[Jan Dubois] + + - On Cygwin, examine $Config{useshrplib} to see whether we're + supposed to be linking with a shared perl library or not. [Reini + Urban] + + - In link_executable() on Cygwin, trust $Config{ld} rather than using + $Config{cc} for linking. [Reini Urban] + + - Add 'haiku' as a Unix-like platform. [Ingo Weinhold] + +0.24 - Fri Aug 15 22:01:48 2008 + + - Added 'gnu' and 'gnukfreebsd' as Unix variants. [Niko Tyni] + + - Brought in some VMS fixes from bleadperl: "Correct and complete + CBuilder's handling of external libraries when linking on VMS." + [Craig Berry] + +0.23 - Sat Apr 19 22:28:03 2008 + + - Fixed some problems (some old, some new) with Strawberry Perl on + Windows. [Alberto Simo~es] + + - Will now install in the core perl lib directory when the user's + perl is new enough to have us in core. [Yi Ma Mao] + +0.22 - Fri Feb 8 21:52:21 2008 + + - Replaced the split_like_shell() method on Windows with a + near-no-op, which is probably more correct and has the benefit of + not messing up UNC paths. [John R. LoVerso, see + http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=26545] + + - Fixed extra_compiler_flags on Windows, they were being + ignored. [Robert May] + +0.21 - Tue Oct 30 06:46:01 2007 + + - Clean up perl_src path using Cwd::realpath(). Only affects usage + as part of the perl core. + + - Protect $., $@, $!, $^E, and $? from any clobbering that might + occur in our DESTROY method. [Zefram] + + - From bleadperl, a patch to clean up debug symbol files (.pdb for + VC++, .tds for BCC) when running have_compiler(). [Steve Hay & + Steve Peters] + +0.19 - Sun May 13 14:29:18 2007 + + - When building as part of the perl core (so this is irrelevant for + people downloading from CPAN) we now try a little harder to find + the perl sources. [Jos Boumans] + + - Fixed a part of the manifest thingy that got broken on 64-bit + Windows platforms in version 0.18. [Steve Hay, Jan Dubois] + +0.18 - Mon Mar 26 21:29:09 2007 + + - Various OS/2 fixes: + + Put .LIB file near .DEF file + + Got library-file building working better + + Handled libperl_overrides better + [Ilya Zakharevich] + + - On Windows: embed manifest files in DLLs built with Module-Build + when using VC8. [Steve Hay] + + - Added a workaround for a config error on dec_osf: the linker is + $Config{cc}, not $Config{ld}. [Jarkko Hietaniemi] + + - Borland's compiler "response files" will not pass through macro + definitions that contain quotes. The quotes get stripped and there + seems to be no way to escape them. So we leave macros on the + command line. [Randy W. Sims] + +0.18 Sat Mar 25 13:35:47 CST 2006 + + - Yet more fixes for arg_defines() on VMS. [Craig A. Berry and John + E. Malmberg] + +0.17 Wed Mar 15 22:46:15 CST 2006 + + - When we're being run from an uninstalled perl distribution + (e.g. one that's in the process of being built and tested), we + search for perl first in the current working directory. [Randy + Sims] + + - More fixing of the arg_defines() method on VMS. [Craig A. Berry and + John E. Malmberg] + +0.16 Mon Mar 13 17:08:21 CST 2006 + + - Fix quoting of command line arguments on Windows. [Yitzchak + Scott-Thoennes] + + - Provided a custom arg_defines() on VMS that does essentially the + same thing for /define that version 0.14 did for /include. [Craig + A. Berry] + + - Documented the existing 'quiet' parameter, which silences the + printing of system() commands. [Suggested by Yitzchak + Scott-Thoennes] + +0.15 Mon Oct 3 17:10:32 CDT 2005 + + - Several OS/2 fixes have been made, including: 1) adding the + necessary version string to DLLs, 2) passing the executable's name + to 'ldopts' without the .exe extension, 3) avoiding calling 'env' + via the 'shrpenv' thingy, since it triggers a fork() bug. [Ilya + Zakharevich] + + - Integrate a couple cleanup-related changes from bleadperl that + somehow never got into this copy. [Steve Hay] + + - Added a new 'defines' parameter to compile(), which gives a + platform-independant way to specify various -Dfoo=bar (or the + equivalent) compiler defines. [Randy W. Sims] + +0.14 Mon Sep 19 13:40:37 CDT 2005 + + - Several fixes have been made for VMS, including: 1) there can only + be one /include qualifier, so merge multiple /includes into one; 2) + make sure the executable is named the same way that dynaloader will + look for it; 3) make sure the option files