    - EUC-KR now returned as UHC: despite differences, mostly upward
      compatible. Let's return UHC until separate detection machines are
      implemented.
    - `uchardet` CLI tool now supports the end-of-options `--` option to be
      able to process any file starting with a dash.
    - uchardet_handle_data() API considers an empty string input as
      successful processing to improve automatic detection from random
      input sources.
    - Repository code now requires C++1 standard.
    - Better Windows DLL support for non-GNU compilers.
    - Gitlab continuous integration for GCC, CLang on Debian, and Windows 32
      and 64-bit with Mingw-w64.
    - Several bugs fixed.
  • v0.0.6
    8a8d6b65 · Release: version 0.0.6. ·
    Version 0.0.6 released.
    
    - Improve ASCII and ISO-8859-1 detection.
    - Improve language models: Greek, Hungarian.
    - New supports:
      * Arabic - ISO-8859-6 and Windows-1256.
      * Danish - Windows-1252, ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15.
      * Spanish - ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-15 and Windows-1252.
      * Vietnamese - VISCII and Windows-1258.
    - Improve single-byte encoding detection algorithm by giving more weight
      to "probable" sequences (less frequent than "positive" sequence, yet
      not "negative").
    - `uchardet` command line tool improved:
      * exits with non-zero return values on error.
    - CMake build improved with more options:
      * Binary can be installed to non-default dir.
      * Allow building static-only builds.
      * Allow not building the command line tool.
      * Add static lib destination.
  • v0.0.5
    886e03a5 · Release: version 0.0.5. ·
    Version 0.0.5 released.
    
    - Revert UTF-16 and UTF-32 label change:
      it was an error to specify endianness for texts with BOM.
      The Unicode standard explicitly warns against it, and it actually
      even (partially) break conversions.
    - Added supports:
        - French: Windows-1252.
        - German: ISO-8859-1, Windows-1252
        - Esperanto: ISO-8859-3
        - Turkish: ISO-8859-3 and ISO-8859-9
        - Thai: ISO-8859-11 (and TIS-620 model rebuilt).
    - Single Byte charset detection algorithm improved:
      detection of control characters lowers confidence.
  • v0.0.4
    e4260f4a · Release: version 0.0.4. ·
    Version 0.0.4 released.
    
    - Add support of ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15 for French.
    - Re-enable Hungarian language models (ISO-8859-2 and Windows-1250)
      which used to conflict with other charsets (should be better now).
    - Differentiate ASCII detection and detection failure.
    - Improve single-byte charset detection confidence algorithm (fixes for
      instance Windows-1251 Russian text detection).
    - "UTF-16" is now outputted with endianness information (UTF-16LE/BE).
    - Add UTF-32 BOM detection.
    - Discard single byte charsets upon illegal codepoint detection.
    - Internal redesign of single-byte charmaps with more semantics, and
      variable sample size length (different languages have different sizes
      of grapheme lists).
    - A lot more test files (33 successful unit tests should be successful
      with `make test`).
    - Adding python scripts to generate language models from Wikipedia data
      in a single command.
  • v0.0.3
    ff5fd5ef · Release: version 0.0.3. ·
    Version 0.0.3 Released.
    
    A quick release after 0.0.2 mostly to fix a bad crash on the command
    line tool when charset detection failed (or detected ASCII).
    
    Additionaly:
    
    - The build now includes more test files for various language/encoding
      and a `make test` target for unit testing (20 encoding detection tests
      should be successful upon running it).
    - The build has a new BUILD_STATIC option, by default set to ON,
      allowing to disable static library building if not needed.
    - All encoding names are iconv-compatible, enabling developers to
      directly feed the result of uchardet_get_charset() into libiconv.
    - Compilation warnings fixed.
  • v0.0.2
    d0ccdd5d · Release: version 0.0.2. ·
