220 - Removed use of AutoLoader for constants, constants are
221 now defined as constant XS subs
222 - Added fsync, but will not be avaliable for use
223 unless HAS_FSYNC is defined, perls configure does not define

244 Sun 19 Jan 1997 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
246 o Updated PODs for IO::Handle and IO::File
247 o Modified IO.xs so that DESTROY gets called on IO::File
248 objects that were created with IO::File->new_tmpfile
249 o Modified the domain2pkg code in IO::Socket so that it
250 does not use blessd refs
251 o Created a new package IO::Pipe::End so that pipe specific
252 stuff can be moved out of IO::Handle.
253 o Added Ilya's OS/2 changes to Pipe.pm and io_pipe.t
255 o These changes happened somtime before the release of 1.15
256 - added shutdown to IO::Socket

264 o Updated to patches in perl core dist.
265 o Added C<use strict> to all modules
266 o Modified t/io_sock.t, hopefully the race condition has gone
267 o Added close statements to reader/writer in IO::Pipe
268 o IO::Handle::syswrite was calling sysread, fixed :-)
272 Thu 19 Sep 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
274 o Modified IO.xs so that it will compile with pre perlio version
275 of perl (ie pre perl5.003_02)
276 o Modified IO::Socket::send so not to pass 4 arguments to send
277 if the socket is connected
281 Mon 11 Sep 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
283 o Fixed a bug in IO::Socket which caused DESTROY to be called
284 on a partly initialised connection
285 o Changed IO.xs to use Perlio
286 o Modified usage message to report correct package
287 o Added IO::File::new changes from Chip, to allow PERM to be passed
288 o Added sysread and syswrite methods to IO::Handle
289 o Updated documentation
290 o Fixed a bug in IO::Select that caused a hang if the last handle
292 o Added count method to IO::Select
293 o Renamed and modified tests so that they can be copied into the
295 o Added fcntl and ioctl methods to IO::Handle
297 Thu 25 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
299 o It is now not necessary to call the domain sub-classes of
300 IO::Socket. when connect is called it notes the domain.
301 Domain specific methods, which are normally non-critical, are
302 called via this note-ing.
303 o Added methods to IO::Socket to retrieve the domain, type and
304 protocol of a given socket
306 Tue 23 Jul 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
308 o IO::Socket::connect changed how we do timeouts, as it did not work
310 o IO::Handle::new_from_fd removed method call to _ref_fd, which was
311 a leftover from FileHandle
313 Fri 28 Jun 1996 <bodg@tiuk.ti.com> Graham Barr
315 o Modified IO::Socket::UNIX::configure to default to using a socket
316 type of SOCK_STREAM if no type is specified.