for the exported symbols + and the PERLSHR image are passed properly to the linker. [John + E. Malmberg] + +0.13 Wed Aug 24 20:05:59 CDT 2005 + + - Several temporary files weren't being cleaned up during testing, + because the 'cleanup' mechanism was never properly implemented. + This is now fixed. [Steve Hay] + +0.12 Mon May 30 16:40:10 CDT 2005 + + - In order to integrate into the perl core, patches were contributed + that a) put a $VERSION variable in each .pm file, b) add a 'quiet' + parameter to new() to shut up some of the command-echoing, c) + checks for the perl source headers in the CORE/ directory in the + perl source tree, not in the post-installation location, and d) + adjusts the CWD when running the regression tests under the perl + core. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] + + - Various parts of the code were looking for the CORE/ directory in + $Config{archlib}, $Config{installarchlib}, and $Config{archlibexp}. + Only the latter is correct, so we use that everywhere now. + [Curt Tilmes] + + - For Unix-ish platforms, link_executable() will now prefer + $Config{cc} to $Config{ld}, because that typically works + better. [Jarkko Hietaniemi and H.Merijn Brand] + + - Prelinking (invoking ExtUtils::Mksymlists to create options-files) + is now only done when we're building dynamic libraries. [Yitzchak + Scott-Thoennes] + +0.11 Tue Apr 5 20:58:41 CDT 2005 + + - Added a licensing statement to CBuilder.pm. [Spotted by Chip + Salzenberg] + +0.10 Mon Mar 14 20:18:19 CST 2005 + + - Split out a few simple routines that format how compile switches + are formatted, so that we can override them for platforms like VMS + where they're very different. + + - Fix compile() and link() on VMS. [Help from Michael Schwern and + Peter Prymmer] + +0.09 Tue Feb 8 17:57:41 CST 2005 + + - Fixed a broken link_executable() method on cygwin - it now uses + 'gcc' instead of $Config{ld} for the linking, because the latter is + actually a shell script which calls a perl script which calls gcc + in a way that only works for creating shared libraries, not + executables. + +0.08 Tue Jan 18 21:54:11 CST 2005 + + - Fixed a testing error in which I had the prototype wrong for the + main() function. [Jose Pedro Oliveira] + +0.07 Wed Jan 12 21:50:34 CST 2005 + + - Added the link_executable() method, which provides the ability to + create standalone executables. This is NOT yet implemented on + Windows, and therefore the tests for it are skipped on Win32. + [Alberto Manuel Brandao Simoes] + + - Integrated the latest split_like_shell() for Windows from + Module::Build (really need to find a better home for this code...), + which now does a much better job of handling quotes and backslashes + and so on. [Randy Sims] + + - Fixed a couple of Windows problems related to the output-file name + in link(), and some clobbering of the 'include_dirs' parameter to + compile(). [Randy Sims] + +0.06 Mon Dec 27 22:51:36 CST 2004 + + - Fixed a bug on Unix environments in which our work-around for + shell-commands like "FOO=BAR cc" (which is supposed to be turned + into "env FOO=BAR cc" to actually work) wasn't being called. + +0.05 Wed Oct 13 23:09:09 CDT 2004 + + - Fixed a bug in split_like_shell() in which leading whitespace was + creating an empty word, manifesting as something like "gcc - no + such file or directory" during tests. [Spotted by Warren L. Dodge] + + - Incorporate another split_like_shell() fix from Module::Build. + +0.04 Sun Oct 10 00:31:08 CDT 2004 + + - Changed the split_like_shell() method to use the shellwords() + function from Text::ParseWords (a core module since 5.0), which + does a much better job than the split() we were using. + + +0.03 Fri May 14 23:12:23 CDT 2004 + + - Fixed minor problems with the Build.PL file, the module names + should be quoted. + + - The VMS module declared itself with the wrong package name. + + +0.02 Fri Feb 20 10:17:40 CST 2004 + + - Fixed a bug in .../Platform/Windows.pm, in which compile() was + ignoring an 'include_dirs' argument. [Randy Sims] + + - Fixed a bug in .../Platform/Windows.pm, in which output files were + being created in the root directory \ when they should be created + in the current directory. [Randy Sims] + + +0.01 Mon Jan 12 08:12:35 CST 2004 + + - Original release, taken from Module::Build's C-building code, with + patching help from Randy Sims. |
