6 | * IO::Unompress::Bunzip2 |
7 | - The interface to Compress-Raw-Bzip2 now uses the new LimitOutput |
8 | feature. This will make all of the bzip2-related IO-Compress modules |
9 | less greedy in their memory consumption. |
10 | |
11 | * IO::Compress::Zip |
12 | - Fixed exTime & exUnix2 |
13 | |
14 | - Fixed 'Use of uninitialized value in pack' warning when using |
15 | ZIP_CM_STORE. |

22 | * The interface to Compress-Raw-Zlib now uses the new LimitOutput |
23 | feature. This will make all of the zlib-related IO-Compress modules |
24 | less greedy in their memory consumption. |
25 | |
26 | * Removed MAN3PODS from Makefile.PL |
27 | |
28 | * A few changes to get the test harness to work on VMS courtesy of |
29 | Craig. A. Berry. |
30 | |
319fab50 |
31 | * IO::Compress::Base & IO::Uncompress::Base |
32 | Downgraded some croaks in the constructors to just set $! (by letting |
33 | the code attempt to open a file and fail). |
34 | This makes the behavior more consistent to a standard open. |
35 | [RT #42657] |
36 | |
37 | * IO::Uncompress::Base |
38 | Doing a seek with MultiStream could drop some of the uncompressed |
39 | data. Fixed. |
40 | |
41 | * IO::Compress::Zip |
42 | - Fixed problem with the uncompressed & uncompressed fields when |
43 | zip64 is enabled. They were set to 0x0000FFFF instead of |
44 | 0xFFFFFFFF. Also the ZIP64 extra field was 4 bytes short. |
45 | Problem spotted by Dino Chiesa. |
46 | |
dc82791d |
47 | * IO::Uncompress::Unzip |
48 | - use POSIX::mktime instead of Time::Local::timelocal to convert |
49 | the zip DOS time field into Unix time. |
50 | |
319fab50 |
51 | * Compress::Zlib |
52 | - Documented Compress::Zlib::zlib_version() |
53 | |
54 | |
55 | 2.015 3 September 2008 |
56 | |
57 | * Makefile.PL |
58 | Backout changes made in 2.014 |
59 | |
60 | 2.014 2 September 2008 |
61 | |
62 | * Makefile.PL |
63 | Updated to check for indirect dependencies. |
64 | |
65 | 2.013 18 July 2008 |
66 | |
67 | * IO::Compress::Base |
68 | - Allow IO::Compress::Base::Parameters::parse to accept an |
69 | IO::Compress::Base::Parameters object. |
70 | |
71 | 2.012 15 July 2008 |
72 | |
73 | * IO::Compress::Base |
74 | - Silenced an uninitialised value warning when reading a line |
75 | at a time from a zip file where the content uses ZIP_CM_STORE. |
76 | [Problem spotted & fixed by Jeff Holt] |
77 | |
78 | * IO::Compress::Base & IO::Uncompress::Base |
79 | - local-ise $!, $? et al in the DESTROY methods. |
80 | |
81 | 2.011 17 May 2008 |
82 | |
83 | * IO::Compress::Base |
84 | - Fixed problem that prevented the creation of a zip file that |
85 | contained more than one compression method. |
86 | |
87 | * IO::Compress::Base::Common |
88 | - The private Validator class in this module clashes with another |
89 | CPAN module. Moved Validator into the IO::Compress::Base::Common |
90 | namespace. |
91 | [RT #35954] |
92 | |
93 | * IO::Uncompress::Unzip |
94 | - Print an error message if the zip file contains a |
95 | member compressed with bzip2 and IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2 is |
96 | not available. |
97 | - Could not cope with mixed compression zip files. For example a |
98 | zip file that contains both STORED and DEFLATED content. |
99 | [RT #35573] |
100 | |
101 | 2.010 5 May 2008 |
102 | |
103 | * Fixed problem that meant Perl 5.10 could not upgrade this module. |
104 | [RT #35342 & 35341] |
105 | |
106 | 2.009 20 April 2008 |
107 | |
108 | * Removed the alpha status from File::GlobMapper |
109 | |
110 | * IO::Compress::Base |
111 | When writing output never output a zero length buffer. |
112 | Done to improve interoperability with other tied filenandle |
113 | modules. |
114 | |
115 | * Changed IO::Uncompress::Base to not use the offset parameter of |
116 | the read method when reading from a filehandle. |
117 | |
118 | The object returned from Net::FTP::retr implements a non-standard |
