    5555<p> 
    56 SOAP4R/1.4.4 still had a bug around detecting XML processor. 
    57 SOAP4R/1.4.4.1 fixes this problem.  REXML users should update to 1.4.4.1. 
    58 I'm sorry for unstable and frequent release. 
    59 </p> 
    60  
    61 <p> 
    62 This is a bug fix release. 
    63 Following users should update. 
    64 </p> 
    65  
    66 <ul> 
    67 <li>Users who use DateTime datatype.</li> 
    68 <li>Developers of SOAP client/server which works under multi-thread condition.</li> 
    69 <li>REXML users.</li> 
    70 </ul> 
    71  
    72 <p> 
    73 Fixed bugs. 
    74 </p> 
    75  
    76 <ul> 
    77 <li>XSDDataTime: Changed variable name usec to sec_frac.  It's not a micro sec so name usec is misleading.</li> 
    78 <li>XSDTime: Fixed bugs in usec part.</li> 
    79 <li>date.rb in standard library and date2 version 3 conflicts because date2.rb is a successor of date.rb and not designed for dual use. 
    80 (ex. using a module which requires date.rb like DBI and another module which requires date2.rb). 
    81 Added a workaround for this.</li> 
    82 <li>SOAP::Processor was not MT-safe.  Fixed. 
    83 Projected feature regards to MT are follows. 
    84 At least I hope so.  Tell me if you find these wrong. 
    85 <ul> 
    86 <li>Driver: safe</li> 
    87 <li>Proxy: safe</li> 
    88 <li>Server: safe</li> 
    89 <li>CGIStub: safe</li> 
    90 <li>StandaloneServer: safe</li> 
    91 <li>RPCRouter: safe</li> 
    92 <li>StreamHandler: safe</li> 
    93 <li>Processor: safe</li> 
    94 <li>SOAPParser: unsafe</li> 
    95 <li>SOAPGenerator: unsafe</li> 
    96 <li>EncodingStyleHandler: unsafe</li> 
    97 </ul> 
    98 </li> 
    99 <li>SOAP4R/1.4.3 supports REXML/2.1.3 but it did not detect REXML processor automatically.</li> 
    100 </ul> 
     56This version has these enhancements; 
     57</p> 
     58<ul> 
     59<li>Supports all primitive datatypes of XML Schema Part2 Datatypes except NOTATION. 
     60Added types are Duration, gYearMonth, anyURI, QName and so on.</li> 
     61<li>Runs much faster than earlier versions. 
     62Some performance check and tuning has been done.</li> 
     63<li>Supports all Ruby objects marshalling/unmarshalling 
     64except some special objects.  See below for more detail.</li> 
     65</ul> 
     66 
     67<p> 
     68CAUTION: This version requires 
     69<a href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa-list.rhtml?name=date2">[RAA:date2]</a> version 3.2 or later and 
     70<a href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa-list.rhtml?name=http-access2">[RAA:http-access2]</a> version F. 
     71Please make sure the versions you use. 
     72</p>

     74<p> 
     75Here is detail of change. 
     76</p> 
     77 
     78<dl> 
     79<dt>Datatypes (XMLSchemaDatatypes.rb and baseData.rb)</dt> 
     80<dd> 
     81<ul> 
     82<li>Added duration, gYearMonth, gYear, gMonthDay, gDay, gMonth, anyURI and QName datetypes. 
     83All primitive datatypes in XML Schema Part 2 section 3.2 except NOTAION are supported now.</li> 
     84<li>Modified XSDDataTime, XSDDate and XSDTime implementation.  These use a DataTime as a data holder.</li> 
     85<li>Follow date/3.2: date2.rb -&gt; date.rb.</li> 
     86<li>Changed to_s representations of single float and double float.  Thanks to gotoken.</li> 
     87<li>XSDFloat: Add '0' if given str ends with 'E'.  Float( "-1.4E" ) might fail on some system.</li> 
     88<li>Added SOAPRawString class.  Given string is embedded into XML instance directly. 
     89You can use this class to embed (numeric) character references manually.</li> 
     90<li>Fixed UTF8 regexp bug.  XSDString uses this regexp to check a given string.</li> 
     91<li>Added UT for XMLSchemaDatatypes.rb.  See test/xsd_ut.rb and test/baseData_ut.rb.</li> 
     92</ul></dd> 
     93 
     94<dt>SOAP &lt;-&gt; Ruby object mapping (mappingRegistry.rb and rpcUtils.rb)</dt> 
     95<dd> 
     96<ul> 
     97<li>Exception raised from server side could not be mapped to specific exception.  Fixed.</li> 
     98<li>Refactoring to avoid *_eval.  Reduced warnings.</li> 
     99<li>Added Range marshalling support.</li> 
     100<li>Regexp#options support under ruby/1.6.</li> 
     101<li>Supports cyclic Range such as; 
     102<pre> 
     103  class Foo 
     104    attr_accessor :foo 
     105    def succ; end 
     106    def &lt;=&gt;( rhs ); end 
     107  end 
     108 
     109  o1 = Foo.new 
     110  o2 = Foo.new 
     111  r = o1..o2 
     112  o1.foo = r 
     113 
     114  p SOAPMarshal.load( SOAPMarshal.dump( r )) 
     115</pre></li> 
     116<li>Supports some instance variable of ruby standard class. 
     117But instance variable of Array, Hash, String, Float and Bignum are not supported because of restriction of SOAP encoding format...</li> 
     118<li>Alias ::SOAPMarshal to ::SOAP::Marshal.</li> 
     119<li>Added Marshal.load and Marshal.dump as aliases to Marshal.unmarshal and 
     120  Marshal.unmarshal.</li> 
     121</ul></dd> 
     122 
     123<dt>misc</dt> 
     124<dd> 
     125<ul> 
     126<li>Dumps what parser is used when $DEBUG.  Try 'ruby -d -rsoap/processor -e 0'</li> 
     127<li>Added CGI samples in sample/.</li> 
     128<li>Some performance check and tuning has been done on both client and server side. 
     129One bottle neck is Kernel.methods which SOAP4R use(d) while mapping SOAP Data Model &lt;-&gt; Ruby object. 
     130I replaced it with Object.respond_to? . 
     131Another bottle neck of client side is delegate.rb which is used by http-access2. 
     132Get <a href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa-list.rhtml?name=http-access2">[RAA:http-access2]</a> version F.
