1 Revision history for Perl extension Cwd.
3 2.17 Wed Mar 10 07:55:36 CST 2004
5 - The change in 2.16 created a testing failure when tested from
6 within a path that contains symlinks (for instance, /tmp ->
9 2.16 Sat Mar 6 17:56:31 CST 2004
11 - For VMS compatibility (and to conform to Cwd's documented
12 interface), in the regression tests we now compare output results
13 to an absolute path. [Craig A. Berry]
15 2.15 Fri Jan 16 08:09:44 CST 2004
17 - Fixed a problem on static perl builds - while creating
18 Makefile.aperl, it was loading a mismatched version of Cwd from
19 blib/ . [Reported by Blair Zajac]
21 2.14 Thu Jan 8 18:51:08 CST 2004
23 - We now use File::Spec->canonpath() and properly-escaped regular
24 expressions when comparing paths in the regression tests. This
25 fixes some testing failures in 2.13 on non-Unix platforms. No
26 changes were made in the actual Cwd module code. [Steve Hay]
28 2.13 Fri Jan 2 22:29:42 CST 2004
30 - Changed a '//' comment to a '/* */' comment in the XS code, so that
31 it'll compile properly under ANSI C rules. [Jarkko Hietaniemi]
33 - Fixed a 1-character buffer overrun problem in the C code. [The BSD
36 2.12 Fri Dec 19 17:04:52 CST 2003
38 - Fixed a bug on Cygwin - the output of realpath() should have been
39 tainted, but wasn't. [Reported by Tom Wyant]
41 2.10 Mon Dec 15 07:50:12 CST 2003
43 (Note that this release was mistakenly packaged as version 2.11, even
44 though it had an internal $VERSION variable of 2.10. Not sure how
47 - There was a dependency in the Makefile.PL on Module::Build, which
48 isn't necessary. I've removed it.
50 2.09 Thu Dec 11 20:30:58 CST 2003
52 - The module should now build & install using version 5.6 of perl.
54 - We now note a build-time dependency on version 0.19 of
55 Module::Build, which is necessary because we don't use the standard
56 lib/-based file layout. No version of Module::Build is required if
57 you use the Makefile.PL, just if you use the Build.PL .
59 - Removed some gratuitous uses of 5.6-isms like our(), with the aim
60 of backporting this module to perl 5.005.
62 - Simplified all code that autoloads Carp.pm and calls
65 - Removed some redundant OS/2 code at the suggestion of Michael
66 Schwern and Ilya Zakharevich.
68 - Make sure the correct version of Cwd.pm is loaded in the regression
71 2.08 Wed Oct 15 20:56 CDT 2003
73 - Code extracted from perl 5.8.1 and packaged as a separate CPAN
74 release by Ken Williams.