119 | read method. The third parameter is used for a timeout value |
120 | rather than an offset. |
121 | [rt.cpan#33231] |
122 | |
123 | * Changed IO::Uncompress::Base to not use the eof method when |
124 | reading from a filehandle. |
125 | |
126 | The object returned from Net::FTP::retr implements both the read |
127 | method and the eof method. Unfortunately the implementation of |
128 | the read method uses non-buffered IO (by using sysread) while |
129 | the eof method uses buffered IO. Mixing buffered and non-buffered |
130 | IO results in data corruption. |
131 | |
132 | * IO::Compress::Zip |
133 | |
134 | - Added exUnix2 option to allow storing of UID & GID. |
135 | - When running on a Unix derivative the ExtAttr option now defaults |
136 | to the equivalent of 0666. For all other systems the default |
137 | remains 0. |
138 | |
139 | * Compress::Zlib |
140 | - Minor documentation issue with flush. |
141 | [rt.cpan.org #31446] |
142 | |
143 | |
144 | 2.008 2 November 2007 |
145 | |
146 | * Minor documentation changes in README |
147 | |
148 | * t/compress/truncate.pl |
149 | EBCDIC Cleanup. |
150 | |
151 | * IO::Compress::Gzip::Constants.pm |
152 | Tidied up the character classes used to defined invalid |
153 | FNAME & FCOMMENT fields for EBCDIC. |
154 | |
155 | * Compress::Zlib |
156 | lib/Compress/Zlib.pm -- 1.x Backward Compatability issues |
157 | gzclose - documented return value was wrong, should be 0 for ok. |
158 | gzflush - return value didn't match 1.x, should return 0 if ok. |
159 | [rt.cpan.org #29215] and Debian bug #440943 http://bugs.debian.org/440943 |
160 | |
161 | 2.006 1 September 20007 |
162 | |
163 | * Makefile.PL |
164 | Added INSTALLDIRS directive to install as a core module when built |
165 | on a perl >= 5.9. |
166 | |
167 | * IO::Uncompress::RawDeflate |
168 | |
169 | - Fixed export problem - "$RawDeflateError" and "rawdeflate" were |
170 | not being exported with ":all". |
171 | |
172 | * Compress::Zlib |
173 | - t/03zlib-v1.t |
174 | Fixed crc32 and adler32 tests in to remove ascii assumption. |
175 | |
176 | - lib/Compress/Zlib.pm |
177 | Make gzreadline not support $/, just like in Compress::Zlib 1.x |
178 | Folk who want $/ with readline support can get it in |
179 | IO::Uncompress::Gunzip. [rt.cpan.org #28663] and |
180 | Debian bug #435656 http://bugs.debian.org/435656 |
181 | |
182 | |
183 | 2.005 18 June 2007 |
184 | |
185 | * Stephen Turner reported a problem when using IO::Uncompress::Gunzip |
186 | with XML::Parser. Turns out there were two issues. |
187 | |
188 | Firstly an IO::Uncompress object isn't an IO::Handle. It is now. |
189 | |
190 | Secondly the implementation of "read" wasn't honouring this |
191 | |
192 | SCALAR will be grown or shrunk to the length actually read. |
193 | |
194 | In particular it didn't do the right thing on EOF. |
195 | This has been fixed. |
196 | |
197 | * IO::Compress::Gzip & IO::Uncompress::Gunzip |
198 | |
199 | - RFC1952 says that the FNAME & FCOMMENT header fields must be ISO |
200 | 8859-1 (LATIN-1) characters. The code can optionally police this. |
201 | Added a fix for this logic when running on EBCDIC. |
202 | |
203 | * Compress::Zlib |
204 | Added info about removing Compress::Zlib version 1, before |
205 | installing version 2. |
206 | |
207 | 2.004 3 March 2007 |
208 | |
209 | * Made seek less wasteful of memory. |
210 | |
211 | * IO::Compress::Zip |
212 | |
213 | - Added Zip64 documentation. |
214 | |
215 | - Fixed extended timestamp. |
216 | Creation time isn't available in Unix so only store the |
217 | modification time and the last access time in the extended field. |
218 | |
219 | - Fixed file mode. |
220 | |
221 | - Added ExtAttr option to control the value of the "external file |
222 | attributes" field in the central directory. |
223 | |
224 | - Added Unix2 extended attribute ("Ux"). |
225 | This stores the UID & GID. |
