This helps installation of dependency chains where a dependency - might configure_requires a new Module::Build after Build.PL was already - run for an earlier distribution. [David Golden, on advice of Matt Trout] - - Other: - - - t/bundle_inc.t fails in odd ways.

Using - 'passthrough' will issue warnings on Makefile.PL generation. See - Module::Build::Compat documentation for rationale. - - Internals: - - - Replaced use of YAML.pm with YAML::Tiny; Module::Build::YAML is now - based on YAML::Tiny as well - - - A new get_metadata() method has been added as a simpler wrapper around - the old, kludgy prepare_metadata() API. - - - Replaced guts of new_from_context().

Now we detect such situations and trim the directory - list to only include directories that actually exist, listed only - once each. Not the ideal solution, but it should work. - - - Silence a warning in M::B::ModuleInfo that happens when the author - is using the "$VERSION = eval $VERSION" idiom. - - - When running the 'testcover' action, do "cover --delete" if any of - the test files have changed (we already did so if any of the code - under test has changed).

[Suggested by Andreas Koenig] - -0.2805_01 Thu Sep 7 21:57:29 CDT 2006 - - - Because of a weird behavior of YAML::Node, any distribution that - used version.pm objects to define their versions was generating the - wrong syntax for the versions in their META.yml file. They will - now appear as strings like v3.42.1 or similar, including the - leading v. - - - Upgraded to version 0.67 of version.pm. [John Peacock] - - - Added a contrib/ directory with a bash completion function for M::B - actions and switches. [Julian Mehnle] - - - When we eval() the embedded version.pm code we will now die() if - the eval() was unsuccessful, rather than continuing blindly on and - dying mysteriously later. - - - Added a 'retest' action that lets users run the current regression - tests on a previously-installed version of a distribution. - - * Instead of storing an entire dump of the Config.pm hash in the - _build/ directory upon startup, we now just store any overrides the - user or author has specified. Note that if you were doing anything - you weren't supposed to be doing, like poking around in the - internals of $buld->{config}, your code might break, so I've put - the asterisk of incompatibility on this one just to cover my - tuchus. [Idea originally by Randy Sims] - - - Made copying files via copy_if_modified() a little less chatty. - -0.2805 Sat Jul 29 22:01:24 CDT 2006 - - - We now embed a copy of version.pm right in the - Module::Build::Version source code, with John Peacock's blessing, - in case the user has a rough time installing version.pm. This - helps alleviate troubles people were still having with working out - a seemingly circular dependency (even though version.pm now ships - with a standard Makefile.PL too). A version.pm >= 0.661 installed - on the system will take precedence over our bundled one. [John - Peacock] - - - Fix some test warnings (or failures?) related to version.pm - numification. [John Peacock] - - - The top-level 'version' entry in META.yml files we'd generated was - in the wrong format (it was being treated as a version.pm object - rather than a serialized copy) due to a weird YAML::Node issue. - Fixed. - - - Don't 'use base qw(version)' anymore in our M::B::Version wrapper, - just set @ISA directly, because some people have reported that the - 'use base' line is croaking. - - - Added an 'allow_mb_mismatch' parameter to suppress the startup - check that ensures the version of M::B currently running is the - same as the one initially used to run the Build.PL. Use with - caution. - - - Module::Build::ModuleInfo will no longer detect things that look - like $VERSION assignments after an __END__ or __DATA__ token. - - - Updated documentation to mention the new mailing list on perl.org - rather than the old one on sourceforge. - -0.2804 Sun Jul 16 16:41:25 CDT 2006 - - - Added 'use version;' in Module::Build::Version, because some - versions of base.pm won't automatically load version.pm when we do - 'use base qw/version/;'. [Spotted by Erik Tank] - -0.2803 Sat Jul 15 08:26:34 CDT 2006 - - - The META.yml file in the last release was all screwed up, so the - distribution wasn't indexed properly. Fixed in this release. - -0.2802 Fri Jul 14 22:40:34 CDT 2006 - - - Added reliance on version.pm, which means we should deal much - better with the wide range of version specifications one finds on - CPAN. This is made possible by recent releases of version.pm that - give the user a pure-perl option, so installing version.pm - shouldn't be too onerous for most users. [John Peacock] - - - We should be accepting the default when we're in unattended mode, - not acting dumb and ignoring both the default and the [empty] - answer from the user. Fixed. [Spotted by Nik Clayton] - -0.2801 Sun May 21 00:07:40 CDT 2006 - - - Module::Build::Compat's emulation of INC is incorrectly prepending - a -I to the value of INC. This is incorrect because there should - already be a -I on the value. I.E. it's "perl Makefile.PL INC=-Ifoo" - not "perl Makefile.PL INC=foo" so Compat should not prefix a -I. - [Michael Schwern] - - - Native batch scripts under Windows should not be converted by - pl2bat. [Spotted by Ron Savage] - - - Tweaked the way we determine whether a file is executable on Unix. - We use this determination to decide whether to make it executable - during installation. [Julian Mehnle] - - - Replaced a vestigial 'next' with 'return' now that the code is in a - subroutine (htmlify_pods()), not a loop. [Ron Savage] - - - Fixed a guaranteed failure in t/signature.t when TEST_SIGNATURE was - set. [Eric R. Meyers] - - - Fixed a test failure that occurred when testing or installing in - unattended mode - the code to test whether unattended mode and - attended mode are working properly was assuming that we started out - in attended mode. [Steve Peters] - - - Improved our stand-in YAML generator that we use to generate - META.yaml when authors don't have a copy of YAML.pm installed on - their machine. It was unable to handle things like embedded - newlines in the data, now it has a much more extensive escaping - mechanism. [Stephen Adkins] - - - Revised the docs for --prefix and PREFIX. [Michael Schwern] - -0.28 Thu Apr 27 22:25:00 CDT 2006 - - - When y_n() or prompt() are called without a default value and the - build seems to be unattended (e.g. in automatic CPAN testing), we - now die() with an error message rather than silently returning - undef for prompt(), or looping indefinitely for y_n(). - - - When searching for '.modulebuildrc', return the first HOME-like - directory that actually contains the file instead of the first - existing directory. Document the search locations and the order - searched. [Spotted by David Golden] - - - Split the API documentation out of Module::Build::Authoring into - its own document: Module::Build::API. - - - We should not emit a warning if a Module::Build subclass is - required in a Makefile.PL that is not bundled in the current - distribution; it may be installed on the user's system. [Spotted by - Tyler MacDonald] - - - copy_if_modified() now preserves the executable bit of the source - file. [Spotted by Julian Mehnle] - - - Fixed compatibility of our screen-scraping the Test::Harness output - so we can recognize the most recent Test::Harness version. [Steve - Hay] - - - Backing out a requirement added in 0.27_06 on the method y_n() - to always include a default. This behavior would cause existing - build scripts to start failing. We now fail with a missing default - only when $ENV{PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT} is set because there is no - reasonable default. - - - Make install_types() method smarter with respect to custom install - types. - - - Add documentation for the install_base_relpaths() and - prefix_relpaths() methods. Improved their usage for a public API, - and added tests. - -0.27_10 Tue Mar 28 22:50:50 CST 2006 - - - Added the create_packlist property, default true, which controls - whether packlist files will be written during installation. This - was already part of Module::Build 0.2609, but for some reason we've - forgotten it in the 0.27_xx series. [Spotted by Steve Kirkup] - - - Document the versions of Module::Build where each feature, action, - constructor argument, and method was first publicly documented. - - - More fixes for find_perl_interpreter() to work with BSD flavored - UNIX: Ensure we always return absolute paths; throw an exception - upon failure to find correct interperter; document everything. - - - We now include our own YAML.pm work-alike that we can use when the - real YAML isn't installed. We might soon even start using it when - YAML is installed, because the YAML API and dependency chain have - been changing in unfavorable ways lately. [Stephen Adkins] - - - Fixed some shell-argument-quoting issues on VMS. In the process, - we have added some support for avoiding tripping over - shell-argument-quoting issues on other platforms too. [Initial - patch by Craig A. Berry] - -0.27_09 Sat Mar 11 22:48:54 EST 2006 - - - Fixed find_perl_interpreter() so we can find the perl executable - when running from uninstalled perl even when $^X contains a - relative path. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - Fixed warning message where we were printing the wrong field names. - [Chris Dolan] - - - Added a 'testpodcoverage' action that runs a POD coverage check for - all modules in the distribution. [Yanick Champoux] - - - Added a Cookbook example of subclassing to modify an action. [Dylan - Martin and David Golden] - - - When building HTML documentation, we were opening the POD file and - not checking whether the open succeeded, which of course caused - problems down the line if it failed. Now we do "or die(...)" like - everywhere else. [Spotted by Joerg Braun] - -0.27_08 Fri Mar 3 21:22:41 CST 2006 - - - Due to shell quoting issues and differences in syntax between - various flavors of Windows, the code for the 'pl2bat' utility - distributed with Perl has been incorporated into M::B::P::Windows. - [Thanks to Dr Bean and Ron Savage for help testing and isolating - the problem.] - - - Modify add_build_element() so that it only adds elements if they - don't already exist. [David Wheeler] - - - Fixed a bug in the 'pass-through' Makefile.PL in which we would die - if CPAN::Shell->install returned false, but apparently this return - value is unreliable. Now we only die if the module is actually - unavailable after installation. - - - Fixed testing problems on VMS related to non-case-preserving - filesystems. We now bundle Tie::CPHash in the distribution (just - for testing purposes, it doesn't get installed) to help with - this. [Craig Berry and Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - We incorrectly documented the 'dynamic_config' flag in the META.yml - file as having a default value of false, but according to the - META.yml spec (which, for heaven's sake, we wrote) its default - value is true. Fixed. [Spotted by Adam Kennedy] - - - The have_c_compiler() method was dying if the ExtUtils::CBuilder - module wasn't around, which is obviously an unhelpful thing to do. - Now it just returns false. [Spotted by John Peacock] - - - Fix detection of $VERSION expressions that are not - assignments. [Spotted by Chris Dolan] - - - Obfuscate one of our constructs that uses a $VERSION variable, - because it was getting picked up by ExtUtils::MakeMaker's - version-finder. [Spotted by Randal Schwartz] - - - The config_data script for querying and/or setting a module's - config data was forgetting to call write() after setting config - values (though setting feature values was working fine). - Fixed. [Brian Duggan] - - - On Windows, remove the pl2bat generated 'Build.bat' script without - the annoying "The batch file cannot be found." error. [Solution - provided by RazTK and foxidrive on newsgroup alt.msdos.batch] - - - Our version comparisons should now work correctly with modules that - use version.pm to delcare their versions (e.g. "our $VERSION = - version->new('1.0.0')"). [John Peacock and Ron Savage] - - - We now create a Build.bat script on versions of Windows where it - makes sense. [Yves] - - - Fixed the verbiage around choosing the correct make-alike on - different platforms to suggest using 'perl -V:make'. [Suggested by - anonymous user] - -0.27_07 Wed Feb 1 20:07:45 CST 2006 - - - The notes() method now returns the new value when called with two - arguments, just like when it's called with one argument. [Tyler - MacDonald] - - - The notes() method now distinguishes among the values undef, 0, and - the empty string, where previously it didn't. [Tyler MacDonald] - - - We now unshift(@INC) rather than push(@INC) for the directory where - a build subclass lives, so that we're sure to pick up the right - version and not some already-installed version. [perlmonkey] - - - The SIGNATURE file for version 0.27_06 (and I'm sure for lots of - versions before that too!) was messed up, since we were modifying - some files after signing. This has been band-aided for the time - being by signing twice. [Reported by Chris Dolan] - -0.27_06 Mon Jan 23 21:44:54 CST 2006 - - - Fixed an undefined-variable warning when building the META.yml file - and the author hasn't used the 'module_name' mechanism. [Chris Dolan] - - - We should now work with recent (> 0.49) versions of YAML.pm when - creating the META.yml file. