Changes in 3.7

1. Support of X axis with custom labels like: http://jsroot.gsi.de/dev/?nobrowser&json=../files/hist_xlabels.json
2. Extend functionality of JSROOT.addDrawFunc() function. One could register type-specific make_request and after_request functions; icon, prereq, script, monitor properties. This let add more custom elements to the generic gui, implemented with JSROOT.HierarchyPainter

3. Provide full support of require.js. One could load now JSRootCore.js script like:

   <script type="text/javascript" src="require.js" data-main="scripts/JSRootCore.js"></script>

   After this several modules are defined and can be used with syntax like:

   require(['JSRootPainter'], function(jsroot) { /*any user code*/});

   Also inside JSROOT require.js used to load all dependencies.

Changes in 3.6

1. Try to provide workaround for websites where require.js already loaded. This makes problem by direct loading of jquery and jquery-ui

5. Use HiearchyPainter for implementing draw.htm. This let us handle all different kinds of extra attributes in central place
6. Fix problem in tabs layout - new tab should be add to direct child
7. When drawing several tabs, activate frame before drawing - only then real frame size will be set
8. Fix problem with GetBBox - it only can be used for visible elements in mozilla.
9. Support drawing of fit parameters in stat box, use (as far as possible) stat and fit format for statistic display
10. Implement 'g' formatting kind for stat box output - one need to checks significant digits when producing output.

6. Fix error with time axes - time offset was not correctly interpreted

Changes in 3.3

1. Use d3.time.scale for display of time scales
2. Within JSRootCore.js script URL one could specify JSROOT functionality to be loaded: '2d', '3d', 'io', 'load', 'onload'. Old method with JSROOT.AssertPrerequisites will also work.
3. With THttpServer JSROOT now provides simple control functionality. One could publish commands and execute them from the browser
4. One could open several ROOT files simultaneously
5. Add 'simple' layout - drawing uses full space on the right side
6. Allow to open ROOT files in online session (via url parameter)
7. One could monitor simultaneously objects from server and root files
8. Implement 'autocol' draw option - when superimposing histograms, their line colors will be automatically assigned
9. Implement 'nostat' draw option - disabled stat drawing
10. Using 'same' identifier in item name, one can easily draw or superimpose similar items from different files. Could be used in URL like: ...&files=[file1.root,file2.root]&items=[file1.root/hpx, file2.root/_same_] ...&files=[file1.root,file2.root]&item=file1.root/hpx+file2.root/_same_ Main limitation - file names should have similar length.
11. When 'autozoom' specified in draw options, histogram zoomed into non-empty content. Same command available via context menu.
12. Item of 'Text' kind can be created. It is displayed as plain text in the browser. If property 'mathjax' specified, MathJax.js library will be loaded and used for rendering. See httpcontrol.C macro for example.

19. Possibility to generate URL, which reproduces opened page with layout and drawn items

August 2014

1. All communication between server and browser done with JSON format.
2. Fix small error in dtree.js - one should always set last sibling (_ls) property while tree can be dynamically changed.
3. In JSRootCore.js provide central function, which handles different kinds of XMLHttpRequest. Use only async requests, also when getting file header.
4. Fully reorganize data management in file/tree/directory/collection hierarchical display. Now complete description collected in HPainter class and decoupled from visualization, performed with dTree.js.
5. Remove all global variables from the code.
6. Automatic scripts/style loading handled via JSROOT.loadScript() function. One can specify arbitrary scripts list, which asynchronously loaded by browser.
7. Method to build simple GUI changed and more simplified :). The example in index.htm. While loadScript and AssertPrerequisites functions moved to JSROOT, one can easily build many different kinds of GUIs, reusing provided JSRootCore.js functions.
8. In example.htm also use AssertPrerequisites to load necessary scripts. This helps to keep code up-to-date even by big changes in JavaScript code.
9. Provide monitoring of online THttpServer with similar interface as for ROOT files.
10. Fix several errors in TKey Streamer, use member names as in ROOT itself.
11. Keep the only version identifier JSROOT.version for JS code
12. One can specify in JSROOT.AssertPrerequisites functionality which is required. One could specify '2d', 'io' (default) or '3d'.
13. Use new AssertPrerequisites functionality to load only required functionality.
14. When displaying single element, one could specify draw options and monitor property like: http://localhost:8080/Files/job1.root/hpxpy/draw.htm?opt=col&monitor=2000 Such link is best possibility to integrate display into different HTML pages, using <iframe/> tag like: <iframe src="http://localhost:8080/Files/job1.root/hpx/draw.htm" style="width: 800px; height:600px"></iframe>
15. Remove 'JSROOTIO.' prefix from _typename. Now real class name is used.
16. Use in all scripts JSROOT as central 'namespace'
17. Introduce context menu in 3D, use it for switch between 2D/3D modes
18. Use own code to generate hierarchical structure in HTML, replace dtree.js which is extremely slow for complex hierarchies. Dramatically improve performance for structures with large (~1000) number of items.
19. Deliver to the server title of the objects, display it as hint in the browser.
20. Better handling of special characters in the hierarchies - allows to display symbols like ' or " in the file structure.

July 2014

1. Migration to d3.v3.js and jQuery v2.1.1
2. Fix errors in filling of histogram statbox
3. Possibility of move and resize of statbox, title, color palete

5. Example with direct usage of JSRootIO graphics
6. Example of inserting ROOT graphics from THttpServer into <iframe></iframe>

May 2014

1. This JSRootIO code together with THttpServer class included in ROOT repository

March 2014

1. Introduce TBuffer class, which plays similar role as TBuffer in native ROOT I/O. Simplifies I/O logic, reduce duplication of code in many places, fix errors. Main advantage - one could try to keep code synchronous with C++.
2. Avoid objects cloning when object referenced several times.
3. Treat special cases (collection, arrays) in one place. This is major advantage, while any new classes need to be implemented only once.
4. Object representation, produced by JSRootIO is similar to objects, produced by TBufferJSON class. By this one can exchange I/O engine and use same JavaSctript graphic for display.
5. More clear functions to display different elements of the file. In the future functions should be fully separated from I/O part and organized in similar way as online part.
6. Eliminate usage of gFile pointer in the I/O part.
7. Provide TBufferJSON::JsonWriteMember method. It allows to stream any selected data member of the class. Supported are: basic data types, arrays of basic data types, TString, TArray classes. Also any object as data member can be streamed.
8. TRootSniffer do not creates sublevels for base classes
