NAME

Changes - List of significant changes to Yahoo::Search

Changes in 1.11.3

Depend on LWP version instead of individual module versions.
Bump sub-module versions to make them shorter to avoid float issues.

Changes in 1.11.2

Default XML to UTF-8 encoding if an explicit encoding isn't given.

Changes in 1.11.1

Fixed to return UTF-8 strings when using the default internal
    Yahoo::Search::XML parser, like it does when using the XML::Simple
    parser.  Added tests for same. RT#45029 RT#35213 RT#31618

Fixed entity parsing thanks to Bernt Budde. RT#32011

Added Region parameter thanks to Hendrik Weimer. RT#54591

Changed MaxCount to simply be advisory, so searches requesting more
  results aren't aborted by the module.

Converted to use Dist::Zilla for releases.

Added a note to the docs recording the fact that Jeffrey Friedl
    has placed the 1.10.13 code into the public domain (CC0).

Earlier Changes

1.10.13 Mar 20, 2007      jfriedl@yahoo.com
Had to add some fake VERSION lines to the non-main pm files to satisfy CPAN.

1.9.12 Mar 20, 2007      jfriedl@yahoo.com
Fixed AppId check to allow for new, longer AppIds. Mike Kabanoid actually reported
this to me two months ago, and I lamely forgot about it until now. Sorry!

1.8.11 Feb 23, 2007      jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------  
Changes per Yahoo for new API servers:
    search.yahooapis.com
    local.yahooapis.com

1.7.10 July 29, 2006     jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------  
Oops, had left in a spurious debugging message. Removed.

1.6.9  July 29, 2006     jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------  
Yahoo! yet again changed their XML in a way incompatible with
Yahoo::Search::XML. I can't really blame them, since their XML is quite
legal -- the problem is Yahoo::Search::XML.

I've updated Yahoo::Search::XML to handle the new XML, and updated
Yahoo::Search::Request to be a bit more graceful, reverting to
XML::Simple (if it exists) when Yahoo::Search::XML can't hanldle things.


1.5.8  March 2, 2006     jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------  
On a bad-request error, the error message returned in the XML is supplied
in $@, if available. (Otherwise, the HTTP status line message is
returned, as was the previous action.)

XML parser can now handle CDATA, and is more robust in general.

Fixed an XML parser bug WRT numeric entities (thanks to Ask Hansen, who
sent the report and fix in in November -- my bad for sitting on it so
long).



1.4.7  March 31, 2005     jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------
Added support for 'Terms' searches (reports which search terms in some
text are important), which Y! announced today.

Added 'Count' arg to 'Related' searches -- hadn't noticed that it
was supported by the backend.


1.3.6   March 24, 2005    jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------
Changed the 'all' value for Type to 'any' ('all' is still allowed, but
deprecated), as per changes Y! announced today.

Added 'Color' option to Image search (which I somehow forgot when it
was made available by Y! two weeks ago).

Added 'License' option to Doc search (which Y! announced today)


1.2.5   March 19, 2005    jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------

Added support for Y!Q contextual search (via the new 'Context' arg of a
Doc search). As part of this, have any request greater than a certain
size become a POST.


1.1.4   March 10, 2005    jfriedl@yahoo.com
-------------------------------------------

Added support for 'Lat' and 'Long' args to a 'Local' query.
See: http://developer.yahoo.net/blog/archives/2005/03/enhancements_to_1.html

No longer restrict a Language arg to a specific set of values -- let the
web services return an error if the language is not known. I made this
change because I suspect that the list of languages will be somewhat
dynamic, and I don't want people to have to install a new version of this
package just because Yahoo! added, say, Serbian to the list of languages.

Removed the prepended "ERROR " from all $@ values -- dunno why I had it
there in the first place.

Documented %Yahoo::Search::KnownLanguage (and added
%Yahoo::Search::KnownCountry).

Documented $Yahoo::Search::UseXmlSimple

Documented the PreRequestCallback argument

Added support for a 'Country' arg to a 'Doc' query.