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - The y_n() method now requires the default parameter, and the - prompt() and y_n() methods have been improved with respect to - how they behave/detect when there is no user to ask. We're now - more consistent with MakeMaker, including respecting the - PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT environment variable. [Tyler MacDonald and - Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - When building a README file using Pod::Text, work around a bug in - Pod::Text 3.01, which expects Pod::Simple::parse_file to take input - and output filehandles when it actually only takes an input - filehandle. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - -0.27_05 Thu Jan 12 17:39:21 CST 2006 - - - In t/common.pl, we were attempting to let the user's installed - Test::More take precedence over ours, but getting thwarted by all - the test scripts' loading Test::More beforehand. Fixed. [Spotted - by Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - In various test scripts, we were outputting some strings that - weren't strictly conformant with Test::Harness's expected input, - though it didn't actually cause problems. Now we're more - conformant, though not yet strict. [Spotted by Yitzchak - Scott-Thoennes] - -0.27_04 Fri Dec 23 10:43:34 CST 2005 - - - Removed experimental feature that extended the prerequisite system - to apply ('requires', 'recommends', and 'conflicts') prereqs to all - actions. Most of the internal extensiblity has been retained so - that prereq types can easily be added, more selectively. - - - Added a 'prereq_report' action that shows the user a well-formatted - list of all prerequisites, the versions required, and the versions - actually installed. [David Wheeler] - - - Clarified the directory name that's created during the 'distdir' - action. [Suggested by Tyler MacDonald] - - - Fixed a bug when creating the META.yml file without the help of - YAML.pm - some common strings weren't quoted & escaped properly. - Now only some uncommon ones are. [Spotted by Joshua ben Jore] - - - Fixed a bug in which an "UNINST=1" argument specified to a - passthrough Makefile's "make install" wasn't actually seen by - Module::Build. - - - Rather than dying when the Build script is run from the wrong - directory, it now simply chdir()s into the right directory and - keeps going. [Suggested by Dominique Quatravaux] - - - Added an "Examples on CPAN" section to the cookbook, with an - initial entry pointing to John Peacock's SVN-Notify-Mirror - distribution. - - - Add an invoked_action() method to return the name of the original - action invoked by the user. - - - Add 'meta-spec' field to the generated META.yml file, including the - version of the specification followed by the current Module::Build - and the url where the specification can be found. - - - Introduced two actions, 'html' & 'manpages', that generate - documentation for POD when the respective feature is enabled. The - actions will generate the documents even if there is no set place - to install to. However, if the actions are invoked as a dependency - of another action (e.g. build), the documentation will only be - built when there is a default or user-specified place to install to. - - - Added support for environment variable, 'MODULEBUILDRC', which can - be used to specify the full path to an option file to use instead - of the default location of ~/.modulebuildrc. A special undocumented - setting of 'NONE' tells Module::Build not to load any user settings, - so tests can be run without tainting from user options. - - - Documented and improved preliminary support for more Getopt::Long - style options are supported, including boolean options (--verbose, - --no-verbose), and use of hyphens in option names in addition to - underscores. - - - The option to disable/enable reading of the ~/.modulebuildrc file - is changed from 'skip_rcfile' to 'use_rcfile' - - - Allow the 'distmeta' action to continue when 'MANIFEST' is missing, - omitting the generation of the 'provieds' field. [Steven Schubiger] - - - Fixed some failing regex from generated MANIFEST.SKIP file. - - - Fixed an edge case in $VERSION parsing where we thought a package() - declaration was happening but it wasn't. [David Golden] - - - Added docs for the install_destination() and install_types() methods. - -0.27_03 (Beta for 0.28) Mon Oct 10 11:19:23 EDT 2005 - - - We now use ExtUtils::CBuilder to do all compiling of C code (for - example, when compiling XS modules). (This change actually - occurred in 0.27_01, but it was mistakenly omitted from the Changes - file.) - - - Fixed an issue on Win32 (and other case-tolerant - non-case-preserving systems, possibly like VMS?) in which the - current working directory would sometimes be reported with - different case, fooling us into thinking that we were in the wrong - directory. [David Golden] - - - The extra_compiler_flags setting was not actually being passed - along to ExtUtils::CBuilder so it could pass it along to the - compiler. Now it is. - - - The synonyms 'scripts' and 'prereq' for 'script_files' and - 'requires' were broken in a previous version (0.27_01, probably), - but now they're fixed. [David Golden] - - - Previously, we assumed that any custom subclass of Module::Build - was located in _build/lib/. This is only true if the author used - the subclass() method, though. We now use %INC to find where the - custom subclass really is, so that we can "use lib" it. We also - issue a warning if it seems to be outside the build directory. - [Spotted by Peter Tandler] - - - Added a URL for each license type that we know about, which will - appear as resources=>license: in the generated META.yml file. - - - If the user passes a no_index parameter to our constructor, we now - pass that through when building the META.yml file. [Richard - Soderberg, RT #9603] - - - A few more status messages can now be suppressed by using 'quiet' - mode. [Dave Rolsky] - - - Added some more entries to the default MANIFEST.SKIP file. [Chris - Dolan] - - - Our POD parser will now accept "AUTHORS" as well as "AUTHOR" when - looking for the author list in a module. [David Wheeler] - - - When looking for the POD to auto-generate a README file, or for the - AUTHOR or ABSTRACT for the distribution, we now also look for a - *.pod with the same name as the *.pm file specified by - 'version_from'. [David Golden] - - - The recommended dependency on ExtUtils::ParseXS has been moved into - the "C_support" auto_feature. - - - When building XS files, we now pass the -DVERSION and -DXS_VERSION - flags to the compiler. [Spotted by Jerry Hedden] - - - If a distribution has XS files and Module::Build has not been - configured with the "C_support" feature, we now issue a - warning. [Suggested by Jerry Hedden] - - - Added a dir_contains() method. - - - Some versions of MakeMaker, CPANPLUS, and/or PAUSE thought that a - certain line of our code was declaring a $VERSION when we didn't - intend to. The line has been obscurified so they won't think that - anymore. [Jos Boumans, RT #14226] - - - Added the Apache, MIT, and Mozilla licenses to the list of licenses - that this module knows about. [Bob Ippolito] - - - Fixed a pretty significant typo in the documentation for - auto_features. [Spotted by Jonas B. Nielsen] - - - In order to aid people who want to do customization of the META.yml - file, we've added a "metafile" property that can then be easily - overridden in subclasses, changed do_create_meta_yml() to - do_create_metafile(), and split out the code that actually - generates the YAML into a new method, write_metafile(). [David - Wheeler] - - - Fixed a couple of non-helpful behaviors with extra_compiler_flags - and extra_linker_flags. These will automatically be run through - split_like_shell() when given to new() as strings. - - - When the user doesn't have ExtUtils::ParseXS installed and we use - the old 'xsubpp', the displayed command line for creating the .c - file from the .xs file was missing its newline. Now it's got it. - -0.27_02 (Beta for 0.28) Fri Jul 15 07:34:58 CDT 2005 - - - Provided initial support for the --prefix installation parameter, - which acts like MakeMaker's PREFIX. It is still highly recommended - NOT to use it when you could reasonably use --install_base or - --install_path or --install_dest, but that's just because the way - --prefix is designed is weird and unpredictable. Ultimately the - choice rests with the installing user. [Patches by Michael Schwern - and Rob Kinyon] - - - Fixed a bug in subclass() which prevented people from using it to - subclass subclasses of Module::Build. [Chris Dolan] - - - Added a 'pure_install' action, which for the time being is - identical to the 'install' action. [Jos Boumans] - - - Fixed a POD error in an L<http://...> tag. [Offer Kaye] - - - Note several options for automatically creating a new module dev - tree. [Suggested by Eric Wilhelm] - - - Removed some hard-coded references to File::Spec::Unix in the - creation of HTML docs, which should help that code work in more - places, and help people not to panic when they look at it. [Spotted - by Yves] - - - We now use Pod::Readme by default (instead of Pod::Text) to - generate the README file when the 'create_readme' option is used. - If Pod::Readme is not installed, we will still fall back to using - Pod::Text. [Robert Rothenberg] - - - The values of the "prefix", "install_base", "install_path", and - "install_dest" parameters can now begin with "~" or "~user", and - we'll de-tilde-ify them by using glob(). - - - The (optional) auto-creation of the README and Makefile.PL files - have been moved from the 'distdir' action to the 'distmeta' - action. [David Golden] - - - When looking for a .modulebuildrc file, we now use a fancier method - of trying to find the home directory, because $ENV{HOME} isn't a - very cross-platform variable. [Robert Rothenberg] - - - We now memoize the output of the internal _default_INC() method, - since it uses backticks and might be kind of slow. - - - When processing XS files, we now look for a typemap in lib/ as well - as using the system's default typemap. [John Peacock] - - - The DESTDIR, PREFIX, and INSTALL_BASE arguments to "make install" - are now supported for pass-through Makefiles (they've been - supported for quite a while as arguments to "perl - Makefile.PL"). [Requested by Guillaume Rousse] - - - Test::Harness has changed its output format in recent versions, - which threw off one of our tests. We now allow for this different - format. [Reported by Scott Godin] - - - Fixed an issue that prevented Module::Build from upgrading itself - using its own API (which is how CPANPLUS uses it). There are still - some issues with this solution, however. See ticket #13169 in - rt.cpan.org. [Reported by Jos Boumans] - - - Fixed a fatal error that occurred when a distribution's author - could not be determined from its POD nor from the call to - Module::Build->new() in its Build.PL. See ticket #12318 in - rt.cpan.org. [Reported by Jos Boumans] - - - Apparently on Windows and cygwin it's not possible to use the "-pi" - switch to perl without a backup extension, so now we use ".bak" and - remove the backup file when we're done. Thus the "dist" action for - Module::Build itself can now be run on those platforms. [Yitzchak - Scott-Thoennes] - - - Improved the handling of auto_features in the config_data access - script. