Berry, Peter Edwards] - - - Removed some function prototypes and other Perl::Critic violations. - - - canonpath() and catdir() and catfile() on Win32 now make an - explicit (and unnecessary) copy of their arguments right away, - because apparently if we don't, we sabotage all of Win32dom. [RT - #33675] - - - The Makefile.PL now has 'use 5.005;' to explicitly show what - minimum version of perl we support. [Spotted by Alexandr Ciornii] - -3.2701 - Mon Feb 11 21:43:51 2008 - - - Fixed an edge case for Win32 catdir('C:', 'foo') and catfile('C:', - 'foo.txt') (which the caller's not really supposed to do, that's - what catpath() is for) that changed between versions. Now we're - back to the old behavior, which was to return C:\foo and C:\foo.txt . - [Audrey Tang] - -3.27 - Wed Jan 16 20:20:49 2008 - - - If strlcpy() and strlcat() aren't available on the user's system, - we now use ppport.h to provide them, so our C code works. [Steve - Peters] - - - Upgraded to a newer version of ppport.h [Steve Peters] - -3.26 - Sun Jan 13 21:59:20 2008 - - - case_tolerant() on Cygwin will now avoid a painful death when - Cygwin::mount_flags() isn't defined, as is the case for perl < - 5.10. It will now just return 1, which is what it always did - before it got so smart. [Spotted by Emanuele Zeppieri] - - - abs_path() on Unix(ish) platforms has been upgraded to a much later - version of the underlying C code from BSD. [Michael Schwern] - -3.2501 - Mon Dec 24 20:33:02 2007 - - - Reimplemented abs_path() on VMS to use - VMS::Filespec::vms_realpath() when it's available. [John E. Malmberg] - - - tmpdir() on Cygwin now also looks in $ENV{TMP} and $ENV{TEMP}. - - - case_tolerant() on Cygwin and Win32 now take an optional path - argument, defaulting to the C drive, to check for case tolerance, - because this fact can vary on different volumes. - - - File::Spec on Unix now uses Cwd::getcwd() rather than Cwd::cwd() to - get the current directory because I guess someone on p5p thought it - was more appropriate. - - - Added a large set of File::Spec tests for the Cygwin platform. - - - abs_path() now behaves correctly with symbolic links on VMS. - - - Someone fixed a couple of mysterious edge cases in VMS' canonpath() - and splitdir(). - -3.25_01 - Sat Oct 13 21:13:57 2007 - - - Major fixes on Win32, including a rewrite of catdir(), catfile(), - and canonpath() in terms of a single body of code. [Heinrich Tegethoff] - - - For Win32 and Cygwin, case-tolerance can vary depending on the - volume under scrutiny. When Win32API::File is available, it will - be employed to determine case-sensitivity of the given filesystem - (C: by default), otherwise we still return the default of 1. [Reini - Urban] - - - On Cygwin, we added $ENV{'TMP'} and $ENV{'TEMP'} to the list of - possible places to look for tmpdir() return values. [Reini Urban] - - - Added lots more tests for Cygwin. [Reini Urban] - - - canonpath() with no arguments and canonpath(undef) now consistently - return undef on all platforms. [Spotted by Peter John Edwards] - - - Fixed splitdir('') and splitdir(undef) and splitdir() to return an - empty list on VMS and MacOS, like it does on other platforms. - [Craig A. Berry] - - - All .pm files now have the same $VERSION number, rather than a - hodgepodge of various numbers. - -3.25 - Mon May 21 21:07:26 2007 - - - Added a workaround for auto-vivication-of-function-args Perl bug - (triggered by OS/2-specific code). [Ilya Zakharevich] - - - Sync with a bleadperl change: miniperl can no longer use Win32::* - functions because it cannot load Win32.dll. [Jan Dubois] - - - We only need to load ppport.h when building outside the core, so we - avoid using it when in the core. - -3.24 - Sun Nov 19 22:52:49 2006 - - - Fixed a bug in the $ENV{PWD}-updating of Cwd::chdir() when a - dirhandle is passed in. [Steve Peters] - - - Add perl 5.005 to the list of requirements in the - Build.PL/Makefile.PL/META.yml. - - - Add ExtUtils::CBuilder to the list of build_requires in Build.PL. - - - Improved performance of canonpath() on Unix-ish platforms - on my - OS X laptop it looks like it's about twice as fast. [Ruslan Zakirov] - -3.23 - Wed Oct 11 12:11:25 2006 - - - Yet more Win32 fixes (sigh... seems like I'm fighting a neverending - waterbed...). This time, fixed file_name_is_absolute() to know - what it's doing when the path includes a volume but a relative - path, like C:foo.txt . This bug had impact in rel2abs() on Win32 - too. - -3.22 - Mon Oct 9 21:50:52 2006 - - - Fixed the t/crossplatform.t test on Win32 (and possibly other - volume-aware platforms) now that rel2abs() always adds a drive - letter. [Reported by several parties] - -3.21 - Wed Oct 4 21:16:43 2006 - - - Added a bunch of X<> tags to the File::Spec docs to help - podindex. [Gabor Szabo] - - - On Win32, abs2rel('C:\one\two\t\foo', 't\bar') should return - '..\foo' when the cwd is 'C:\one\two', but it wasn't noticing that - the two relevant volumes were the same so it would return the full - path 'C:\one\two\t\foo'. This is fixed. [Spotted by Alexandr - Ciornii] - - - On Win32, rel2abs() now always adds a volume (drive letter) if the - given path doesn't have a volume (drive letter or UNC volume). - Previously it could return a value that didn't have a volume if the - input was a semi-absolute path like /foo/bar instead of a - fully-absolute path like C:/foo/bar . - -3.19 Tue Jul 11 22:40:26 CDT 2006 - - - When abs2rel() is called with two relative paths - (e.g. abs2rel('foo/bar/baz', 'foo/bar')) the resolution algorithm - needlessly called cwd() (twice!) to turn both arguments into - absolute paths. Now it avoids the cwd() calls with a workaround, - making a big efficiency win when abs2rel() is called - repeatedly. [Brendan O'Dea] - - - Added a build-time dependency on ExtUtils::Install version 1.39 - when on Windows. This is necessary because version 1.39 knows how - to replace an in-use Cwd shared library, but previous versions - don't. [Suggested by Adam Kennedy] - - - Fixed File::Spec::Win32->canonpath('foo/../bar'), which was - returning \bar, and now properly returns just bar. [Spotted by - Heinrich Tegethoff] - -3.18 Thu Apr 27 22:01:38 CDT 2006 - - - Fixed some problems on VMS in which a directory called "0" would be - treated as a second-class citizen. [Peter (Stig) Edwards] - - - Added a couple of regression tests to make sure abs2rel('/foo/bar', - '/') works as expected. [Chia-liang Kao] - - - Added a couple of regression tests to make sure catdir('/', - 'foo/bar') works as expected. [Mark Grimes] - -3.17 Fri Mar 3 16:52:30 CST 2006 - - - The Cygwin version of Cwd::cwd() will croak if given any arguments - (which can happen if, for example, it's called as Cwd->cwd). Since - that croaking is bad, we now wrap the original cwd() in a - subroutine that ignores its arguments. We could skip this wrapping - if a future version of perl changes cygwin.c's cwd() to not barf - when fed an argument. [Jerry D. Hedden] - -3.16 Mon Jan 30 20:48:41 CST 2006 - - - Updated to version 3.06 of ppport.h, which provides backward - compatibility XS layers for older perl versions. - - - Clarify in the docs for File::Spec's abs2rel() and rel2abs() - methods that the cwd() function it discusses is - Cwd::cwd(). [Spotted by Steven Lembark] - - - Apparently the version of File::Path that ships with perl 5.8.5 - (and perhaps others) calls Cwd::getcwd() with an argument (perhaps - as a method?), which causes it to die with a prototyping error. - We've eliminated the prototype by using the "(...)" arglist, since - "PROTOTYPE: DISABLE" for the function didn't seem to