Changes for version 1.2.4.0 - 2010-12-19
- Changes contributed by Olly Betts
- Xapian exceptions were still being thrown as strings in Perl in some cases. Now all cases throw a subclass of Search::Xapian::Error. For compatibility with code which expects the previous behaviour these subclasses auto-stringify to the string which would have been thrown before.
- Make sure all Perl files have 'use strict;' and 'use warnings;'.
- Remove superfluous 'use Carp;' from generated error classes.
- t/document.t,t/index.t,t/search.t: Test TermIterator::get_termname().
- Makefile.PL now looks for CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS passed on the command line, and adds them to CCFLAGS in the generated Makefile.
- Changes contributed by Tim Brody
- New testcase t/10query.t.
- Changes contributed by David F. Skoll and Dave O'Neill
- Tell DynaLoader to load the module with RTLD_GLOBAL so exceptions still work when multiple Perl modules which link to xapian-core are loaded. (ticket#522)