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - -0.27_01 (Beta for 0.28) Fri Apr 15 21:12:57 CDT 2005 - - Backward-incompatible (but better) changes: - - * When using the 'install_base' option to choose a directory for - installing everything, perl modules now go into lib/perl5/ instead - of just lib/. It seems this is more consistent with people's - expectations, and the way I had it before was a bit peculiar to the - way I like things in my own home directory. [Michael Schwern] - - * When the user is using the 'install_base' option, scripts will now - be installed by default in $install_base/bin/ rather than - $install_base/script/ . [Jan Hudec and Michael Schwern] - - Major changes: - - - The auto_features mechanism will now re-evaluate dependencies every - time feature() is called for an auto-feature, rather than freezing - the success/failure value during 'perl Build.PL' and using that - value for all eternity (or module update, whichever comes first). - This applies to both $build->feature() and - FooModule::ConfigData->feature() calls. [Requested by many] - - - Added the meta_add and meta_merge mechanisms, which let the module - author add/merge arbitrary entries into the META.yml file. - - - Now reads per-action default options from '$ENV{HOME}/.modulebuildrc' - if it exists. Command line options override anything set in the rc file. - - - We now use ExtUtils::CBuilder to do all compiling of C code (for - example, when compiling XS modules). - - - The creation of Unix man pages is no longer a strict necessity - it - has now been turned into an 'auto-feature' contingent on the - presence of Pod::Man and a location specified for man pages to go. - - - A user-specified 'install_path' setting will now take precedence - over an 'install_base' setting. This allows the user to use - 'install_base' to set the base for all elements in one go, and then - use 'install_path' to override specific paths or add paths for - additional kinds of targets. - - - Split the main documentation from 'Module/Build.pm' into two - sections. The user level documentation and overview remains in - 'Module/Build.pm', while a new document, - 'Module/Build/Authoring.pod', has been created for module authors. - - Minor changes: - - - new_from_context() was losing its arguments in some cases (and not - because of inadequate training in forensic debate) - we now pass its - arguments directly to the Build.PL script rather than merging them - in afterwards. - - - Let resume() return an object blessed into the appropriate class - if the user has provided a subclass, as specified by the - 'build_class' property. This allows current() and new_from_context() - to behave more like factory methods returning objects of the correct - class based on context. [Ray Zimmerman] - - - Refactored methods relating to parsing perl module files for - package, version, and pod data into a new class: - Module::Build::ModuleInfo. It should not be considered part of - Module::Build's API, because we may split it out entirely as a - separate CPAN module that we depend on. - - - Added new method Module::Build::prepare_metadata() for authors to - override in order to add custom fields to META.yml. - - - We now use Test::More for our regression tests. If the user - doesn't have it installed, we include a copy in t/lib/ that we can - use during testing. - - - When copying files in the 'distdir' action, set permissions to match - the original files. [Julian Mehnle] - - - When adding files like META.yml to the MANIFEST, we now tell the - user we're doing so by printing one of the "Added to MANIFEST: ..." - lines. [Ron Savage] - - - Added a runtime_params() method, which lets a module author see - which parameters were overridden by the user on the command line - (or in whatever paradigm the user originally invoked Module::Build - from). [David Wheeler] - - - Added the current_action() method, which, surprisingly, returns the - name of the currently running action. [David Wheeler] - - - Added docs for run_perl_script(). - - - Added some stuff to the docs about why PREFIX is unsupported, and - what to use instead. [Steve Purkis] - - - The simple get/set accessor methods for all the 'parameters' like - verbose(), license(), etc. now have auto-generated documentation in - Module/Build.pm. - - - Created a Cookbook entry for 'Adding new elements to the install - process' - - - We now add META.yml to the MANIFEST when META.yml is created, not - when MANIFEST is created. [Spotted by Ron Savage] - - - Added some additional patterns to the suggested MANIFEST.SKIP - contents, and changed the docs so that we encourage the user to use - the MANIFEST.SKIP. [Ron Savage] - - - Eliminated a redundant recipe from the Cookbook, now that there are - some more extensive recipes on how to add stuff to the - build/install sequences. - - - Eliminated an undefined-variable warning when testing under perl 5.005 - - - When building HTML documentation, 'html_backlink' and 'html_css' - properties are now first-class properties, so they can be set from - the command line. [Suggested by Sagar R. Shah] - - - Have script_files default to everything in bin. I believe this is - the least surprising behavior. [Suggested by Michael Schwern] - - - If script_files is given a directory, consider each file in that - directory tree as a script to be installed. This avoids having to - remember to add to the script_files list every time you add a - program. [Suggested by Michael Schwern] - - - We now only load Pod::Man when we actually need to build man pages. - - - We now make Test::Harness use our carefully-selected path to a perl - executable regardless of Test::Harness's version. Previously we - let it figure stuff out for itself if it was a reasonably modern - version, but it's safer to make sure we're using the same perl - everywhere. - -0.2610 Fri Apr 15 08:25:01 CDT 2005 - - - new_from_context() was losing its arguments in some cases (and not - because of inadequate training in debate) - we now pass its - arguments directly to the Build.PL script rather than merging them - in afterwards. [Ray Zimmerman] - - - Fixed a bug in which config_data and feature data were being - forgotten and no ConfigData.pm module would get written. [Ray - Zimmerman] - - - Added a recipe to the cookbook showing how to run a single test - file from the command line. [William McKee] - - - For command-line arguments, we now accept the syntax "--foo=bar" in - addition to "--foo bar" and "foo=bar". This seems to fit well with - what GNU getopt and Getopt::Long do, and with people's - expectations. [Adam Spiers] - -0.2609 Wed Mar 16 22:18:35 CST 2005 - - - The html docs that were created during the first invokation of - './Build' were being found and treated as pod that needed to be - converted to html during subsequent invokations. We now are more - specific about the directories we scan for pod that needs to be - converted, effectively avoiding blib/html. [Ray Zimmerman] - - - If Pod::Man is not available, we now skip building man pages - (rather than dying) and tell the user why. - - - We now write a .packlist file upon installation, in the same place - that ExtUtils::MakeMaker does. [Johnny Lam] - - - On some Unix platforms (BSD derivatives, mostly) perl's $^X - variable isn't set to the full path of the perl executable, just - 'perl', when the 'Build' script is run as './Build' and not 'perl - ./Build'. This can lead to some other modules (maybe - Test::Harness, maybe IO::File, I dunno...) getting very confused - about where they are, and they try to load stuff from the wrong - perl lib, and big trouble ensues. To fix this, we now set $^X to - the value of Module::Build->find_perl_interpreter(). - - - The 'distcheck' action will now die() if it finds an error in the - MANIFEST, rather than just printing on STDOUT. [David Golden] - - - When the README and/or Makefile.PL are autogenerated using - create_readme or create_makefile_pl, we now automatically make sure - they're also listed in the MANIFEST file. [Suggested by Michael - Schwern] - - - Got rid of the t/MANIFEST file - it's superfluous, and it had - zero-length, which some versions of Tar don't like. [William - Underwood] - - - Added a mention in the documentation that each property that new() - accepts also has a corresponding get/set accessor. (In the version - 0.27_0x series each accessor method is mentioned explicitly in the - docs.) [Omission spotted by Ian Langworth] - -0.2608 Wed Jan 26 19:46:09 CST 2005 - - - Add workaround for test files because Devel::Cover causes - require to fail when the argument to require is an expression - involving File::Spec. We now assign the result of the File::Spec - call to a variable and then call require with that variable. - - - Tilde-expansion is now performed on arguments passed to a - compatibility-Makefile.PL [Spotted by Sam Vilain] - - - We now run the 'gzip' and 'tar' values through split_like_shell() - when running the 'dist' action, so that e.g. the 'gzip' value can - be set to something like "gzip -f --best" and it'll work - correctly. [Spotted by Chris Dolan] - - - Work around some bad mojo between Fedora Core [with its very long - @INC] and old versions of Test::Harness [with its propensity to - compound the number of @INC entries] that produced an "argument - list too long" error during testing. [assisted by Ville Skytta, - David Golden, & Randy Sims] - - - Killed an infinite loop that would happen in y_n() in interactive - mode if the author provided no default value. [Max Maischein] - -0.2607 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Sat Dec 18 14:14:09 CST 2004 - - - Instead of freezing @INC in the 'Build' script to the value it had - when Build.PL was run, we now just add those additional values that - aren't part of the default compiled-in @INC. [Michael Schwern] - - - The run_perl_script() method will now propagate any extra entries - in @INC (such as those added by "use lib" or the -I command-line - switch) to the subprocess. This helps situations in which you want - to tell the subprocess where to find a certain module, for - instance. [Michael Schwern] - -0.2606 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Tue Dec 7 22:33:11 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a linking bug on Win32, in which compiled C code object files - never got linked in with the modules being built. [Dominic - Mitchell] - - - Fixed a bug in the new_from_context() method in which any arguments - passed made us die. [Spotted by Jos Boumans] - -0.2605 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Tue Nov 30 07:16:13 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a bug in which zero-length arguments for hash-valued - parameters (e.g. " --config foo= ") weren't being allowed. - - - The tests now play better with environments in which version.pm is - pre-loaded, like in bleadperl. [John Peacock & Michael Schwern] - - - Fixed a syntax error in one of the tests under perl 5.005. - -0.2604 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Wed Nov 17 14:32:42 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a split_like_shell() bug introduced in 0.2603 for Windows, in - which an array reference passed as an argument was returned as an - array reference, rather than as a list. [Spotted by Steve Hay] - - - module_name() will