Name: lxml
Version: 3.5.0b1
Summary: Powerful and Pythonic XML processing library combining libxml2/libxslt with the ElementTree API.

Author-email: lxml-dev@lxml.de
License: UNKNOWN
Description: lxml is a Pythonic, mature binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries.  It
        provides safe and convenient access to these libraries using the ElementTree
        API.
        
        It extends the ElementTree API significantly to offer support for XPath,
        RelaxNG, XML Schema, XSLT, C14N and much more.
        
        To contact the project, go to the `project home page
        <http://lxml.de/>`_ or see our bug tracker at
        https://launchpad.net/lxml
        
        In case you want to use the current in-development version of lxml,
        you can get it from the github repository at
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml .  Note that this requires Cython to
        build the sources, see the build instructions on the project home
        page.  To the same end, running ``easy_install lxml==dev`` will
        install lxml from
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tarball/master#egg=lxml-dev if you have
        an appropriate version of Cython installed.
        
        3.5.0b1 (2015-09-18)
        ====================
        
        Features added
        --------------
        
        * ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``keep_ns_prefixes``
          that does not remove definitions of the provided prefix-namespace
          mapping from the tree.
        
        * ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``top_nsmap`` that
          moves definitions of the provided prefix-namespace mapping to the
          top of the tree.
        
        * LP#1490451: ``Element`` objects gained a ``cssselect()`` method as
          known from ``lxml.html``.  Patch by Simon Sapin.
        
        * API functions and methods behave and look more like Python functions,
          which allows introspection on them etc.  One side effect to be aware of
          is that the functions now bind as methods when assigned to a class
          variable.  A quick fix is to wrap them in ``staticmethod()`` (as for
          normal Python functions).
        
        * ISO-Schematron support gained an option ``error_finder`` that allows
          passing a filter function for picking validation errors from reports.
        
        * LP#1243600: Elements in ``lxml.html`` gained a ``classes`` property
          that provides a set-like interface to the ``class`` attribute.
          Original patch by masklinn.
        
        * LP#1341964: The soupparser now handles DOCTYPE declarations, comments
          and processing instructions outside of the root element.
          Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * LP#1421512: The ``docinfo`` of a tree was made editable to allow
          setting and removing the public ID and system ID of the DOCTYPE.
          Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * LP#1442427: More work-arounds for quirks and bugs in pypy and pypy3.
        
        * ``lxml.html.soupparser`` now uses BeautifulSoup version 4 instead
          of version 3 if available.
        
        Bugs fixed
        ----------
        
        * Memory errors that occur during tree adaptations (e.g. moving subtrees
          to foreign documents) could leave the tree in a crash prone state.
        
        * Calling ``process_children()`` in an XSLT extension element without
          an ``output_parent`` argument failed with a ``TypeError``.
          Fix by Jens Tröger.
        
        * GH#162: Image data in HTML ``data`` URLs is considered safe and
          no longer removed by ``lxml.html.clean`` JavaScript cleaner.
        
        * GH#166: Static build could link libraries in wrong order.
        
        * GH#172: Rely a bit more on libxml2 for encoding detection rather than
          rolling our own in some cases.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * GH#159: Validity checks for names and string content were tightened
          to detect the use of illegal characters early.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * LP#1421921: Comments/PIs before the DOCTYPE declaration were not
          serialised.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * LP#659367: Some HTML DOCTYPE declarations were not serialised.
          Patch by Olli Pottonen.
        
        * LP#1238503: lxml.doctestcompare is now consistent with stdlib's doctest
          in how it uses ``+`` and ``-`` to refer to unexpected and missing output.
        
        * Empty prefixes are explicitly rejected when a namespace mapping is used
          with ElementPath to avoid hiding bugs in user code.
        
        * Several problems with PyPy were fixed by switching to Cython 0.23.