226 | |
227 | * IO::Compress::Gzip |
228 | |
229 | - Fixed 050interop-gzip.t for Windows |
230 | |
231 | * IO::Compress::Bzip2 |
232 | |
233 | - Fixed 050interop-bzip2.t for Windows |
234 | |
235 | * Compress::Zlib |
236 | |
237 | - rewrote memGzip using IO::Compress::Gzip::gzip |
238 | |
239 | 2.003 2 January 2007 |
240 | |
241 | * Added explicit version checking |
242 | |
243 | 2.002 29 December 2006 |
244 | |
245 | * Documentation updates. |
246 | |
247 | * Added IO::Handle to the ISA test in isaFilehandle |
248 | |
249 | * Add an explicit use_ok test for Scalar::Util in the test harness. |
250 | The error message reported by 01misc implied the problem was |
251 | somewhere else. |
252 | Also explictly check that 'dualvar' is available. |
253 | |
254 | * Compress::Zlib |
255 | - Fix append mode with gzopen. |
256 | rt-cpan.org 24041 |
257 | |
258 | - Allow gzopen to read from and write to a scalar reference. |
259 | |
260 | 2.001 1 November 2006 |
261 | |
262 | * Remove beta status. |
263 | |
264 | 2.000_14 26 October 2006 |
265 | |
266 | * IO::Uncompress::Base |
267 | Added support for $/ in record mode |
268 | |
269 | * IO::Uncompress::Base |
270 | The readline interface was substantially slower than the 1.x |
271 | equivalent. This has now been sorted. |
272 | Thanks to Andreas J. Koenig for spotting the problem. |
273 | |
274 | * IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress |
275 | Added IO::Uncompress::Lzf to the list of supported uncompresors. |
276 | |
277 | * IO::Uncompress::Base |
278 | Added TrailingData to one-shot interface. |
279 | |
280 | * IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress |
281 | Remove raw-deflate (RFC1951) from the default list of compressors |
282 | to check. |
283 | It can still be included if the new RawInflate parameter is |
284 | supplied. |
285 | This change was made because the only way to tell if content is |
286 | raw-deflate is to attempt to uncompress it - a few false positives |
287 | have popped up recently, which suggests that auto-detecting raw |
288 | deflate is far from perfect. |
289 | The equivalent change has been made to IO::Uncompress::AnyInflate. |
290 | [Core patch #28445] |
291 | |
292 | * Don't check that filehandles are writable. It would seem that |
293 | "-w *STDOUT" on windows returns false. |
294 | [Core Patch #28415] |
295 | |
296 | * IO::Uncompress::Deflate |
297 | Beefed up the magic signature check. Means less false positives |
298 | when auto-detecting the compression type. |
299 | |
300 | * IO::Uncompress::UnZip |
301 | Tighten up the zip64 extra field processing to cope with the case |
302 | wheere only some of the local header fields are superceeded. |
303 | |
304 | * IO::Uncompress::AnyInflate |
305 | Remove raw-deflate (RFC 1951) from the default list of compressors |
306 | to check. |
307 | It can still be included if the new RawInflate parameter is |
308 | supplied. |
309 | This change was made because the only way to tell if content is |
310 | raw-deflate is to attempt to uncompress it - a few false positives |
311 | have popped up recently, which suggests that auto-detecting raw |
312 | deflate is far from perfect. |
313 | The equivalent change has been made to IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress. |
314 | [Core patch #28445] |
315 | |
316 | 2.000_13 20 June 2006 |
317 | |
318 | * Store compress & uncompressed sizes as 64-bit. |
319 | |
320 | * For one-shot uncompression, like this |
321 | |
322 | unzip "some.zip" => \@a, MultiStream => 1; |
323 | |
324 | Push each uncompressed stream from "some.zip" onto @a. |
325 | |
326 | * Added IO::Compress::Base::FilterEnvelope |
327 | |
328 | * Added IO::Uncompress::Base::nextStream |
329 | |
330 | * The '-' filehandle now maps to either *STDIN or *STDOUT. |
331 | This keeps mod_perl happier. Was using these before |
332 | |
