Changes for version 0.65 - 2007-06-25

  • KNOWN ISSUES IN THIS RELEASE:
    • Myspace just made changes that break send_message and post_comment. 0.65 was released because it fixes a change to the login form.
  • Fixed 0.64 release date in Changes file
  • Changed Myspace.pm to use "decoded_content" method of HTTP::Request instead of "content" method so that charsets are properly decoded when checking regexps, among other things. See RT issue #27453.
  • Added note in Myspace::Data about Class::DBI bug as noted in RT issue #27453
  • changed regex for is_logged_in to look for a logout URL rather than logout text (this should help for pages in languages other than English)
  • Updated debug statement in Message and Comment to use decoded_content for consistency.
  • Updated information in README: Prerequesites Config "Username" info (removed "#" that YAML isn't treating as a comment) Other misc fixes.
  • De-tabbed "Changes" and "README" files (converted tabs to 4 spaces).
  • is_private and is_invalid now return "undef" instead of "0" if an error is encountered.
  • Added example use to documentation for is_private and is_invalid.
  • Added max_get_attempts and max_post_attempts options and accessors to allow control over the number of times a certain page retrieval or form post is attempted.
  • Minor internal changes to centralize language handling for possible future internationalization.
  • Removed table info which may be MySQL-specific from mysql.txt
  • Updated docs for Myspace::FriendAdder and Myspace::Data
  • Changed WWW::FriendAdder::_sleep_now to report sleeps in integer seconds
  • Updated is_band regex
  • Applied fix from RT issue #27706 to fix login form.