now return '' instead of undef when module_name - is not set. This eliminates a couple uninitialized-value - warnings. [Suggested by Michael Schwern] - - - The expand_test_dir() method will now skip dotfiles (like ._foo.t, - which sometimes gets automatically created on Mac systems) when - 'recursive_test_files' is in effect. [Tom Insam] - -0.2603 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Mon Nov 15 10:28:00 CST 2004 - - - Added documentation for the new_from_context() method. - - - Completely rewrote the split_like_shell() method for the Windows - platform so it works like the command.com shell. [Randy Sims] - -0.2602 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Thu Nov 4 11:19:29 CST 2004 - - - The two bug fixes in 0.2601 gnashed against each other incorrectly, - resulting in a Win32 bug in split_like_shell(). Fixed. [Spotted - by Steve Hay & Randy Sims] - - - Removed a couple of 'use warnings' statements from the code - they - were causing compile failures on 5.005_04, where warnings.pm isn't - available. [Blair Zajac] - -0.2601 (Bug fix release in 0.26 series) Wed Nov 3 20:09:27 CST 2004 - - - Fixed some backslash problems with split_like_shell() on - Win32. [Steve Hay] - - - 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] - -0.26 Sat Oct 9 17:51:01 CDT 2004 - - - Removed some language from the Module::Build::Compat documentation - that encouraged people to include a Build.PL without a Makefile.PL. - Also changed "a replacement for MakeMaker" to "an alternative to - MakeMaker" in the main documentation, which is basically what I - meant all along (i.e. a replacement for MakeMaker in your - particular build process - MakeMaker is never going to be fully - replaced in the perl world at large, of course), but some people - got the impression I was a little more truculent toward MakeMaker - than I really am. - - - Added the formal concepts of "features" and "config data" for - distributions. This allows the module author to define a certain - set of features that the user can switch on and off (usually - according to whether they have the proper prerequisites for them), - and to save build-time configuration information in a standardized - format. See the main documentation of Module::Build for more - details. (Note that the name of this system was called - "BuildConfig" for a while in beta, but now it's called - "ConfigData".) - - - Added an 'auto_features' capability, which simplifies the process - of defining features that depend on a set of prerequisites. - - - Added the 'get_options' parameter, which lets module authors - declare certain command-line arguments their Build.PL can accept - [David Wheeler] - - - 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. - - - Added a 'testpod' action, which checks the syntactic validity of - all POD files in the distribution using Test::Pod. This eliminates - the need for doing so in a regression test. [Initial patch by Mark - Stosberg] - - - Added a process_files_by_extension() method, which generalizes the - kind of processing (essentially just copying) that happens for .pm - and .pod files, and makes it available to other user-defined types - of files. See the new cookbook entry. - - - Improved compatibility with version.pm when authors are using - version objects as their $VERSION variables. Now - version_from_file() can deal with these objects. Currently we - stringify them right away, but perhaps in the future we will - preserve them as objects for a while. - - - During 'distdir' and 'distmeta' actions, die a bit more gracefully - if there's no MANIFEST (i.e. explicitly say that a MANIFEST is - required). [Spotted by Adrian Howard] - - - Eliminated a recursive dependency between creating the MANIFEST - file and creating the META.yml file. [Spotted by Dave Rolsky] - - - On Win32, where a single directory might be known variously as - "Module-Build-0.25_03" or "MODULE~1.25_", we now use - Win32::GetShortPathName($cwd) to verify that the 'Build' script is - being run from the correct directory, rather than just a string - comparison. - - - The add_to_cleanup() method will now accept glob()-style patterns - in addition to explicit filenames. Also documented the fact that - they can be specified in either Unix-style or native-style - notation. - - - Passing a PREFIX value to a pass-through Makefile 'make install' - now has the same effect as passing it to 'perl Makefile.PL' (it - dies with a helpful message). - - - Added the 'testcover' action, which runs a test suite using - Devel::Cover. [Dave Rolsky] - - - Added the 'lib' and 'arch' installation directories to the search - path for the 'diff' action, since they won't necessarily (though - they usually will) be in @INC at installation time. [Suggested by - Kevin Baker] - - - The "=head3" POD directive isn't supported in older podlators - (particularly Pod::Man), so we don't use it anymore. - - - Fixed a typo & improved the docs in the SUBCLASSING section. [Ron - Savage] - - - Added the '.tmp' suffix to the default MANIFEST.SKIP file, which - should avoid adding things like pod2htmi.tmp to the MANIFEST [Ron - Savage] - - - Backup files from Emacs, containing the string '.#' in their names, - should no longer find their way into the blib/ directory (and from - there into installation directories). - - - Worked around an unpleasant interaction between version.pm and the - version-checking code that makes sure Module::Build's version - hasn't changed during the lifetime of the 'Build' script. [Reported - by Trevor Schellhorn] - - - Fixed a problem in htmlify_pods() that would produce test failures - on Cygwin (and probably elsewhere). [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - Fixed a test failure on Cygwin (and probably elsewhere) in - t/compat.t, resulting from empty environment variables being set to - the empty string (as opposed to simply being unset) by their mere - presence in the "EXPORT:" list. - - - Fixed a fatal error that occurred when the author specified - 'dist_author' manually in their Build.PL script. [Spotted by Ron - Savage] - - - The 'provides' section of the META.yml file wasn't being built - properly on Win32, because of a mismatch between URL-format and - native-format pathnames. Fixed. [Reported by Robert Rothenberg] - - - The progress message "lib/Foo.xs -> lib/Foo.c" was previously being - output even when the Foo.c file wasn't being rebuilt. It's now - fixed. - - - Fixed a couple of places in Compat.pm where it could have forgotten - which perl interpreter it had been run with ($^X isn't very - trustworthy). - - - On some systems, the way we updated the timestamp on the - "lib/Foo.bs" file (one of the output files for XS-based modules) - was failing. It's been replaced by a simple call to utime(). - - - Fixed a problem in t/compat.t that prevented it from being run - individually using 'make test TEST_FILES=t/compat.t'. The problem - was that a couple environment variables (TEST_FILES, MAKEFLAGS) - were being passed through to subprocesses, and confused them. - - - Fixed an important typo in the documentation for the 'install_base' - parameter ('libdoc' and 'bindoc' were switched). [Ray Zimmerman] - - - The pass-through Makefiles (type 'small' or 'passthrough') now - support the TEST_FILES parameter to 'make test'. - - - Fixed a fatal error that would occur on perl 5.005 when building - HTML documentation, because its version of Pod::Html was old and - didn't like some of the parameters we fed it. [Spotted by Blair - Zajac] - - - The final line of the generated pass-through Makefile was missing - its trailing newline, which is now fixed. [Chip Salzenberg] - - - We now depend on YAML version at least 0.35 and at most version - 0.49, so that we don't pick up a new (and backward-incompatible) beta - version from CPAN. - - - Squashed a warning in t/basic.t about '"Foo::Module::VERSION" used - only once', and one in PPMMaker about $^V being undefined. [Blair - Zajac] - - - Added a couple temporary output files from HTML documentation - generation to the cleanup list. [Toby Ovod-Everett] - - - The PodParser module will now only extract paragraphs in the - 'AUTHOR' section of the pod if they contain an '@' character. This - tends to do a better job, heuristically speaking, of returning - relevant stuff. - - - Added regression tests and a helper method ( add_build_elements() ) - for adding new elements to the build process. Also some - documentation. - - - Wrote a recipe in the Cookbook for adding new elements to the build - process, and a recipe for changing the order in which the steps in - the build process will occur. - -0.25 Sun Apr 25 11:12:36 CDT 2004 - - - During the 'distdir' action, if no MANIFEST.SKIP file exists, we - will now create a reasonable default one. [Randy Sims] - - - In Makefile compatibility mode, some arguments (like UNINST, - TEST_VERBOSE, etc.) given to 'make' are now recognized and passed - through to Module::Build. [Randy Sims] - - - The regression tests now make sure that several pass-through - Makefile.PL parameters are dealt with correctly. - - - Added support for the 'LIB' parameter to passthrough - Makefile.PLs. [Spotted by Jesse Erlbaum] - - - Passing a 'PREFIX' parameter to a passthrough Makefile.PL was - supposed to make it die with a helpful error message, but instead - it just ignored it and blindly tried to install to the wrong place. - This is now fixed. [Spotted by Jesse Erlbaum] - - - Added an extra_compiler_flags() accessor method. - - - If the 'recursive_test_files' option was turned on, the test files - weren't sorted, but returned in an apparently random order. Now - they're sorted. [Martyn Peck] - - - Documented the 'tar' and 'gzip' parameters to the 'dist' and - 'ppmdist' actions. - - - The generation of HTML documentation now works (it was accidentally - partially implemented with an itchy patch-application finger in - 0.24). [Randy Kobes] - - - Fixed a fatal bug when building META.yml with YAML.pm and - 'dynamic_config' is set. [Reported by Jaap Karssenberg] - - - Fixed some incorrect error messages that occurred when - compiling/linking C sources went awry. - - - If the author uses a custom builder subclass, that subclass will - now be loaded correctly in the passthrough Makefile.PL if the - author uses the 'small' or 'passthrough' Makefile.PL options in - Module::Build::Compat. [Martyn Peck and Jaap Karssenberg] - - - If the author uses a custom builder subclass created dynamically - through the subclass() method, passthrough Makefile.PLs (of type - 'passthrough' or 'small') didn't work properly, because the custom - builder module wouldn't be loaded at the right time. This has been - fixed. [Reported by Toby Ovod-Everett] - - - In M::B-generated 'traditional' Makefile.PLs, the entries in - 'PREREQ_PM' are now sorted ASCIIbetically rather than randomly. - - - The install_types() method will now return any additional types - given as 'install_path' arguments, as well as all elements of the - current 'install_sets' entry. This makes it easier to add new - types of installable objects to the mix. - - - As a consequence of the previous change, there is no longer any - need to have an explicit 'install_types' data member, so it has - been removed. - - - In the second example code for the Module::Build->subclass() - method, the Module::Build module needed to be loaded before calling - its methods. [John Peacock] - - - Fixed minor error in the POD structure of Module::Build and - Module::Build::Platform::VMS docs. - - -0.24 Wed Feb 25 15:57:00 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a problem with incude_dirs not being propagated to the 'ccs' - file when compiling XS files on Win32. [Randy Sims and Steve Hay] - - - In 0.23, Module::Build::Compat->fake_makefile() started choking - when no 'build_class' parameter was supplied in the Makefile.PL. - Since these Makefile.PLs still exist on CPAN, we now default - 'build_class' to 'Module::Build', which was the old 0.22 behavior - anyway. [Reported by Martin Titz and Jeremy Seitz] - - - Added documentation for the 'include_dirs' parameter to - new(). [Steve Hay] - - - Changed the no-op command on Win32 from 'rem' to 'rem>nul' inside - pass-through Makefiles. [Randy Sims] - - - The 'autosplit' parameter now accepts an array reference if - multiple files should be split. [Jaap Karssenberg] - - - find_perl_interpreter() will now use $^X (if absolute), $ENV{PATH} - (if $^X isn't absolute), and $Config{perlpath}, in that order. - Also, we now make darn sure the result is the same version of perl, - by checking Config::myconfig() for a match against the current - perl. [Reported by Edward Sabol] - - - Fixed a fatal error on Win32 (and any other platform that doesn't - define an installation location for Unix-style man pages) during - installation. - -0.23 Sun Feb 8 22:01:18 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a compatibility problem in pass-through Makefiles (created by - Module::Build::Compat). Some 'make' utilities (for example, BSD - make) didn't like a '@' by itself on a line, so we stole some - 'NOOP' code from MakeMaker to fix it. [Reported by Mathieu Arnold] - - - Added a 'ppm_dist' action, which just makes the PPD file and then - makes a tarball out of the blib/ directory. [Randy Sims] - - - The @INC of the parent process is now propagated to child processes - when processing *.PL files. [Reported by Jaap Karssenberg] - - - We now only attempt to fix the shebang line on a script if the - shebang line matches the regex /perl/i . This fixes some instances - where people put shell scripts in their distributions. [Jaap - Karssenberg] - - - We no longer generate a 'requires', 'recommends', 'conflicts', - etc. entry in the META.yml file if there's no data to go in it. - - - Added a documentation reference to Michael Schwern's wiki for tips - on conversion from MakeMaker to M::B. [Randy Sims] - - - If there are script_files, we now add EXE_FILES to the - 'traditional' Makefile.PL generated by M::B::Compat. [Suggested by - Yuval Kogman] - - - Documented the 'test_files' parameter to new(). [Reported by Tony - Bowden] - - - Fixed a problem in "Build help <action>", which didn't find the - correct help chunk if <action> was the final element in a POD - list. [Jaap Karssenberg] - - - Fixed a problem in the get_action_docs() method which gave - incorrect results if the method was called more than once in the - same program. - - - Fixed a problem in which actions defined by user subclasses - wouldn't be available via the pass-through Makefiles created by - Module::Build::Compat. [Reported by Jaap Karssenberg] - - - We now use Data::Dumper instead of our own ad-hoc serialization - routines to create the 'traditional' Makefile.PL - arguments. [Suggested by Yuval Kojman] - -0.22 Sat Jan 10 22:05:39 CST 2004 - - - On Unixish platforms, the syntax "FOO=BAR /bin/baz arg arg" now - works when present in $Config{ld}. This solves a problem on Mac OS - X 10.3. [Reported by Adam Foxson] - - - The have_c_compiler() now also tests whether the linker seems to - work too. - - - Fixed a problem with creating the distribution tarball in which - permissions would usually be all read-only. We now use our own - file-copying routines rather than those in ExtUtils::Manifest, - because those do some annoying extra permissions-setting stuff for - no apparent reason. It makes me happy that this was a very very - easy patch to make. [Reported by Thomas Klausner] - - - The compile_c() method now includes $Config{cccdlflags} in its - command invocation. It's usually empty, but not always, so we - didn't notice for a while. [Richard Clamp] - - - On some platforms it's common to have a $Config{make} defined, but - no 'make' utility actually available. We now detect this and skip - some 'make' compatibility tests. [Randy Sims] - - - Fixed a spurious testing failure on non-Unix platforms that - happened because we accidentally call localize_file_path() on empty - strings in the test suite. [Spotted by Randy Sims on Windows] - - - Made the 'name', 'abstract', 'author', and 'version' properties - required when building a PPD file. [Spotted by Randy Sims, Dave - Rolsky, & Glenn Linderman] - - - When building a 'traditional' Makefile.PL with - Module::Build::Compat, we now use 'VERSION_FROM' when possible, - rather than always using 'VERSION'. This way the Makefile.PL - doesn't have to get modified every release. - - - Made some fixups to the 'PPM' info-file, improving compatibility - with ActiveState's PPM tools. [Randy Sims, Glenn Linderman] - - - The 'dist_author' property can now accept multiple authors, see the - docs for more info. [Randy Sims] - - - If the user doesn't have YAML.pm installed during ACTION_dist, we - now create a minimal YAML.pm anyway, without any dependency - information. - - - The 'distribution_type' field is no longer created in META.yml - files, in accordance with the finding made at the London CLPAN - meeting that it's essentially meaningless and ill-defined. - - - The 'dist' action now accepts an optional 'tar' parameter to use a - system utility for building the tarball, and a 'gzip' parameter for - compressing it. If these are used, Archive::Tar won't be invoked. - This was added because Archive::Tar is producing some very - non-cross-platform tarballs that many tar utilities can't handle. - - - During testing, if YAML.pm isn't installed, then we won't try - making a tarball either, since this would invoke YAML to create the - META.yml file. - - - Fixed a problem with chmod() being called incorrectly on MacOS - (i.e. MacPerl, not Mac OS X). [Spotted by Paul Sanford Toney] - - - Fixed a problem with the --config flag not being treated properly - (essentially ignored) on the command line for 'perl Build.PL' or - 'Build <action>'. [Spotted by Jakub Bogusz] - - - Added a new config() method to get at the Build object's notion of - the %Config hash. - - - Test::Harness is starting to contend for the Most Crotchety Module - Award. Work around a few of its nits when setting harness - switches. [Spotted by Diab Jerius] - - - Now the Build script will die() if we're run from the wrong - directory, rather than trying to chdir() to what it thinks is the - right directory and do its work there. See - https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4039 . [Chris Dolan] - - - Changed the manpage separator on OS/2 to '.'. [Ilya Zakharevich] - - - On OS/2, disable C compilation, since apparently it isn't working - there. [Reported by Ilya Zakharevich] - - - Inserted a comment into auto-generated Makefile.PLs saying it was - auto-generated. [Randy Sims] - - - Fixed some annoying behavior in generated passthrough Makefile.PLs - when the user chose not to install Module::Build, or if - installation failed. [Reported by Ilya Zakharevich and Richard - Clamp] - - - Moved the documentation for 'codebase' to the section where it's - relevant. [Randy Sims, Glenn Linderman] - - - Fixed a have_c_compiler() failure on some platforms, we now define - a boot_compilet() function (since we're compiling a library, not an - executable). [Randy Sims] - - - Added a recipe to the Module::Build::Cookbook describing how to - maintain compatibility with older versions of CPAN.pm [Jim Cromie] - - - Removed caveat about "looking for alternatives" in how hashes are - specified on the command line, since an alternative has been found. - - - Previously most warnings about optional prerequisites looked like - they were actually error messages about required prerequisites. - This has been corrected. [Reported again by Sagar Shah] - - - Added support for building XS (and C in general) stuff on AIX. - This was done by a small reorganization of prelink_c() method from - Windows.pm to Build.pm, and it is only invoked for the platforms - that need it invoked. AIX also massages some very naughty bits - (MakeMaker macro variables) in $Config{lddlflags} that should never - have been put there, but alas, they're there, so we find & resolve - them. - - - Added OS/2 ($^O = 'os2') to the list of Unix-like platforms. This - basically means that most platform-specific operations will be done - in a Unix-like manner. - - - Pass-through Makefiles will now die() when they're given a PREFIX - parameter, and suggest using 'destdir' or 'install_base' instead. - Previously they just ignored the parameter and tried to install to - the default location, which is clearly not what the user wanted. - - - Updated my email address in the documentation to a more recent - variant. - - - Add NetBSD to the list of Unix-like systems. [Adrian Bunk] - - - Add SVR5 to the list of Unix-like systems. [Rafael Garcia-Suarez] - - - We now use Pod::Parser to find the ABSTRACT and AUTHOR when it's - available on the system. [initial patch by Randy Sims] - - - Fixed a little scalar/list buglet in a documentation example. - -0.21 Wed Oct 15 20:47:05 CDT 2003 - - - Added a have_c_compiler() method. - - - Added documentation for the requires(), recommends(), - build_requires(), and conflicts() methods. - - - On Unix platforms, we now create the "Build" script with a #! line - matching the perl interpreter that was used to invoke the Build.PL - script, rather than whatever is in $Config{startperl}. This avoids - a potential warning about the interpreters not matching. [Spotted - by Ken Y. Clark] - - - The Unix version now uses the safer multi-argument form of system() - when building distribution tarballs. - - - Added a regression test for the 'dist' action to the t/runthrough.t - test. - - - Fixed a problem with File::Spec usage when creating the names of - 'libdoc' manual pages - the code wasn't dealing with the volume or - file portions correctly on certain platforms. - - - When creating the names of the 'libdoc' manual pages, we no longer - assume that pods are under the hard-coded paths 'blib/lib' or - 'blib/arch'. - - - Fixed a crashing bug that could sometimes occur when the - distribution contained no 'lib' directory. [Chris Dolan] - - - Fixed a crashing bug that happened when the user had .PL files in - the lib/ directory and didn't explicitly name them in a hash - reference to the new() constructor. [Chris Reinhardt, bug #4036] - - - .PL files are now passed the names of their target file(s) on the - command line when they run. - - - When YAML.pm wasn't installed, t/runthrough.t wasn't properly - skipping some tests that required YAML. This is now fixed. - [Stephen J. Smith] - - - Added documentation for the dist_version() and dist_name() - methods. [Spotted by Johan Vromans] - - - Existing values in $ENV{HARNESS_PERL_SWITCHES} are now respected - and not squashed when we run the 'test' action. [Paul Johnson] - - - On cygwin, the separator string for manual page names has been set - to '.'