5 | - Fixed a problem in which abs_path($arg) on some platforms could |
6 | only be called on directories, and died when called on files. This |
7 | was a problem in the pure-perl implementation _perl_abs_path(). |
8 | |
9 | - Fixed fast_abs_path($arg) in the same way as abs_path($arg) above. |
10 | |
11 | - On Win32, a function getdcwd($vol) has been added, which gets the |
12 | current working directory of the specified drive/volume. |
13 | [Steve Hay] |
14 | |
15 | - Fixed a problem on perl 5.6.2 when built with the MULTIPLICITY |
16 | compile-time flags. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] |
17 | |
18 | - When looking for a `pwd` system command, we no longer assume the |
19 | path separator is ':'. |
20 | |
21 | - On platforms where cwd() is implemented internally (like Win32), |
22 | don't look for a `pwd` command externally. This can greatly speed |
23 | up load time. [Stefan Scherer] |
24 | |
25 | - The pure-perl version of abs_path() now has the same prototype as |
26 | the XS version (;$). |

29 | |
30 | - The change in 2.16 created a testing failure when tested from |
31 | within a path that contains symlinks (for instance, /tmp -> |
32 | /private/tmp). |

35 | |
36 | - For VMS compatibility (and to conform to Cwd's documented |
37 | interface), in the regression tests we now compare output results |
38 | to an absolute path. [Craig A. Berry] |

41 | |
42 | - Fixed a problem on static perl builds - while creating |
43 | Makefile.aperl, it was loading a mismatched version of Cwd from |
44 | blib/ . [Reported by Blair Zajac] |

46 | 2.14 Thu Jan 8 18:51:08 CST 2004 |
47 | |
48 | - We now use File::Spec->canonpath() and properly-escaped regular |
49 | expressions when comparing paths in the regression tests. This |
50 | fixes some testing failures in 2.13 on non-Unix platforms. No |
51 | changes were made in the actual Cwd module code. [Steve Hay] |

54 | |
55 | - Changed a '//' comment to a '/* */' comment in the XS code, so that |
56 | it'll compile properly under ANSI C rules. [Jarkko Hietaniemi] |
57 | |
58 | - Fixed a 1-character buffer overrun problem in the C code. [The BSD |
59 | people] |

61 | 2.12 Fri Dec 19 17:04:52 CST 2003 |
62 | |
63 | - Fixed a bug on Cygwin - the output of realpath() should have been |
64 | tainted, but wasn't. [Reported by Tom Wyant] |
65 | |
66 | 2.10 Mon Dec 15 07:50:12 CST 2003 |
67 | |
68 | (Note that this release was mistakenly packaged as version 2.11, even |
69 | though it had an internal $VERSION variable of 2.10. Not sure how |
70 | THAT happened...) |
71 | |
72 | - There was a dependency in the Makefile.PL on Module::Build, which |
73 | isn't necessary. I've removed it. |
74 | |
75 | 2.09 Thu Dec 11 20:30:58 CST 2003 |
76 | |
77 | - The module should now build & install using version 5.6 of perl. |
78 | |
79 | - We now note a build-time dependency on version 0.19 of |
80 | Module::Build, which is necessary because we don't use the standard |
81 | lib/-based file layout. No version of Module::Build is required if |
82 | you use the Makefile.PL, just if you use the Build.PL . |
83 | |
84 | - Removed some gratuitous uses of 5.6-isms like our(), with the aim |
85 | of backporting this module to perl 5.005. |
86 | |
87 | - Simplified all code that autoloads Carp.pm and calls |
88 | carp()/croak(). |
89 | |
90 | - Removed some redundant OS/2 code at the suggestion of Michael |
91 | Schwern and Ilya Zakharevich. |
92 | |
93 | - Make sure the correct version of Cwd.pm is loaded in the regression |
94 | tests. [Sam Vilain] |
95 | |
96 | 2.08 Wed Oct 15 20:56 CDT 2003 |
97 | |
98 | - Code extracted from perl 5.8.1 and packaged as a separate CPAN |
99 | release by Ken Williams. |
