20 | 0.35 [2008-03-31] |
21 | Integrate changes from bleadperl: |
22 | - Silence Borland compiler warning (Steve Hay) |
23 | - Fix memory leak in Win32::GetOSVersion (Vincent Pit) |
24 | - Test Win32::GetCurrentThreadId on cygwin (Reini Urban, Steve Hay) |
25 | |
26 | 0.34 [2007-11-21] |
27 | - Document "WinVista" return value for Win32::GetOSName() |
28 | (Steve Hay). |
29 | |
30 | 0.33 [2007-11-12] |
31 | - Update version to 0.33 for Perl 5.10 release |
32 | - Add $^O test in Makefile.PL for CPAN Testers |
33 | - Use Win32::GetLastError() instead of $^E in t/Names.t for |
34 | cygwin compatibility (Jerry D. Hedden). |
35 | |
36 | 0.32 [2007-09-20] |
37 | - Additional #define's for older versions of VC++ (Dmitry Karasik). |
38 | - Win32::DomainName() doesn't return anything when the Workstation |
39 | service isn't running. Set $^E and adapt t/Names.t accordingly |
40 | (Steve Hay & Jerry D. Hedden). |
41 | - Fix t/Names.t to allow Win32::GetOSName() to return an empty |
42 | description as the 2nd return value (e.g. Vista without SP). |
43 | - Fix t/GetFileVersion.t for Perl 5.10 |
44 | |
45 | 0.31 [2007-09-10] |
46 | - Apply Cygwin fixes from bleadperl (from Jerry D. Hedden). |
47 | - Make sure Win32::GetLongPathName() always returns drive |
48 | letters in uppercase (Jerry D. Hedden). |
49 | - Use uppercase environment variable names in t/Unicode.t |
50 | because the MSWin32 doesn't care, and Cygwin only works |
51 | with the uppercased version. |
52 | - new t/Names.t test (from Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni) |
53 | |
54 | 0.30 [2007-06-25] |
55 | - Fixed t/Unicode.t test for Cygwin (with help from Jerry D. Hedden). |
56 | - Fixed and documented Win32::GetShortPathName() to return undef |
57 | when the pathname doesn't exist (thanks to Steve Hay). |
58 | - Added t/GetShortPathName.t |
59 | |
60 | 0.29 [2007-05-17] |
61 | - Fixed to compile with Borland BCC (thanks to Steve Hay). |
62 | |
63 | 0.28_01 [2007-05-16] |
64 | - Increase version number as 0.28 was already used by an ActivePerl |
65 | release (for essentially 0.27 plus the Win32::IsAdminUser() change). |
66 | |
67 | - Add MODULE and PROTOTYPES directives to silence warnings from |
68 | newer versions of xsubpp. |
69 | |
70 | - Use the Cygwin codepath in Win32::GetFullPathName() when |
71 | PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS is not defined, because the other code |
72 | relies on the virtualization code in win32/vdir.h. |
73 | |
74 | 0.27_02 [2007-05-15] |
75 | - We need Windows 2000 or later for the Unicode support because |
76 | WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS is not supported on Windows NT. |
77 | |
78 | - Fix Win32::GetFullPathName() on Windows NT to return an |
79 | empty file part if the original argument ends with a slash. |
80 | |
81 | 0.27_01 [2007-04-18] |
82 | - Update Win32::IsAdminUser() to use the IsUserAnAdmin() function |
83 | in shell32.dll when available. On Windows Vista this will only |
84 | return true if the process is running with elevated privileges |
85 | and not just when the owner of the process is a member of the |
86 | "Administrators" group. |
87 | |
88 | - Win32::ExpandEnvironmentStrings() may return a Unicode string |
89 | (a string containing characters outside the system codepage) |
90 | |
91 | - new Win32::GetANSIPathName() function returns a pathname in |
92 | a form containing only characters from the system codepage |
93 | |
94 | - Win32::GetCwd() will return an ANSI version of the directory |
95 | name if the long name contains characters outside the system |
96 | codepage. |
97 | |
98 | - Win32::GetFolderPath() will return an ANSI pathname. Call |
99 | Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode |
100 | representation. |
101 | |
102 | - Win32::GetFullPathName() will return an ANSI pathname. Call |
103 | Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode |
104 | representation. |
105 | |
106 | - Win32::GetLongPathName() may return a Unicode path name. |
107 | Call Win32::GetANSIPathName() to get a representation using |
108 | only characters from the system codepage. |
109 | |
110 | - Win32::LoginName() may return a Unicode string. |
111 | |
112 | - new Win32::OutputDebugString() function sends a string to |
113 | the debugger. |
114 | |
115 | - new Win32::GetCurrentThreadId() function returns the thread |
116 | id (to complement the process id in $$). |
117 | |
118 | - new Win32::CreateDirectory() creates a new directory. The |
119 | name of the directory may contain Unicode characters outside |
120 | the system codepage. |
121 | |
122 | - new Win32::CreateFile() creates a new file. The name of the |
123 | file may contain Unicode characters outside the system codepage. |
124 | |
125 | |
126 | 0.27 [2007-03-07] |
127 | - Extracted from the libwin32 distribution to simplify maintenance |
128 | because Win32 is a dual-life core module since 5.8.4. |
129 | |
130 | - Win32.pm and Win32.xs updated to version in bleadperl. |
131 | This includes all the Win32::* function from win32/win32.c |
132 | in core Perl, except for Win32::SetChildShowWindows(). |
133 | |
134 | - Install into 'perl' directory instead of 'site' for Perl 5.8.4 |
135 | and later. |
136 | |
137 | - Add some simple tests. |
