Full Changelog: 1.9.5...1.9.6

Bug-fixes

• Minor bug-fixes (including for cmake)
• Support for Bazel
• Dropped compile-time deprecation warnings

Security and build system fixes

This patch contains several fixes found through the OSS-Fuzz project fuzzing, increasing the security of the library, as well as some fixes for different build systems.

1.9.3: Bug fixes, optimizations, cleanup

Fix #1181 : Update the version tag - 1.9.3.

---

This release includes several important bug fixes for unblocking some consumer's use cases.

1. Fixes to JSON_USE_EXCEPTION--some bugs creeped in breaking this flag in pre-release.
2. Fixes to build system--improvements have been make for code correctness.
3. Compile errors for various platforms have been resolved.
4. Fuzzing has been fixed.
5. Various bugs in the Reader and Writer code have been corrected.
6. CPPTL support has been dropped.
7. Various code improvements and optimizations.

00.11.0

This release is based on branch 00.11.z, which is different from branch 0.y.z and 1.y.z.

The main purpose of this release is to give users a third choice, that is, users can only have a copy of the code, but can build in different environments, so it can be used with old or newer compilers.

The benefit is that users can use some new features in this new branch that introduced in 1.y.z,
but can hardly applied into 0.y.z.

All changes in the source code are for compatibility with pre-C++11 and C++11 standards. At the same time , we add more CIs to ensure all changes in all environments can work well.

Medium size pre-release containing lots of build fixes

We are still working towards a release that we consider completely "stable." However, since multiple build fixes have been consumed since 1.9.1, here is a prerelease 1.9.2 build that contains those fixes.

Minor patches

This release contains some minor build fixes.

Medium-Large release containing 200 commits, bugfixes, enhancements

It's been ~2 years since the last release, so this has quite a few changes. Some highlights:

• Build optimizations and updates. Now needs at least Meson 0.50.0, bot support for VS 2013 dropped in favor of VS 2017 (#952, #955, #934, #933, #932, #911, #883, many others...).
• Lots of bug fixes (incl. #902, #872, #869,
• Lots of enhancements (#873, #
• Lots of cleanup (#870, #867, #865, #864, #847, #849, ...)

Mostly minor bug fixes and improvements, not too many big changes--not ready for version 2.0.0 release yet.