333 | new IO::File("<-") |
334 | new IO::File(">-") |
335 | |
336 | * Preliminary support for reading zip files with zip64 members. |
337 | |
338 | 2.000_12 3 May 2006 |
339 | |
340 | * Moved the code for creating and parsing the gzip extra field into |
341 | IO::Compress::Zlib::Extra.pm so that IO::Compress::Zip & |
342 | IO::Uncompress::Unzip can use it as well. |
343 | |
344 | * Added ExtraFieldLocal & ExtraFieldCentral options to IO::Compress::Zip. |
345 | These allow the creation of user-defined extra fields in the local |
346 | and central headers, just like the ExtraField option in |
347 | IO::Compress::Gzip. |
348 | |
349 | * Moved the zip constants into IO::Compress::Zip::Constants |
350 | |
351 | * Added exTime option to IO::Compress::Zip. |
352 | This allows creation of the extended timestamp extra field. |
353 | |
354 | * Added Minimal option to IO::Compress::Zip. |
355 | This disables the creation of all extended fields. |
356 | |
357 | * Added TextFlag option to IO::Compress::Zip. |
358 | |
359 | * Documented Comment and ZipComment options in IO::Compress::Zip. |
360 | |
361 | * Compress::Zlib |
362 | Fixed gzread to zap the output buffer to an empty string when zero |
363 | bytes are requested. This matches the behaviour of C::Z 1.x |
364 | |
365 | 2.000_11 10 April 2006 |
366 | |
367 | * Transparent + InputLength made more robust where input data is not |
368 | compressed. |
369 | |
370 | * Updated Documentation for zip modules. |
371 | |
372 | * Changed IO::Compress::Zip 'Store' option to 'Method' and added |
373 | symbolic constants ZIP_CM_STORE, ZIP_CM_DEFLATE and ZIP_CM_BZIP2 to |
374 | allow the compression method to be picked by the user. |
375 | |
376 | * Added support to allow bzip2 compressed data to be written/read |
377 | with IO::Compress::Zip and IO::Uncompress::Unzip. |
378 | |
379 | * Beefed up 050interop-gzip.t to check that the external gzip command |
380 | works as expected before starting the tests. This means that |
381 | this test harness will just be skipped on problematic systems. |
382 | |
383 | * Merged core patch 27565 from Steve Peters. This works around a |
384 | problem with gzip on OpenBSD where it doesn't seem to like |
385 | compressing files < 10 bytes long. |
386 | |
387 | * Beefed up 050interop-bzip2.t to check that the external bzip2 command |
388 | works as expected before starting the tests. This means that |
389 | this test harness will just be skipped on problematic systems. |
390 | |
391 | 2.000_10 13 March 2006 |
392 | |
393 | * AnyUncompress doesn't assume that IO-Compress-Zlib is installed any |
394 | more. |
395 | |
396 | * Documentation updates. |
397 | |
398 | * Compress::Zlib |
399 | Changed gzread so that its behaviour matches C::Z::gzread 1.x if it |
400 | is called after eof. In this case it will write an empty string |
401 | into the output parameter. This change is solely for backward |
402 | compatability reasons. |
403 | |
404 | 2.000_09 3 March 2006 |
405 | |
406 | * Released to CPAN. |
407 | |
408 | 2.000_08 2 March 2006 |
409 | |
410 | * Split IO::Compress::Base into its own distribution. |
411 | |
412 | * Split IO::Compress::Bzip2 into its own distribution. |
413 | |
414 | * Added opened, autoflush and input_line_number. |
415 | |
416 | * Beefed up support for $. |
417 | |
418 | * Split IO::Compress::Zlib into its own distribution. |
419 | |
420 | * Beefed up support for zip/unzip |
421 | |
422 | * Breakout zlib specific code into separate modules. |
423 | |
424 | * Limited support for reading/writing zip files |
425 | |
426 | 2.000_06 5 October 2005 |
427 | |
428 | * Added eof parameter to Compress::Zlib::inflate method. |
429 | |
430 | * Fixed issue with 64-bit |
431 | |
432 | 2.000_05 4 October 2005 |
433 | |
434 | * Renamed IO::* to IO::Compress::* & IO::Uncompress::* |
435 | |
436 | 2.000_04 23 September 2005 |
437 | |
