5 | |
6 | * added semi-private routine rename_country() to Locale::Country, |
7 | based on a patch from Iain Chalmers. |
8 | * added test rename.t for the above function. |
9 | * renamed _alias_code to be alias_code. Have retained the old |
10 | name for backwards compatibility. Will remove it when the |
11 | major version number next changes. |

14 | |
15 | * Split the documentation for all modules into separate pod files. |
16 | * Made sure all =over were =over 4; some were other values. |
17 | * The code2code() methods had one more shift than was needed. |

19 | 2.00 2002-02-17 neilb |
20 | |
21 | * Created Locale::Script which provides an interface to the |
22 | ISO codes for identification of scripts (writing scripts, |
23 | rather than perl style scripts). The codes are defined |
24 | by ISO 15924, which is currently in final draft. |
25 | Thanks to Jarkko for pointing out this new standard. |
26 | All three code sets are supported, and a test-suite added. |
27 | |
28 | * Added support for country name variants to Locale::Country, |
29 | so that |
30 | country2code('USA') |
31 | country2code('United States') |
32 | country2code('United States of America') |
33 | will all return 'us'. |
34 | This had been in the LIMITATIONS section since the first version. |
35 | Patch from TJ Mather <tjmather@tjmather.com> with additional |
36 | variants from me. Added test-cases for these. |
37 | |
38 | * Added VERSION to Locale::Constants. Thanks to Jarkko for |
39 | pointing that it was missing. |
40 | |
41 | * Should really have bumped major version with previous release, |
42 | since there was a change to the API. |
43 | |
44 | 1.06 2001-03-04 neilb |
45 | |
46 | Added Locale::Constants, which defines three symbols |
47 | for identifying which codeset is being used: |
48 | |
49 | LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2 |
50 | LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_3 |
51 | LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC |
52 | |
53 | Updated Locale::Country to support all three code sets |
54 | defined by ISO 3166. This was requested by Keith Wall. |
55 | I haven't added multiple codeset support to the other |
56 | modules yet - I'll wait until someone asks for them. |
57 | |
58 | 1.05 Feb 2001 |
59 | |
60 | Added Locale::Currency, contribution from Michael Hennecke. |
61 | Added testsuite for it (t/currency.t) and added testcases |
62 | to t/all.t for the all_* functions. |
63 | |
64 | 1.04 Dec 2000 |
65 | |
66 | Fixed very minor typos from 1.03! |
67 | |
68 | 1.03 Dec 2000 |
69 | |
70 | Updated Locale::Country: |
71 | - fixed spelling of a few countries |
72 | - added link to a relevant page from CIA world factbook |
73 | |
74 | Updated Locale::Language: |
75 | - fixed typo in the documentation (ISO 939 should be 639) |
76 | |
77 | 1.02 May 2000 |
78 | |
79 | Updated Locale::Country and Locale::Language to reflect changes |
80 | in the relevant ISO standards. These mainly reflect languages |
81 | which are new to the relevant standard, and changes in the |
82 | spelling of some country names. |
83 | |
84 | Added official URLs for the standards to the SEE ALSO sections |
85 | of the doc for each module. |
86 | |
87 | Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for pointing me at the pages |
88 | with latest versions of ISO 3166 and 639. |
89 | |
90 | 1.00 March 1998 |
91 | |
92 | Added Locale::Country::_alias_code() so that 'uk' can be added |
93 | as the code for "United Kingdom", if you want it. |
94 | This was prompted by Ed Jordan <ed@chronos.net> |
95 | |
96 | Added a new testsuite for handling this case, and extended the |
97 | existing test-suite to include testing of the case where |
98 | 'uk' hasn't been defined as a valid code. |