. Previously it was '::', inherited from Unix. [Yitzchak - Scott-Thoennes] - - - Avoid a warning when Build.PL is run (i.e. when the new() method is - called) and no MANIFEST file exists. [Michael Schwern and Kevin - Ruscoe] - - - Added documentation for the 'code' and 'docs' actions. [Steve - Purkis and Mark Stosberg] - - - The internal method compile_support_files() has been renamed to - process_support_files() in order to make it consistent with other - processing methods. Note that it was never documented using the - old name. It's still not documented, actually. Maybe later. - - - Skip the 'write' pseudo-entry in the 'diff' action's installation - map. [Chris Dolan] - - - Fixed a bug in which notes() set in the Build.PL before - create_build_script() was called would get lost unless more notes() - were also set afterwards. [Spotted by Dave Rolsky] - - - The process of building elements of the distribution is now driven - by a list of build elements, paving the way for letting people add - their own types of build elements in future versions of - Module::Build (or in the current version with some difficulty). - - - Fixed some linking errors on Cygwin. [Randy Sims, Terrence Brannon] - - - Fixed a line-ending problem with detecting the dist_abstract - properly on Cygwin. [Randy Sims] - - - Fixed a problem with signatures that occurred if 'distsign' was - called before 'distdir' - the signature would be generated twice. - - - Added a 'create_readme' parameter to new(), which will use - Pod::Text to generate a README from the main (dist_version_from) - module file during the 'distdir' action. - - - We now refuse to run the 'Build' script if it was created using a - different version of Module::Build. This has caused a couple of - nasty bugs in the past, I don't want to know what it would cause in - the future. - - - Documentation for do_system() has been added. [Dave Rolsky] - - - run_perl_script() is now available as a class method, though it - will need to (re-)find the perl interpreter in this case. - - - Added a new_from_context() method that authors of automated tools - like CPANPLUS and CPAN can use instead of running all tasks as - sub-processes. We also use it in the regression tests for - Module::Build itself. ** Note that this method is currently - undocumented because its name may change in the future. ** - - - When signing distributions with Module::Signature, we now - automatically add the SIGNATURE file to the MANIFEST, avoiding an - unpleasant chicken/egg problem for the module author. - [unpleasantness spotted by sungo] - - - In Module::Build::Compat, added support for the 'verbose' parameter - to Makefile.PL [spotted by Soren Andersen, fixed by Michael - Schwern] - - - The Module::Build distribution now has a cryptographic 'SIGNATURE' - file created by Module::Signature. - - - Added proper documentation for the subclass() method. [spotted by - Jonathan Steinert] - - - Worked around a Config.pm bug in Red Hat 9 which prevented man - pages from being installed in the correct places. [spotted by Ville - Skytta] - - - Fixed a Module::Build::Compat bug in which setting INSTALLDIRS - caused a crash. [spotted by Ilya Martynov] - -0.20 Tue Aug 26 14:34:07 CDT 2003 - - - Separated the 'build' action into two separate actions, 'code' and - 'docs'. This is similar to MakeMaker's separation of the 'all' - target into 'pure_all' and 'manifypods'. This fixes a permissions - hassle in which doing 'sudo Build install' would often create local - doc files that needed superuser permissions to delete. - - - Enhanced the 'help' action - 'Build help foo' will now show the POD - documentation for the 'foo' action. - - - Added a notes() feature, which helps share data transparently - between the Build.PL and t/*.t scripts. - - - The installation process will now create man(1) and man(3) pages - from POD in modules & scripts, and install them. We don't build - man pages when there's nowhere to install them, such as on some - Win32 or most Mac systems. [large patch by Steve Purkis, 5.005 fix - by Mathieu Arnold] - - - The 'distdir' action now copies files to the distribution - directory, rather than making them hard links to the original - files. This allows authors to do last-minute alterations of the - files without affecting the originals. [Dave Rolsky] - - - If the author uses XS files in nonstandard locations, the copied - versions of those files will now be cleaned up properly. - - - In invoking the 'test' action or invoking 'xsubpp', we now use the - same perl executable as we use everywhere else, rather than blindly - using $^X or $Config{perlpath} (neither of which are very - reliable). - - - Fixed a problem with the 'install_path' parameter given to - 'Build.PL' being lost in subsequent actions. [Reported by Mathieu - Arnold] - - - Fixed yet another bug with installation directories, in which the - 'install_base' parameter wasn't being respected on the command - line. [Spotted by Jonathan Swartz] - - - Changed the way the depends_on() method works inside action - subroutines - now each action will only run once per dispatch() - invocation (similar to how perl's require() function works). This - helps avoid some difficult problems with dependency loops. - - - Changed the documentation for the 'autosplit' parameter to give - reasons why it may not be a good idea to use, but no longer - threaten to remove it. [Suggested by Martyn J. Pearce] - - - Improved the formatting of the 'traditional' Makefile.PL generated - by Module::Build::Compat->create_makefile_pl. [Michael Schwern] - - - The 'traditional' Makefile.PL will now use the 'module_name' - parameter (as NAME) if it's available, otherwise it will continue - to use the 'dist_name' (as DISTNAME). [Michael Schwern] - - - Created read/write accessor methods for all our 'properties'. - [Michael Schwern] - - - The 'test_files' parameter can now be specified using glob() syntax - (i.e. 't/*.t'), and the corresponding test_files() method is now a - read/write accessor. - - - The location of the 'blib' directory is now a property of the Build - object - nobody is likely to notice this change, with any luck, but - it makes the design and code cleaner. - - - The 'disttest' and 'distsign' methods now chdir() back to the - directory where they started, rather than to the base_dir of the - build. - - - Improved comparisons of version strings containing underscore - characters (indicating "beta" status). [Steve Purkis] - - - Added documentation for the 'dist_author', 'dist_abstract', and - 'codebase' parameters to new(), and for the 'ppd' action. [Dave - Rolsky] - - - Added documentation for the up_to_date() and contains_pod() - methods. [Dave Rolsky] - - - 'traditional' pass-through Makefile.PLs will now contain an - INSTALLDIRS parameter matching the Build.PL's 'installdirs' - setting. - - - version_from_file() now ignores $VERSION variables that are defined - in POD or comments. It can still be tricked by $VERSIONs in string - literals, though. [Steve Purkis] - - - The code to find packages in module files now uses Steve's scanning - method (above) to skip package-declaration-lookalikes in POD or - comments. - - - The 'disttest' action will now propagate its @INC settings to its - subprocesses. - -0.19 Wed Jul 9 22:34:02 CDT 2003 - - - Added support for the 'install_path' parameter, which allows custom - specification of where things should be installed. This is a major - improvement to Module::Build's functionality. - - - Added the 'install_base' parameter. Provides an easy way to - install to local or alternative directory trees. - - - We now install scripts by default to $Config{installsitebin} - instead of $Config{installscript}. Neither is a great choice, but - the former is likely to be [analogous to] /usr/local/bin, and the - latter is likely to be [something like] /usr/bin . If/when there's - a $Config{installsitescript}, we'll start using that automatically. - - - Fixed a problem on Win32 in which C and XS files wouldn't be - compiled properly, and the user would see an error about 'Can't - locate object method "format_compiler_cmd"'. - (http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2391) - - - We now use the correct perl interpreter (via - Module::Build->find_perl_interpreter) in pass-through makefiles. - - - The t/compat.t test now uses $Config{make} instead of just 'make' - to test makefile compatibility. This fixes some failures on Win32. - We also skip this test entirely if no make utility is available. - - - Alternative distribution layouts are now supported via the - 'pm_files', 'pod_files', 'xs_files', 'PL_files', and 'script_files' - parameters to new(). This should help people transition from - MakeMaker, and might even help us write an automatic transition - tool. - - - Added tests to t/runthrough.t that check to see installation is - happening correctly. - - - Added experimental code to build a .ppd file, in support of - ActiveState's "Perl Package Manager". [original patch by Dave - Rolsky] - - - For authors who use Module::Signature to sign their distributions, - we now create the SIGNATURE file right in the distribution - directory, rather than creating it in the top-level directory and - copying it into place. This solves problems related to having - files get out of date with respect to their signatures. - - - We now don't depend on Module::Info to scan for packages during the - 'dist' action anymore, because it's way too aggressive about - loading other modules that you may not want loaded. We now just - (ick, yuck) scan the .pm files with a regular expression to find - "package Foo::Bar;" statements. - - - Silenced some annoying copyright/logo output from Microsoft 'nmake' - during Makefile compatibility testing. [Randy W. Sims] - - - Command-line arguments may now either be specified using the syntax - '--foo foovalue' as well as the traditional syntax 'foo=foovalue'. - The former is often more convenient for shell tab-completion when - the value is a filename (as in 'Build test --test_files t/basic.t'). - - - Command-line arguments may now include non-named parameters, which - make some actions more natural. For instance, the 'diff' action - may now be invoked as 'Build diff -u' rather than as - 'Build diff flags=-u'. - - - Pass-through Makefile.PLs now convert unknown Makefile.PL - parameters to lower-case and hand them to Build.PL, rather than - ignoring them. This means we only have to account for the - differences in the interface, not the entire interface, in - translating parameters. - - - We now issue a warning & don't proceed if asked to make a distdir - and there's no MANIFEST or it's empty. - - - Moved INSTALL to INSTALL.txt to increase compatibility with various - odd versions of 'make' during 'make install' on case-insensitive - filesystems (like nmake on Win32, often). Only affects the - Makefile compatibility layer. [reported by Andrew Savige] - - - Module::Build->known_actions() now works as a class method. - - - Pass-through makefiles now list each action individually rather - than using a ".DEFAULT" catch-all. This improves compatibility - with 'nmake' on Win32, and probably some other less common 'make' - dialects. [Andrew Savige] - - - We're now more aggressive about testing the pass-through makefiles, - e.g. making sure they can run 'all' and 'test' targets, and making - sure the Makefile itself actually exists. - - - Fixed a problem with check_installed_status() when installed - version contains non-numeric characters like underscores. - - - Fixed a problem with a bareword 'File::Spec' in one of the test - scripts that caused it not to compile under 5.8.0 (but is fine - under 5.6). - - - Fixed a problem with the 'destdir' installation parameter on - platforms that have volume identifiers in path names (like "C:" on - Win32). The identifier is now stripped from installation - directories before prepending the destdir path. The destdir path - may still have a volume identifier on it. - - - Added an 'add_to_cleanup' parameter to new() that calls - add_to_cleanup() immediately for the given files. - - - The distribution directory (e.g. Sample-Module-0.13/ ) will now be - deleted during the 'clean' or 'realclean' actions. - - - During testing of modules, blib/lib and blib/arch are now added as - absolute paths, not relative. This helps tests that load the - modules at runtime and may change the current working directory - (like Module::Build itself does during testing). - - - The $Config{cc} entry on some people's systems is something like - 'ccache gcc', so we now split that string using split_like_shell(). - [Richard Clamp] - - - Added documentation for 'extra_linker_flags' parameter, and added a - corresponding 'extra_compiler_flags' parameter. [original patch by - Richard Clamp] - - - The pass-through Makefile created by Module::Build::Compat now - supports MakeMaker options like POLLUTE=1 and INC. We also just - warn & skip when we see any unknown MM parameters, rather than - dying. [Dave Rolsky] - - - Fixed an error about how @INC and $ENV{PERL5LIB} interact during - the testing of M::B itself. [jk <billy2000@fastmail.fm>] - - - The pass-through Makefile doesn't include 'recommended' M::B - dependencies in the Makefile anymore, since they're not strictly - necessary. In particular, this makes installing M::B itself - easier. - - - A new 'create_makefile_pl' parameter lets you use - Module::Build::Compat during the 'distdir' (or 'dist') action to - automatically create a Makefile.PL for compatibility with - ExtUtils::MakeMaker. The