438 | * Fixed some more non-portable test that were failing on VMS. |
439 | |
440 | * fixed problem where error messages in the oneshot interface were |
441 | getting lost. |
442 | |
443 | 2.000_03 12 September 2005 |
444 | |
445 | * Fixed some non-portable test that were failing on VMS. |

450 | |
451 | * Split Append mode into Append and Merge |
452 | |

462 | |
463 | * Fixed VERSION in Compress::Gzip::Constants |
464 | |
465 | * Removed Compress::Gzip::Info from the distribution. |
466 | |
467 | 2.000_00 21 August 2005 |

526 | This both simplifies the build, plus it makes life easier for VMS. |
527 | |
528 | * Patches for Makefile.PL to get it to work on VMS supplied by |
529 | Craig A. Berry. |
530 | |
531 | * memGunzip has very slow on FreeBSD. Turns out to be down to |
532 | the way realloc works on FreeBSD. Changed both inflate & deflate |
533 | to use exponentially increasing buffer sizes when they need to |
534 | realloc. Thanks to Peter Jeremy for the lowdown on FreeBSD |
535 | memory allocation. |
536 | |
537 | 1.32 - 26 November 2003 |
538 | |
539 | * Steve Hay reported a problem on rt.cpan.org with Windows and |
540 | MSCV++ 6.0 where the source from the zlib directory was getting |
541 | installed with the rest of the module. |
542 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=1741 |
543 | |
544 | This has been fixed by renaming the "zlib" directory to "zlib-src" |
545 | thus avoiding a conflict with the name of this Perl module. |
546 | |
547 | * Fixed a bug in the inflate method where the input buffer is an |
548 | lvalue (via substr). Problem & solution reported by Salvador Fandiqo. |
549 | |
550 | * Tightened up the logic in Makefile.PL when BUILD_ZLIB is |
551 | True. Issue spotted by Ralf S. Engelschall. |
552 | |
553 | 1.31 - 29 October 2003 |
554 | |
555 | * Reinstated the creation of .bak files - $^I seems to need a |
556 | backup file on Windows. For OpenVMS, the extenstion _bak is used. |
557 | |
558 | 1.30 - 28 October 2003 |
559 | |
560 | * Bundled a sub-set of the zlib source with the module and changed |
561 | the default make behaviour to build with the included zlib source. |
562 | The previous behaviour of using a pre-built zlib library is |
563 | still available for those that want it. |
564 | |
565 | * Added prototypes to the subs in Zlib.pm that didn't already have |
566 | them. Patch from Ed Avis. |
567 | |
568 | * No .bak files are created by Makefile.PL any more - this keep |
569 | distclean much happier. Patch suggested by Ed Avis. |
570 | This also fixes a similar problem reported by Dr. Martin Zinser |
571 | on OpenVMS. |
572 | |
573 | * Documentation for some of the gz functions updated. |
574 | |
575 | * Format strings modified in DispStream to keep OpenVMS happy. |
576 | Problem reported by Dr. Martin Zinser. |
577 | |
578 | |
579 | 1.22 - 17 June 2003 |
580 | |
581 | * Makefile.PL now displays a warning about not installing |
582 | Compress::Zlib via the CPAN shell. |
583 | |
584 | * Fix to allow intermingling of gzread & gzreadline - patch |
585 | supplied by Doug Perham. |
586 | |
587 | * memGunzip will silently now work if the gzip trailer is |
588 | missing. Some HTTP Origin Servers seem to leave it out. |
589 | |
590 | 1.21 - 28 April 2003 |
591 | |
592 | * Tests 148 & 150 from t/02zlib.t were failing on redhat 9. |
593 | |
594 | * Added a few words about the problems with Mac OS X to the README file. |
595 | |
596 | 1.20 - 4 April 2003 |
597 | |
598 | * Fixed bug in gzopen where $gzerrno wasn't being set correctly. |
599 | The symptom was $gzerrno was set to Z_MEM_ERROR although the file |
600 | was opened ok. If gzopen failed, $gzerrno was being set correctly. |
601 | This problem wasn't spotted before because the typical test |
602 | to determine whether gzopen passed or failed was to check its |
603 | return value. |
604 | |
605 | 1.19 - 31 October 2002 |
606 | |
