jsoup Changelog

1.18.1 (Pending)

Added Path accepting parse methods: Jsoup.parse(Path), Jsoup.parse(path, charsetName, baseUri, parser), etc. 2055

Attribute object accessors: Added Element.attribute(String) and Attributes.attribute(String) to more simply obtain an Attribute object. 2069
Attribute source tracking: If source tracking is on, and an Attribute's key is changed ( via Attribute.setKey(String)), the source range is now still tracked in Attribute.sourceRange(). 2070
Wildcard attribute selector: Added support for the [*] element with any attribute selector. And also restored support for selecting by an empty attribute name prefix ([^]). 2079

Mixed-cased source position: When tracking the source position of attributes, if the source attribute name was mix-cased but the parser was lower-case normalizing attribute names, the source position for that attribute was not tracked correctly. 2067
Source position NPE: When tracking the source position of a body fragment parse, a null pointer exception was thrown. 2068
Multi-point emoji entity: A multi-point encoded emoji entity may be incorrectly decoded to the replacement character. 2074
Selector sub-expressions: (Regression) in a selector like parent [attr=va], other, the , OR was binding to [attr=va] instead of parent [attr=va], causing incorrect selections. The fix includes a EvaluatorDebug class that generates a sexpr to represent the query, allowing simpler and more thorough query parse tests. 2073
XML CData output: When generating XML-syntax output from parsed HTML, script nodes containing (pseudo) CData sections would have an extraneous CData section added, causing script execution errors. Now, the data content is emitted in a HTML/XML/XHTML polyglot format, if the data is not already within a CData section. 2078
Thread safety: The :has evaluator held a non-thread-safe Iterator, and so if an Evaluator object was shared across multiple concurrent threads, a NoSuchElement exception may be thrown, and the selected results may be incorrect. Now, the iterator object is a thread-local. 2088
