  • What's new in version 0.99:
    • Minor POD link fix.
  • What's new in version 0.98:
    • No changes. Production release after CPAN testers cleared.
  • What's new in version 0.97_01: All changes in this release are from perl 5 porters:
    • Update address for FSF in POD
    • z/OS: CPAN-ized ext/ and lib/
    • Missing ; in Tie::File
    • Typos in comments
    • BeOS specific Updates
    • turn the alarm off in the tests (was Re: maint @ 20617 (on VMS))
    • fix for VMS - last if $last_read_was_short
  • What's new in version 0.96:
    • Minor bug fixes only.
  • What's new in version 0.95:
    • Flushing out the deferred-write buffer is now done in a single pass, regardless of whether the records in the buffer are contiguous.
    • Various time and memory performance enhancements courtesy of Tels. (<tels@bloodgate.com>)
    • ->flock method now discards read cache and offsets table when successful.
    • Miscellaneous minor bugs fixes and test suite enhancements.
    • New ->offset method for recovering offset table data. (Tels again.)
  • What's new in version 0.93:
    • No significant changes. (Release was mainly to correct an error in one of the test files.)
  • What's new in version 0.92:
    • Bug fixes: Negative 'nrecs' argument to 'splice' is now handled correctly. Tie::File now behaves correctly even if you change $\.
    • More tests and (very) minor performance enhancements.
  • What's new in version 0.91:
    • Tie::File now correctly handles attempts to store undefined values in the array: they are silently converted to defined empty strings.
    • If the last record of the file is not properly terminated with the record terminator string, and if the file was opened for writing, Tie::File will silently repair it. Formerly, it would mangle the file.
    • More unit tests.
    • Performance enhancements.
  • What's new in version 0.90:
    • AUTODEFERMENT: Tie::File will now turn deferred writing on and off automatically when it thinks it would be good to do so. You may disable this feature by calling ->autodefer(0) or by supplying the 'autodefer => 0' option with 'tie'.
    • The read cache now uses a heap instead of an array. This yields much better performance for large caches.
    • Other performance improvements.
  • What's new in version 0.51:
    • Minor fixes in the test suite.
  • What's new in version 0.50:
    • DEFERRED WRITING: You may now use the ->defer method to request that changes to the array *not* be written to the file immediately. Changes will be written when the memory limit for deferred writes is exceeded, or when you invoke the ->flush method. You may discard pending writes with the ->discard method. You may set the limit of discarded data with the 'dw_size' option.
    • The DELETE method now returns the correct values.
  • What's new in version 0.20:
    • MAJOR INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: Records read from the tied array now have the record separator REMOVED by default. This is to provide do-what-I-meant behavior for expressions like
      • $tied[3] .= "more text";
    • Formerly, this would have appended "more text" *after* the newline character.
    • You may obtain the old behavior by supplying the 'autochomp => 0' option in the 'tie' call, or by invoking the new 'autochomp' accessor method.
    • Tests for this new feature.