parameter's value should be one of the - styles named in the Module::Build::Compat documentation. - - - When compiling C code, we now respect 'pollute' and 'inc' - parameters. (XXX - needs docs) [Dave Rolsky] - - - Made the creation of the "install map" more generic. (XXX - needs - documentation) - - - Fixed a problem in which add_to_cleanup() didn't note cleanup files - unless create_build_script() had been called already. [Dave Rolsky] - - - During 'Build dist', we no longer have to load each .pm file (via - Module::Info) to determine the $VERSION numbers inside. Instead, - we call our internal version_from_file() method, which is the same - thing MakeMaker and PAUSE and search.cpan.org do. Also fixes a - failure when Module::Info is installed in a nonstandard directory. - [reported by Teun Burgers] - - - Fixed some failing test code on Windows - open files can't be - deleted. [Andrew Savige] - - - The Cygwin platform is now treated as a flavor of Unix rather than - a flavor of Windows. [chocolateboy] - - - We're now more aggressive about adding temporary C compilation - files (*.c, *.bs) to the cleanup list. [Dave Rolsky] - - - When constructing the list in META.yml of packages provided by this - distribution, we now use the same rules as the PAUSE scanner does - when a single .pm file contains multiple VERSIONs. [Andreas Koenig] - - - check_installed_status() now works as both a class method and an - object method (and is documented so). [Spotted by Dave Rolsky] - -0.18 Tue Apr 8 13:24:23 CDT 2003 - - - We now rewrite the shebang lines of scripts ourselves, rather than - relying on MakeMaker routines to do it. MakeMaker changed the way - this happened (not the result, but where the code lived) a few - times. [Suggested by Richard Clamp] - - - The scripts() method has changed to script_files(), and likewise - the 'scripts' parameter has changed to 'script_files'. The old - names can still be used for backward compatibility. - - - Support for the 'scripts' parameter (which is now 'script_files') - was broken in 0.17, now it's fixed. [Richard Clamp] - - - We now recommend ExtUtils::ParseXS 2.02, which will fail to load - with perl 5.005 or earlier (which is proper, because it doesn't - work with those versions). When it fails to load, we still fall - back to using the xsubpp script for XS parsing. [spotted by Dave - Rolsky, fix suggested by Richard Clamp] - - - Now works on VMS - the Build script's shebang-line-equivalent - wasn't being formed correctly there - though just about everything - else worked fine. [Tested & patched by Michael Schwern] - - - Eliminated a warning that occurred if 'perl Build.PL' or the - check_installed_status() method was run with -w. [Spotted by - Michael Schwern] - -0.17 Sat Mar 29 18:06:01 CST 2003 - - - Now works under perl 5.005_03. [Richard Clamp] - - - When building blib/ , .PL files are now processed before doing - anything else. This means .PL files can be used in any of the - other contexts. - - - The locating and processing of .pm, .pod, .xs, .PL files and script - files are now isolated into their own methods. This is aimed - toward providing a stable interface for this stuff, so they can be - overridden, parameterized, etc. They're not quite stable yet, - though. - - - The internal lib_to_blib() method has gone away, because processing - is now done by smaller specialized methods. This method had some - duplicate assumptions about filenames that it's nice to get rid of. - - - .PL files are no longer automatically processed in the c_source - directory, they must be specified manually in a 'PL_files' - parameter. - - - Mention in the docs that it's useful to do "PL_FILES => {}" in a - Makefile.PL if you're using both a Makefile.PL and a - Build.PL. [Dom] - - - Add several options to the 'license' field, so that we're in better - sync with PAUSE and CPAN options. [Andreas Koenig] - - - Created a find_perl_interpreter() method that tries to locate the - currently executing perl interpreter. Following a suggestion from - Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org> for Inline, we prefer an absolute - path in $^X, then an existent path in $Config{perlpath}, then - whatever's in $^X. - - - Use the aforementioned perl to run scripts in run_perl_script(). - This fixes the spurious warning "WARNING: Configuration was - initially created with 'foo', but we are now using 'bar'" that - appeared a lot in version 0.16. - - -0.16 Mon Feb 24 13:06:47 CST 2003 - - - All three C compilers that perl supports on Windows environments - (MSVC, BCC, and GCC) are now supported by Module::Build. We now - reportedly pass all tests on Windows. [Randy W. Sims] - - - The test t/xs.t, which tests building of XS modules, will be - skipped if no C compiler is found. [suggested by Randy W. Sims] - - - The "install" action accepts new "destdir" [motivated by Michael - Schwern and Chip Salzenberg] and "uninst" parameters [by Dave - Rolsky]. The former prepends an arbitrary directory to all - installation paths (useful for package management), and the latter - will tell ExtUtils::Install to remove any differing files that are - "shadowing" the stuff you're installing from a different location, - just like MakeMaker's "make install UNINST=1" command will do. - - - Made changes to the generated Makefile in Module::Build::Compat - that much better support Windows platforms [after suggestions by - James Freeman] - - - Added experimental support for creating distribution SIGNATURE - files via Module::Signature. [Dave Rolsky] - - - Added experimental support for installing via the "only.pm" module, - which allows loading specific versions of modules. Since this - module is so new, the interface may still be changing. [Brian - Ingerson] - - - Added support for installing executable scripts, via the 'scripts' - parameter to new(), and the scripts() accessor method. - - - Fix an infinite loop that occurred when doing 'perl Build.PL - config="foo=bar"' - - - Fix up the formatting of the error message the user gets when - prereqs aren't satisfied. - -0.15 Fri Jan 17 15:00:24 CST 2003 - - - In link_c(), extra object files were mistakenly being treated as - output files, not input files, in the up-to-date check. Fixed. - - - In up_to_date(), don't make an unnecessary copy of the file lists - when they're specified as array references. - - - Split off the C compilation phase into its own method, - compile_support_files(), for easier subclassing. - - - Start a stub of a 'manifypods' action. - - - Compiler optimizations weren't being included in C compilation - statements. Fixed. - - - The 'extra_linker_flags' parameter wasn't being honored. Fixed. - - - The 'ccflags' Config.pm entry wasn't being properly split into - separate arguments. Fixed. - - -0.14 Fri Dec 13 14:06:29 AEST 2002 - - - Added support for MacPerl (Mac OS version 9 and below), which (as - far as I know) was never natively supported by MakeMaker. Still - lacks support for the 'test' action (because Test::Harness - requires forking, which MacPerl won't do) and compiling XS/C files - (because I don't know how to invoke a compiler on MacOS, and one - may not even be available). This change is brought to you by - Michael Schwern and the letter '('. - - - Improved processing of .xs files. Now we use the new - ExtUtils::ParseXS module if it's available, otherwise we use - backticks and write the result to a .c file ourselves. This - avoids the need to do cross-platform shell redirection. - - - Make sure all parts of 'Build test' use the not-yet-installed - version of Module::Build. This only affects the tests for this - module, not any of the module code itself. [Spotted by Schwern] - - - Oopsie - use $Config{ld} instead of $Config{cc} for linking. - - - Added a 'diff' action, which is useful for comparing the details - of what you're about to install with what is already installed on - your system. This uses File::Compare, which is in the core. - - - Fixed a problem on Windows in which the _build/ directory wasn't - getting deleted during the 'realclean' action, because we had a - file open in that directory. [Spotted by Michael Schwern] - - - delete_filetree() now always uses File::Path::rmtree(), regardless - of whether the thing being deleted is a file or a directory. This - helps remove things on obscure platforms with strange locking - rules (or even not so obscure ones like MacOS). It also now - reports the number of files or directories deleted (without - recursing directory contents). - - - rm_previous_build_script() is gone, replaced by calls to - delete_filetree(). - - - 'Build' now chdir()s in a BEGIN block, so the 'use Module::Build' - statement will work correctly. Solves a problem on MacOS, where - the 'Build' script may often be invoked from the wrong working - directory. [Fix by Michael Schwern] - - - Internally we now use the multi-argument form of system() to run - external commands (such as 'diff' or 'cc') whenever possible (and - whenever we can't avoid system() altogether). Note that this - means we have to handle splitting some strings (such as - $Config{ccflags}) into argument lists like the shell would, which - is a drag. However, the alternative would be to handle shell - quoting of all arguments to commands ourselves, which is an even - bigger drag across platforms and involves arbitrary filenames and - so on. - - - To handle the argument splitting mentioned above, a method - split_like_shell() has been created. So far it's just doing naive - processing. In practice, I've yet to actually see a %Config entry - that uses quotes & spaces, so the splitting task is usually not - very error-prone. - - - The 'test' action now takes a 'test_files' parameter, similar to - the (undocumented) ExtUtils::MakeMaker TEST_FILES argument. Handy - during development when fixing bugs. - - - Internally, the rscan_dir() method can now accept a predicate - function that decides whether a file/directory should be matched. - - - We now issue a warning message when the author hasn't specified a - license type. - -0.13 Wed Nov 20 20:07:53 AEST 2002 - - - 'cleanup' file lists are now written immediately, rather than at - program termination. This helps avoid "phantom files" that don't - get handled by the 'realclean' action. The internal - write_cleanup() method (which was never documented) is now gone. - - - The 'blib/' directory is now properly cleaned up in more (all?) - circumstances. Previously it could become a phantom if - create_build_script() was never called. - - - Now scan the 'c_source' directory for .cpp (C++) files as well as - .c files, and compiles them. - - - Use a 'phony' target for 'make manifest' in the pass-through - Makefile, for the same reason as 'make install' (see version 0.12 - notes below). - - - Module::Build::Compat now accepts any known Config.pm key and - passes it through to the Build.PL. Fixes a problem with CPANPLUS, - which was passing INSTALLMAN1DIR. - - - The file 'META.yaml' has been re-named to 'META.yml' in order to - cooperate better with systems that can only handle 3 characters - after the dot. - - - The t/xs.t test should give more informative error messages upon - failure. - -0.12 Thu Nov 14 18:31:47 AEST 2002 - - - The META.yaml file was erroneously looking for 'build_depends' - instead of 'build_requires'. [spotted by Iain Truskett] - - - Add prompt() and y_n() methods for use in Build.PLs - - - Do more to work with all versions of Test::Harness when setting - the TEST_VERBOSE flag and running under the debugger [patch by - Dave Rolsky] - - - Include a test for verbosity handling - - - Make sure the blib/ directory is always cleaned up with the - 'clean' or 'realclean' action. - - - In a pass-through Makefile.PL, inform 'make' that 'install' is a - "fake target", so that it works properly on case-insensitive - filesystems like HFS+ with distributions that contain an INSTALL - file. [patch by Brian Ingerson] - - - In Module::Build::Compat, show an example Makefile.PL that can - install Module::Build and re-invoke itself in one fell swoop [Dave - Rolsky and Autrijus Tang] - - - Improve the formatting of the Module::Build and - Module::Build::Compat documentation. - -0.11 Fri Aug 23 18:50:46 AEST 2002 - - - 'module_version' and 'module_version_from' have been replaced by - 'dist_version' and 'dist_version_from', which is what they really - meant in the first place. 