work. [Spotted - by Eamon Daly and others] - -3.15 Tue Dec 27 14:17:39 CST 2005 - - - The Cwd::getcwd() function on *nix is now a direct pass-through to - the underlying getcwd() C library function when possible. This is - safer and faster than the previous implementation, which just did - abs_path('.'). The pure-perl version has been kept for cases in - which the XS version can't load, such as when running under - miniperl. [Suggested by Nick Ing-Simmons] - - - When Cwd searches for a 'pwd' executable in the $PATH, we now stop - after we find the first one rather than continuing the search. We - also avoid the $PATH search altogether when a 'pwd' was already - found in a well-known and well-trusted location like /bin or - /usr/bin. [Suggested by Nick Ing-Simmons] - - - On Win32 abs2rel($path, $base) was failing whenever $base is the - root of a volume (such as C:\ or \\share\dir). This has been - fixed. [Reported by Bryan Daimler] - - - In abs2rel() on VMS, we've fixed handling of directory trees so - that the test $file = File::Spec::VMS->abs2rel('[t1.t2.t3]file', - '[t1.t2.t3]') returns 'file' instead of an empty string. [John - E. Malmberg] - - - In canonpath() on VMS, '[]' was totally optimized away instead of - just returning '[]'. Now it's fixed. [John E. Malmberg] - -3.14 Thu Nov 17 18:08:44 CST 2005 - - - canonpath() has some logic in it that avoids collapsing a - //double/slash at the beginning of a pathname on platforms where - that means something special. It used to check the value of $^O - rather than the classname it was called as, which meant that - calling File::Spec::Cygwin->canonpath() didn't act like cygwin - unless you were actually *on* cygwin. Now it does. - - - Fixed a major bug on Cygwin in which catdir() could sometimes - create things that look like //network/paths in cases when it - shouldn't (e.g. catdir("/", "foo", "bar")). - -3.13 Tue Nov 15 23:50:37 CST 2005 - - - Calling tmpdir() on Win32 had the unintended side-effect of storing - some undef values in %INC for the TMPDIR, TEMP, and TMP entries if - they didn't exist already. This is probably a bug in perl itself - (submitted as #37441 on rt.perl.org), which we're now working - around. [Thomas L. Shinnick] - - - Integrated a change from bleadperl - a certain #ifdef in Cwd.xs - needs to apply to WIN32 but not WinCE. [Vadim Konovalov] - - - abs2rel() used to return the empty string when its two arguments - were identical, which made no sense. Now it returns - curdir(). [Spotted by David Golden] - - - The Unix and Win32 implementations of abs2rel() have been unified. - -3.12 Mon Oct 3 22:09:12 CDT 2005 - - - Fixed a testing error on OS/2 in which a drive letter for the root - directory was confusing things. [Ilya Zakharevich] - - - Integrated a patch from bleadperl for fixing path() on - Win32. [Gisle Aas] - -3.11 Sat Aug 27 20:12:55 CDT 2005 - - - Fixed a couple of typos in the documentation for - File::Spec::Mac. [Piotr Fusik] - -3.10 Thu Aug 25 22:24:57 CDT 2005 - - - eliminate_macros() and fixpath() in File::Spec::VMS are now - deprecated, since they are MakeMaker-specific and now live inside - MakeMaker. [Michael Schwern] - - - canonpath() on Win32 now collapses foo/.. (or foo\..) sections - correctly, rather than doing the "misguided" work it was previously - doing. Note that canonpath() on Unix still does NOT collapse these - sections, as doing so would be incorrect. [Michael Schwern] - -3.09 Tue Jun 14 20:36:50 CDT 2005 - - - Added some block delimiters (brackets) in the Perl_getcwd_sv() XS - function, which were necessary to separate the variable - declarations from the statements when HAS_GETCWD is not - defined. [Yves] - - - Apparently the _NT_cwd() routine is never defined externally like I - thought it was, so I simplified the code around it. - - - When