16 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
17 | - Removed duplicate NAME macro definition |
18 | - Fixed makemakerdflt target for VMS |
19 | * bleadperl@11460 introduced a bug with recursive Makefile.PL's not |
20 | having '.' in @INC. PDL should build now. |
21 | * MANIFEST.SKIP only working on file names, not full relative paths. |
22 | Only since 5.51_01 (RT 413) |
23 | * make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 was busted by 5.50_01 (RT 423) |
24 | * Error messages from dying Makefile.PL's and hint files were |
25 | accidentally supressed in 5.48_04. Fixed. |
26 | * Makefile.PL's are supposed to be run in package main. 5.48_04 |
27 | broke this. Fixed. |
28 | * Fixing installing on VMS. |

31 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
32 | * ActivePerl 5.6.1/build 631 now 100% |
33 | - Fixed some SelfLoader warnings |
34 | * ExtUtils::MM_Win32 not subclassed off of ExtUtils::MM_Any properly |
35 | - Bug in local $ENV{FOO} was causing failures in MM_Win32 tests. |
36 | Compensating for the bug. |
37 | - $Config{prefixexp} is sometimes bad on ActivePerl, compensating |
38 | - Accidentally left htmlifypods tests in MM_Win32 tests |
39 | |
40 | [[ Doc Changes ]] |
41 | - Expanding Known Good list |
42 | - Adding Known Programs to README |
43 | |
44 | 5.51_01 Mon Mar 18 01:37:02 EST 2002 |
45 | [[ API Changes ]] |
46 | - Removing xsubpp and typemap from the distribution. These are not |
47 | Perl version independent files and should not be upgraded. |
48 | - Removing ExtUtils::Embed. Version specific module and should |
49 | not be updated. |
50 | - Removing ExtUtils::Constant. Not directly tied to MakeMaker. |
51 | Will be distributed seperately by Nick Clark. |
52 | |
53 | [[ New Features ]] |
54 | * realclean now deletes 'dist' directory. |
55 | |
56 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
57 | * Fixing ExtUtils::Installed for VMS |
58 | * Fixed it so MakeMaker can build itself without needing an eariler |
59 | version installed |
60 | * Fixed ExtUtils::Installed so packlists work on VMS |
61 | * ExtUtils::MM_VMS test had a stupid typo that prevented most |
62 | of the tests from running. |
63 | - Fixing VMS so 'mmk' is always 'mmk all' (bleadperl 15218) |
64 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->catfile was calling catdir |
65 | - Added Ken William's "speed up ExtUtils::Manifest" patch. |
66 | - Added Nick Clark's return value of manifest routines patch |
67 | (bleadperl@14978) |
68 | - Merging in bleadperl changes (14438, 14453, 14611, 14612, 14622, |
69 | 14655, 14677, 14688, 14902, 15023, 15187, 15367) |
70 | - bleadperl change 15325 (VMS 'mmk all' hack) rejected. |
71 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->test_via_harness() now using -MExtUtils::testlib |
72 | instead of -I's. This keeps the command line shorter on VMS, but |
73 | it means TEST_LIB doesn't work anymore. May prove problematic. |
74 | - PERLRUN now uses FULLPERL instead of PERL. This avoids |
75 | accidental use of miniperl. May cause problems in the core. |
76 | - Fixed test_via_harness() on VMS so it uses PERLRUN. |
77 | - ExtUtils::Manifest wrongly handling MANIFEST on VMS. |
78 | - ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip broken due to misuse of /o on a regex. |
79 | |
80 | 5.50_01 Mon Mar 4 23:44:48 EST 2002 |
81 | [[ API Changes ]] |
82 | htmlifypods and all HTML targets have been removed. It didn't |
83 | work properly. A target for HTMLifying of docs will be |
84 | added sometime in the future (read: send a patch). |
85 | - Deprecated ROOTEXT variable removed (its been deprecated for |
86 | more than five years). |
87 | - Removed ExtUtils::Miniperl from the CPAN distribution. Can't |
88 | see how its useful outside the core. |
89 | |
90 | [[ New Features ]] |
91 | * Emacs backup files (ie. *~) are no longer copied into blib |
92 | (this means you won't get Foo.pm~ accidentally installed anymore). |
93 | - prefixify() now returns if the prefixification worked or not. |
94 | - added the Perl patchlevel info to the description embedded in DLLs |
95 | (Ilya Zakharevich perl change 14810) |
96 | |
97 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
98 | * 5.49_01 broke anything that depended on the MM class to be loaded |
99 | with ExtUtils::MakeMaker, like CPAN. Temporarily fixed. |
100 | * Many places wrongfully assume MM methods can be called as class |
101 | methods! Inside and outside of MakeMaker. |
102 | * DOS now acts like Win32 instead of Unix. This should be less wrong. |
103 | - Netware tweak from Ananth Kesari (perl change 14780) |
104 | |
105 | [[ Doc Changes ]] |
