4.0.0

• removed the SerializerAwareEncoder and SerializerAwareNormalizer classes, use the SerializerAwareTrait instead
• removed the Serializer::$normalizerCache and Serializer::$denormalizerCache properties

3.3.0

• added SerializerPass

3.1.0

• added support for serializing objects that implement JsonSerializable
• added the DenormalizerAwareTrait and NormalizerAwareTrait traits to support normalizer/denormalizer awareness
• added the DenormalizerAwareInterface and NormalizerAwareInterface interfaces to support normalizer/denormalizer awareness
• added a PSR-6 compatible adapter for caching metadata
• added a MaxDepth option to limit the depth of the object graph when serializing objects
• added support for serializing SplFileInfo objects
• added support for serializing objects that implement DateTimeInterface
• added AbstractObjectNormalizer as a base class for normalizers that deal with objects
• added support to relation deserialization

2.7.0

• added support for serialization and deserialization groups including annotations, XML and YAML mapping.
• added AbstractNormalizer to factorise code and ease normalizers development
• added circular references handling for PropertyNormalizer
• added support for a context key called object_to_populate in AbstractNormalizer to reuse existing objects in the deserialization process
• added NameConverterInterface and CamelCaseToSnakeCaseNameConverter
• [DEPRECATION] GetSetMethodNormalizer::setCamelizedAttributes() and PropertyNormalizer::setCamelizedAttributes() are replaced by CamelCaseToSnakeCaseNameConverter
• [DEPRECATION] the Exception interface has been renamed to ExceptionInterface
• added ObjectNormalizer leveraging the PropertyAccess component to normalize objects containing both properties and getters / setters / issers / hassers methods.

2.6.0

• added a new serializer: PropertyNormalizer. Like GetSetMethodNormalizer, this normalizer will map an object's properties to an array.
• added circular references handling for GetSetMethodNormalizer

2.5.0

• added support for is.* getters in GetSetMethodNormalizer

2.4.0

• added $context support for XMLEncoder.
• [DEPRECATION] JsonEncode and JsonDecode where modified to throw an exception if error found. No need for get*Error() functions

2.3.0

• added GetSetMethodNormalizer::setCamelizedAttributes to allow calling camel cased methods for underscored properties

2.2.0

• [BC BREAK] All Serializer, Normalizer and Encoder interfaces have been modified to include an optional $context array parameter.
• The XML Root name can now be configured with the xml_root_name parameter in the context option to the XmlEncoder.
• Options to json_encode and json_decode can be passed through the context options of JsonEncode and JsonDecode encoder/decoders.

2.1.0

• added DecoderInterface::supportsDecoding(), EncoderInterface::supportsEncoding()

• removed NormalizableInterface::denormalize(), NormalizerInterface::denormalize(), NormalizerInterface::supportsDenormalization()

• removed normalize() denormalize() encode() decode() supportsSerialization() supportsDeserialization() supportsEncoding() supportsDecoding() getEncoder() from SerializerInterface

• Serializer now implements NormalizerInterface, DenormalizerInterface, EncoderInterface, DecoderInterface in addition to SerializerInterface

• added DenormalizableInterface and DenormalizerInterface

• [BC BREAK] changed GetSetMethodNormalizer's key names from all lowercased to camelCased (e.g. mypropertyvalue to myPropertyValue)

• [BC BREAK] convert the item XML tag to an array

  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <response>
      <item><title><![CDATA[title1]]></title></item><item><title><![CDATA[title2]]></title></item>
  </response>

  Before:

   Array()
  

  After:

   Array(
       [item] => Array(
           [0] => Array(
               [title] => title1
           )
           [1] => Array(
               [title] => title2
           )
       )
   )