cwd() is implemented using the _backtick_pwd() function, it - sometimes could create accidental undef entries in %ENV under perl - 5.6, because local($hash{key}) is somewhat broken. This is now - fixed with an appropriate workaround. [Neil Watkiss] - -3.08 Sat May 28 10:10:29 CDT 2005 - - - Fixed a test failure with fast_abs_path() on Windows - it was - sensitive to the rootdir() change from version 3.07. [Steve Hay] - -3.07 Fri May 6 07:46:45 CDT 2005 - - - Fixed a bug in which the special perl variable $^O would become - tainted under certain versions of perl. [Michael Schwern] - - - File::Spec->rootdir() was returning / on Win32. Now it returns \ . - [Michael Schwern] - - - We now avoid modifying @_ in tmpdir() when it's not strictly - necessary, which reportedly provides a modest performance - boost. [Richard Soderberg] - - - Made a couple of slight changes to the Win32 code so that it works - (or works better) on Symbian OS phones. [Jarkko Hietaniemi] - -3.06 Wed Apr 13 20:47:26 CDT 2005 - - (No changes in functionality) - - - Added a note to the canonpath() docs about why it doesn't collapse - foo/../bar sections. - - - The internal-only function bsd_realpath() in the XS file now uses - normal arg syntax instead of K&R syntax. [Nicholas Clark] - -3.05 Mon Feb 28 07:22:58 CST 2005 - - - Fixed a bug in fast_abs_path() on Win32 in which forward- and - backward-slashes were confusing things. [demerphq] - - - Failure to load the XS code in Cwd is no longer a fatal error - (though failure to compile it is still a fatal error in the build - process). This lets Cwd work under miniperl in the core. [Rafael - Garcia-Suarez] - - - In the t/cwd.t test, don't enforce loading from blib/ if we're - testing in the perl core. [Rafael Garcia-Suarez] - -3.04 Sun Feb 6 17:27:38 CST 2005 - - - For perls older than 5.006, the HAS_GETCWD symbol is not available, - because it wasn't checked for in older Configure scripts when perl - was built. We therefore just ask the user whether the getcwd() C - function is defined on their platform when their perl is old. - Maybe in the future we'll try to automate this. [Reported by - several parties] - - - Remove lib/ppport.h from the distribution, so that MakeMaker - doesn't accidentally pick it up and install it as a lib - file. [Jerry Hedden] - - - Fixed a testing error on VMS that occurred when a user had - read-access to the root of the current volume. [Craig A. Berry] - -3.03 Fri Jan 21 21:44:05 CST 2005 - - - Fixed a testing error if the first file we find in the root - directory is a symlink. [Blair Zajac] - - - Added a test to make sure Cwd.pm is loaded from blib/ during - testing, which seems to be an issue in some people's environments - and makes it awfully hard to debug things on my end. - - - Skip the _perl_abs_path() tests on Cygwin - they don't usually - pass, and this function isn't used there anyway, so I decided not - to push it. Let 'em use `cwd`. - -3.02 Sun Jan 9 19:29:52 CST 2005 - - - Fixed a bug in which Cwd::abs_path() called on a file in the root - directory returned strange results. [Bob Luckin] - - - Straightened out the licensing details for the portion of the Cwd - module that comes from BSD sources. [Hugo van der Sanden] - - - Removed the prototype from _perl_abs_path() and the XS version of - abs_path(), since all they seemed to be doing was causing people - grief, and since some platforms didn't have them anyway. - - - Fixed a testing bug in which sometimes the wrong version of Cwd - (the version already installed on the user's machine) would get - loaded instead of the one we're building & installing. - - - Sometimes getdcwd() returns a lower-case drive letter, so don't - require an upper-case letter in t/win32.t. [Jan Dubois] - - - Fixed a memory leak in getdcwd() on win32. [Steve