2002-03-01 Andreas J. Koenig <andreas.koenig@anima.de>
* lib/Devel/Symdump.pm: perl 5.6.1 introduced a package name of
"<none>" to work around a bug if somebody uses the deprecated
C<package> without an argument. I believe we need to ignore that
symbol completely so that at least we follow the lead of the B::
extensions. Thanks to Sreeji K Das /sreeji_k at yahoo.com/ for the
report.
2000-10-31 Andreas J. Koenig <andreas.koenig@anima.de>
* Typo fix: hashs --> hashes. Thanks to Sebastien Blondeel
<Sebastien.Blondeel@idealx.com> for the report.
2000-06-14 Andreas J. Koenig <andreas.koenig@anima.de>
* Fixed my email address in and made a few tiny editorial changes
to the manpage.
* Replaced Changes file with this ChangeLog file, appended the
full Changes file below.
* Fixed the test 6 in t/symdump.t. This test was broken by
perl-5.6.0 but not Devel::Symdump itself.
1997-05-16 Andreas Koenig
* Release 2.00
* Fixed typos in the manpage, added a test for tree, no functional
change, released 2.00.
1997-03-31 Andreas Koenig
* 1.99_01
* 1.99_01 is the designated 2.00.
* Between 1.20 and 1.23 the method as_HTML was introduced and a
few code cleanups happened.
* 2.00 switches implementation to use *ENTRY{XXX} internally. This
means that we can determine scalarness even for undefined scalars.
We don't expect unknowns anymore.
* 2.00 introduces the new ios() method which should replace the
older filehandles() and dirhandles() methods. For backwards
compatibility the old methods continue to work as they used to.
* 2.00 comes with isa_tree and inh_tree utility methods for
analysing the inheritance tree. Devel::Symdump objects may be used
to create snapshots, but their typical use would be as class
methods.
1995-08-16 Andreas Koenig
* 1.20
* test 7 of t/symdump.t was too capricious. In fact the test was
based on wrong assumptions about loaded packages in the perl
binary. Static perls and dynamic perls have different symbol
tables when they run thetests. So test 7 is gone.
* test 4 of t/symdump.t relied on $@ being set like in perl5.001m.
This might not be a correct assumption. So test 4 is replaced with
a dummy 'print ok' until the $@ problem is sorted out
1995-07-03 Andreas Koenig
* 1.19
* Added an as_string method.
* Rewrote the test scripts so they output standard test strings
"ok nnn". This is dangerous for new perl releases, but will help
me do get bug reports early.
* Renamed the exporting example package to Devel::Symdump::Export.
1995-05-29 Andreas Koenig
* 1.16
* Changed '${pack}::' and relatives back to "$pack\:\:" to make
the package "-w" safe. Deleted the debug statement in _doit()
after Gurusamy Sarathy fixed the bug in perl5.001, but left a
comment there.
* Changed the AUTHORS section to plain "Andreas & Tom".
* Added this Changes file :)
1995-05-28 Andreas Koenig
* 1.14
* After a considerable amount of mail exchange between Tom and me,
we now have a unknowns() method for all the rest in the symbol
table that we currently don't follow further. new() is renamed to
rnew() which stands for recursive new. new() now does not go into
recursion which becomes the default behaviour for people calling
directly Devel::Symdump->arrays etc.
* Added a Devel::Symdump::Exp package for Tom who wanted the
methods exported. Tom had tried to add Exporter to the package and
to export the undefined methods directly. Andreas didn't trust
this trick although it seemed to work fine. So they are still
considering if it can be done.
1995-05-27 Andreas Koenig
* 1.09
* Drops all prettyprint functionality and becomes a primitiv
package after some talk with Tom Christiansen and Gurusamy
Sarathy. Moreover, Dean Roehrich's additions to the perlbot
manpage gave me (Andreas) some hints about package globals which
now get a new dress within the object.
1995-05-xx Andreas Koenig
* 1.05
* First release of the formerly Devel::Debug called package.