106 | * made the docs about the behavior of PREFIX a bit more vague |
107 | reflecting its odd behavior. |
108 | - Replaced references to %Config with things people are more likely |
109 | to understand in PREFIX & LIB docs. |
110 | - Put PREFIX before LIB in the docs. |
111 | |
112 | [[ Internal Refactorings ]] |
113 | - File::Spec wrappers consolidated in MM_Any |
114 | - test_via_harness/script consolidated in MM_Any |
115 | * Added ExtUtils::Command::MM to replace large -e "one-liners" |
116 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_UWIN, took UWIN specific code out of MM_Unix. |
117 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_DOS, took some DOS specific code out of MM_Unix |
118 | - Added a dist() override to MM_OS2. |
119 | - Took the OS/2 specific code out of MM_Unix's dist() |
120 | - Starting to quote as many command line switches as possible |
121 | to make VMS have to override less of MM_Unix. |
122 | |
123 | 5.49_01 Mon Feb 4 00:42:40 EST 2002 |
124 | - Default TEST_LIBS now contains absolute paths, so tests can |
125 | chdir without breaking @INC. |
126 | - Some bug fixes in MM_Win32 were missing in MM_NW5. |
127 | - LLIBPERL was not being set. |
128 | - Gisle Aas fixed a warning in prompt when the user hits ctrl-D |
129 | or pipes STDIN to /dev/null. |
130 | - VMS's test is now a proper ->can check. |
131 | - Stray newline in Command.t causing havoc (bleadperl 14441) |
132 | |
133 | * Lots of internal changes. Everything from here on is an internal |
134 | change. |
135 | - Broke ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid out into its own .pm. Temporary. |
136 | - Broke MM and MY out into their own .pm's. Possibly temporary. |
137 | - Broke ExtUtils::MM_Win95 out of ExtUtils::MM_Win32. MM_Win95 |
138 | is now an MM_Win32 subclass. |
139 | - Removed wrapper methods from ExtUtils::Liblist that were |
140 | defering File::Spec loading. Almost everything uses File::Spec |
141 | - Changed most of the 'our's to 'use vars' in prep for 5.005_03 |
142 | backporting |
143 | - Changed ExtUtils::MakeMaker->import(...) cargo-cultery in MM_* |
144 | modules to proper "use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(...)" |
145 | - All non-Unix MM_* modules now directly inherit from MM_Unix. |
146 | They did this before, but in a round-about way. |
147 | - MM_* modules no longer directly muck with @MM::ISA. Instead |
148 | @MM::ISA does that itself. |
149 | - Removed unnecessary require of Exporter in many MM_* modules. |
150 | - MM_Cygwin was using an MM_Unix function directly without have |
151 | explicitly required MM_Unix. |
152 | - Most of MM_NW5 was redundant with MM_Win32. So MM_NW5 is now |
153 | a subclass of Win32 and the reduendant code has been deleted. |
154 | - Replaced lots of calls to File::Spec->updir, curdir and rootdir |
155 | with a global in MM_Unix. Should make things a bit faster. |
156 | - Untabified ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I hate tabs. |
157 | - "Which MM subclass should I use" logic moved from EU::MakeMaker |
158 | to EU::MM. |
159 | - Deprecated EU::MakeMaker::Version_check deleted. |
160 | |
161 | 5.48_04 Mon Jan 21 19:28:38 EST 2002 |
162 | - No longer requiring Test::More |
163 | - Now tested to work with a clean 5.6.1 |
75e2e551 |
164 | - Stripped out $Revision: 1.27 $ based $VERSIONs. |
f6d6199c |
165 | - Rolled in patches from p5p, vmsperl & VOS (14325, 14338, 14360, 14364) |
166 | * hint files now run in a safer context. Only $self is available. |
167 | - ExtUtils::testlib now provides absolute paths into @INC. |
168 | No longer obsolete |
169 | - Little test fixes |
170 | |

171 | 5.48_03 Thu Jan 17 23:44:38 EST 2002 |
172 | * moved bin/inst to bin/instmodsh |
173 | * Some Win32 backporting fixes. The -x switch doesn't seem to |
174 | work on Win32/5.6.1. |
175 | * Bug on Win32. MAKEMAKER variable not set properly. |
176 | * _02 broke hints files. Now fixed. |
177 | - Minor prereq error formatting glitch |
178 | - ExtUtils::testlib no longer a thin wrapper around blib, now a |
179 | thin wrapper around lib like it was. blib is noisy on 5.6.1. |
180 | - Nick and chromatic found and fixed some warnings in the tests |
181 | |
182 | 5.48_02 Wed Jan 16 19:11:26 EST 2002 |
183 | - Fixed some Win32 warnings. Needs more work. |
184 | |
185 | 5.48_01 Wed Jan 16 15:10:28 EST 200 |
186 | * Adapted from bleadperl@14303 |
187 | * Backported to 5.6.1 |
188 | - inst and xsubpp moved out of lib/ and into bin/ |
189 | - ExtUtils::testlib obsoleted. Now a thin wrapper around blib.pm |
190 | ***--> Non-Unix platforms not tested at all! Please test and report |
191 | back. Tests probably only need minor fixes. |
