208
209 o New modules
210 - IO::Dir
211 - IO::Poll
212
213 o IO::Socket
214 - Changed new to call autoflush on the new socket
215 - IO::Socket::INET->new now accepts a single argument
216 - IO::Socket::INET default to protocol 'tcp'
217
218 o IO::File
219 - Added doc for new_tmpfile
220
221 o IO::Handle
222 - Removed use of AutoLoader for constants, constants are
223 now defined as constant XS subs
224 - Added fsync, but will not be avaliable for use
225 unless HAS_FSYNC is defined, perls configure does not define
226 this yet.
227 - Moved bootstrap of IO.xs to IO.pm. IO::Handle no longer
228 contains an AUTOLOAD sub in it's ISA hier
229
230 o IO::Seekable
231 - Remove clearerr, as it is defined in IO.xs
232
233 o IO.xs
234 - Patched IO.xs with patch from Chip for setvbuf warning
235 - Added XS sub "constant" for backwards compatability
236
237 o Misc
238 - Fixed IO::Socket::configure, it was not passing $arg to domain
239 specific package
240 - Changed all $fh variables in IO::Handle to $io and all $fh
241 variables in IO::Socket to $sock as Chip suggested
242 - Fixed usage messages to be consistant
243
244*** Release 1.15
245
246Sun 19 Jan 1997 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
247
248 o Updated PODs for IO::Handle and IO::File
249 o Modified IO.xs so that DESTROY gets called on IO::File
250 objects that were created with IO::File->new_tmpfile
251 o Modified the domain2pkg code in IO::Socket so that it
252 does not use blessd refs
253 o Created a new package IO::Pipe::End so that pipe specific
254 stuff can be moved out of IO::Handle.
255 o Added Ilya's OS/2 changes to Pipe.pm and io_pipe.t
256
257 o These changes happened somtime before the release of 1.15
258 - added shutdown to IO::Socket
259 - modified connect to not use alarm
260 - modified accept and connect to use IO::Select
261
262*** Release 1.14
263
264Tue 24 Dec 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
265
266 o Updated to patches in perl core dist.

268 o Modified t/io_sock.t, hopefully the race condition has gone

270 o IO::Handle::syswrite was calling sysread, fixed :-)
271
272*** Release 1.12
273
274Thu 19 Sep 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
275
276 o Modified IO.xs so that it will compile with pre perlio version
277 of perl (ie pre perl5.003_02)
278 o Modified IO::Socket::send so not to pass 4 arguments to send
279 if the socket is connected
280
281*** Release 1.10
282
283Mon 11 Sep 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
284
285 o Fixed a bug in IO::Socket which caused DESTROY to be called
286 on a partly initialised connection
287 o Changed IO.xs to use Perlio
288 o Modified usage message to report correct package
289 o Added IO::File::new changes from Chip, to allow PERM to be passed
290 o Added sysread and syswrite methods to IO::Handle
291 o Updated documentation
292 o Fixed a bug in IO::Select that caused a hang if the last handle
293 was removed.
294 o Added count method to IO::Select
295 o Renamed and modified tests so that they can be copied into the
296 perl distribution
297 o Added fcntl and ioctl methods to IO::Handle
298
299Thu 25 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
300
301 o It is now not necessary to call the domain sub-classes of
302 IO::Socket. when connect is called it notes the domain.
303 Domain specific methods, which are normally non-critical, are
304 called via this note-ing.
305 o Added methods to IO::Socket to retrieve the domain, type and
306 protocol of a given socket
307
308Tue 23 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
309
310 o IO::Socket::connect changed how we do timeouts, as it did not work
311
312 o IO::Handle::new_from_fd removed method call to _ref_fd, which was
313 a leftover from FileHandle
314
315Fri 28 Jun 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
316
317 o Modified IO::Socket::UNIX::configure to default to using a socket
318 type of SOCK_STREAM if no type is specified.
