It will continue to exist as an undocumented legacy interface until 2015, warnings will be issued from 2013 (ADAMK) - On FreeDesktop.org systems, root often does not have the relevant directories. Skip tests for them in the same way as we do for the Mac root users on darwin (GARU) 0.92_01 Fri 11 Jun 2010 - Updating to Module::Install 0.99 (ADAMK) - Adding experimental support for my_dist_data() (JQUELIN) 0.91 Sun 23 May 2010 - Moving the FreeDesktop driver to prod - Adding File::HomeDir::Test driver 0.90_04 Fri 12 Feb 2010 - Adding missing prereq 0.90_03 Tue 9 Feb 2010 - Using FreeDesktop implementation only if xdg-user-script is present, since it's now what's been used internally. This should prevent test failures seen in _02. (JQUELIN) 0.90_02 Thu 14 Jan 2010 - Adding support for the alternate FreeBSD xdg directory (JQUELIN) - Improved specification compliance (DAXIM) 0.90_01 Thu 7 Jan 2010 - WARNING: This release introduces a major backwards incompatibility for Unix users. The results returned by most methods may change. - Added complete implementation of the FreeDesktop specification and auto-detection of the Unix hosts to which it applies (JQUELIN) - 01_compile.t now loads all backends (since on most platforms, most backends will never normally be loaded). 0.89 Sun 3 Jan 2010 - Loosen the testing intensity on Darwin Carbon backends to prevent issues with consumer directories prevent installation entirely. 0.88 Tue 24 Nov 2009 - Switching to a production release 0.87_01 Sat 3 Oct 2009 - First developer implementation of improved Mac support 0.86 Fri 27 Mar 2009 - Bug fix for the 64-bit implementation 0.85_01 Fri 27 Mar 2009 - For 64-bit perl on Darwin, fall back to File::HomeDir::Unix as Mac::Carbon is not available 0.84 Wed 11 Mar 2009 - Adds support for $ENV{HOME} on Darwin - Other bug fixes on Darwin (MIYAGAWA) 0.83_01 Sat 1 Nov 2008 - Patch from Darin McBride to fix user_home on Darwin. 0.82 Tue 14 Oct 2008 - When we get more than one warning, diag the warnings so that we have actually have a chance to get rid of the extra warnings. 0.81 Thu 3 Jul 2008 - Updating to Module::Install 0.77 - Localising $@ during evals - Updating Perl version dependency to 5.00503 0.80 Fri 27 Jun 2008 - All clear on the CPAN Testers front, flipping to production 0.71_03 Wed 25 Jun 2008 - Removing the Server 2003 and 2008 skips that should work now that we create directories on demand. - File::HomeDir should now support "Perl on a Stick" 0.71_02 Mon 28 Apr 2008 - Added `my_dot_config`. - Adding a base driver class. 0.71_01 Fri 4 Apr 2008 - Converted from Registry checks to Win32 calls.

(This release attempts to regain 100% CPAN Testers results) - Spurious failures on some path-levels of 5.9.0 due to a warnings bug regression. Skip the relevant test on Perl 5.9.0. - Remove a -w flag in 02_main.t so test run under tainting 0.65 Wed 21 Mar 2007 - Add a special case to pass users_home(current user) on to my_home (This prevents tests failing when you manually set HOME to lie about your home directory. This was mostly preventing installation with "sudo cpan -i File::HomeDir". - Upgraded to Module::Install 0.65 0.64 Thu 8 Feb 2007 (Stephen Steneker) - Add Makefile prequisite for a version of Mac::Carbon that properly supports Intel macs .. default Tiger install includes a buggy version [RT#24222] - No other changes from 0.63 0.63 Tue 9 Jan 2007 - The ability to overload HOME on any platform, even Win32, is apparently desirable. So now we support the use of HOME on Win32 for that specific case. 0.62 Thu 2 Jan 2007 - On WinXP, the My Videos directory (and registry entry) does not exist by default. It is created the first time Windows Movie Maker is run. - Skip the My Videos test on WinXP as a result 0.61 Tue 2 Jan 2007 - Verified the previous version on Win2K, WinXP, Linux and Mac OS X. - Verified as a normal user, root and nobody on most of these. - No change other than converting the version to a release version. 0.60_13 Tue 1 Jan 2007 - Lets try that again 0.60_12 Mon 1 Jan 2007 - Skip an unreliable test on older Perls 0.60_11 Mon 1 Jan 2007 - Reduced the basic version dependencies on Mac OS because they were unnecesary on that platform, and now Mac users don't need to upgrade PathTools. 