when using sort_keys=True (GH243)
- Fixed compile error when defining JSON_NO_EXTRA_WHITESPACE
caused by a wrongly named variable. (GH245)
1. It reduces clutter in symbol table.
2. It fixes issues with C99 inline semantics for functions
marked as inline (#237, #180, #222), which manifests
when compiled with GCC>=5.
both Python 2 and Python 3, removing the need for 2to3 to be run. This
indirectly fixes #177.
* Corrected a duplicate-named method in the unit testing code. Corrected the
now-exposed broken logic that wasn't being tested. This was
highlighted in #186 but the author did not appear to realise that the
method name was being masked in the unit test class.
* Corrected the test case skipping logic to use unittest.skipIf instead
of just returning from the method upon an ImportError so that the skip
can actually be registered as a skipped test instead of a passed test.
* Updated the tests to additionally run on Python 3.5 on Travis. This
covers #195.
* Merged the two benchmarking files into one, and modularised the code.
Also added native RST output so the benchmarking results can be placed
directly into the README file.