607 | * fixed a problem with t/02zlib.t that was failing with redhat 8. |
608 | |
609 | 1.18 - 24 October 2002 |
610 | |
611 | * fixed a Win32 problem in t/02zlib.t by changing sysread to read. |
612 | |
613 | * zlib 1.0.5 & older doesn't have gzsetparams & gzeof. Added a new |
614 | variable to config.in to flag an old version of zlib. Split |
615 | out the tests for gzsetparams into t/05gzsetp.t |
616 | |
617 | 1.17 - 23 May 2002 |
618 | |
619 | * Moved the test to check the versions of libz & zlib.h into a separate |
620 | file and added troubleshooting notes to README. |
621 | |
622 | * In gzopen, only attempt to call "tell" for normal files. |
623 | |
624 | * Fixed to work in taint mode. |
625 | |
626 | * Broke changes out of README into Changes file. |
627 | |
628 | * Replaced internal use of Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH symbol with Z_SYNC_FLUSH. |
629 | zlib.h says /* will be removed, use Z_SYNC_FLUSH instead */ |
630 | |
631 | 1.16 - 13 December 2001 |
632 | |
633 | * Fixed bug in Makefile.PL that stopped "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=..." |
634 | working. |
635 | |
636 | 1.15 - 4th December 2001 |
637 | |
638 | * Changes a few types to get the module to build on 64-bit Solaris |
639 | |
640 | * Changed the up/downgrade logic to default to the older constructs, and |
641 | to only call a downgrade if specifically requested. Some older versions |
642 | of Perl were having problems with the in-place edit. |
643 | |
644 | * added the new XS constant code. |
645 | |
646 | 1.14 - 27th August 2001 |
647 | |
648 | * Memory overwrite bug fixed in "inflate". Kudos to Rob Simons for |
649 | reporting the bug and to Anton Berezin for fixing it for me. |
650 | |
651 | 1.13 - 31st June 2001 |
652 | |
653 | * Make sure config.in is consistant when released. |
654 | |
655 | 1.12 - 28th April 2001 |
656 | |
657 | * Modified Makefile.PL to only enable the warnings pragma if |
658 | using perl 5.6.1 or better. |
659 | |
660 | 1.11 - 17th February 2001 |
661 | |
662 | * Added logic in Makefile.PL to toggle between using $^W and |
663 | the warnings pragma in the module. |
664 | |
665 | * The module, the examples & the test harness are now all strict |
666 | & warnings clean. |
667 | |
668 | 1.10 - 5th February 2001 |
669 | |
670 | * fixed a bug in memGunzip. Used Z_ERR instead of Z_DATA_ERROR. |
671 | |
672 | 1.09 - 15th January 2001 |
673 | |
674 | * Silenced a few compiler warnings. |
675 | |
676 | * Updated zlib home site in README & Zlib.pm to www.info-zip.org |
677 | |
678 | * Minor typo in Zlib.pm - a link used AUTHORS instead of AUTHOR |
679 | -- spotted by Frank Martini. |
680 | |
681 | * Mention Archive::Zip |
682 | |
683 | * added memGunzip. This is largely based on code provided by Jim Leonard. |
684 | |
685 | * $deflate->flush can now take an optional parameter. Valid |
686 | values are Z_NO_FLUSH, Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH, Z_SYNC_FLUSH, Z_FULL_FLUSH |
687 | and Z_FINISH. The default is Z_FINISH. |
688 | |
689 | 1.08 - 6 Jan 2000 |
690 | |
691 | * uncompress was clobbering its input parameter. Now it doesn't. |
692 | This bug was spotted by Deven T. Corzine. |
693 | |
694 | * If a variable that only ever contained a number was given |
695 | to compress or deflate, it would not be compressed properly. Now |
696 | it will be coerced to a string and then compressed. This bug |
697 | was spotted by Deven T. Corzine. |
698 | |
699 | 1.07 - 27 Nov 1999 |
700 | |
701 | * ANSI-ified the static functions in Zlib.xs |
702 | |
703 | * Added the ability to build zlib along with the module. |
704 | This feature is 90% based on a Makefile provided by Gurusamy |
705 | Sarathy. |
706 | |
707 | 1.06 - 20 Sep 1999 |
708 | |
709 | * Fixed a nasty problem where inflate could truncate the data |
710 | returned. Thanks to Douglas Thomson <dougt@mugc.cc.monash.edu.au> |