0.60_10 Mon 1 Jan 2007 - More testing problems on Win2K - Adding a dependency on Win32 to access Win32::GetOSName (Dependency issues could make this backfire, so maybe will need another test cycle or two to make sure it works) 0.60_09 Mon 1 Jan 2007 - Sigh... cases are now known to exist where users do not have home directories. Tests refactored AGAIN do allow the "nobody" user to pass the test suite. Don't ask me WHY people might need to install a module as nobody. I don't know. But now the test suite accomodates that. - On Unix, if the home directory does not exist, for example /nonexistant, it means the user does NOT have a home directory. So in those cases, return undef instead of the /nonexistant directory. 0.60_08 Mon 1 Jan 2007 - Problems with Win2k hopefully finally resolved 0.60_07 Tue 19 Dec 2006 - Problems with testing continue to plague the module... 0.60_06 Fri 15 Dec 2006 - Another attempt to fix the getpwuid problem 0.60_05 Tue 12 Dec 2006 - Removed a build-time dependency on getpwuid 0.60_04 Thu 2 Nov 2006 Stephen Steneker stennie@cpan.org - win32: add support for my_pictures, my_videos - darwin: add support for my_music, my_pictures, my_videos - Skip "root" tests on darwin, not supported - add POD docs with examples for o/s specific implementations 0.60_03 Wed 20 Sep 2006 - Cleaned up the way unimplemented method exceptions are thrown. - Fleshed out the docs a bit more. - Added an initial implementation of my_music 0.60_02 Fri 14 Jul 2006 - Altered testing to allow cases where there are no "toys" directories - More cleanups for Darwin in the root case - Updating dependencies to something more modern (mostly to ensure certain fixes to certain problems exist) 0.60_01 ... # Introduces back-compatibility issues - No longer treat lack of a home directory as an error - More test written on the Israel.pm monthly meeting - Major upgrade to Darwin driver (CNANDOR) 0.58 Wed 10 May 2006 # No functional changes, upgrading has no benefit. - Upgrade Module::Install to 0.62 final - AutoInstall is only needed for options, so remove auto_install 0.57 2006-03-10 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org # No functional changes, upgrading has no benefit. - Upgraded Module::Install to 0.62 (M:I is relatively sane from 0.61) - Removing all use of UNIVERSAL::isa (the function) - Adding missing use Carp() in a couple of cases - Minor POD changes 0.56 2006-03-10 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org # No functional changes, upgrading has no benefit. - I screwed up Module::Install 0.58 - Fixed that, then incremented version to fix this 0.55 2006-03-05 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org # No functional changes, upgrading has no benefit. - Documentation bug fix - Documented the todo list - Updated Module::Install to 0.58 0.54 2006-02-27 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Adding a dependency of Win32::TieRegistry's, so this installs. - Will remove it later when that bug is fixed in Win32::TieRegistry 0.53 2006-02-27 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Typo caused Makefile.PL not to require Win32::TieRegistry on Win32 - Upgraded to Module::Install 0.57 0.52 2005-01-04 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Added initial Darwin support. 0.51 2005-12-30 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Fixed a typo where I left the require of the Windows module as Win32. (Randy Kobes) 0.50 2005-12-26 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Rewrote the guts entirely to split functionality out into platform-specific submodules, and to add more specialised code for Win32. 0.07 2005-11-09 Adam Kennedy adamk@cpan.org - Near-complete rewrite to modernise and prepare to start merging in File::HomeDir::Win32. - "Traded" module in exchange for Data::JavaScript::Anon :) - Replaced Makefile.PL with Module::Install-based version that lists its dependencies in a platform-sensitive way. This also removes the need for evals. - Replaced tests with Test::More-based ones and improved coverage. - Put the platform-specific code into if ( CONSTANT ) blocks so they will compile out. - Otherwise cleaned up and improved the layout of the code - Added support for $ENV{HOMEDIR} and $ENV{HOMEPATH} on Win32 - More-explicit testing before we return a path - Keep caching user home, but NOT "my" home in case the process changes user. 0.06 2004-12-29 Sean M.