Hay] - - - Added a copy of ppport.h to the distribution to aid compilation on - older versions of perl. [Suggested by Charlie Root] - - - Don't bother looking for a 'pwd' executable on MSWin32 - there - won't be one, and looking for it can be extremely slow when lots of - disks are mounted. [Several people, including Andrew Burke] - - - Eliminated a multi-argument form of open() that was causing a - syntax error on older versions of perl. [Fixed by Michael Schwern] - - - The bug-fix changes for revision 0.90 of File::Spec somehow were - lost when I merged it into the PathTools distribution. They're - restored now. [Craig A. Berry] - - - File::Spec->canonpath() will now reduce paths like '[d1.-]foo.dat' - down to '[000000]foo.dat' instead of '[]foo.dat' or 'foo.dat'. - This is in better accordance with the native filename syntax - parser. [Craig A. Berry] - - - In order to remove a recursive dependency (PathTools -> Test-Simple - -> Test-Harness -> PathTools), we now include a copy of Test::More in - the distribution. It is only used for testing, it won't be installed - with the rest of the stuff. - - - Removed some 5.6-isms from Cwd in order to get it to build with - older perls like 5.005. - - - abs_path() on Windows was trampling on $ENV{PWD} - fixed. [Spotted - by Neil MacMullen] - - - Added licensing/copyright statements to the POD in each .pm - file. [Spotted by Radoslaw Zielinski] - -3.01 Mon Sep 6 22:28:06 CDT 2004 - - - Removed an unnecessary and confusing dependency on File::Spec from - the Makefile.PL and the Build.PL. - - - Added a 'NAME' entry to the Makefile.PL, because otherwise it won't - even begin to work. [Reported by many] - -3.00 Thu Sep 2 22:15:07 CDT 2004 - - - Merged Cwd and File::Spec into a single PathTools distribution. - This was done because the two modules use each other fairly - extensively, and extracting the common stuff into another - distribution was deemed nigh-impossible. The code in revision 3.00 - of PathTools should be equivalent to the code in Cwd 2.21 and - File::Spec 0.90. - -================================================================== -Prior to revision 3.00, Cwd and File::Spec were maintained as two -separate distributions. The revision history for Cwd is shown here. -The revision history for File::Spec is further below. -================================================================== - -Cwd 2.21 Tue Aug 31 22:50:14 CDT 2004 - - - Removed "NO_META" from the Makefile.PL, since I'm not building the - distribution with MakeMaker anyway. [Rohan Carly] - - - Only test _perl_abs_path() on platforms where it's expected to work - (platforms with '/' as the directory separator). [Craig A. Berry] - -Cwd 2.20 Thu Jul 22 08:23:53 CDT 2004 - - - On some implementations of perl on Win32, a memory leak (or worse?) - occurred when calling getdcwd(). This has been fixed. [PodMaster] - - - Added tests for getdcwd() on Win32. - - - Fixed a problem in the pure-perl implementation _perl_abs_path() - that caused a fatal error when run on plain files. [Nicholas Clark] - To exercise the appropriate test code on platforms that wouldn't - otherwise use _perl_abs_path(), run the tests with $ENV{PERL_CORE} - or $ENV{TEST_PERL_CWD_CODE} set. - -Cwd 2.19 Thu Jul 15 08:32:18 CDT 2004 - - - The abs_path($arg) fix from 2.18 didn't work for VMS, now it's - fixed there. [Craig Berry] - -Cwd 2.18 Thu Jun 24 08:22:57 CDT 2004 - - - Fixed a problem in which abs_path($arg) on some platforms could - only be called on directories, and died when called on files. This - was a problem in the pure-perl implementation _perl_abs_path(). - - - Fixed fast_abs_path($arg) in the same way as abs_path($arg) above. - - - On Win32, a function getdcwd($vol) has been added, which gets the - current working directory of the specified