1 | Revision history for the Perl extension Win32. |
2 | |
b5701e9e |
3 | 0.36 [2008-04-17] |
4 | - Add typecasts for Win64 compilation |
5 | |
159fce98 |
6 | 0.35 [2008-03-31] |
7 | Integrate changes from bleadperl: |
8 | - Silence Borland compiler warning (Steve Hay) |
9 | - Fix memory leak in Win32::GetOSVersion (Vincent Pit) |
10 | - Test Win32::GetCurrentThreadId on cygwin (Reini Urban, Steve Hay) |
11 | |
12 | 0.34 [2007-11-21] |
13 | - Document "WinVista" return value for Win32::GetOSName() |
14 | (Steve Hay). |
15 | |
16 | 0.33 [2007-11-12] |
17 | - Update version to 0.33 for Perl 5.10 release |
18 | - Add $^O test in Makefile.PL for CPAN Testers |
19 | - Use Win32::GetLastError() instead of $^E in t/Names.t for |
20 | cygwin compatibility (Jerry D. Hedden). |
21 | |
22 | 0.32 [2007-09-20] |
23 | - Additional #define's for older versions of VC++ (Dmitry Karasik). |
24 | - Win32::DomainName() doesn't return anything when the Workstation |
25 | service isn't running. Set $^E and adapt t/Names.t accordingly |
26 | (Steve Hay & Jerry D. Hedden). |
27 | - Fix t/Names.t to allow Win32::GetOSName() to return an empty |
28 | description as the 2nd return value (e.g. Vista without SP). |
29 | - Fix t/GetFileVersion.t for Perl 5.10 |
30 | |
31 | 0.31 [2007-09-10] |
32 | - Apply Cygwin fixes from bleadperl (from Jerry D. Hedden). |
33 | - Make sure Win32::GetLongPathName() always returns drive |
34 | letters in uppercase (Jerry D. Hedden). |
35 | - Use uppercase environment variable names in t/Unicode.t |
36 | because the MSWin32 doesn't care, and Cygwin only works |
37 | with the uppercased version. |
38 | - new t/Names.t test (from Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni) |
39 | |
40 | 0.30 [2007-06-25] |
41 | - Fixed t/Unicode.t test for Cygwin (with help from Jerry D. Hedden). |
42 | - Fixed and documented Win32::GetShortPathName() to return undef |
43 | when the pathname doesn't exist (thanks to Steve Hay). |
44 | - Added t/GetShortPathName.t |
45 | |
46 | 0.29 [2007-05-17] |
47 | - Fixed to compile with Borland BCC (thanks to Steve Hay). |
48 | |
49 | 0.28_01 [2007-05-16] |
50 | - Increase version number as 0.28 was already used by an ActivePerl |
51 | release (for essentially 0.27 plus the Win32::IsAdminUser() change). |
52 | |
53 | - Add MODULE and PROTOTYPES directives to silence warnings from |
54 | newer versions of xsubpp. |
55 | |
56 | - Use the Cygwin codepath in Win32::GetFullPathName() when |
57 | PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS is not defined, because the other code |
58 | relies on the virtualization code in win32/vdir.h. |
59 | |
60 | 0.27_02 [2007-05-15] |
61 | - We need Windows 2000 or later for the Unicode support because |
62 | WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS is not supported on Windows NT. |
63 | |
64 | - Fix Win32::GetFullPathName() on Windows NT to return an |
65 | empty file part if the original argument ends with a slash. |
66 | |
67 | 0.27_01 [2007-04-18] |
68 | - Update Win32::IsAdminUser() to use the IsUserAnAdmin() function |
69 | in shell32.dll when available. On Windows Vista this will only |
70 | return true if the process is running with elevated privileges |
71 | and not just when the owner of the process is a member of the |
72 | "Administrators" group. |
73 | |
74 | - Win32::ExpandEnvironmentStrings() may return a Unicode string |
75 | (a string containing characters outside the system codepage) |
76 | |
77 | - new Win32::GetANSIPathName() function returns a pathname in |
78 | a form containing only characters from the system codepage |
79 | |
80 | - Win32::GetCwd() will return an ANSI version of the directory |
81 | name if the long name contains characters outside the system |
82 | codepage. |
83 | |
84 | - Win32::GetFolderPath() will return an ANSI pathname. Call |
85 | Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode |
86 | representation. |
87 | |
88 | - Win32::GetFullPathName() will return an ANSI pathname. Call |
89 | Win32::GetLongPathName() to get the canonical Unicode |
90 | representation. |
91 | |
92 | - Win32::GetLongPathName() may return a Unicode path name. |
93 | Call Win32::GetANSIPathName() to get a representation using |
94 | only characters from the system codepage. |
95 | |
96 | - Win32::LoginName() may return a Unicode string. |
97 | |
98 | - new Win32::OutputDebugString() function sends a string to |
99 | the debugger. |
100 | |
101 | - new Win32::GetCurrentThreadId() function returns the thread |
102 | id (to complement the process id in $$). |
103 | |
104 | - new Win32::CreateDirectory() creates a new directory. The |
105 | name of the directory may contain Unicode characters outside |
106 | the system codepage. |
107 | |
108 | - new Win32::CreateFile() creates a new file. The name of the |
109 | file may contain Unicode characters outside the system codepage. |
110 | |
111 | |
112 | 0.27 [2007-03-07] |
113 | - Extracted from the libwin32 distribution to simplify maintenance |
114 | because Win32 is a dual-life core module since 5.8.4. |
115 | |
116 | - Win32.pm and Win32.xs updated to version in bleadperl. |
117 | This includes all the Win32::* function from win32/win32.c |
118 | in core Perl, except for Win32::SetChildShowWindows(). |
119 | |
120 | - Install into 'perl' directory instead of 'site' for Perl 5.8.4 |
121 | and later. |
122 | |
123 | - Add some simple tests. |
