Protocol Buffers v3.15.0-rc1

Added PHP changes for 3.15.0 into package.xml

Protocol Buffers v3.14.0

Protocol Compiler

• The proto compiler no longer requires a .proto filename when it is not
  generating code.
• Added flag --deterministic_output to protoc --encode=....
• Fixed deadlock when using google.protobuf.Any embedded in aggregate options.

C++

• Arenas are now unconditionally enabled. cc_enable_arenas no longer has
  any effect.
• Removed inlined string support, which is incompatible with arenas.
• Fix a memory corruption bug in reflection when mixing optional and
  non-optional fields.
• Make SpaceUsed() calculation more thorough for map fields.
• Add stack overflow protection for text format with unknown field values.
• FieldPath::FollowAll() now returns a bool to signal if an out-of-bounds
  error was encountered.
• Performance improvements for Map.
• Minor formatting fix when dumping a descriptor to .proto format with
  DebugString.
• UBSAN fix in RepeatedField (#2073).
• When running under ASAN, skip a test that makes huge allocations.
• Fixed a crash that could happen when creating more than 256 extensions in
  a single message.
• Fix a crash in BuildFile when passing in invalid descriptor proto.
• Parser security fix when operating with CodedInputStream.
• Warn against the use of AllowUnknownExtension.
• Migrated to C++11 for-range loops instead of index-based loops where
  possible. This fixes a lot of warnings when compiling with -Wsign-compare.
• Fix segment fault for proto3 optional (#7805)
• Adds a CMake option to build libprotoc separately (#7949)

Java

• Bugfix in mergeFrom() when a oneof has multiple message fields.
• Fix RopeByteString.RopeInputStream.read() returning -1 when told to read
  0 bytes when not at EOF.
• Redefine remove(Object) on primitive repeated field Lists to avoid
  autoboxing.
• Support "\u" escapes in textformat string literals.
• Trailing empty spaces are no longer ignored for FieldMask.
• Fix FieldMaskUtil.subtract to recursively remove mask.
• Mark enums with @java.lang.Deprecated if the proto enum has option
  deprecated = true;.
• Adding forgotten duration.proto to the lite library (#7738)

Python

• Print google.protobuf.NullValue as null instead of "NULL_VALUE" when it is
  used outside WKT Value/Struct.
• Fix bug occurring when attempting to deep copy an enum type in python 3.
• Add a setuptools extension for generating Python protobufs (#7783)
• Remove uses of pkg_resources in non-namespace packages. (#7902)
• [bazel/py] Omit google/init.py from the Protobuf runtime. (#7908)
• Removed the unnecessary setuptools package dependency for Python package (#7511)
• Fix PyUnknownFields memory leak (#7928)

PHP

• Added support for "==" to the PHP C extension (#7883)
• Added == operators for Map and Array. (#7900)
• Native C well-known types (#7944)
• Optimized away hex2bin() call in generated code (#8006)
• New version of upb, and a new hash function wyhash in third_party. (#8000)
• add missing hasOneof method to check presence of oneof fields (#8003)

Go

• Update go_package options to reference google.golang.org/protobuf module.

C#

• annotate ByteString.CopyFrom(ReadOnlySpan) as SecuritySafeCritical (#7701)
• Fix C# optional field reflection when there are regular fields too (#7705)
• Fix parsing negative Int32Value that crosses segment boundary (#8035)

Javascript

• JS: parse (un)packed fields conditionally (#7379)

Protocol Buffers v3.14.0-rc3

Update protobuf version

Protocol Buffers v3.14.0-rc2

Update protobuf version

Protocol Buffers v3.14.0-rc1

Update protobuf version

Protocol Buffers v3.13.0

PHP

• The C extension is completely rewritten. The new C extension has significantly
  better parsing performance and fixes a handful of conformance issues. It will
  also make it easier to add support for more features like proto2 and proto3 presence.
• The new C extension does not support PHP 5.x, which is the reason for the major
  version bump. PHP 5.x users can still use pure-PHP.

C++

• Removed deprecated unsafe arena string accessors
• Enabled heterogeneous lookup for std::string keys in maps.
• Removed implicit conversion from StringPiece to std::string
• Fix use-after-destroy bug when the Map is allocated in the arena.
• Improved the randomness of map ordering
• Added stack overflow protection for text format with unknown fields
• Use std::hash for proto maps to help with portability.
• Added more Windows macros to proto whitelist.
• Arena constructors for map entry messages are now marked "explicit"
  (for regular messages they were already explicit).
• Fix subtle aliasing bug in RepeatedField::Add
• Fix mismatch between MapEntry ByteSize and Serialize with respect to unset
  fields.

Python

• JSON format conformance fixes:
  • Reject lowercase t for Timestamp json format.
  • Print full_name directly for extensions (no camelCase).
  • Reject boolean values for integer fields.
  • Reject NaN, Infinity, -Infinity that is not quoted.
  • Base64 fixes for bytes fields: accept URL-safe base64 and missing padding.
• Bugfix for fields/files named "async" or "await".
• Improved the error message when AttributeError is returned from getattr
  in EnumTypeWrapper.

Java

• Fixed a bug where setting optional proto3 enums with setFooValue() would
  not mark the value as present.
• Add Subtract function to FieldMaskUtil.

C#

• Dropped support for netstandard1.0 (replaced by support for netstandard1.1).
  This was required to modernize the parsing stack to use the Span<byte>
  type internally. (#7351)
• Add ParseFrom(ReadOnlySequence<byte>) method to enable GC friendly
  parsing with reduced allocations and buffer copies. (#7351)
• Add support for serialization directly to a IBufferWriter<byte> or
  to a Span<byte> to enable GC friendly serialization.
  The new API is available as extension methods on the IMessage type. (#7576)
• Add GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_REFSTRUCT_COMPATIBILITY_MODE define to make
  generated code compatible with old C# compilers (pre-roslyn compilers
  from .NET framework and old versions of mono) that do not support
  ref structs. Users that are still on a legacy stack that does
  not support C# 7.2 compiler might need to use the new define
  in their projects to be able to build the newly generated code. (#7490)
• Due to the major overhaul of parsing and serialization internals (#7351 and #7576),
  it is recommended to regenerate your generated code to achieve the best
  performance (the legacy generated code will still work, but might incur
  a slight performance penalty).
