ANNOUNCE: tDOM 0.9.5

[Rolf Ade]

tDOM 0.9.5 works with Tcl 8.5, 8.6 and 9.0.

Beside bug fixes and general improvements this release includes

- Updated expat (2.6.3) and TEA.

- Added the method asCanonicalXML to serialize as Canonical XML
(https://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315).

- Even more options (-escapeCR and -escapeTab) to control the asXML
serialization.

- Added the asTclValue method which return JSON data as simple nested
Tcl lists.

- Added the asTypedList method which return JSON data as typed nested
Tcl lists very much as huddle or tjson have it.

- Added the createFromTypedList method which provides another way to
the already present ones to create JSON data from the scratch.

- With Tcl 9 now even on LLP64 platforms (windows 64-bit most
prominently, perhaps the only notable one) there are single text
nodes with more than 2 GBytes length possible (LP64 platforms - as
Unix, Linux, Mac - had this already with tDOM 0.9.4).

See the CHANGES files in the top-level directory of the source
distribution for a more detailed list, and the timeline of the
official tDOM repository at https://tdom.org/index.html/timeline for a
complete list of changes.

For downloads and other information see the README on http://tdom.org.
Additional to the source code packages Windows binaries for Tcl 8.6
and Tcl 9 for 32-bit and 64-bit are provided. Bare access at
http://tdom.org/downloads/

+1 !

I am fascinated by the increasing support of JSON which looks just easy
to use. At the end, I need only one tool for XML and JSON !

Thanks,
Harald

Unfortunately I missed to regenerate the HTML and man versions of one of
the changed xml documentation files (domDoc.xml). Thanks goes to Gregor
who noticed and reported.

Since there is no code change, I regenerated this files, moved the
release tags and replaced the source code archives in the download
directory.

I'm sorry for any confusion and inconvenience from this.