drive/volume. - [Steve Hay] - - - Fixed a problem on perl 5.6.2 when built with the MULTIPLICITY - compile-time flags. [Yitzchak Scott-Thoennes] - - - When looking for a `pwd` system command, we no longer assume the - path separator is ':'. - - - On platforms where cwd() is implemented internally (like Win32), - don't look for a `pwd` command externally. This can greatly speed - up load time. [Stefan Scherer] - - - The pure-perl version of abs_path() now has the same prototype as - the XS version (;$). - -Cwd 2.17 Wed Mar 10 07:55:36 CST 2004 - - - The change in 2.16 created a testing failure when tested from - within a path that contains symlinks (for instance, /tmp -> - /private/tmp). - -Cwd 2.16 Sat Mar 6 17:56:31 CST 2004 - - - For VMS compatibility (and to conform to Cwd's documented - interface), in the regression tests we now compare output results - to an absolute path. [Craig A. Berry] - -Cwd 2.15 Fri Jan 16 08:09:44 CST 2004 - - - Fixed a problem on static perl builds - while creating - Makefile.aperl, it was loading a mismatched version of Cwd from - blib/ . [Reported by Blair Zajac] - -Cwd 2.14 Thu Jan 8 18:51:08 CST 2004 - - - We now use File::Spec->canonpath() and properly-escaped regular - expressions when comparing paths in the regression tests. This - fixes some testing failures in 2.13 on non-Unix platforms. No - changes were made in the actual Cwd module code. [Steve Hay] - -Cwd 2.13 Fri Jan 2 22:29:42 CST 2004 - - - Changed a '//' comment to a '/* */' comment in the XS code, so that - it'll compile properly under ANSI C rules. [Jarkko Hietaniemi] - - - Fixed a 1-character buffer overrun problem in the C code. [The BSD - people] - -Cwd 2.12 Fri Dec 19 17:04:52 CST 2003 - - - Fixed a bug on Cygwin - the output of realpath() should have been - tainted, but wasn't. [Reported by Tom Wyant] - -Cwd 2.10 Mon Dec 15 07:50:12 CST 2003 - - (Note that this release was mistakenly packaged as version 2.11, even - though it had an internal $VERSION variable of 2.10. Not sure how - THAT happened...) - - - There was a dependency in the Makefile.PL on Module::Build, which - isn't necessary. I've removed it. - -Cwd 2.09 Thu Dec 11 20:30:58 CST 2003 - - - The module should now build & install using version 5.6 of perl. - - - We now note a build-time dependency on version 0.19 of - Module::Build, which is necessary because we don't use the standard - lib/-based file layout. No version of Module::Build is required if - you use the Makefile.PL, just if you use the Build.PL . - - - Removed some gratuitous uses of 5.6-isms like our(), with the aim - of backporting this module to perl 5.005. - - - Simplified all code that autoloads Carp.pm and calls - carp()/croak(). - - - Removed some redundant OS/2 code at the suggestion of Michael - Schwern and Ilya Zakharevich. - - - Make sure the correct version of Cwd.pm is loaded in the regression - tests. [Sam Vilain] - -Cwd 2.08 Wed Oct 15 20:56 CDT 2003 - - - Code extracted from perl 5.8.1 and packaged as a separate CPAN - release by Ken Williams. - -================================================================== -Prior to revision 3.00, Cwd and File::Spec were maintained as two -separate distributions. The revision history for File::Spec is shown -here. The revision history for Cwd is above. -================================================================== - -File::Spec 0.90 Tue Aug 31 22:34:50 CDT 2004 - - - On VMS, directories use vmspath() and files use vmsify(), so - rel2abs() has to use some 'educated guessing' when dealing with - paths containing slashes. [Craig A. Berry] - -File::Spec 0.89 Sun Aug 29 19:02:32 CDT 2004 - - - Fixed some pathological cases on VMS which broke canonpath() and - splitdir(). [Richard Levitte and Craig A. Berry] - - - Fixed rel2abs() on VMS when passed a unix-style