Changes for 0.18 Wed Dec 17 14:00:40 2008
=================================================
* Address #41412: User agent string contains uninterpolated
$VERSION.
* Use IPC::Cmd 0.42's supplied QUOTE constant, rather than
rolling our own
Changes for 0.16 Fri Oct 10 13:54:40 2008
=================================================
* Promote 0.15_04 to stable.
Changes for 0.15_04 Mon Sep 22 15:08:49 2008
=================================================
* Address: #37649: Feature request: Support lftp
File::Fetch now supports lftp, with one minor caveat: it uses
a temporary file to store the commands for lftp, as they are
multiline commands. Without this, we run into portability issues
with 'special' characters on various platforms, like ; and &.
Changes for 0.15_03 Sun Jul 13 15:56:41 2008
=================================================
* Add -q to curl, to inhibit the reading of .curlrc,
which may interfere with the options we pass ourselves.
This addresses #36902
Changes for 0.15_02 Sun May 18 13:42:30 2008
=================================================
* Address #35018: Treat HTTP 404 Message as fail with lynx
lynx now does a -head request first to make sure the file
exists before proceeding
Changes for 0.15_01 Sun Apr 6 13:55:36 2008
=================================================
* Address: #32755: File-Fetch tests cannot fail if
unable to connect to internet. Tests are now skipped
if it looks as the failure is due to a lacking network
connection.
* New IPC::Cmd (0.41) fixes an IPC::Open3 bug, which we
now rely on.
Changes for 0.14 Fri Dec 14 13:42:30 2007
=================================================
* Promote 0.13_04 to stable.
Changes for 0.13_04 Wed Nov 14 20:07:02 2007
=================================================
* VMS patches for file:// uris by John M.
Changes for 0.13_03 2007-11-04 21:32:40
=================================================
* Restore OS specific file:// URI behaviour. The
RFC's specify that the url definition is host OS
specific, so what a url means on one machine will
mean something different on another.
VMS is now treated according to RFC 1738
(http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html).
Changes for 0.13_02 Sun Nov 4 10:38:40 CET 2007
=================================================
* Apply a perl 5.5.x compatibility fix. Users with
perl 5.6.0 or higher do not need to upgrade.
Changes for 0.13_01 Sat Nov 3 18:55:10 CET 2007
=================================================
* Apply a modified version of dmq's patch to deal
properly with file:// URIs on Win32.
* Add test cases for Win32 file:// URIs
Changes for 0.12 Mon Oct 15 14:32:23 CEST 2007
=================================================
* Treat VMS like UNIX when dealing with file URIs
Changes for 0.10 Fri Jan 26 13:51:19 CET 2007
================================================
* Promote 0.09_02 to stable.
Changes for 0.09_02 Sun Jan 7 18:44:09 CET 2007
================================================
* The quotation as done in 0.09_01 doesn't play
nicely with Win32 and IPC::Run. IPC::Run is
therefor disabled during the fetch() call.
* Remove File::Fetch::Item as a class. All objects
are now plain File::Fetch objects. This has no
impact on user-end code, except code that checks
the class of objects.
* URI encoding is not always clear or trivial. Add
a FAQ entry about it.
* Add $ff->output_file as accessor, which is the
requested file, stripped from query parameters.
* Errors are now stored per object rather than
class wide.
Changes for 0.09_01 Wed Jan 3 17:17:31 CET 2007
================================================
* address: #23864: File:Fetch does not use quotation
marks while using wget:
* the handlers for lynx, wget, curl and rsync now
quote their URIs.
Changes for 0.08 Wed Jul 5 13:56:36 CEST 2006
================================================
* address: #18942: unproper handling of http errors
in external handlers:
* the wget handler, on a failed attempt, now
unlinks its outputfile
* the curl handler is updated to follow '302 moved'
and such like status messages
* lynx use is further discouraged, as it doesn't
communicate http status messages back to the caller
at all.
* address #11483: File::Fetch 0.07 cannot do an FTP
fetch on Win32. FTP fetching using Net::FTP should
now work properly on win32.
* update test suite so it runs safely under PERL_CORE
Changes for 0.07 Thu Dec 23 09:31:00 PST 2004
================================================
* Add $TIMEOUT to specify the network timeout
Changes for 0.06 Thu Dec 16 03:21:00 PST 2004

Changes for 0.03 Fri Jun 11 20:40:22 CEST 2004
=================================================

* Add better error handling
Changes for 0.02 Sat May 22 14:40:29 CEST 2004