711 | for both spotting the problem and fixing the bug. |
712 | |
713 | * Added a note about the undocumented features in zlib that are |
714 | required when accessing zip files. |
715 | |
716 | * gzclose will now get called automatically when the gzip object is |
717 | destroyed. |
718 | |
719 | 1.05 - 3 June 1999 |
720 | |
721 | * Previous release used newSVpvn, which doesn't exist in 5.004_04 |
722 | or earlier. Changed to use newSVpv instead. |
723 | |
724 | * The module needs Perl 5.004 or better, so updated the version |
725 | checking in Zlib.pm and Makefile.PL |
726 | |
727 | 1.04 - 27 May 1999 |
728 | |
729 | * Bug 19990527.001: compress(undef) core dumps -- Fixed. |
730 | |
731 | 1.03 - 17 Mar 1999 |
732 | |
733 | * Updated to use the new PL_ symbols. |
734 | Means the module can be built with Perl 5.005_5* |
735 | |
736 | 1.02 - 31 Jan 1999 |
737 | |
738 | * The return codes for gzread, gzreadline and gzwrite were |
739 | documented incorrectly as returning a status code. |
740 | |
741 | * The test harness was missing a "gzclose". This caused problem |
742 | showed up on an amiga. Thanks to Erik van Roode for reporting |
743 | this one. |
744 | |
745 | * Patched zlib.t for OS/2. Thanks to Ilya Zakharevich for the patch. |
746 | |
747 | 1.01 - 23 Nov 1997 |
748 | |
749 | * A number of fixes to the test suite and the example scripts to |
750 | allow them to work under win32. All courtesy of Gurusamy |
751 | Sarathy. |
752 | |
753 | 1.00 - 14 Nov 1997 |
754 | |
755 | * Fixed crc32 & adler32. They were very broken. |
756 | |
757 | * The following functions can now take a scalar reference in |
758 | place of a scalar for their buffer parameters: |
759 | |
760 | compress |
761 | uncompress |
762 | deflate |
763 | inflate |
764 | crc32 |
765 | adler32 |
766 | |
767 | This should mean applications that make use of the module don't |
768 | have to copy large buffers around. |
769 | |
770 | |
771 | * Normally the inflate method consumes I<all> of the input buffer |
772 | before returning. The exception to this is when inflate detects |
773 | the end of the stream (Z_STREAM_END). In this case the input |
774 | buffer need not be completely consumed. To allow processing of |
775 | file formats that embed a deflation stream (e.g. zip, gzip), |
776 | the inflate method now sets the buffer parameter to be what |
777 | remains after inflation. |
778 | |
779 | When the return status is Z_STREAM_END, it will be what remains |
780 | of the buffer (if any) after deflation. When the status is Z_OK |
781 | it will be an empty string. |
782 | |
783 | This change means that the buffer parameter must be a lvalue. |
784 | |
785 | * Fixed crc32 and adler32. They were both very broken. |
786 | |
787 | * Added the Compress::Zlib::memGzip function. |
788 | |
789 | 0.5 - Confirmed that no changes were necessary for zlib 1.0.3, or 1.0.4. |
790 | |
791 | The optional parameters for deflateInit and inflateInit can now |
792 | be specified as an associative array in addition to a reference |
793 | to an associative array. They can also accept the -Name |
794 | syntax. |
795 | |
796 | gzopen can now optionally take a reference to an open |
797 | filehandle in place of a filename. In this case it will call |
798 | gzdopen. |
799 | |
800 | Added gzstream example script. |
801 | |
802 | 0.4 - Upgrade to support zlib 0.99 |
803 | |
804 | Added dictionary interface. |
805 | |
806 | Fixed bug in gzreadline - previously it would keep returning |
807 | the same buffer. This bug was reported by Helmut Jarausch |
808 | |
809 | Removed dependency to zutil.h and so dropped support for |
810 | |
811 | DEF_MEM_LEVEL (use MAX_MEM_LEVEL instead) |
812 | DEF_WBITS (use MAX_WBITS instead) |
813 | |
814 | 0.3 - Added prototype specification. |
815 | |
816 | 0.2 - Fixed a minor allocation problem in Zlib.xs |
817 | |
818 | 0.1 - first alpha release. 2nd October 1995 |