relative - path. [Craig A. Berry] - -File::Spec 0.88 Thu Jul 22 23:14:32 CDT 2004 - - - rel2abs() on Win32 will now use the new Cwd::getdcwd() function, so - that things like rel2abs('D:foo.txt') work properly when the - current drive isn't 'D'. This requires Cwd version 2.18. - [Steve Hay] - - - Got rid of a redundant double-backslash in a character - class. [Alexander Farber] - - - Added much markup to pod for enhanced readability. [Andy Lester] - -File::Spec 0.87 Fri Dec 19 08:03:28 CST 2003 - - - With a one-line change in the tests, backported to perl 5.004. - [Issue reported by Barry Kemble] - -File::Spec 0.86 Fri Sep 26 10:07:39 CDT 2003 - - - This is the version released with perl 5.8.1. It is identical to - the code in the File::Spec beta 0.85_03. - -File::Spec 0.85_03 Mon Sep 15 09:35:53 CDT 2003 - - - On VMS, if catpath() receives volume specifiers in both its first - two arguments, it will now use the volume in the first argument - only. Previously it returned a non-syntactical result which - included both volumes. This change is the same in spirit to the - catpath() MacOS change from version 0.85_02. - - - Fixed an abs2rel() bug on VMS - previously - abs2rel('[t1.t2.t3]file','[t1.t2]') returned '[t3]file', now it - properly returns '[.t3]file'. - -File::Spec 0.85_02 Fri Sep 12 17:11:13 CDT 2003 - - - abs2rel() now behaves more consistently across platforms with the - notion of a volume. If the volumes of the first and second - argument (the second argument may be implicit) do not agree, we do - not attempt to reconcile the paths, and simply return the first - argument. Previously the volume of the second argument was - (usually) ignored, resulting in sometimes-garbage output. - - - catpath() on MacOS now looks for a volume element (i.e. "Macintosh HD:") - in its first argument, and then its second argument. The first - volume found will be used, and if none is found, none will be used. - - - Fixed a problem in abs2rel() on Win32 in which the volume of the - current working directory would get added to the second argument if - none was specified. This might have been somewhat helpful, but it - was contrary to the documented behavior. For example, - abs2rel('C:/foo/bar', '/foo') used to return 'bar', now it returns - 'C:/foo/bar' because there's no guarantee /foo is actually C:/foo . - - - catdir('/', '../') on OS2 previously erroneously returned '//..', - and now it returns '/'. - -File::Spec 0.85_01 Thu Sep 11 16:18:54 CDT 2003 - - Working toward 0.86, the version that will be released with perl 5.8.1. - - - The t/rel2abs2rel.t test now is a little friendlier about emitting - its diagnostic debugging output. [Jarkko Hietaniemi] - - - We now only require() Cwd when it's needed, on demand. [Michael - Schwern, Tels] - - - Fixed some POD errors and redundancies in OS2.pm and Cygwin.pm. - [Michael Schwern] - - - The internal method cwd() has been renamed to _cwd(), since it was - never meant for public use. [Michael Schwern] - - - Several methods in File::Spec::Unix that just return constant - strings have been sped up. catdir() has also been sped up there. - [Tels] - - - Several canonpath() and catdir() bugs on Win32 have been fixed, and - tests added for them: - catdir('/', '../') -> '\\' (was '\..') - catdir('/', '..\\') -> '\\ (was '') - canonpath('\\../') -> '\\' (was '') - canonpath('\\..\\') -> '\\' (was '') - canonpath('/../') -> '\\' (was '\..') - canonpath('/..