# Clixon Changelog
## 3.7.0 (Upcoming)
### Major changes:
### Major New features
* Support for YANG conditionals "must" and "when" according to RFC 7950 Sec 7.5.3 and 7.21.5.
* XPATH checked at validation time
@ -10,17 +11,23 @@
* Validation of types and CLI expansion
* Example extended with inclusion of iana-if-type RFC 7224 interface identities
* Applications which have not strictly enforced the identities may now have problems with validation and may need to be modified.
* Much improved support for XPATH 1.0 according to https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-10 using yacc/lex
* NOTE: Due to an error in the previous implementation, all XPATH calls on the form `x[a=str]` where `str` is a string (not a number or XML symbol), must be changed to: `x[a='str'] or x[a="str"]`
* This includes all calls to `xpath_vec, xpath_first`, etc.
* All calls to cli_copy_config in CLI spec files must replace 2nd argument from `x[%s=%s]` to `x[%s='%s']`
* The old API can be enabled by setting COMPAT_XSL in include/clixon_custom.h and recompile.
### API changes on existing features (you may need to change your code)
* Conformance of restconf(RFC-8040) operations where prefix was used instead of module name.
* Proper specification for an operation is POST /restconf/operations/<module_name>:<rpc_procedure> HTTP/1.1
* See https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/31, https://github.com/clicon/clixon/pull/32 and https://github.com/clicon/clixon/issues/30
* Thanks David Cornejo and Dmitry Vakhrushev of Netgate for pointing this out.
### Minor changes:
* Improved support for XPATH 1.0 according to https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-10 using yacc/lex
* NOTE: Due to an error in the previous implementation, all XPATH calls on the form `x[a=str]` where `str` is a string (not a number or XML symbol), must be changed to: `x[a='str'] or x[a="str"]`
* This includes all calls to `xpath_vec, xpath_first`, etc.
* All calls to cli_copy_config in CLI spec files must replace 2nd argument from `x[%s=%s]` to `x[%s='%s']`
* xpath_each() is removed
* The old API can be enabled by setting COMPAT_XSL in include/clixon_custom.h and recompile.
### Minor changes
* Added systemd example files under example/systemd
* Changed `plugin_init()` backend return semantics: If returns NULL, _without_ calling clicon_err(), the module is disabled.
* Added util subdir, with dedicated standalone xml,json,yang and xpath parser utility test programs.
