+Revision history for Perl extension ExtUtils::CBuilder.
+
+0.17 Wed Mar 15 22:46:15 CST 2006
+
+ - When we're being run from an uninstalled perl distribution
+ (e.g. one that's in the process of being built and tested), we
+ search for perl first in the current working directory. [Randy
+ Sims]
+
+ - More fixing of the arg_defines() method on VMS. [Craig A. Berry and
+ John E. Malmberg]
+
+0.16 Mon Mar 13 17:08:21 CST 2006
+
+ - Fix quoting of command line arguments on Windows. [Yitzchak
+ Scott-Thoennes]
+
+ - Provided a custom arg_defines() on VMS that does essentially the
+ same thing for /define that version 0.14 did for /include. [Craig
+ A. Berry]
+
+ - Documented the existing 'quiet' parameter, which silences the
+ printing of system() commands. [Suggested by Yitzchak
+ Scott-Thoennes]
+
+0.15 Mon Oct 3 17:10:32 CDT 2005
+
+ - Several OS/2 fixes have been made, including: 1) adding the
+ necessary version string to DLLs, 2) passing the executable's name
+ to 'ldopts' without the .exe extension, 3) avoiding calling 'env'
+ via the 'shrpenv' thingy, since it triggers a fork() bug. [Ilya
+ Zakharevich]
+
+ - Integrate a couple cleanup-related changes from bleadperl that
+ somehow never got into this copy. [Steve Hay]
+
+ - Added a new 'defines' parameter to compile(), which gives a
+ platform-independant way to specify various -Dfoo=bar (or the
+ equivalent) compiler defines. [Randy W. Sims]
+
+0.14 Mon Sep 19 13:40:37 CDT 2005
+
+ - Several fixes have been made for VMS, including: 1) there can only
+ be one /include qualifier, so merge multiple /includes into one; 2)
+ make sure the executable is named the same way that dynaloader will
+ look for it; 3) make sure the option files for the exported symbols
+ and the PERLSHR image are passed properly to the linker. [John
+ E. Malmberg]
+
+0.13 Wed Aug 24 20:05:59 CDT 2005
+
+ - Several temporary files weren't being cleaned up during testing,
+ because the 'cleanup' mechanism was never properly implemented.
+ This is now fixed. [Steve Hay]
+
+0.12 Mon May 30 16:40:10 CDT 2005
+
+ - In order to integrate into the perl core, patches were contributed
+ that a) put a $VERSION variable in each .pm file, b) add a 'quiet'
+ parameter to new() to shut up some of the command-echoing, c)
+ checks for the perl source headers in the CORE/ directory in the
+ perl source tree, not in the post-installation location, and d)
+ adjusts the CWD when running the regression tests under the perl
+ core. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes]
+
+ - Various parts of the code were looking for the CORE/ directory in
+ $Config{archlib}, $Config{installarchlib}, and $Config{archlibexp}.
+ Only the latter is correct, so we use that everywhere now.
+ [Curt Tilmes]
+
+ - For Unix-ish platforms, link_executable() will now prefer
+ $Config{cc} to $Config{ld}, because that typically works
+ better. [Jarkko Hietaniemi and H.Merijn Brand]
+
+ - Prelinking (invoking ExtUtils::Mksymlists to create options-files)
+ is now only done when we're building dynamic libraries. [Yitzchak
+ Scott-Thoennes]
+
+0.11 Tue Apr 5 20:58:41 CDT 2005
+
+ - Added a licensing statement to CBuilder.pm. [Spotted by Chip
+ Salzenberg]
+
+0.10 Mon Mar 14 20:18:19 CST 2005
+
+ - Split out a few simple routines that format how compile switches
+ are formatted, so that we can override them for platforms like VMS
+ where they're very different.
+
+ - Fix compile() and link() on VMS. [Help from Michael Schwern and
+ Peter Prymmer]
+
+0.09 Tue Feb 8 17:57:41 CST 2005
+
+ - Fixed a broken link_executable() method on cygwin - it now uses
+ 'gcc' instead of $Config{ld} for the linking, because the latter is
+ actually a shell script which calls a perl script which calls gcc
+ in a way that only works for creating shared libraries, not
+ executables.
+
+0.08 Tue Jan 18 21:54:11 CST 2005
+
+ - Fixed a testing error in which I had the prototype wrong for the
+ main() function. [Jose Pedro Oliveira]
+
+0.07 Wed Jan 12 21:50:34 CST 2005
+
+ - Added the link_executable() method, which provides the ability to
+ create standalone executables. This is NOT yet implemented on
+ Windows, and therefore the tests for it are skipped on Win32.
+ [Alberto Manuel Brandao Simoes]
+
+ - Integrated the latest split_like_shell() for Windows from
+ Module::Build (really need to find a better home for this code...),
+ which now does a much better job of handling quotes and backslashes
+ and so on. [Randy Sims]
+
+ - Fixed a couple of Windows problems related to the output-file name
+ in link(), and some clobbering of the 'include_dirs' parameter to
+ compile(). [Randy Sims]
+
+0.06 Mon Dec 27 22:51:36 CST 2004
+
+ - Fixed a bug on Unix environments in which our work-around for
+ shell-commands like "FOO=BAR cc" (which is supposed to be turned
+ into "env FOO=BAR cc" to actually work) wasn't being called.
+
+0.05 Wed Oct 13 23:09:09 CDT 2004
+
+ - Fixed a bug in split_like_shell() in which leading whitespace was
+ creating an empty word, manifesting as something like "gcc - no
+ such file or directory" during tests. [Spotted by Warren L. Dodge]
+
+ - Incorporate another split_like_shell() fix from Module::Build.
+
+0.04 Sun Oct 10 00:31:08 CDT 2004
+
+ - Changed the split_like_shell() method to use the shellwords()
+ function from Text::ParseWords (a core module since 5.0), which
+ does a much better job than the split() we were using.
+
+
+0.03 Fri May 14 23:12:23 CDT 2004
+
+ - Fixed minor problems with the Build.PL file, the module names
+ should be quoted.
+
+ - The VMS module declared itself with the wrong package name.
+
+
+0.02 Fri Feb 20 10:17:40 CST 2004
+
+ - Fixed a bug in .../Platform/Windows.pm, in which compile() was
+ ignoring an 'include_dirs' argument. [Randy Sims]
+
+ - Fixed a bug in .../Platform/Windows.pm, in which output files were
+ being created in the root directory \ when they should be created
+ in the current directory. [Randy Sims]
+
+
+0.01 Mon Jan 12 08:12:35 CST 2004
+
+ - Original release, taken from Module::Build's C-building code, with
+ patching help from Randy Sims.
