CHANGELOG

1.10.1 (2021-04-14)

• Fix a TypeError exception in the pure PHP reader when using large databases on 32-bit PHP builds with the bcmath extension. Reported by dodo1708. GitHub #124.

1.10.0 (2021-02-09)

• When using the pure PHP reader, unsigned integers up to PHP_MAX_INT will now be integers in PHP rather than strings. Previously integers greater than 2^24 on 32-bit platforms and 2^56 on 64-bit platforms would be strings due to the use of gmp or bcmath to decode them. Reported by Alejandro Celaya. GitHub #119.

1.9.0 (2021-01-07)

• The maxminddb extension is now buildable on Windows. Pull request by Jan Ehrhardt. GitHub #115.

1.8.0 (2020-10-01)

• Fixes for PHP 8.0. Pull Request by Remi Collet. GitHub #108.

1.7.0 (2020-08-07)

• IMPORTANT: PHP 7.2 or greater is now required.
• The extension no longer depends on the pure PHP classes in maxmind-db/reader. You can use it independently.
• Type hints have been added to both the pure PHP implementation and the extension.
• The metadata method on the reader now returns a new copy of the metadata object rather than the actual object used by the reader.
• Work around PHP is_readable() bug. Reported by Ben Roberts. GitHub #92.
• This is the first release of the extension as a PECL package. GitHub #34.

1.6.0 (2019-12-19)

• 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 contained a possible memory corruptions when using getWithPrefixLen. This has been fixed. Reported by proton-ab. GitHub #96.
• The composer.json file now conflicts with all versions of the maxminddb C extension less than the Composer version. This is to reduce the chance of having an older, conflicting version of the extension installed. You will need to upgrade the extension before running composer update. Pull request by Benoît Burnichon. GitHub #97.

1.5.1 (2019-12-12)

• Minor performance improvements.
• Make tests pass with older versions of libmaxminddb. PR by Remi Collet. GitHub #90.
• Test enhancements. PR by Chun-Sheng, Li. GitHub #91.

1.5.0 (2019-09-30)

• PHP 5.6 or greater is now required.
• The C extension now supports PHP 8. Pull request by John Boehr. GitHub #87.
• A new method, getWithPrefixLen, was added to the Reader class. This method returns an array containing the record and the prefix length for that record. GitHub #89.

1.4.1 (2019-01-04)

• The maxminddb extension now returns a string when a uint32 value is greater than LONG_MAX. Previously, the value would overflow. This generally only affects 32-bit machines. Reported by Remi Collet. GitHub #79.
• For uint64 values, the maxminddb extension now returns an integer rather than a string when the value is less than or equal to LONG_MAX. This more closely matches the behavior of the pure PHP reader.

1.4.0 (2018-11-20)

• The maxminddb extension now has the arginfo when using reflection. PR by Remi Collet. GitHub #75.
• The maxminddb extension now provides MINFO() function that displays the extension version and the libmaxminddb version. PR by Remi Collet. GitHub #74.
• The maxminddb configure script now uses pkg-config when available to get libmaxmindb build info. PR by Remi Collet. GitHub #73.
• The pure PHP reader now correctly decodes integers on 32-bit platforms. Previously, large integers would overflow. Reported by Remi Collet. GitHub #77.
• There are small performance improvements for the pure PHP reader.

1.3.0 (2018-02-21)

• IMPORTANT: The maxminddb extension now obeys open_basedir. If open_basedir is set, you must store the database within the specified directory. Placing the file outside of this directory will result in an exception. Please test your integration before upgrading the extension. This does not affect the pure PHP implementation, which has always had this restriction. Reported by Benoît Burnichon. GitHub #61.
• A custom autoload.php file is provided for installations without Composer. GitHub #56.

1.2.0 (2017-10-27)

• PHP 5.4 or greater is now required.
• The Reader class for the maxminddb extension is no longer final. This was change to match the behavior of the pure PHP class. Reported and fixed by venyii. GitHub #52 & #54.

1.1.3 (2017-01-19)

• Fix incorrect version in ext/php_maxminddb.h. GitHub #48.

1.1.2 (2016-11-22)

• Searching for database metadata only occurs within the last 128KB (128 * 1024 bytes) of the file, speeding detection of corrupt datafiles. Reported by Eric Teubert. GitHub #42.
• Suggest relevant extensions when installing with Composer. GitHub #37.

1.1.1 (2016-09-15)

• Development files were added to the .gitattributes as export-ignore so that they are not part of the Composer release. Pull request by Michele Locati. GitHub #39.

1.1.0 (2016-01-04)

• The MaxMind DB extension now supports PHP 7. Pull request by John Boehr. GitHub #27.

1.0.3 (2015-03-13)

• All uses of strlen were removed. This should prevent issues in situations where the function is overloaded or otherwise broken.

1.0.2 (2015-01-19)

• Previously the MaxMind DB extension would cause a segfault if the Reader object's destructor was called without first having called the constructor. (Reported by Matthias Saou & Juan Peri. GitHub #20.)

1.0.1 (2015-01-12)

• In the last several releases, the version number in the extension was incorrect. This release is being done to correct it. No other code changes are included.

1.0.0 (2014-09-22)

• First production release.
• In the pure PHP reader, a string length test after fread() was replaced with the difference between the start pointer and the end pointer. This provided a 15% speed increase.

0.3.3 (2014-09-15)

• Clarified behavior of 128-bit type in documentation.
• Updated phpunit and fixed some test breakage from the newer version.

0.3.2 (2014-09-10)

• Fixed invalid reference to global class RuntimeException from namespaced code. Fixed by Steven Don. GitHub issue #15.
• Additional documentation of Metadata class as well as misc. documentation cleanup.

0.3.1 (2014-05-01)

• The API now works when mbstring.func_overload is set.
• BCMath is no longer required. If the decoder encounters a big integer, it will try to use GMP and then BCMath. If both of those fail, it will throw an exception. No databases released by MaxMind currently use big integers.
• The API now officially supports HHVM when using the pure PHP reader.

0.3.0 (2014-02-19)

• This API is now licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
• The code for the C extension was cleaned up, fixing several potential issues.

0.2.0 (2013-10-21)

• Added optional C extension for using libmaxminddb in place of the pure PHP reader.
• Significantly improved error handling in pure PHP reader.
• Improved performance for IPv4 lookups in an IPv6 database.

0.1.0 (2013-07-16)

• Initial release