'dist_name' has been added. - - - 'module_name' is now just a way to set 'dist_name' and - 'dist_version_from' in a convenient way. - - - The 'name' in META.yaml is now the distribution name, not the - (incorrect) module name. [spotted by Graham Barr] - - - Added the check_installed_status() and prereq_failures() methods - for checking prerequisite information with the programmatic - interface - - - check_installed_version() now uses check_installed_status() - internally - - - Documented the create_build_script() method, which had escaped - documentation. - - - create_build_script() now writes prerequisite information to the - _build/ directory, for use by Module::Build::Compat. - - - Module::Build::Compat has documentation for a safer way to write a - dummy Makefile.PL. [patch by Autrijus Tang] - -0.10 Wed Aug 7 19:36 2002 - - Recommend YAML 0.35 instead of 0.30. - - - Don't die during 'Build disttest' if YAML isn't installed. This - fixes tests 5-10 in runthrough.t if YAML isn't installed. - - - Die if an unknown license type is used, but still default to - 'unknown' if no license is specified. - - - Use YAML::DumpFile() if we're using a recent YAML, - YAML::StoreFile() otherwise. - - - Show specific error messages in runthrough.t. - - - Add a generated_by entry to the META.yaml file. - - - Skip a few tests if YAML isn't installed. - -0.09 Fri Jun 28 11:07:08 EST 2002 - - - The 'distdir' action wasn't deleting the distribution directory - before building it again. This meant that, say, if you did 'Build - disttest' then 'Build dist', you'd end up with a blib/ directory - in your distribution. I actually had this happen for version - 0.08, and it's not nice to distribute a blib/ on CPAN. - - - We now keep track of the 'base_dir', i.e. the top-level build - directory, so we can change back into it if we change out of it. - This necessitated a cwd() method, which uses the Cwd.pm module. - I'm aware of Cwd's limitations, particularly under taint-mode, but - I don't know a way around using it here. - - - The 'dist_dir' action now changes back into 'base_dir' directory. - - - We now do write_config() inside the create_build_script() method, - not inside the new() method. - - - Simplified the find_version() method, and improved its error - messages. - - - Renamed module_name_to_file() to find_module_by_name(), and added - a parameter specifying the directories to search in. Previously - we searched in 'lib' and @INC, which wasn't correct in all - situations. - - - Patched the docs to change "Build test" to "./Build test" - [Elizabeth Mattijsen] - -0.08 Wed Jun 26 20:30:56 EST 2002 - - - Fixed the 'prereq' alias for the 'requires' parameter - - - Added some tests in t/basic.t to test the dependency checking - - - Added 'artistic' as a licensing option [Arthur Bergman] - - - Fixed some bugs in requires/prereq/recommends/conflicts/build_depends - - - Fixed a typo in the 'distclean' action that prevented its - execution [Arthur Bergman] - - - Separated the linking phase of building XS items into its own - link_c() method. Its interface is still unstable, so it's not - documented yet. [suggested by Arthur Bergman] - -0.07 Jun 9 2002 15:46 - - - We now generate a 'META.yaml' metadata file during 'Build dist'. - This can be very useful for lots of things, none of which are - implemented yet. - - - Added a 'dynamic_config' parameter, defaulting to false. This - lets distribution systems (CPAN.pm, etc.) build, test, and install - "easy" modules without having to execute the Build.PL at runtime. - It's also a guarantee that the list of dependencies is exactly - what is present in the metadata file, and won't be changed during - the build process. - - - Added support for "recommended" and "build-time requirement" - modules, besides those that are absolutely required. Also added a - "conflicts" field. - - - Changed the 'prereq' field to 'requires' (the old name will - continue to work). - - - Added support for checking the installed version of perl as an - explicit dependency. - - - Added a 'license' parameter to specify one of a fixed number of - licenses for the distribution. - - - Fixed a bug in Module::Build::Compat that was preventing arguments - from being processed properly. [patch by Ilya Martynov] - - - Make sure we're in the right directory when we write the cleanup - file, since various ExtUtils::Install errors might leave us in an - unknown directory. [patch by Ilya Martynov] - - - Specified the 'license', 'recommends', and 'dynamic_config' - values in Build.PL, and changed 'prereq' to 'requires'. - -0.06 Apr 2 2002 17:44 - - - Added the Module::Build::Compat module for assisting and - explaining compatibility with ExtUtils::Makemaker and cohorts. - - - State is now saved using Data::Dumper instead of my ad-hoc - mechanism, guaranteeing data integrity. Whitespace values broke - in the former scheme. - - - Added the 'recommended' option, which works like 'prereq' but - isn't insistent. - - - Separated the various parameters into three groups: parameters - that tell Module::Build what to do, Config.pm parameters, and - user-defined parameters for each build (the module author is the - 'user' here). This helps avoid conflicts between names, and it - was silly to have them all together. The three groups of - parameters are subject to the same rules for overriding: values - specified during a Build action take precedence over values - specified at 'perl Build.PL' time, which in turn take precedence - over values specified in the call to new(). - - - Improved support for .PL files. Any .PL file in the lib/ - directory or the directory specified by 'c_source' will now get - properly executed. I also added a 'PL_files' parameter that you - can use in case the .PL doesn't create an obviously-named output - file. - - - If a prerequisite condition is malformed, we now report a prereq - failure and say why. Previously we issued a warning and kept - going. - - -0.05 10-Jan-2002 20:26 - - Added the Module::Build->subclass() method, which makes it easier to - make quick-and-dirty subclasses of Module::Build. - - - Reorganized the docs a bit. - - - Added the 'testdb' action, and the 'debugger=1' argument to the - 'test' action, both of which run tests under the perl - debugger. (idea: Dave Rolsky) - - - Added prerequisite checking (Dave Rolsky) - - - Fixed an unlikely-to-occur bug with misquoted strings in the - 'Build' script (spot: Dave Rolsky) - - - We're more careful about shush-ing warnings that - ExtUtils::Manifest might emit (Dave Rolsky) - - - The 'help' action now auto-generates the list of actions (Dave Rolsky) - - - Added the 'distcheck', 'skipcheck', 'distclean', 'distdir', and - 'disttest' actions (Dave Rolsky) - - - We're a little more aggressive about cleaning up temporary files - - we'll try to clean them up even when we don't have write permission - on them. This isn't as dastardly as it sounds; if we /really/ - don't have permission, we won't be able to remove them no matter - how hard we try. - -0.04 Fri Nov 16 16:55 2001 - - Added a 'manifest' action. It's just like MakeMaker's 'make manifest', it - brings your MANIFEST file up to date with your distribution directory. - - - Reorganized some of the responsibilities of various methods, which - allows modules to be built and tested programmatically. - - - The 'clean' action will now clean up files that were created more - recently than the on-disk cleanup registry was written. - - - Undefined values from Config.pm are handled correctly now. - - - The dispatch() method will now accept explicit dispatch - parameters, for use in a programmatic setting. - - - $ENV{TEST_VERBOSE} will be set in test scripts if the 'verbose=1' - parameter is set. - - - Moved the test.pl script to t/basic.t - - - Created the t/xs.t script, which tests building a module with a - .xs component. - - - Fixed the loading of $^O-specific modules (there were no such - modules before). - - - Added a 'darwin' platform module, which removes -flat_namespace - from $Config{ccflags} while building .xs modules (it's a linker - flag, not a compiler flag). - - - Now uses $^W instead of the 'warnings' pragma, which apparently - provides compatibility with perl 5.005 (I've only tested it with - 5.6.x myself). - - - If a file called C<visual.pl> exists in the top-level directory, - this file will be executed as a Perl script during 'Build test' and - its output will be shown to the user. This is a good place to put - speed tests or other tests that don't use the C<Test::Harness> format - for output. - - - The 'Build install' step will now put .xs-related things in the - correct architecture-dependent libraries. - - - Added the 'autosplit' option, even though I think autosplitting is - a load of hooie. - -0.03 Sun Nov 11 14:58 CDT 2001 - - The 'perl Build.PL' step will now detect whether the current - environment is "unixish", "windowsish", etc., and load the correct - module (i.e. Module::Build::Platform::Unix). More specific - modules may also be written for particular values of $^O. - - - Module::Build will now process any .xs files in the lib/ - directory. Please let me know whether this works or not with your - distribution & platform. I'll be trying out various distributions - on my platform. - - - Corrected some embarassing errors in the POD documentation. Also - added a long documentation section on the various build actions - (test, install, build, etc.) and added some neato ASCII art. - - - Added a 'cleanup' mechanism - any method may call the - $self->add_to_cleanup(@files) method to register files which need - to be cleaned up during 'Build clean'. - - - Added a 'Build help' action that gives a little syntax help, and - lists all the actions available. - - - Fixed a bug in which 'blib/' wasn't properly being added to @INC - when running 'Build test'. - - - For the 'Build dist' action, we'll use the 'tar' and 'gzip' - programs (as specified by Config.pm) on Unix platforms, otherwise - we'll use Archive::Tar and Compress::Zlib. - -0.02 Wed Sep 5 00:53:04 CDT 2001 - - Added POD documentation. - - - Added the 'install', 'fakeinstall', and 'dist' actions. - - - new() will now determine version string based on 'module_version', or - 'module_version_from', or 'module_name', in that order. - - - Module::Build::Base handles its file paths in a platform-independent - way, using the File:: modules - - -0.01 Sun Aug 5 01:23:10 2001 - - original version; created by h2xs 1.1.1.4 with options -XA -n Module::Build - diff --git a/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/ModuleInfo.pm b/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/ModuleInfo.pm index b36cc388c3d..2e1483154dc 100644 --- a/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/ModuleInfo.pm +++ b/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/ModuleInfo.pm @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ package Module::Build::ModuleInfo; use strict; use vars qw($VERSION); -$VERSION = '0.4003'; +$VERSION = '0.4205'; $VERSION = eval $VERSION; require Module::Metadata; diff --git a/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/Platform/Amiga.pm b/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/Platform/Amiga.pm deleted file mode 100644 index 0be3dde62ec..00000000000 --- a/gnu/usr.bin/perl/cpan/Module-Build/lib/Module/Build/Platform/Amiga.pm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,34 +0,0 @@ -package Module::Build::Platform::Amiga; - -use strict; -use vars qw($VERSION); -$VERSION = '0.4003'; -$VERSION = eval $VERSION; -use Module::Build::Base; - -use vars qw(@ISA); -@ISA = qw(Module::Build::Base); - - -1; -__END__ - - -=head1 NAME - -Module::Build::Platform::Amiga - Builder class for Amiga platforms - -=head1 DESCRIPTION - -The sole purpose of this module is to inherit from -C<Module::Build::Base>.
