Revision history for Perl extension Class::Colon.
0.02 Tue Oct 7 12:08:50 CDT 2003
- Changed the name of the fabricated class constructor from new to NEW
to comply with the uppercase name convetion. I promise not to
use lowercase names so users can use those for fields. They should
avoid ALLCAPS names, so I can use them for method names. new
was in violation of the convention. This has no effect on any
code, unless the caller was using NEW as a field name (and they
were warned not to).
- Added TODO file.
- Corrected documentation which stated that empty fields become
undef. They really become "".
- Made minor corrections to tests and the data they use.
- Added OBJECTIFY which takes a colon delimited string and returns
the corresponding object. This allows the caller to drive the input
loop.
- Made it easier to add new methods in the future.
- Changed the delimiter concept. It must now be a simple string.
This facilitates the output methods and seems more in the spirit
of this cheap little module.
- Added STRINGIFY so you can retrieve the object as a string with
the current delimiter.
- Added WRITE_FILE and WRITE_HANDLE so lists of objects can be
rewritten to the disk.
