Changes for version 0.8 - 2008-10-17

  • Added the ability to control iptables execution model. The default is to use waitpid(), but other options are to use system() or popen().
  • Added the ability to introduce a configurable time delay between each iptables command.
  • Added the ability to use a function reference for the SIGCHLD signal handler.
  • Added the ability to configure the number of seconds used as the alarm timeout for iptables command execution in the waitpid() execution model.
  • Passed IPTables::ChainMgr option for execution model, configurable alarm timeouts, the SIGCHLD signal handler reference, and the configurable number of seconds for additional sleeps between iptables commands to the IPTables::Parse module.
  • Bugfix for SIGALRM handling to be more consistent with an example from the perlipc man page.
