All releases of RNV


Release Notes: This release brings the patches from RNV 1.7.9's Debian package upstream. Besides the addition of a man page, this includes build related fixes only. If RNV 1.7.9 worked for you there is no need to update.


Release Notes: GNU build files were introduced.


Release Notes: This release fixes a bug in handling of built-in data types (token and string).


Release Notes: The pattern space compression algorithm has been rewritten; two serious bugs have recently been found in it. It should be correct now, and if it is still not, debugging should become much easier.


Release Notes: Two ways to use extension datatype libraries have been implemented: either external program or built-in Scheme interpreter. These allow the datatype-checking capabilities of Relax NG to be extended far beyond the scope of XML Schema datatypes. RNV now parses external system entities, as it was an omission not to implement this earlier. Memory usage and diagnostics have been improved. The source code has been rearranged again for better modularity.


Release Notes: This release fixes a bug in the grammar parser which might cause an assertion failure during processing of "parent" patterns.


Release Notes: To facilitate the embedding of RNV into heterogeneous environments, RVP was created. RVP is a pipe that expects validation primitives on one end and emits validation diagnostics from the other. Embedding examples in Perl and Python are provided. This provides fast and compliant Relax NG validation solutions for these languages. Several changes have been made to the core modules, mostly to provide better separation of layers.


Release Notes: Changes were made to rnv and arx in order to support UTF-8.


Release Notes: This release has many performance and convenience enhancements. Pattern pools are now one-dimensional arrays, which conserves space and gives better performance. Pass-through mode has been added to facilitate use of rnv in pipes. ARX, a utility to automatically associate documents and grammars, is now included in the distribution. A simple plugin for Vim is provided, to use RNV with the editor. The script uses ARX to automatically choose the grammar for a document.


Release Notes: The XML Schema datatypes have been implemented, error reporting has been reworked (it has hopefully become clear and consistent), performance has improved, and bugs have been fixed.