\\') -> '\\' (was '') - catdir('\\', 'foo') -> '\foo' (was '\\foo') - - - catpath($volume, $dirs, $file) on Mac OS now ignores any volume - that might be part of $dirs, enabling catpath($volume, - catdir(rootdir(), 'foo'), '') to work portably across platforms. - -File::Spec 0.85 Tue Jul 22 11:31 CDT 2003 - - A bug-fix release relative to 0.84. I've forked development into a - "stable" branch (this one) and a more aggressive branch (as yet - unreleased), with an eye toward getting the stable features in perl - 5.8.1. - - - File::Spec::Mac->case_tolerant() returned 0 when it should have - returned 1. - - - Many cases in File::Spec::Win32->abs2rel() were broken, because of - the way in which volumes were/weren't ignored. Unfortunately, part - of the regression tests were broken too. Now, if the $path - argument to abs2rel() is on a different volume than the $base - argument, the result will be an absolute path rather than the - broken relative path previous versions returned. - - - Fixed a problem in File::Spec::Win32->canonpath, which was turning - \../foo into "foo" rather than \foo - - - Greatly simplified the code in File::Spec::Unix->splitdir(). - -File::Spec 0.84_01 Fri Jul 11 16:14:29 CDT 2003 - - No actual code changes, just changes in other distribution files - - - Dependencies are now listed explicitly in the Makefile.PL and - Build.PL scripts, as well as in the META.yml file. - - - The t/abs2rel2abs.t test should now be more friendly about skipping - on platforms where it can't run properly. - -File::Spec 0.84 Wed Jul 9 22:21:23 CDT 2003 - - I (Ken)'ve taken the changes from bleadperl and created a new CPAN release - from them, since they're pretty important changes. The highlights, - from what I can tell, are listed here. - - - A huge number of changes to File::Spec::Mac in order to bring it in - line with the other platforms. This work was mostly/completely - done by Thomas Wegner. - - - The Epoc and Cygwin platforms are now supported. - - - Lots of generically-applicable documentation has been taken from - File::Spec::Unix and put in File::Spec. - - - A Build.PL has been provided for people who wish to install via - Module::Build. - - - Some spurious warnings and errors in the tests have been - eliminated. [Michael Schwern] - - - canonpath() on File::Spec::Unix now honors a //node-name at the - beginning of a path. - - - Cwd.pm wasn't being loaded properly on MacOS. [Chris Nandor] - - - Various POD fixups - - - Several testing patches for the Epoc and Cygwin platforms [Tels] - - - When running under taint mode and perl >= 5.8, all the tmpdir() - implementations now avoid returning a tainted path. - - - File::Spec::OS2 now implements canonpath(), splitpath(), - splitdir(), catpath(), abs2rel(), and rel2abs() directly rather - than inheriting them from File::Spec::Unix. - - - Added 'SYS:/temp' and 'C:/temp' to the list of possible tmpdir()s - on Win32. - - - catfile() on Win32 and VMS will now automatically call canonpath() - on its final argument. - - - canonpath() on Win32 now does a much more extensive cleanup of the - path. - - - abs2rel() on Win32 now defaults to using cwd() as the base of - relativity when no base is given. - - - abs2rel() on Win32 now explicitly ignores any volume component in - the $path argument. - - - canonpath() on VMS now does []foo ==> foo, and foo.000000] ==> foo]. - It also fixes a bug in multiple [000000.foo ==> [foo translations. - - - tmpdir() on VMS now uses 'sys$scratch:' instead of 'sys$scratch'. - - - abs2rel() on VMS now uses '000000' in both the path and the base. - -File::Spec 0.82 Wed Jun 28 11:24:05 EDT 2000 - - Mac.pm: file_name_is_absolute( '' ) now returns TRUE on all platforms - - Spec.pm: unbreak C<$VERSION = '0.xx'> to be C<$VERSION = 0.xx>, so - underscores can be used when I want to update CPAN without anyone - needing to update the perl repository. - - abs2rel, rel2abs doc tweaks - - VMS.pm: get $path =~ /\s/ checks from perl repository. - - Makefile.PL: added INSTALLDIRS => 'perl', since these are std. modules. - - Remove vestigial context prototypes from &rel2abs until some future - arrives where method prototypes are honored. |
